18 guests' feedbackThe staff were so friendly and accommodating. The snow created many challenges, but the team handled it all so well. We will definitely be back.
We visited the weekend that KZN experienced severe and unseasonal snowfall. The staff went above and beyond: the generator was turned on, a staff member provided breakfast from her own home, the road in was cleared and our vehicle was towed out. We would definitely return in better weather conditions!
We arrived in the mist and left in the mist. What a beautiful cottage. The grounds were immaculate and the cottage had everything we needed and more. I would definitely recommend it.
The location of the cottages and its proximity to the hotel was awesome. The lake was lovely and all of the staff were very helpful and friendly.
Beautiful cottage, children enjoyed the open, green lawns.
It was quiet and peaceful. Loved our stay.
Very nice. Enjoyed it.
Pleasant accommodation. Beautiful setting. Would have liked a fan for the room to help with the mosquitoes.
No View. No toilet paper. Hair drier not getting hot. Dstv not working. Sliding door needs maintenance. Directions need attention. Signage to heron unit could be better. Security guard not helpful at all. False advertising. No mirror in the bathroom.
Value for money considering it included breakfast but since it's self-catering, it was just easier to make our own especially because breakfast isn't on-site - it's a 10 m drive (not too far)! The brown water was a huge issue!
Please may they fix the road to the Springholm Cottages.
Cottages, dam and surroundings are a little tired and need attention. Some basic essentials lacking. As a long-time fly fisherman question the "trophy fish" claim. Didn't see a rise or fish in two full days there and half of the dam was full of weeds. Jetties, wooden gangplanks and wooden verandahs are in a bad state. Not a good fishing spot.
The photos were taken a long time ago and/or manipulated. The cottage is very old and not at all luxurious as presented in the photos. There is also no fireplace as advertised. The staff is helpful, but the unit is not worth the price. There also appear to be communication gaps regarding B&B terms, although the hotel honored the reservation as such, they stated that the price actually did not include breakfast. Which of course would have affected the value for money even more.
Been to the place may times before, and going back again. Love it. tranquility, the people, the food. Just love it.
The breakfast at Brahman cafe was really great and so was the dinner. My friend and I absolutely enjoyed our stay! We will be back.
The place is wonderful and I would definitely visit again, however there is some maintenance required. Some of the lights don't work, one of the fans didn't switch on and some locks were a bit stuck. It just needs some TLC. I also struggled to get hold of anyone to assist with these issues.
We never had water on-site the day of an important wedding due to bad maintenance (tanks were empty). Not ideal, but they managed to fix it half an hour before we had to leave.
What you see on the website and what you get on arrival is night and day. The units are beautiful and neat but we expect a house on the dam and upon arrival we get a room that has no dam view at all. It's not what we signed up for and it's not what we paid for.
