24 guests' feedbackMy colleague and I have stayed at Tepping Stones several times on our trips from Cape Town to Mount Frere and back. We always book there as the environment is very welcoming and relaxed, and the rooms are clean. Exactly what we need after a long day on the road.
Excellent stay and value. The hosts were very friendly and welcoming. They really made us feel at home. Recommended.
My stay at Stepping Stones was amazing. I had my own privacy, but the hosts made sure I am comfortable at all times.
A comfortable room with an en-suite bathroom. A small separate kitchenette with all utensils required is a bonus. A safe place to stay in a lovely small town. Highly recommended.
The hosts were so welcoming and helped me out with an issue I had. Enjoyed my stay here, very nice to have a kitchen and secure parking.
We thank God for the place.
Very friendly efficient service.
Accommodation was comfortable and within easy reach of town. It felt safe and the hosts were friendly and knowledgeable about the area.
The room had a heater. The host was nice. Thank you.
Would recommend and stay there again myself.
Sleeping facilities inside really neat, but the yard etc. really needs attention.
Great value for money as they offer you with exactly what you need.
The owner, David Hood, was helpful and offered us an alternative to the room booked as it had a bigger bathroom. There is a communal kitchen, but it is sparsely equipped and we elected not to cook there. (Not that there is any great choice of eateries in Tarkastad!) We got the impression that the Hoods are starting out on this venture and may still be learning the ropes. We only saw David when we arrived (and when he brought us a broom to sweep out the room). There were some thoughtful touches (rusks & milk at the coffee station & chocolates on the pillow), and the bed was very comfortable, but the room was quite spartan. The establishment is right opposite the co-op in town and, at times, quite noisy. I don't think we would return.
The room is wonderfully large and has all the facilities needed, Dave and his family are extremely friendly and helpful.
The owners are friendly and helpful. What can be said against the accommodation in my opinion is the condition of the town itself. The lack lies at the door of the municipality. The place is unsightly and appears unsafe for a visitor, both during the day and at night.
Room was clean and functional. Could do with a TV. Owners really friendly and helpful.
Very neat and clean and wonderfully quiet.
Very accommodating, friendly and safe.
We were spoiled with biscuits, soft drinks and later even apricots from their garden. We stayed there for 6 nights and the spacious room and bathroom were very nice to have.
The place is quiet cosy .
Slept well in a relaxing atmosphere. Everything works but not perfectly. Good, safe place to visit.
Tarkastad on its own does not offer much and this was our first visit to Tarkastad. We were there for a wedding! We were pleasantly surprised with the very nice accommodation and friendly people! Room was very neat and breakfast delicious!
Rooms and beds clean, comfortable and warm. Dining room a very handy eating place with all that is necessary. Rondavel shower needs attention and tree branches on roof should be cut off to avoid noise from the wind at night.
