  "We are long time visitors to this gem, but the challenges of post lock-down recovery are evident in some maintenance issues. Hop the occupancy goes up so that the place can again be like we remember it, but still a nice stay and affordable rates."

• "What a gem"

  "We had the best weekend - if we weren't lounging around the pool, we went for a hike or a bite to eat in town. It is truly a great location and we had a comfortable stay. Moreblessings was also such a great help and kept the place clean and dishes washed which allowed us to enjoy our stay even more.From an architectural point of view, the house is very special, it could do with some maintenance, especially in the bathrooms, but there was nothing that bothered us or made the stay less fantastic. Will definitely be back!"

• "The view was amazing and the flowers incredible."

  "The house was very comfortable and offered everything we needed. The furniture (especially in the lounge) can do with an upgrade. The huge fireplace was magic and made the cold evenings very bearable. More Blessing was a silent fairy who kept everything cleared up without ever imposing - hold on to her, she is a keeper!"

  "Nice big house in the forest. Some heaters or electrical blankets would be nice. The two fireplaces a bonus for the cold nights. New couches would be nice, but otherwise nice pleasant big house"

  "Enjoyed sitting in deck chairs overlooking the Ebenezer dam below. Very pet friendly, comfortable home. Yes decor is dated, but you're here for the spectacular view! Will be back."

  "We had a lovely stay at Bifrost. The house is very comfortable and is in an idyllic location. There is lots to do in the area but it is also good to just relax in the house if you do not want to travel. Moreblessings was brilliant - very friendly and kept things clean and tidy without intruding on your privacy at all. Would stay again."

  "Although we had several days of cold, misty weather (over Christmas!), the excellent fireplace kept us warm. There was good service from the helper, Blessing. We enjoyed the good views and hiking opportunities."

• "The View"

  11 December 2017

  "The house has a huge amounts of wild bee hives, and bees everywhere on the outside into the walls and roof. I am allergic and got stung on the Friday, luckily I had meds with me, so I will not be back. The house is very tired it needs general maintenance, and some TLC. Tiles falling off the wall etc."

• "Awesome stay!"

  "The house is very comfortable and spacious, especially for 3 people! The view is magnificent and worth the drive up the gravel road - if you don't have a 4x4 or similiar vehicle take the first road up to the house for sure!Of the 5 bedrooms, only 3 are adequate and comfortable. The other 2 are diminutive, and are dark (no windows)and stuffy even for kids... More Blessings is awesome and she never encroached on our privacy, but was avaialble if we needed anything.The swimming pool is filled up with spring(?)water and has a black floor so there is no way of seeing to the bottom, we weren't brave enough to find out..The house is conveniently situarted about 10 minutes from Haenertsburg with a few restaurants and supermarket, a real treat!The table tennis table was a novelty and it was great to have a double garage.Thanks to Gregoire for all his help and prompt assistance, we'll be back some day!"

  "we had a great time at Bifrost . the house is very spacious and comfortable . the view from the house and the forrest surrounding the property is amazingly beautiful."

• "Excellent location, beautiful view!!!"

  "Best housekeeping ever!! Blessing does an excellent job at keeping the house clean. Her extra touches like flowers, doing the dishes before breakfast and always having a smile on her face really makes a difference. The venue is large, comfortable and well equipped for 6 adults and a few children. Road to venue is a little bumpy and rough in places. Centrally located and great view over the dam."

  "Bifrost is so well located and the scenery surrounding it is breath-taking. We really felt cosy and comfortable there with the lovely fires, etc. More blessings is a super host always so smiley and so unobtrusive. Our showers were always steaming hot and enjoyed by all. The lovely flowers she placed throughout the home was a lovely touch. She also kept us well stocked with wood for the fires which was much appreciated.We also found all the people of Haenertsburg very friendly. There is some maintenance that is needed however, wrt main shower always flooded the entire bathroom when we first used it so resorted to use only second bathroom after that. The microwave also does not heat up at all and sofas will need replacing very soon. But we still had a wonderful weekend at such a unique holiday location."

• "Very pleasant"

  05 January 2012

  "We had a very pleasant stay at Bifrost. Very peaceful, especially when you want to get away from it all. The house is very well equipped and More Blessings, the housekeeper, was extremely efficient and pleasant. Serita, the owner, kept in touch with us often to ensure we were happy with everything. The only thing we did mention is that the shower needs some brickwork to avoid flooding the bathroom and perhaps the drains needs to be cleared as well. We have informed Serita and she noted this. I would definitely stay there again!"
