    We arrived and our room was ready, even though we were early. It was a cool, comfortable room with everything we needed for our adventure bike trip. We met up with the hosts and they showed us all the things to do in the area. Amazing scent of the yesterday, today and tomorrow flowing through the garden. It was peaceful and quiet.

    A few shelves or a cupboard for clothes would be a good idea

    Excellent location. We also really appreciated the room upgrade. Blue Shutter is well looked after and although it's just a road up from the main town- its quiet and peaceful.

    We didn’t get to experience the whole place as there was a private function in the main house, however Charmaine was kind enough to communicate that to us before we arrived. The room we got was beautiful and the bed very comfortable however, I was not comfortable with the toilet/ bathroom that was literally by the bed side with no wall separating the bathroom/ toilet and the bedroom. I’d prefer a different room next time.

    The location- The guest house is easily accessible and close to a lot of amenities. The guest house- The place was very clean and aesthetically pleasing, the pictures honestly don’t do it justice. The host- Our host Charmaine is a very good host who made us feel right at home. She also recommended some of the local places we can try in the area which we all thoroughly enjoyed.

    We had a wonderful quiet stay but I am afraid that it could get noisy when all the rooms are booked. We only had one other couple staying and we could hear them around the house even when they tried to be as quiet as possible.

    Rooms are luxurious and tastefully decorated and feel like a five star hotel room. All amenities are provided like an in room coffee station even bottled water, a cooldrink and a chocolate. There is a pool and a gym on the property. It’s located on a quiet street, walking distance from the main street where all the shops and restaurants are. We were welcomed by the friendly owners who communicated with us throughout the time from booking and aftercare. We had a great stay and will definitely book here again.

    That we couldn't stay longer.

    We loved our stay at The Blue Shutter. Charmaine, our friendly host, communicated really well and was very welcoming. The rooms are sumptiously furnished. Our bathroom was amazing with a big shower and lots of space. We appreciated all the small touches hat made us feel welcome like the heated towel rail, the water and drinks in the fridge. Also loved the beatifully furnished spacious shared spaces.

    The only thing I did not like was having to leave. I enjoyed every moment of my stay.

    Our stay was nothing short of amazing! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and kindness by the wonderful hosts, who went above and beyond to make us feel at home. The rooms were beautifully designed, with a perfect blend of aesthetics and comfort. The cleanliness of the entire property, including the well-maintained pool, was truly impressive. One of the highlights of our stay was the peaceful and serene natural surroundings. Waking up to the sounds of nature, going for a walk/run and enjoying the fresh air was an absolute delight. It’s the perfect place to relax, unwind, and escape the hustle of everyday life. We can’t wait to visit again!

    Honestly, there were no drawbacks.

    The house is superbly located, in the center of Haenertsburg. Hosts responsive, communicative and helpful. The property itself is very clean, designed in a mindful way, elegant. We liked it very much. You will find everything you need there; private bathroom, fully equipped kitchen, lounge with TV and tea/coffee facilities, swimming pool, braai area, parking and even company of wonderful ibis birds that love to stroll in the garden. We will definitely be coming back, when visiting Haenertsburg again.
