Bidhuisie

Location was great. We expected off road parking. There is a driveway, but only a very small car will be able to use it. We parked on the street in the allocated parking spot. Everything was fine. There are panel heaters in both bedrooms and hot water bottles are provided, also other heater for the living area

That we had to park in the street.

Vehicle had to be parked outside - the path next to the house is too narrow for a vehicle - Also, the gate at the entrance was dark (after hours) - no lighting - and therefore a huge safety risk

Fabulous! Very well equipped, extremely comfortable. Lorna an excellent host. Just beautiful.

An extra loo or 2 bathrooms would be great but it suited our needs.

Plunge pool and nice patio

Bedroom windows couldn’t open and it was a very hot evening

Location was what we expected. Layout was good.

All was nice

The location, size, facilities, pool as well as Prince Albert and its quirkiness, just great. A pleasure to stay at the house. The Aircon was also welcome as well as a great level of space.

Perfect location. Lovely plunge pool and interesting historic building.

Requires some maintenance

It's equipped with everything we needed to relax at the pool and braai.

Nothing

The matress was extremely hard.

The property is impeccably maintained, offering a tranquil and picturesque setting that is perfect for relaxation. The accommodation was both comfortable and tastefully furnished, with every amenity thoughtfully provided. The attention to detail truly made our stay feel special. The surroundings were serene, allowing us to unwind after a long road. It is clear that a great deal of care and effort goes into maintaining this exceptional overnight destination.

Parking a problem with large vehicle.

The aircon was a treat. The unit was clean and neat.

No braaiwood either complimentary or to purchase.

Immaculate place, beautifully furnished. Lorna was awesome. Loved the rusks and fresh milk. The area was great too.

Awesome facilities, with everything you need. We didn't want to go home!!

The one bed is extremely firm and uncomfortable. But everything else was fantastic.

Lovely little house with lots of attention to detail. We loved the backyard, patio and pool.

We were not so fond of the numerous dead animals in the house, zebra skin etc. Car better stays outside, because the way to the potential backyard parking is very narrow. Also no WiFi.

Sweet and cosy house with all the basics covered and easy to get to the main sights in Prince Albert.

It was near everything and just overall nice. Laura was fantastic. So helpful and accommodating.

It would have been nice to have Wi-Fi. The fact that there is no TV was not a problem.

Beautifully decorated. Well kept cottage

Just cut the sipres tree and take away the flower Bed in the middle of the parking and guests can park off street.

Great location in town, owner friendly and provided useful local information.

N/A

Lovely little house and the small pool perfect for cold water immersion. Loved it.

The attention to detail was on point. Quality of furniture, linen, towels and furniture was excellent. Our host went the extra mile to organise us braai wood after she saw we were on motor bikes.

Nothing

A lovely spacious home with a stoep and a little plunge pool. Yummy rusks on arrival and fresh milk in the fridge was appreciated.

Everything was great.

Good location Nice swimming pool Well-equipped place Air-con helped.

Parking

Lorna is an absolute gem, she was warm and friendly and met us at the cottage, she took us through the house and recommended an amazing restaurant for supper. The cottage is gorgeous, it's super clean and spacious and the kitchen is so well equipped it was astonishing. The whole property is comfortable and felt like home from home, we loved it so much we have booked again for our next trip.

We loved everything

Lorna gave us a very warm welcome.

Enjoyed the peace and quiet and the pool to cool off in

Narrow driveway

Love the whole town and location!!!!. Lots of character and authenticity 😉 Loved the swimming pool and character of the karoo decor. Could have stayed a month. Well equipted. Will be back.

Parking in the street without windows from the house to see if verchile is safe. Maybe help with luggage would have helped since beggars hang around the vehicle while you unpack. I also suggest a keysafe with a combination for when you check out. Thieves entered the house just after we left and stole a couple of things. Could also easily have been out stuff.

Easy to find. Beautiful little ‘huisie’ in Prince Albert, and well equipped. Very clean and comfortable.

The driveway was a little narrow, however we managed to get it and out, with some guidance.

Very clean and facilities perfect

Clean and well equipped, comfortable. Typical of the properties in this area, unique and historical. Well situated

It was necessary to spray the rooms for mosquitos, this meant closing the doors. As the windows don't open it made the bedrooms very hot when the fans stopped due to load shedding. No Wi-Fi

Everything about the Bid Huisie was so cosy & homey.

There was nothing.

Ons het heerlik gebly in die goed toegeruste huis. Daar was genoeg spasie en gerief vir n lekker kuier vir 2 pare. Ons waardeer die beskuit en vriendelike ontvangs. Braaivleis op die stoep met n afkoel swembadjie was n bonus. Ons het besonder lekker geeet by die Restuarant net om die hoek.

Nothing

This is a beautiful gem in Prince Albert, we will definitely come again. The location of the property is great. The host was super helpful and gave us great recommendations on where to dine as well. Excellent value for money

Clean, safe and well positioned.

Being woken up at 6.30 by a local wanting to wash the car outside. Pool Pump out of order.

Very friendly host and well equipped clean cottage. We enjoyed our stay in this amazing little village. Excellent restaurants on the door step. We loved this place.

If I have to say: a blowdryer would have been handy! The host immediately helped us out on this one. Thank you!

Lovely cottage, good value for money. Well equipped. Loved Prince Albert. Will be back.

Not apicable

We received a very warm welcome by the host, with a lot of recommendations on where to go/what to do, which we really appreciated. Love the decor and the accommodation has everything you need. We had a lovely stay and will be back again!

Location, ambiance, value for money

Nothing

great location- great decor

?? hairdryer

Really cute little former church, with deck and pool out back.

Better garden furniture would be good! To enable guests to make full use of the big verandah. And the back door didn't lock.

Very warm welcome. Communication was excellent so we knew what to expect. Very comfortable accommodation and well decorated

Nothing comes to mind

great spacious and very clean house with nice pool. very well maintained. warm welcome

there were a lot of mosquitoes (and those seemed repellant resistant) during the night

The house is beautiful and the rooms are big. The swimming pool is very nice. The place is well located and walking distance to a few restaurants. There were a few annoying things that didn't make our stay as enjoyable as I thought it would be (see other section). I would go back if some improvements were made.

Load shedding was a BIG problem. I know it isn't their fault but it did impact the quality of our stay. It was 43 degrees outside during the day. The house got extremely hot. Then there was a 5.45 hour load shedding from 00:00 till 5:45am. It was IMPOSSIBLE to sleep because it was so hot in the rooms. The fan and the A/C would't work (because of lod shedding) but what we hated was the fact that the windows were sealed so we couldn't get the cooler air stream from the night. I should have definitely slept outside on a couch, it would have been better. There were SO MANY mosquitoes. We killed at least 10 per room. I feel like some mosquito nets would have been really helpful because it was impossible to sleep. Don't put your car in the backyard if you have a SUV. It's quite easy to get in but getting out is quite complicated.

very cute and quite authentic

dogs barking next door

The rooms, kitchen and living room, and the pool.

Parking was limited.

Facilities and very authentic

Favourite place to stay when visiting Prince Albert! Look no further - Bidhuisie has all the features of the perfect stay. Check-in and host communication was hassle free and extra accommodating. Will definitely be back (for a third time!).

Not one negative comment

No breakfast at site - all OK ,was all requirements , well done out and met our requirements for a one night stay over on route to CT and was able to squeeze my Prado down the very narrow driveway - it was however off road . Nice easy walk to dinner up the road at a crazy restaurant called the rude chef ( met her and she is will of bull but quite a character ) food and setting was must enjoyable would return and do recommend it ( ask for the ruse chef - quite a story ) I would stay again

not 1 item i could say that we did not enjoy or like , it was cold but warmer than Kuilsfontein . we did a quick try to O for olive - a must do tour very informative - dont do the other well know option they only do oil . Gaye Gurneys at the top of the road is also a must - lots of places to have breakfast and can walk to all options . Wife was also able to buy some wools at the Yarn shop so all happy . Must do the swartberg pass to Calitzdorp - and visit BoPlaas winery
