    • The property was very accommodating with us having to change our dates and include our puppy in the updated travel plan. We were very impressed with the staff and their assistance in making our stay comfortable. The rooms also have easy access to the outside, which was a bonus for our furry family member. Having an affordable pub and restaurant onsite also added to a stress-free stay, among the other available facilities. Visiting the local market held at the property on Saturdays was also a highlight.

    Enok was very friendly and helped me even though I arrived very late and booked for the wrong date. The room was beautiful and clean and the bed and pillows were to die for.

    Absolutely NOTHING. I will definitely come again.

    The apartment was nice. Not so far from Hartenbos. Enoch welcomed us warmly

    The WiFi was very slow. Suggest to put the operating times of the restaurant in the room, mere the fact that it's outsourced.

    9VanPosted on: 1-6-2025

    Very modern facilities. There was an aircon unit in the bedroom that worked perfectly. Comfortable space. Staff was very friendly and assisted on a public holiday without any hassle.

    Silly season pricing for the unit was a bit steep for the size of the room with its benefits. Would prefer that they provide better packing space for clothes and more cutlery since there were only 2 wine glasses, 2 cups, and 2 spoons.

    Worst stay of my life

    We booked two rooms with showers but only got rooms with baths. Pictures of the rooms were very deceiving and not what I was expecting.Over the three days, we killed over 50 cockroaches that just kept on getting into our room. No other rooms were available. I requested from reception twice to help us sort it out, but it did not help much. Worst stay of my life. Will not recommend to anyone.

    Good position, great value, friendly staff.

    Add a second bedside table. Tidy up the room behind reception.

    The location is nice and out of the rush

    Bathrooms are old and very outdated It is up as a hotel but it onley has loose pub like restaurants more like a backpackers vibe to me

    The convenience of having a restaurant and bar on the premises.Just wasn't warned that the restaurant closes early on Sunday

    7DhuraiyahPosted on: 12-24-2024

    Staff, rooms, garden, location

    Pity the restaurant wasn't open. And although the staff offered to get us a braai grid, there was no crockery or cutlery in the room so we went out for supper.

    8WilsonPosted on: 7-28-2024

    Lovely place with fabulous staff, a gorgeous garden, comfortable beds and great views from the windows. The only thing which we were a little surprised by was that the braai was not our own exclusive braai and that there was no crockery or cutlery in the units. The staff said they were quite happy to organize same for us, however we thought it might be easier to eat out. Other than this, we loved our brief time at Brinkley's and will happily visit again.

    Very friendly staff, comfortable room, it has a swimming pool (a lifesaver in a heatwave), and there's a gorgeous cat called Lizzie.

    There was a group of people talking rather loudly outside my room. They did quieten down after I said I was trying to sleep, but it was awkward. Also, unfortunately there are regular power cuts in South Africa (they happen everywhere, which is not the fault of the hotel).

    The Bar and Restaurant

    Room... No proper toilet door . No Shower . No Counter space or vanity cupboard to put something on. Cupboard for clothes in terrible state!!

    9SusanPosted on: 1-8-2024

    Very friendly receptionist, and very convenient spot. We were just there over night.

    10UnknownPosted on: 12-31-2023

    Everything and more than you need in one location. Enjoyed sitting outside the restaurants and pubs, eating and drinking. Property caters for small children. Had a big Jumping castle with water, in addition to their very nice playground. A free ice cream cone on top of it all from Gerrie Pretorius himself. We enjoyed the pool, and braai facilities. The braai packs and paptert at the pub was exceptional. Friendly staff, that catered to every request we had. Giving us a safe parking for our trailers and bikes. Thank you for a lovely stay.

    The showers was a problem, to hot or to cold. Wi fi is also a problem. But it didn’t matter because we enjoyed our stay.

    Lovely atmosphere, helpful staff. The different amenities keep you busy too! Not too far away from the Klein Brak blue flag beach!

    9JohnPosted on: 12-22-2023

    Close to the Big 5 game farm for day Safari, wildlife in front of river with beautiful birds and 3 minutes drive to the blue flag beach. Hidden gem with lots of character and the fact that we could make a fire & braai / barbecue with the old Pub providing from wood to meat. Bought a lovely wine from their shop

    Fantastic, very clean rooms. Had a lovely gin at the quaint pub on premises with Leon Gropp live!
