Die Heks se Huis is well and truly a lovely getaway location if you're just looking for peace and quiet , whilst appreciating the lovely night sky filled with stars that Sutherland has to offer. The house we lived in was spacious and filled with all the amenities one would need and more. It was really a lovely experience , only pity was spending just the one night. But will be sure to return in future.
The host was very helpful. It is quite noisy late at night as it is very close to the main road. The facilities are very basic and the cottage is cold inside in the winter. More carpets will make a difference. Using the fireplace causes the cottage to smell like smoke and it is very unpleasant. The internet is good, so bring your own laptop to stream as there are no TV facilities in the cottages.
We were received by a very friendly and helpful lady. The rooms however fall far short. Very basic. Extremely poor lighting once the electricity returned. Seating is uncomfortable. Cement floors that could benefit with more rugs and carpets in such a cold place. It did not help that there was a power failure but no back up was in place. The fire smoked us out, so not good. No water by 9am (when we left) because of frozen pipes I pressume. I have lived in Dullstroom for years and we simply insulated our water pipes to resolve that problem. It generally feels as if no care goes into this place. As far as location is concerned Sutherland is so small absolutely anywhere is central.
