Mirabel Guest House - Solar power — Hotel in Ngwathe Local Municipality

Rose is a great hostess. Her website is well designed and informative. The guesthouse has a number of inside rooms with varying decor and configurations. Room 1 (ours for the weekend) has a double shower, not shown on website, and two single beds for a family. The room is comfortable, tastefully decorated, with good coffee and plunger. There are also two outside rooms and if you need more privacy perhaps these may be better, but do check out the configuration as this may not suite you. They look out onto the garden with a small splash pool. The garden and decor are an inspiration to anyone who would appreciate the variety of succulents. The little lapa just outside the breakfast area provides casual yet very comfortable seating to relax. Smokers, please don’t use this area, as it drifts into the breakfast area or Room 1 . And while you’re relaxing put on the old Croxley turntable which Rose has in the breakfast area and listen to a Rod Steward classic. The breakfasts are a good quality English breakfast.

Arrived early afternoon and was given keys. When we returned later there was no-one there except some other guests. Room 3 is cluttered with nowhere to put clothes or anything. It has a fridge but no a/c, fan or window. Only opening to the air is a door to the euphemistically so called patio. Dressing table was full of clutter - books, clogs! candles [but no matches].

I also wondered why there was a chunk missing from the ceiling.||In the morning we asked for breakfast and was told that they didn't serve breakfast and there was no sign of the owner at any time we were there.||I posted a review on another site after staying...

My sister made a booking on our behalf as a family of 12….Oh my word this was the best Christmas ever, the place is beautiful with antique finishing.. the pictures on their website do not do justice. Rose(owner) was very welcoming from the time we arrived, even gave us the whole kitchen(at an extra cost) to make our Christmas even more flexible. She understood the ask and gave us a home away from home. We had a good swim in the jacuzzi and we had plenty of places to stay when it was getting darker…oh my word each bedroom was unique..I stayed in the family room with my sister and our 2 kids which was amazing and the bathroom is to die for with double shower..huge bath and large space to spend with kids taking a shower.. we definitely coming back for mid holidays..thank you Rose..we appreciate...
