It was raining cats and dogs and walking into reception with the fire burning was quite enjoyable. Reception was a pleasure and seemless. Rooms clean and well appointed. Even with load-shedding the essentials were working and the Grill Room gave excellent meals including breakfast. The only "question" I have is why breakfast only starts at 8. Does result in coming late at the office.

Floating in Paarl
Our stay was excellent as always but the reason why I have two points marked with a shortfall is that due to the rain our room (27) had a leak in the corner which soiled the carpet. I know it rained heavily but its still a problem I decided to report because it can cause mildew to form and the carpet destroyed.

There is no attention to detail and standards are not kept across the board. This could be an amazing place, but until someone cracks the whip this lovely place will be a bit disappointing. The main redeeming feature is location, it is stunning there.

Overall very happy!
Overall we where very happy with the friendliness of the staff and how beautiful the Estate was. Just want to give some advice to the estate, the room that we stayed in, all the doors and extractor fan in the bathroom were very squeaky and noisy and needed some oil.

Relaxing stay at Val De Charron
Accommodation good. There are two restaurants. The Italian restaurant terrible. Service was bad and food really not good. At the other restaurant the service and food was excellent.

Val de Charron
Found the Superior Double rooms uninspiring. Old carpets on en-suite shower floor. Diluted Shampoo in showers. Aircon didnt work. Upgraded to 5 star room, as no other rooms available and paid for it. Then had no internet, no working phone so still had to walk up to order breakfast at main bar. Service was slow and prices are steep and hygiene is questionable. The venue and the surrounds are very tidy and the area is very beautiful. Its a pity that the continental breakfast was the same every day, no variety, but was good. The stay was not enjoyable and we will not stay at the guesthouse again.

Feedback
They couldn't find the booking from Hotels.com at first and once it was clarified, we got a room with no view or shall I rather say a view to the staff quarters. It wasn't what I envisioned from your website.
