    A light near the outside braai would be useful in order to see better when using it at night, and perhaps lampshades on the lights next to the beds as they are very bright when trying to read at night- neither things were terrible, just suggestions for the future.

    Pet friendly, lovely fenced in garden, lots of space! Easy access and super friendly host!

    I would have preferred a walk in shower in the en-suite bathroom of the main bedroom (there is a tub including a shower) but this is just a personal preference - both of the other two bathrooms have walk in showers!

    Luxurious self catering accommodation. Three bedrooms and three bathrooms made it perfect for our family of four. (Our adult children had their own bedrooms.)The panoramic view of the mountains is magnificent. Watch the sun rise over the mountains in the east and then set over the mountains in the west. An added advantage is that this accommodation is pet friendly.

    • Stayed 3 nights

    The 'British' bedroom did not have proper blackout curtains/blinds, which meant that there was a lot of light pollution in that room at night. This made it difficult to have complete and restful sleep. The bathroom in that room was so very tiny. Cute but uncomfortably small. Obviously making the best in a small and tricky space but would have been way too small for a larger person. The upstairs floor is not insulated/stable so every footstep can be heard from the rooms below.

    We liked the Atmosphere of the house, the eclectic decor and comfortable interior. All the beds had firm comfortable mattresses and the kitchen was well equipped. The outside area was well appointed and had super views.

    We had an amazing stay at The Red Door. The house very well fitted with everything you might need during your stay, quirky and stylish interior, very clean and each bedroom has its own bathroom. Very spacious and stunning views from the patios. Its located in a quiet street but close enough to walk to the town square.

    There is nothing negative to say about this home.

    Everything about The Red Door was exquisite. The home is beautiful, clean and spacious with amazing views. The home is thoughtfully equipped with everything you could need. The best equipped kitchen I've ever encountered in a self catering facility. It feels like a home and as if great care has been taken to ensure guests feel well taken care of and comfortable. We were all delighted to keep finding new and interesting artworks or decor in the house that we didn't notice at first. It's like a treasure trove of great taste, quirky pieces and a little bit of everything put together in the most tasteful way. The cleaning lady Elizabeth was very knowledgeable, very helpful about where to find things we needed in the town and very warm and welcoming. She is a gem!

    Short gravel road - not a problem and ok for any vehicle. Did not provide 1 nights fire wood as described - when asked not provided based on spring season in September. But it gets a slightly nippy, and always nice to make a fire when in holidays mood. PS was snowing heavy in the Drakensburg last weekend. But not deal breaking.

    Very cute and well furnished. Well equipped kitchen. Excellent gas weber. Very nice balconies with good views. A lot of art and decor. Good cleaning service by Elizabeth. Prompt messaging by owner, Paula. Good hot water with back up power. The kids loved it.
