Delight in Darling
Strathnaver is a delightful B&B in one of the first Victorian cottages built in Darling.
We were warmly welcomed by our hostess Pat McKay and settled very comfortably into the cottage adjacent to her small house.
The room was comfortably furnished with a homely touch of two easy chairs and a full tea tray, including home made biscuits.
The breakfasts were delicious as Pat enjoys cooking and each morning we had something a little different to try.
Pat is a generous hostess. She gave us information about Darling and even managed to procure last-minute tickets for the "Voorkamer Fest", which we thoroughly enjoyed.

Dreaming in Darling
We were warmly welcomed to Strathnaver B&B by our hostess, Pat McKay. Pat's house is one of the earliest Victorian houses in Darling and our accommodation was in a garden cottage close to the main house. The bedroom was comfortably furnished and we appreciated the additional homely touches of two comfortable chairs and a full tea tray including home-made biscuits. The en suite shower was perfectly adequate. The cottage has a covered verandah where we could sit and watch the many birds in the delightful garden or just relax and read or talk to the three cats!
Breakfasts were a treat as Pat is a good cook, so each morning there was a different start to our day.
Pat gave us a lot of information about Darling and even managed to get us tickets to the "Voorkamerfest", which we thoroughly enjoyed.
Darling is very well placed for visits to the West Coast National Park, and there are wine estates and olives estates close by.
We arrived at Strathnaver as guests but said "Good-bye" to a friend.

Too many steps
Our Cottage was pleasant but the steps at the main entrance had no hand rail and were very difficult for my husband and myself who are elderly and not very steady on our feet. Our Hostess was quite sharp with us when we complained saying that she would not have taken our booking if she had known that we could not do stairs! We were shown an alternative entrance which was marginally better. Our hostess did give us a nice breakfast.
Establishment's response:
Mrs Carter is quite incorrect – there are railings for the steps going up to the main door. If steps were a problem, had she mentioned it previously I could have referred her to an establishment
that could have been more easily negotiated.

Stil en privaat
Aangename gasvrou Pat het ons dadelik laat tuisvoel. Stilte van die tuinomgewing was salig na 'n lang dag se reis. Baie warm gekry en het 'n goeie verkoeler gemis asook verkoelingsgeriewe. Heerlike ontbyt geniet!

Pat's Garden Room
Pat gave us a warm welcome, her garden room had everything one could need for a one night stay, the setting is quiet and peaceful, and her home cooked breakfast generous and delicious. Would stay again if coming that way. Thanks Pat.
