★★★★★ I was initially confused by being provided with 4 different pillows. When I asked Jane about it on checking out, she confirmed to me that this is done purposely so that guests can find the one theyre most comfortable with. Simply incredible levels of attention to detail! I love it.Beautiful views, beautiful cottage, beautiful roads, wonderful hosts. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

★★★★★ What a gem of a place to stay, the owners are divine adding lovely little touches like fresh milk and farm eggs in the fridge... we also forgot to bring cooking oil which they also so kindly lent us to make our breakfast. The cottages are gorgeously finished with underfloor heating and a homely fire place. And the bath tub was pure bliss! Thank you so much Colin, our second stay and we can't wait... Read more

★★★★★ The little extras go a long way! Layout & decor is great, everything you need is provided and exceeded our expectations.Built-in braai on verandah would be great due to wind in evening & mattress might need replacing soon.Would definitely recommend and visit again - great weekend getaway!
