Absolute fantastic home with nature on your doorstep.

We visited Berg River Living with small children, but we felt safe all the time. The house is more beautiful than the pictures on the internet. The host is very friendly and went out of his way to make us feel at home. We appreciated all the personal touches throughout the home (e.g. shampoo, toothpaste, etc.). We enjoyed the coffee machine, and the pizza oven was a bonus. The rooms are all so spacious, and the beds were comfortable. We could not get enough of the breathtaking uninterrupted views, as well as the sparkling pool. We managed to go for a few walks along the beautiful coastline. We want to thank the host. We will definitely recommend your home to family and friends.

Lieflike kuier huis vir groep mense! Puik.

Ons het as familie daar gebly en dit was heerlik! Baie spasie vir almal en 'n lekker kuier huis vir 'n groter groep mense. Wat ons veral geniet het, was dat die kamers nie so naby mekaar was nie, en almal kon dus hul eie spasie geniet. En die pizza oond was 'n bonus vir ons.

Lovely holiday home for group of people! Great.

We stayed there as a family and it was wonderful! Plenty of space for everyone and a nice cozy home for a larger group of people. What we especially enjoyed was that the rooms were not so close to each other, so everyone could enjoy their own space. And the pizza oven was a bonus for us.

Ongelooflike huis met asemrowende uitsig.

Een van die beste plekke wat ek al by gebly het. Ons groep het klein kinders ingesluit, so die plek is reg vir enige ouderdomsgroep. Sal verseker die plek aanbeveel sonder twyfel. Die plek is netjies, gerieflik, gemaklik, met 'n ongelooflike uitsig.

Incredible house with breathtaking view.

One of the best places I have ever stayed at. Our group included small children, so the place is right for any age group. Would definitely recommend the place without a doubt. The place is neat, comfortable, comfortable, with an incredible view.

Ons was 'n groep van 9, ouderdomme tussen 13 en 72 wat 'n naweek by Berg River Living deurgebring het. Die huis is netjies en gerieflik met 'n hele paar onverwagte ekstras. Die uitsig is pragtig, so ook die natuur om jou wanneer jy 'n entjie stap. Dit is voorwaar 'n stukkie paradys waarheen ons definitief weer sal gaan.

Daar is soveel om jou mee besig te hou soos visvang, kanoevaart, stap, swem en die beste deel is om die mooi sonsondergange te kyk vanaf die stoep. Tot mooier as op die foto's.

We were a group of 9, ages 13 to 72 who spent a weekend at Berg River Living. The house is neat and comfortable with quite a few unexpected extras. The view is beautiful, as is the nature around you when you walk a little. It is truly a piece of paradise where we will definitely go again.

There is so much to keep you busy like fishing, canoeing, hiking, swimming and the best part is watching the beautiful sunsets from the veranda. Even more beautiful than in the photos.

Great property, stunning view.

Well appointed with almost everything we needed. Small details like providing shampoo, toothpaste, coffee, tea, milk, etc mean a lot! We were 10 adults, and for us, an additional fridge for drinks would have been nice, but we managed with the already large fridge that was there! The other thing we missed was an outside bin for the empties, but again, we made do with a black bag. The owner is fantastic! Very accommodating! He can be very proud of an incredibly stunning house with an exceptional view over the river and wetlands, especially at sunset. We will be back!

An unforgettable experience.

The breathtaking sunsets were the highlight of our stay. That along with the beautiful surroundings. Neil's home is clean and conveniently designed. We spent most of our days, in the pool and the big stoep, with uninterrupted views of the water, in which we enjoyed kayaking. Neil is an excellent host, and very accommodating. We will most definitely be back. Thank you Neil.

Fantastiese ligging, op die water en swembad 'n groot bonus.

Bootanker reg voor huis. Huis is ruim en het alles wat jy nodig het, plus ekstra bederfies. Neil is baie behulpsaam en kommunikeer goed. Die lang stoep met groot braai maak laataand kuier heerlik. Ons het veilig gevoel. Sal beslis weer gaan, lekker kaggels vir wintermaande en pizza-oond. Dankie Neil vir deel aan ander, dit is 'n stukkie paradys met sonsondergang.

Great location, on the water and pool a big bonus.

Boat anchor right in front of house. House is spacious and has everything you need, plus extra treats. Neil is very helpful and communicates well. The long porch with a large braai makes for a great late-night visit. We felt safe. Will definitely go again, nice fireplaces for winter months and pizza oven. Thanks Neil for sharing with others, it's a slice of paradise with sunset.

Braai en swem met die mooiste uitsig.

Die huis was mooi skoon en netjies, en toegerus met alles wat jy sal benodig. Dit is selfs mooier as op die foto's. Die eienaar was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam en het ons ingelig oor lekker aktiwiteite rondom ons. Ons het baie lekker gekuier en sal dit beslis aanbeveel.
