Fantastic cottage, warm and friendly hosts - would highly recommend!

Cob Cottage was a fantastic stay - wonderful, warm and friendly hosts, spotlessly clean and very well-equipped, in a lovely, quiet environment. We had a great time and would highly recommend it to anyone.

Het baie lekker gebly.

Die woonstel is baie groot en pragtig. Dit het ons verwagting oortref en die eienaars is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ons reis na Port Alfred was uitdagend. Ons het baie laat daar aangekom na inkloktyd, maar die eienaars was baie tegemoetkomend en het gewag om ons te ontvang. Net jammer dat die tyd so kort was en ons nie langer kon bly nie. Ek sal Cob Cottage definitief aanbeveel.

Had a great stay.

The apartment is very big and beautiful. It exceeded our expectations and the owners are very friendly and helpful. Our trip to Port Alfred was challenging. We got there very late after check-in time, but the owners were very accommodating and waited to receive us. Just a pity that the time was so short and we could not stay longer. I would definitely recommend Cob Cottage.

Wonderlike en baie aangenaam. Uitstekend!

Cob Cottage is 'n baie gerieflike en uiters goed toegeruste kothuis wat werklik gerieflik voorsiening maak vir 4 mense. Die eenheid is baie netjies, veilig en sentraal geleë in Port Alfred. Die eienaars, Colin en Cheryl is wonderlike mense wat altyd hulle gaste se welstand en tevredenheid eerste stel. Hulle het ons baie tuis laat voel en baie moeite gedoen om ons kuiertjie uitsonderlik lekker te maak. Hulle is fantastiese mense en verstaan die konsep van gasvryheid baie goed. Heerlik gekuier. Beslis een van die heel bestes in Port Alfred. Ons beveel die plek aan en sal weer daar gaan kuier. Doen so voort Colin en Cheryl!

They made us feel very much at home and made a lot of effort to make our visit exceptionally enjoyable. They are fantastic people and understand the concept of hospitality very well. Had a great time. Definitely one of the very best in Port Alfred. We recommend the place and will visit again. Keep it up Colin and Cheryl!

Alles wat jy nodig het en nog meer.

Met ons aankoms was Cheryl onmiddellik by die hek om ons te verwelkom, selfs die hek oopgemaak. Ons is hartlik ontvang. Cob Cottage het alles wat nodig is en nog meer. Dit is skoon, mooi en netjies en in 'n rustige stil omgewing! Ons het baie tuis gevoel. Ek kan dit definitief aanbeveel en sal self weer daar wil tuisgaan. My dogter het haar ring iewers verloor deur die dag en Cheryl het oral daarna help soek, selfs 'n dag later nog gekyk en laat weet dat sy dit ongelukkig nie kon vind nie! Baie dankie!

Everything you need and more.

Upon our arrival, Cheryl was immediately at the gate to welcome us, even opening the gate. We were warmly received. Cob Cottage has everything needed and more. It is clean, nice and tidy and in a peaceful quiet environment! We felt very much at home. I can definitely recommend it and would like to stay there again myself. My daughter lost her ring somewhere during the day and Cheryl helped look for it everywhere, even checked a day later and let me know that unfortunately she couldn't find it! Thank you very much!

Uitstekende verblyf teen baie redelike koste per nag.

Baie goed toegeruste, gerieflike, akkommodasie in baie meer as net 'n kothuis. Kan 4 mense gemaklik slaap en het alles wat nodig is (goed toegeruste kombuis, sitkamer, eetkamer ens.) vir 'n oornag of vakansie in Port Alfred. Nie by die strand of marina nie maar in Port Alfred is alles naby! Sal definitief weer van hierdie gastehuis gebruik maak.

Not at the beach or marina but in Port Alfred everything is close! Will definitely use this guest house again.

'n Wow plek om te bly.

Verby die nou ingang kom jy by 'n baie netjiese cottage wat alles bied wat jy nodig het. Baie gasvrye eienaars wat jou dadelik laat welkom voel en hulle gaan uit hul pad om te help. Die sitkamer het net die nodigste en is 'n lekker kuier plek wat uitloop op 'n stoepie by die braai. Kamers is netjies en beddens is gemaklik. Ek sal vir seker elke keer as ek in daardie geweste kom, daar bly.

A wow place to stay.

Past the narrow entrance you come to a very neat cottage that offers everything you need. Very hospitable owners who make you feel welcome and go out of their way to help. The lounge only has the necessities and is a nice place to relax and or you can unwind on the patio at the braai. Rooms are neat and beds are comfortable. I will stay there every time I visit the region.
