It was nice in the town with a farm atmosphere.
The place is beautiful ─ a nice porch with easy chairs to lie down and watch the chickens grazing on the grass and coming knocking for something to snack on. The donkeys also came to say hello and it was a lovely pastime. The cottage itself was luxurious, clean and tidy with everything and more that one could need. We had a great barbecue with wood that was provided.

Lovely farm visit in the middle of town!
We spent four lovely days at Dolittle Cottages. The cottage is beautiful, spacious and excellently equipped. It really feels like you are staying on a farm in the middle of town. Next to the river (which came down just fine after the good rain on our arrival day) and with a view of the camp in which a sheep, three donkeys, and a few yard chickens! We felt very safe (thanks to the electrical security wiring and alarm system). The braai on the stoep was delicious and the car benefited from the shaded net parking. Although the two cottages were built next to each other, they still felt private. We cannot criticize the wonderful accommodation option in Swellendam. And will return without a doubt.

Exceptional and special.
We stayed in DoLittle cottage and it was clear that a lot of effort is put into ensuring that the cottage is neat, modern, clean and comfortable! We travel a lot, also abroad, and the cottage was really one of the most comfortable and beautiful self-catering units we have ever stayed in. The presence of the 2 donkeys, a sheep and some chickens made the experience even more special and I really enjoyed giving the donkeys the carrots, which are in the fridge for this purpose. Will definitely stay at DoLittle cottages again if we are in the Swellendam area again.

Place of accommodation very neat, peaceful environment and the cherry and had a good time feeding the donkeys and sheep.
Great stay, everything was perfect. If animals make you tick this is the place to be. Lovely to feed the donkeys and the sheep and as a bonus a chicken came to visit us every day. Just on that note, take lots of carrots with you, the donkeys have a big appetite and know how to ask, but it's lovely to feed them.

We had the most amazing experience at Dolittle Cottages and I mean really amazing! The owners really went out of their way to make sure everything was perfect. The house was incredibly beautiful, neat and clean and in the house there is absolutely everything you can think of, we lacked nothing. The owners definitely understand what one needs when away from home for a night, definitely value for money. The amount of detail is just too much to mention. You can literally just stop there with your clothes and something to eat, because the rest is all there. My son had a great time playing on the big green lawn and enjoyed the donkeys very much. We really go away a lot and stay in many places and your place undoubtedly gets 10 out of 10 from us. We will definitely see Dolittle Cottages again when we are in Swellendam.

Dolittle Cottages 's response
Thank you for your feedback. However, I would like to point out that you arrived an hour early, not 1 minute early and the cottage was not yet cleaned properly. The gas was full, however we did have a problem with the geyser and the technician was called in the following day to rectify the matter, our gas is checked constantly to ensure it is never empty. It is extremely sad that as you arrived in a very bad mood, you found it necessary to swear at me when I advised you at 1:05 that your cottage was still being cleaned and prepared for you. I do take comfort in the fact that you are the only guest to ever complain about any of our facilities and services. Our security includes each cottage having an alarm, electric fencing around our entire property, a security gate which can only be opened by remote control, as well as 24-hour cameras and armed response, more than that cannot be expected.

What you see is what you get - beautiful cottages and we will definitely stay there again on our next visit.
Beautiful and very comfortable stay in the Cottage, our small children were delighted with the animals and it's really child-friendly. In Swellendam there are very few child-friendly accommodations, so this was a plus. Owners are professional, friendly and helpful and we couldn't ask for more.
