Baie lekka!

Wat 'n pragtige plek om te bly. Die tuin is pragtig en die huis is mooi met baie karakter. Sal dit aanbeveel vir enige persoon wat verblyf soek. Kevin het ons bederf met vars broodrolletjies, koekies, jogurt en nog meer. Kevin is 'n fantastiese gasheer. Dankie vir die lekker verblyf.

What a beautiful place to stay. The garden is beautiful and the house is beautiful with a lot of character. Would recommend to anyone looking for accommodation. Kevin treated us to fresh bread rolls, cookies, yogurt and more. Kevin is a fantastic host. Thank you for the nice stay.

Baie lekker gebly. Ons kom graag weer.

Bedlinne van goeie kwaliteit, pragtige dekor met die mooiste tuin. Goed ingerig en georganiseerd. Eienaar het soveel ekstra moeite gedoen en is baie gasvry. Privaat patio met Weber-braai. Onderdak parkering. Geleë in 'n stil en rustige woonbuurt.

Rustige omgewing. Pragtige tuin. Netjiese cottage.

Alles en nog meer. Van komplimentêre broodjies, botter en konfyt, tot vrugte, ontbyt pap, melk en joghurt. Plus koffie, tee en nog meer. Haardroër, peaceful sleep, ekstra tweepunt-plugs en selfs gaviscon tablette. Solar krag laat mens vergeet van beurtkrag. Die cottage is netjies, geleë in 'n pragtige tuin. Nie te ver van strand en ander besienswaardighede nie.

Quiet environment. Beautiful garden. Neat cottage.

Everything and more. From complimentary rolls, butter and jam, to fruit, breakfast porridge, milk and yoghurt. Plus coffee, tea and more. Hairdryer, peaceful sleep, extra two-point plugs and even gaviscon tablets. Solar power lets you forget about load shedding. The cottage is neat, located in a beautiful garden. Not too far from beach and other attractions.

Besonderse verblyf met alles wat nodig is.

Verblyf bied soveel meer as wat 'n mens aan gewoond is. Die gasheer is baie aangenaam en behulpsaam. The cottage is ook aangepas vir loadshedding. Sal definitief weer by the Garden Cottage bly.

Fantasiese ondervinding. Ek het nog nooit so 'n netjiese gastehuis gevind wat met soveel sorg ingerig is nie.

Die eienaar is "hands-on" en 'n fantastiese host. Daar is aan alles gedink. Jy ontvang 'n "welcome pack" met snacks. Daar is alle toerusting in die kombuis om jou verblyf gemaklik te maak, daar is selfs 'n tweede ketel vir die gasstoof beskikbaar indien die elektrisiteit uit is. Dit is 'n baie stil omgewing met 'n pragtige tuin en groot bome vir baie koelte. Dit was 'n aangename ondervinding, baie gerieflik vir 2 mense en definitief waarde vir geld.

Fantasy experience. I have never found such a neat guest house, furnished with so much care.

The owner is "hands-on" and a fantastic host. Everything was thought of. You receive a "welcome pack" with snacks. There is all equipment in the kitchen to make your stay comfortable, there is even a second boiler for the gas stove available if the electricity is out. It is a very quiet area with a beautiful garden and big trees for a lot of coolness. It was a pleasant experience, very comfortable for 2 people and definitely value for money.

Fantasties.

Ons het heerlik lekker daar gebly. Alles was bo verwagting, gerieflik en skoon, met die mooiste mooi tuin en heerlike, gemaklike kothuis. Die gasheer was vreeslik vriendelik en het ons tegemoed gekom in alles. Dit was net 'n plesier en ons sal weer daar inboek as ons terug gaan Port Alfred toe.

Baie "lekke" gebly!

Lieflike fasiliteite wat baie skoon, netjies, ruim en gerieflik is. Kevin is 'n baie vriendelike gasheer wat beslis sy gaste se belange en welstand eerste stel. Baie ekstra moeite is gedoen om ons gelukkig en tevrede te laat. Baie dankie vir al die lekker ekstras. Ons het dit baie geniet en sal Garden Cottage hoogs aanbeveel. Dit is vir seker ons no. 1.

This is for sure our no. 1.

'n Puik plek om te bly met baie gasvrye eienaars.

'n Baie oulike, netjiese en skoon blyplek waar 'n mens lekker rustig kan wees en goed kan ontspan. Bederf met baie lekker verversings.
