Had an awesome stay, amazing cottage.

We had an awesome stay. The cottage had all the facilities we needed, WiFi, back up power, and a gas stove. Ross was very helpful in making our stay excellent.

Baie lekker en gerieflik.

Ons het heerlik gebly, en daar was genoeg spasie vir ons Karoo-seuntjie om sy energie uit te kry. Ons gaan definitief weer van Houtkapperspoort Mountain Cottages gebruik maak.

Very nice and comfortable.

We had a wonderful stay, and there was enough space for our Karoo boy to release his energy. We will definitely use Houtkapperspoort Mountain Cottages again.

Netjies, goed toegerus. Pragtige omgewing. Goed geleë.

Ons het ons verblyf by Houtkapperspoort baie geniet. Die cottage was skoon en netjies en is baie goed toegerus. Daar is regtig alles wat 'n mens nodig het. Die estate is pragtig, met mooi uitsigte en pragtige tuine. Dit is goed geleë met baie besienswaardighede daar naby.

Onvergeetlike ervaring!

Wat 'n onvergeetlike naweek by een van die heel mooiste plekke in die skiereiland. Minder as 'n uur se ry van ons tuiste af in Melkbosstrand. Tog het dit vir ons gevoel asof ons iewers oorsee in die platteland is. Blyplek het meer as al ons verwagtings oortref. Só bly ons het dit ontdek. Sal beslis weer terugkom vir hierdie fantastiese wegbreekplek, volgende keer sommer met meer familie omdat daar só baie opsies is om van te kies.

Unforgettable experience!

What an unforgettable weekend at one of the most beautiful places in the peninsula. Less than an hour's drive from our home in Melkbosstrand. Yet it felt to us as if we were somewhere overseas in the countryside. Accommodation exceeded all our expectations. So glad we discovered it. Will definitely come back for this fantastic getaway, next time just with more family because there are so many options to choose from.

Comfortable stay with everything you need in a home.

We had a pleasant time staying at the poplar cottage, it was very comfortable and everything we needed was available to us. The manager, Ross was wonderful, he even responded to my questions of how to use certain things in the house via WhatsApp. It was very peaceful. We even took an afternoon walk around the estate and my child could enjoy watching the springbok up close. The only thing I would do differently would be come back in a warmer season to enjoy the pool.

Blue Gum Cottage was an absolute delight!

An oasis of calm after a busy day. Very comfortable and clean. Loved the animal visitors - a genet cat at night, a tame squirrel who came right up to the door, a guinea-fowl who also visited us every morning and evening. Sterling customer service also. From a business perspective, I really appreciated the excellent lighting in the cottage and the fast and reliable internet.

Heerlike plek met 'n pragtige uitsig. Ross se persoonlike belangstelling was die beste en alles is daar en goed toegerus. Ons kuier daar was net te kort.

Ons Namibiërs hou van braai en op die stoep is 'n braai wat uitkyk op die berge. Elke aand was dit heerlik en met tieners is die WiFi natuurlik 'n groot aanwins. Die hoofslaapkamer was natuurlik my vrou se gunsteling. Baie mooi en pragtige omgewing by dit alles.

Lovely place with a beautiful view. Ross's personal interest was the best and everything is there and well equipped. Our visit there was just too short.

We Namibians love to braai and there is a braai on the stoep that overlooks the mountains. Every night was lovely and with teenagers the WiFi is of course a great asset. The master bedroom was of course my wife's favorite. Very nice and beautiful environment with all this.

Hi Karin,

We are super glad that you loved your stay with us, and it sounds like you took full advantage of the scenery and facilities on offer.

Your 5-star review was very gratefully received, we love those!

A private braai on the patio with forest and mountain views whilst our Springbok stroll past, what's not to love?

We hope to see you again when you are next in the Mother City.
