Great holiday, great views.

Cottage was very comfortable, with everything you need, staff were really helpful. Even an ice machine for your use. Everything worked. The walk to the beach is steep. There is no load shedding here as it is on a hospital line. There is even solar and a generator, wifi also at the cottage, no TV, which is a plus. Locals are very friendly. Roads here are difficult, but you can do it in a sedan, but take it slow. The last 90 km are difficult but other roads are in very good condition all the way to Gauteng. We are going back there, good fishing places. The staff made us Xhosa bread which was spendid. To go over the river there is a ferry that has been in operation close to 100 years, take money with you as there is a charge for it. This takes you onto a massive beach.

Tussen lae koste behuising maar met pragtige uitsig op Umtatariviermond.

Die pad soontoe is net begaanbaar met 4x4. Daar is 'n mooi uitsig op die see. Dis reg langs die gemeenskaplike waterpunt, so daar is heeltyd mense wat kom en gaan. Daar is ook honde wat kom bedel vir kos. Die plek was regtig skoon gewees, maar kort onderhoud (bv die pleister val af van die muur af in die een kamer).

Between low cost housing but with a beautiful view of the Umtata River mouth.

The road there is only passable with 4x4. There is a nice view of the sea. It's right next to the communal water point, so there are people coming and going all the time. There are also dogs that come to beg for food. The place was really clean, but lacks maintenance (eg the plaster is falling off the wall in one room).

Wish we could stay there for a whole month!

We had a really peaceful relaxed time at the cottage. The local guide, Donald, is especially helpful and made the stay even more special. Only bad roads that made the driving long but still fun if you have 4x4. Very good and well equipped self-catering cottage.

Loved it.

Only negative is the directions. Never been in that part of the country and if it wasn't for the photo directions to guide us we might have had a hard time finding the cottage. Maybe a permanent road sign would be more helpful. Nice, clean, tranquil and the most beautiful view.
