51 guests' feedbackLovely stay, host helpful and friendly.
Spent a lovely long weekend there. Accommodation was beautiful and everything needed was there. Owners very friendly and helpful, really go the extra mile.
Had a wonderful stay. Will stay there again. Very neat, clean. Beautiful bedding. Private. Well equipped to have a wonderful visit. Heaters for winter, electric blankets, solar power for TV etc. An excellent and kind hostess. Would love to stay there again.
Had a great stay. Been calm. Tidy. Owner was very friendly.
It was the best stay. Centrally located and the host made so much effort to make us feel at home. I would recommend the place to anyone. Best value for money. High quality bedding. Nice outdoor area by the braai place. Everything was clean and tidy.
The stay was very nice. We wanted to stay longer. The place is really comfortable and spacious. The place, bedding and cutlery are of high quality, and the garden is beautiful.
This is just the place to go for a weekend. Nice braai area, with uninterrupted DStv selected channels. Enough cutlery and wonderful rooms. Will definitely book again for a golf weekend.
We really enjoyed the weekend, everything was neat and clean and in good condition. We really appreciated the extras, which are usually not provided. The milk in the fridge, biscuits, tea and coffee, good things to braai with and of course the back-up batteries during load shedding were a bonus.
The location is perfect, it's really close to everything. The place is spotlessly clean and tastefully furnished. It's very peaceful and you can relax wonderfully on the porch with the beautiful garden. The monkeys came to visit early in the morning, but were not troublesome at all. It's also very safe. We will definitely book there again in the future.
We had a great stay, will definitely stay there again. That was us twice.
We had a lovely stay with wonderful hosts that added the extra personal touch. We will definitely stay again.
Nicolien really went out of her way to make us comfortable, providing cots that we'd forgotten and making sure we were okay during an unexpected power outage. The cottage is very comfortable and spacious.
Maybe not the most beautiful view, but the owners' hospitality makes up for it. Tea, coffee and milk for the entire duration of the stay. Shampoo, body lotion, body wash, etc. in the bathroom. Wood and fire lighters at the braai. Provision for power outages. Numerous heaters for the cold. They go out of their way to make the stay nice and comfortable.
Is the perfect accommodation for travel.
Unbelievable hospitality, private and the cottage house is spacious and tidy with everything needed. Will definitely stay at At River Cottage again.
We had a great time and would love to visit again when we are in the area. The unit was spacious and tidy!
We were very warmly welcomed. Nicolien was in regular contact with us before arrival and made sure we got to the right place. The place is very beautiful with beautiful decorations inside the house. They have full DSTV. We also received a bag of charcoal and fire starters for barbecuing. The kitchen is also very well equipped. It is really very good value for money and we would highly recommend the guest house. 10 out of 10 for the good service.
The cottage is lovely and quiet. Thank you for the milk and rusks, much appreciated. The inverters were very welcome with all of the loadshedding we experienced. The toiletries in the bathroom were unexpected. We had a lovely time exploring Parys, eating in the restaurants, and doing the sunset Dome Tour.
We were warmly welcomed and immediately felt at home. Battery power during power outages was great. Only suggestions for improvements would be to replace bath with shower.
Our family of 4 had a wonderful stay here. It was clean, tidy and quiet. The place is beautifully equipped with everything you need. The hostess is friendly and helpful. We would stay here again and can comfortably recommend it.
Beautiful, friendly people and comfortable!
Very peaceful and quiet place, had a great time resting and visiting Paris. Would definitely recommend. Neat and clean with everything you need. A real home feeling.
The place wowed us. So peaceful to sit on the stoep and if you listen carefully you can hear the river in the background.
Will go back again.
Neat, clean and comfortable. Was very happy with gas heater and inverter for load shedding.
Friendly and very well equipped.
Grateful that At River Cottage has solar power and borehole water, as the town was without water and load shedding during the time that we were there. The beds were very comfortable with crisp, clean linen. We had a pleasant stay. The host was helpful and friendly.
A clean and well-kept cottage.
Would love to go back again.
Very neat place with everything one needs. Very nice porch.
We will definitely visit there again!
A nice getaway spot. This is for sure our new home in Paris. You can't help but relax, you have everything you need at your disposal, within walking distance of the main street and shops, the unit is very nice and tidy and the owner Nicolien makes you feel right at home.
Nicolien, your place is beautiful and fully equipped. We had a lovely stay and all the extras were a great surprise. The stoep with the braai is a lovely place to visit. Beds very comfortable, linen of good quality and wow, the towels are out of this world. We were received very kindly and nothing was too much trouble. Your garden is a delight and we will definitely come again.
Thank you, Nicolien for welcoming us with open arms into a warm, neat and tidy home. Thank you for all the added extra specialities and assistance and even the time we were without power due to cable theft. You really go above and beyond to make your guests as comfortable as possible. Thank you for just being gorgeously you ️.
Was very comfortable little cottage with all the necessary.
We really enjoyed our stay at At River Cottage. Thanks for the extra treat. You will see us again for sure.
Nicolien is a wonderful hostess who goes the extra mile.
At River Cottage has everything you need. Lovely sheets, enough space and good service. Thank you.
We had a very nice stay. Nicoleen's place is spotless and she is so hospitable. Walking distance from all the shops and right next to the river. We had a lovely weekend.
I would definitely recommend it, the extra effort made. There were biscuits as a gift, a liter of milk and water in the fridge. Full package DStv, WiFi. We had a very nice stay. Quiet and close to everything.
Parys is a busy little town. There is plenty to see and do, and only an hour away.
Very nice stay. Very spacious nice porch with nice braai. Had a great time, we will use it again.
It was our first time in Paris, if we go back we will just check in the place, won't even look for other places. If we could move in and stay permanently, that will happen too. Very cute place, feels like home. Thank you very much.
Neat rooms, cozy braai area and very private. Would recommend to anyone!
We were very happy with the spacious and clean accommodation, the host is very friendly and accommodating. The unit has all you need, bed is comfy and bed linen is top class. There are two covered outside areas, one has a braai. Very good value for money.
The perfect accommodation for a weekend away or even a longer stay. Spacious, neat and well equipped. Highly recommended.
See stars.
Fantastic, so delicious, so beautiful. We enjoyed it. There was everything we needed and more. Thank you very, very much.
Accommodation was clean, tidy and well appointed. Within walking distance of everything.
Enjoyed our weekends.
The entrance to the yard is difficult to find, especially in the dark. There are no indications anywhere that this is the river cottage. The entrance looks like a construction site and everywhere you have to walk carefully for holes and pipes that are in the way. There is no river view and there is some kind of green house in front of the only view to the lawn/garden. Drove back home earlier in the day because the dogs kept us awake. The power and water went off at least 2 times a day and then we had to call before it worked again. My sister and I are both heart transplant patients and I am sick because I am waiting for a second transplant. My husband is in Jan. passed away from COVID and we just wanted to get away from everything and everyone to rest properly. You only realize the place is completely surrounded by houses when you get there.
