79 guests' feedbackExtremely neat and clean. Located close to restaurants and the Uilhuis.
We had a nice rest at the accommodation. Well situated for the Sibling stoep tasting we attended.
Our 4th stay here. Enjoyable to walk around in town, as it is very central.
Thanks to Ulrich and Magriet's warm welcome. The house was super neat. Well equipped. Nice treat with coffee, tea and biscuits. Well located. Walking distance to everything.
We were there in New Bethesda for the stoep tasting weekend and the town was very busy. The accommodation is centrally located and tidy. The room was clean and tastefully furnished.
We had a very nice stay. It's a really cute place, clean and tidy. Friendly and hospitable owners. Would recommend the stay with a clear heart.
Good value for money!
Country cottages really went out of their way to ensure that our staying experience was good, even through the town's water problems and loadshedding they went the extra mile and offered alternative solutions. Thank you for the very good experience.
A very cold night was made comfortable with warm blankets, heater and coffee. Neat facilities with everything you need.
Very neat. Cute place. We had a very nice stay.
Everything clean and tidy.
Well located.
Very cute accommodation, tasteful decor and everything you need for a few nights' stay. Private with braai on the stoep. Everything is within walking distance. There was milk and water in the fridge for us, and also soft drinks, beer and wine for which you can pay in cash. Friendly welcome! Would definitely recommend for a getaway weekend.
Only problem with phone signal and no WiFi.
Would recommend for sure! Outstanding.
An interesting place off the beaten track.
Everything you need for self-catering is available! Lovely, comfortable accommodation, extremely clean and tidy, owners very friendly and caring. Had a lovely stay here and can highly recommend it - for 2 or more (family). Private, and walking distance to everything in town. Absolute value for money and well equipped!
I enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and safety of van place. Even the people's kindness and trust in you was something to know you were going to enjoy your stay. Visiting places was just walking distance. Would recommend our San Koi guide, Henry, to the Gamoro post. Really made it informative and interesting for us. And we also now know more about the fossils. Thank you for a really relaxing stay with you.
Everything was perfect, friendly host, good location, really no complaints. Will definitely stay there again.
Very nice and clean overnight. Friendly people.
I got my parents Christmas accommodation as a present in New Bethesda. With Covid we had to move out all the time and Heinrich was so accommodating. My dad passed away 5 weeks ago and then took mum to Nieu-Bethesda on the way back to JHB. We spent a wonderful few days there. Lovely little place with everything you could need. Ulrich and Martha were lovely and made sure everything was in order for us.
Modern, clean and tidy units. Centrally located.
They pay attention to detail and Covid regulations are well followed.
We felt welcomed and they really accommodated our needs as we had a trailer and a bike that needed a safe space. Lovely rooms and definitely would go back.
Perfectly located. Homely and neat. Very friendly service. Fully fitted out kitchen. Everything you need for a braai. Small extras that we did not even bargain on. An absolute value for money!
I will definitely be going back there in the future. The unit is very well equipped with all essentials. Warm bedding too with extra blankets for those sub zero nights. The units are very centrally situated and are walking distance from everything. The gate is locked at all times so vehicles and trailers are safe too.
Together with the atmosphere of New Bethesda, our accommodation was a wonderful experience. Location in the town center so you can walk everywhere. There is everything one needs to stay comfortably. Was very grateful for the mini-bar at our disposal.
People were all friendly and hospitable. History of Nieu-Betesda, restaurants' contact numbers, etc. was all contained in a book in our cottage which was of great value. We could really walk everywhere we wanted to be, the lack of street lights was an experience for children. There is a lot to see and we will stay there longer next time! We slept so well that the next morning we hit the road much later than planned. Really recommend, place where you can really switch off.
Donkey ride with a well-informed guide, Jakob. Delicious restaurant with personal attention to each individual dish, delicious places to visit. Beautiful paddock.
When it is very hot as we experienced it the roof fan and fan was not enough, still got very hot. Air conditioner would have helped a lot.
Very comfortable place to stay, neat and clean, lovely porch to relax in the evening.
A spacious room with everything needed for self-catering. Nice braai place on the porch. Very friendly reception.
Was able to share first-hand information with guides at the Owl House and the Kitching trail.
Good value for money.
The place is safe and the people are friendly. You worry about nothing. You just have to keep calm. Thank you.
We decided at the last minute to sleep over in New Bethesda and thought it would be difficult to get a place for a Saturday night, but they accommodated us right away. The unit was neat and clean with all the necessary facilities. Sat on the porch till late in the evening drinking wine and enjoying the tranquility of the village.
Centrally located. Would stay there again anytime.
Very neat and quiet. Everything within walking distance of accommodation. Recommend it for sure. Very nice stay.
The accommodation was very nice and service was excellent!
The place is safe, and has everything we need. It is centrally located and close to everything one wanted to see and do.
Wonderful accommodation in Nieu Bethesda. Clean and comfortable with everything you need. Small touches made all the difference. Did not notice the cold weather outside as we were warm and cosy. Awesome shower! Highly recommend.
Was kindly received. Would recommend them anytime.
Very basic accommodation, but clean and the hot water shower is awesome! The best part is its proximity to the Owl House, Kitching's Fossil Centre and the Arts Centre! Everything is within walking distance! We loved our stay here and we will definitely use it again.
Everything we needed was provided. The unit was spotless and tidy. Country Cottages is centrally located and we were able to explore the town on foot.
It was more than we expected. We didn't lack a single thing. We felt safe and it was particularly nice. Country Cottages are definitely the best accommodation.
Even in the most unimaginable places one finds jewels. It was truly a wonderful experience to not only experience the hospitality of the owners, but also to get value for money. The web photos do not do justice to the reality - you really get more. We would definitely recommend the place.
A pleasant surprise - all the 'basics' were great. Extra attention given to make the overnight stay a wonderful experience. Enjoyed every moment, will stay longer next time.
See stars.
This newly built unit is well equipped (with DStv too) and so spacious. It is centrally located. What was very convenient, was the items that were available on an honesty basis, as well as the milk in the fridge. So one had something to drink on arrival. I had a good stay and would definitely stay there again.
Had a great time and slept the double bed was very pleasant will definitely recommend to family and friends.
We regretted it that we only slept over for one night . It is a beautiful unit, clean and tidy and very well equipped. Walking distance from all the attractions.
Beautiful place. We could see that a lot of love had been put into the preparation of the place! Heinrich was very helpful with the problem with our vehicle.
We had a great stay in the country cottages.
Everything was in place, neat and clean.
Had a great stay. The accommodation is very centrally located and you can walk wherever you want to be in the summer.
It was lovely to sleep there, everything is new and clean.
Safe, comfortable accommodation. Very friendly owner. Made extra effort to get us access to attractions! Thank you very much. Will definitely use the service again.
Comfortable living unit, but could do with a roof fan against the heat and mosquitoes.
A lovely place that was just right for us and our daughter. We had specifically wanted a place we could all share, not separate rooms.
Met all our expectations.
Country Cottages is centrally located. The units are very well equipped, clean and tidy. Doe beds were all very comfortable. We had a great stay and the option is definitely very good value for money.
Country Cottages is highly recommended. Everything you need at affordable rates in a beautiful little town. Owners friendly and helpful!
Friendly welcome. Very calm. Will definitely stay there again.
Recommend Country Cottages to any traveller. First visit to Nieu Bethesda and will definitely stay at Country Cottages again if we visit Nieu Bethesda in the future.
An electric blanket would have been nice - quite cold at night!
The cottages have potential, but the owner will need to give some attention to the bedding and heating during winter. The chalet is clean and neat, but the quality of the linen, as well as the mattresses of especially the single beds, are not up to standard. It was icy cold and there were summer linen and no electric blankets on the beds. The hostess went out of her way to make more blankets available to us for which we were very grateful. We were really cold. You can't leave the heater on when you leave the building because of safety reasons, and that is why the room was so cold.
We were surprised with our stay! Thank you very much!
From booking to reception and service was of outstanding quality.
The place is clean, tidy and well furnished. Place to put your stuff and hang towels is always important to me because so many places don't have it, but here there was more than enough. Ulrich was very friendly and spoiled the children with a treat and gave us good advice about the places in town.
Our accommodation was absolutely neat, clean and excellent care to comfort guaranteed. Both units are 100% equipped.
Very satisfied with service provided.
We highly recommend Country Cottages.
The reception, and the whole weekend's stay was excellent!
We really enjoyed our stay. It was central, so we could walk everywhere. Ulrich was very helpful.
Comfortable accommodation in the town centre. We were warmly welcomed. The units are well equipped and everything was provided for. Very good option for a 1 or 2 night stay.
Neat and clean, everything you need to visit the village's attractions.
We were kindly received and everything was clean and tidy. The beds are very comfortable. I will definitely stay here again if I visit New Bethesda again.
All right and tidy. Located in beautiful Karoo village. Everything one needs is there. Owners helpful and friendly.
Very neat and cosy. Close to all attraactions in town. Just a pity about the power that went out in town. We just want to thank Ulrich who went out of his way to organise a gas stove since we had a 7 month old baby.
