16 guests' feedbackIt was great. I loved the cottage. It felt like a home away from home. The owners were amazing. They were nothing but welcoming. I am definitely visiting again.
Yes, very nice stay. It's just the way in is very washed out. Would not recommend driving in with a car.
Place has everything one needs.
See stars.
Beautiful farm and friendly staff. Was very helpful after we forgot something there. House comfortable, clean and tidy inside. Appears somewhat unfinished from the outside. Road to farm very impassable.
Beautiful garden, lovely location, comfortable accommodation. good stop over en route to northern Kruger Park
Beautiful guesthouse just one hour from the Punda Maria gate.
All the amenities and facilities are good. We had the whole house to ourselves as we were the only 2 groups. The lack of a TV did not detract and we had a great time!
Very neat place with friendly reception.
Softwater is located close to the road, yet exceptionally quiet and peaceful. The master bedroom is beautiful and ideal for a romantic getaway.
Was regtig 'n pragtige plek.
Fabulous stay, quiet space.
Thanks so much for your hospitality.
Well-equipped. Beautiful pool for the summer it is in a large garden close to the road, but if it rains a lot a normal car would not be up to the job.
Amenities are great, I would only change the bed in the master bedroom to a double bed - I will replace the 2 x single beds as the mattresses are obsolete. The kitchen and bathroom facilities fantastic - had nice hot water! I realize the environment comes from the winter season, the garden needs renovation and very dry. Security wise I would like to request that the front and bedroom doors be provided with keys - I must mention that we did not feel unsafe at all. Braai facilities for each unit - Excellent! Would love to visit Softwaters again but in the summer if the gardens had rain. Parking may be a problem, but safe. Great cleaning services!
Very nice, no hot water, couldn't bathe. Weak! Rest was very nice.
