A very comfortable stay in this well-appointed cottage. I loved the privacy too.
Very nice stay. Thank you.
Arrangements and accommodation very good and everything there that is needed. Good quiet area too, but close to everything one wants to visit.
Very nice stay. Place was exactly like the pictures. Was kindly received. Very neat and location is perfect. Close to shops.
I had a very nice stay.
We had a very nice stay. Everything in the apartment is neat and clean and of good quality. Quiet and peaceful environment.
A beautiful private cottage. The hosts are lovely. It was peaceful and we loved the space and private garden. We will definitely visit again.
We really enjoyed our stay at The Garden Cottage and will definitely recommend it, especially if travelling with a pet.
Peaceful quiet environment. Near highway. Feel safe. Very convenient, especially because load shedding plays no role - solar & gas.
Very friendly reception even though it was late in the evening. Would stay there again anytime.
The accommodation was more than expected, beautifully spacious and new. All this with very friendly service, makes it a place I would want to stay again.
The Garden Cottage is very clean and tidy. A good stopover for business travelers or a stopover after a late night in the vicinity of the Garden Cottage. Melanie received us very kindly and was very helpful. A big plus is the fact that it is a solar powered unit.
The studio apartment was larger than I thought and had a full kitchen with a stove and everything. It looked lovely. My only complaints are that the duvet was stuffed with down feathers and this wasn't stated anywhere. I'm allergic to down feathers so I ended up being quite cold that night. Secondly, the shower took a very long time to get warm. I waited about 10 minutes for hot water to start coming through.
Great stay. Loved the place. But please mention the dog, for people who are scared of dogs.
I was kindly received and thoroughly enjoyed every moment in the cottage.
The place is very neat and meets our requirements. Feels very safe and is private.
The cottage is well-appointed, spotless and private. I was well-received by the owners who explained the television, alarm, and the like. I travel with two mini-dachshunds and they were also well-pleased. We enjoyed our stay and will certainly recommend and return.
Very neat and clean. Very quiet and peaceful with everything needed for a comfortable good stay for one day or more.
Very nice stay. Loved the area and felt safe. Room is nice and everything was right and clean.
It is nice and quiet. Both the owners are very friendly and make sure you're staying is as comfortable as possible.
Wish we could have stayed longer! Would love to stay here again next time. Melanie, thank you for everything, so nice neat and clean! Our chihuahua, Juno, also felt so at home!
I enjoyed privacy since the owner only communicated via WhatsApp. No need to go to a restaurant or sit in a guesthouse, self-catering was a bonus. Very clean!
It was really very nice and very safe. I can definitely recommend this place.
Space is perfectly set up, the desk makes it perfect to work at.
We arrived and were welcomed by the host. Very friendly and definitely welcoming. The Garden Cottage is an ideal spot if you're looking for the perfect getaway. Really a 10/10!
Enjoyed my stay.
Place was neat, modern and safe. Definitely value for money. I would suggest putting in a ceiling fan or air conditioner or maybe just making a regular fan available in the room. But otherwise, slept and stayed very well.
Once again thanks Malanei and Graham for your warmest welcoming and care. The place is more than a five star hotel, with the highest taste of furniture in the rooms, it's very clean with Wi-Fi and no loadshedding as they have a powerful backup power during the day and at night 100%.
The Garden Cottage was the perfect place to stay for me. It has everything you needed. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to book and would certainly go back.
The breakfast, the place and the hosts were incredible and the booking was not expensive.
Really enjoyed it. Peace of mind. Convenient.
Positives: Zias, the Great Dane! It's clean and tidy with all amenities. Provision for loadshedding and Wifi. Shortly after we left, the owner informed me that I had left my wedding ring behind. 10/10 for that, thanks a thousand. Negative: It was freezing cold and a gas heater would help a lot. Temp varied between 3 and 13 degrees, so the solar panel geyser could only provide hot water for one shower out of a possible 4 chances. Otherwise, no complaints as far as location, quietness and safety are concerned. Added to that, the owners are not to blame for the cold weather either! I will visit Zias again!
Very quiet, nice relaxing place.
