115 guests' feedbackWe had a lovely stay in the comfortable cottage. We really can't mention any point that was not to our liking - everything was great and in order. Just booked the place again for our next visit to Somerset West.
We had a wonderful stay.
Although we only stayed 1 night, everything was up to standard and there was no shortage.
Accommodation was clean and tidy. Working air conditioning and full DSTV available.
Stayed very comfortable and warm under cold, wet conditions.
We had an appointment at Mediclinic and were initially only going to stay one night, but enjoyed the cottage so much that we stayed another day. The place is very neat, spacious and well equipped, and very conveniently located for hospital visits. At first I thought the previous guests were exaggerating with their assessments, but I have to agree. If it were possible I would give the cottage a 5+ rating for every category.
Kind and accommodating hosts. Well equipped, safe and comfortable. Perfect for going to the Medi-Clinic.
It had everything we needed and was so relaxed and welcoming.
Beautiful place, safe everything you need and more. Very welcome feeling! Friendly and warm welcome. I can definitely recommend and will stay there again in the future.
Very close to Medi Clinic Hospital. Lovely spacious. Appreciated the air conditioner during the extremely hot summer.
I booked for 2 days Friday and Saturday. Got very good service from them. I will stay there again and again.
Stay was very nice for us, just the kids were a bit bored.
Didn't stay long but that was because of a family emergency. But for the short while we were there, we really enjoyed it. It was clean and had a very relaxing vibe, which we needed. I would recommend the accommodation to anyone who just needs time away from their busy lives. We would definitely go again and again and again.
I had a wonderful stay.
The stay was very peaceful and felt like a home away from home. The unit has everything you need, and it is very homely. It is close to many shops and 10 minutes away from the beach.
The cottage has good linen, towels, and mattress. It is well equipped and provided with coffee, sugar and milk. I had a great stay, no complaints.
Excellent and practically equipped.
Comfortable stay. Easy check-in. Safe.
Very neat, clean and well located. Excellent service! Will definitely use the Cottage again.
It was an enjoyable place.
The cottage is a beautiful place! We really enjoyed our time there. The hospitality of the host was exceptional!
A lovely and relaxed cottage where you feel at home. Easy to come and go with your own entrance to premises. Abrie is such a sweet person as if I know her well. Makes you feel comfortable and always there if you need something. Comfortable place close to als and safe area too. Thank you very much Abrie and Herman.
We had a wonderful stay! The place looks small, but it is well furnished so that one does not feel cramped. It had everything we needed. It is well located and I can see myself enjoying my entire holiday in the cottage!
Owner's comment is that somewhere in the apartment there is catchment. Stopped in several places, but no reception while WiFi in main house is on and available.
We travel with a Rottweiler and accommodation remains a problem. The Cottage exceeded our expectations, separate entrance, fenced, neat and well equipped. 100% recommend it.
The Kothuis was a rest-for-the-soul home for me during my husband's hospitalization. As someone who did not know Somerset West at that time, Die Kothuis was conveniently located near the hospital and shopping centre. In terms of amenities, nothing was lacking. Appreciated still being able to have power during load shedding times, as well as WiFi catch-up, plus an electric blanket as a treat against the cold winter evenings.
Great little spot for the month we stayed. Load shedding doesn't really affect in the evenings at certain times as the generator is turned on. Hosts were prompt with requests and always willing to oblige. Hermien was a great host. Thanks.
Everything was beautiful and clean and we were warmly received. Might recommend that laundry soap be provided as there is a washing machine. Other than that, everything is great.
The moment I stepped in, it felt like home.
Lovely quiet surroundings and accommodation that is very spacious, well equipped and tidy. Depending on the purpose of your visit, the location is excellent for someone who wants to explore the Cape area in any direction.
Pets are safe, screened and behind gates. Provision is made for power during "load shedding".
I slept well. I will be able to stay there for a few days - it is convenient.
Our week-long stay at Die Kothuis was very pleasant. Our host was very accommodating. The unit has nearly everything needed for a home-from-home comfort.
Wonderful hostess and very comfortable apartment. Has everything you need to have a nice stay. Will definitely stay there again.
It was such a nice place. Neat and clean, and there was als. Hermien and Abrie 2 lovely people. Would stay there again.
Very neat and spacious, owner was friendly and helpful, we will stay there again if necessary.
Stay was good. Except for the WiFi which is very weak there, as well as the shower which is blocked.
Very close to Vergelegen Hospital. Has everything you need in apartment. Owners are very friendly and helpful. Would recommend to anyone as it is very clean and safe.
The cottage was tidy, enough space, we could sit back and just relax, everything we needed was there, I would advise anyone to book there. Thank you Hermien and Abrie, your cottage made us feel at home.
Unfortunately we only slept 1 night but the cottage meets everything one needs. We will definitely stay there again.
My spouse was at Vergelegen Hospital for an operation, so the short distance to the hospital was very convenient. Hermien and Abrie (owners) were very friendly and accommodating. The Cottage was exactly as advertised. Will definitely stay there again.
Really a very cozy place to stay for a few days with everything one needs.
We had a great time staying at the cottage. Very friendly hostess and host, very helpful. We really enjoyed our time and will definitely stay there again. Very clean and was not at all affected by the loadshedding.
Husband was in Vergelegen MediClinic for surgery. The Cottage is so close and safe. There is everything one needs. Very neat and clean and friendly owners.
Will definitely recommend Die Kothuis to friends and families.
Very good location near hospitals, centers. The owners are very friendly, safe parking. The unit was very neat and everything was comfortable.
Near Vergelegen hospital where I wanted to be. Very clean. DStv! A lovely washing machine. Lovely bedding and extra blankets. Animal friendly. I recommend Die Kothuis 100%. A really lovely, practical place to stay and has everything one needs.
We only stayed for one night, but it was private and secure. The owner was friendly and welcoming. So welcoming when we arrived on a very cold night that they even had an electric blanket on in our bed. I was such a suprise to get into a warm, welcoming bed. So special. The place is beautiful, clean and I will recomend Die Kothuis to anyone.
Loved the guesthouse. Stocked with every comfort you'll need. Very helpful and friendly owners as well. Will recommend this place any day.
Cleanliness is very important to us and the cottage deserves full marks in this regard. Everything we needed was there, and the warm blanket was a nice bonus.
Stay was pleasant and excellent.
Had a great time. We will definitely go again.
Thank you very much, we had a wonderful stay. The neat apartment was exactly what we needed for our family. Would recommend the cottage to anyone.
We were welcomed in a wonderful, friendly and polite manner. I would definitely go again, the stay was lovely just tok short. 10 out of 10 for the great service and stay, I will definitely recommend to others.
Enjoyed our stay. Will recommend to others to stay there.
The full DStv package was a bonus for my children.
For the price you can't get better. All the equipment in excellent condition and very clean. Close to supermarket and shooting range where we participated. We were very impressed and should we shoot there again next year, I will stay there again with an open heart.
One of my best stays in Helderberg. Definitely will stay here again. The location was perfect. The fact that the unit is freestanding and gives the feeling of individuality also was a plus. The pictures don't do as much justice to being there - it's cosy and very comfortable with little kids especially. The extra details like the little table in the bathroom for toiletries, extra detergents was also a nice touch.
Thank you Hermien for the warm welcome. You thought of the smallest things that made the stay so delightful. We will surely recommend Die Kothuis to our family and friends and you will see us definitely again.
My children and spouse really enjoyed the atmosphere and tranquility.
We really enjoyed our time there and it really is a place you can visit again!
The photos of the Cottage on the website are accurate with private entry. The area is also nice and quiet.
Hermione is very friendly and helpful. She took my wife to the pharmacy to get prescription medicine. She came to check on my surgery in the afternoon and asked how it was going and offered help if we needed anything. We will definitely come and stay at Die Kothuis again.
Well informed information and very clean living conditions.
If you are needing accommodation in the area then you cannot go wrong with Die Kothuis. It is comfortable and the layout and facilities are excellent. We would happily have stayed longer.
It is neat and definitely value for money. I will surely recommend Die Kothuis to family and friends.
Very neat and comfortable.
Only wish it had working wifi (for my teenagers!) and the sleeper couch bedding was not clean. Other than that, perfect. Couldn't ask for anything more. Never saw owners though, not on arrival or when leaving. I rang the bell to hand back the key but was told over the intercom to "post" them in the postbox. Not a warm welcome at all.
The cottage is very nicely furnished, had no problem finding it. The management of the cottage was very helpful. Would love to go there again.
Was nice to stay there, would rather say it is suitable for only up to 2 people.
The reception at the Cottage was very friendly. Owner also called for help for our caravan's faulty brakes. Cottage is very neat, modern and offered so much more than we expected. Our family will definitely stay with them again.
Friendly owners.
Quiet, safe and private. Well equipped. Definitely recommend! Friendly hostess, everything in perfect order
The cottage is well located, very tidy and really value for money.
We would just like to thank you for a wonderful stay. The cottage had everything you could possibly need, and was extremely clean and neat. It is very quiet and private, and has such a cosy and lovely homely atmosphere. We absolutely loved every minute we spent there, and will definitely be back, and will recommend it to everyone! Thank you again.
Place was clean and neat.
It was truly more than we could have asked for. Close to the day hospital, clean, quiet and private. We as rural people are used to a peaceful silence and I can honestly say that Die Kothuis offered us that. We will definitely go again and recommend it to everyone. Their cat just wasn't very hospitable.
Excellent places, can't wait to go again.
Highly recommendable.
Owners handled reception professionally. Unit is very neat and clean. Unit is very well equipped and stylishly furnished. Can definitely recommend it to everyone.
Very nice stay. The apartment is spacious, clean and tidy. The service was good.
Incredibly friendly people. The cottage has everything you need, complete self-catering unit. Very neat, 10/10.
Well located. Everything we needed. Will definitely stay here again.
We had a great stay in the cottage, the kids were also very comfortable (2 and 4 years old). The kitchen is well equipped and feels like home.

Our stay here was an absolute pleasure. The hosts were great and very friendly, nothing was too much trouble. The accommodation was clean and modern making our stay here very comfortable, having secure parking and our own entrance was ideal. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend.

Spacious and comfortable. Ideal place to explore the Cape. Very friendly owner. Would recommend them anytime. Suggestion, WiFi would be a bonus. Especially for foreign travelers.
A very well located and equipped place. They really thought of everything you could need, extremely neat and well finished unit with safety as a priority. The area is very quiet and easily accessible. The reception was very friendly and helpful as well as daily visits to check if everything is in order. Really value for money and nice resting place.
The friendliness of our host, and how Die Kothuis looked impressed us! Everything you need are there - the kitchen well equipped and you can even have a braai if you want to. It is so near Vergelegen Medi Clinic and all the central of Somerset West. I was very impressed!
Totally worth it.
The accommodation met all our needs viz. secure parking, DStv, braai facilities. The owners are very hospitable and helpful.
We spent a very nice two weeks at Die Kothuis, neat, clean facilities and safe parking. Everything you might need and the owner is very helpful. Will definitely book the place again.
From our arrival until we left Die Kothuis everything was 100%. Thank you Abrie for the hospitality and that we were so well received. We have stayed at Die Kothuis on two occasions within a matter of a week and can really recommend it.
I would recommend the Cottage. However, the booking process was a nightmare.
Owners very helpful. Clean, well-equipped accommodation. Somerset West very central.
The Cottage is the ideal accommodation for visiting Somerset West and surroundings. Very safe and clean. Everything is there that is needed for a wonderful stay. Abrie and Hermien made us feel at home and even provided us with enough wood for a barbecue.
Everything you are looking for is here, neatly clean and very safe. I highly recommend Die Kothuis.
Thank you for your hospitality and always nice to spend the night at a clean and tidy place. You will definitely see us again. The Kothuis offers everything and more for their guests.
