Guest reviews for River View Cottages

Salmon - 29/06/2023 10:16:30

"Warm welcome from our host. We enjoyed the cottage in the beautiful surroundings. Stunning sunset and viewing stars at night. Overall very enjoyable and can definitely recommend. Thank you."

"It was extremely windy, and it was unpleasant to braai outside with the fear of starting a veld fire. Perhaps consider providing an alternative for these exceptional weather conditions (undercover braai)."

"River View Cottage is ideally located, in the middle of the Klein Karoo mountains, close to a river where it is possible to swim and to canoe. Views are fantastic. The cottage is tastefully decorated and the appliances are of great quality. The host is very friendly and offers good service."

"It was extremely hot when we were there. But that could easily be solved by staying in and on the water!"

"We loved our stay at River Cottages, it was quiet and secluded with great views and amazing walks. Bronwyn and Colin were very welcoming and we would definitely go back for a longer stay next time!"

"Aucun."

"We absolutely loved our stay at the River View Cottages.The Vista of the mountains and River are exceptional , the bird life phenomenal! the kitchen is well equipped with all that you need."

"Perhaps a queensize bed rather than the double that is currently there. its a bit too small for a couple of tall people . If possible an aircon in the bedroom . and i thought perhaps a built in bench seating outside in an L shape with foam cushions on top would make it very comfy for afternoon reading , sleeping . the little couch isn't too comfy'. ."

"A place to relax and watch nature go by. The river is amazing for a swim and to cool down. We hope to come back to this wonderful spot soon again."

"What a wonderful place! The tranquility, the peacefulness, the nature and the stars at night - we loved every bit of it!"

"Aucun."

Bjarke - 24/02/2024 15:52:46

"What a fantastic place, maybe the best place we have stayed in Southafrica. You can sit all day and Fall into trance over the view from the cottages. Magical. The cottages are comfortable and so well designed that you think you are in a classy hotel, but with personality. And a perfect personal service fron Gondwyn. And then all the things you can do, swim in the river, padle the canoe/kayak for free or take beautifull walks. Or just sit on the veranda and enjoy. Highly recommended. We were there for 5 days. Anne-Birte and Bjarke"

"We linked it all"

"River View Cottage is a gem. The attention to detail to ensure guests are comfortable is very special. The views from the cottage is spectacular. We did the Steering Kloof hike and it was like walking in a fairytale world. We stayed three nights, should have stayed four. It is a place that soothes the soul."

"My own preference would be a bigger bed, but definitely not a deal breaker."

Guest reviews

"The sea view from our room was stunning, the king-sized bed very comfortable. We could hear the ocean from our room, which was very relaxing. Everything was neat and clean, beautifully decorated Guest house. Wi-Fi signal gladly very strong."

"Location, friendly and helpful host, the balcony/view."

"The breakfast was delicious, as was the coffee. The staff were very friendly and helpful."

"Friendly staff - Ismail went out of his way for us. Breathtaking view of ocean and garden at entrance"

"Almost everything we were camfortable treated nicely the stuff was so welcoming and friendly more especially at the reception area we are greateful for and i would highly recommend the place"

"Breakfast was wonderful. The host was very gracious. Everything was great"

"The amazingly beautiful garden and pool just make you want to come back again and again. The bungalows are nice and clean and the restaurant serves excellent food."

"We had a lovely time at the Winterton Country Lodge. The host, Jeunesse, provides a most charming welcome. The property itself radiates charm. And we had the largest and coziest unit, with our own porch swing and lots of space inside. Lots of elements showed attention to details, including many European plugs, a teapot, comfy armchairs in the common areas. The property is located out of town, which is OK, as you would need a car to get to most destinations anyway. The grounds are extensive, with a lake, a wooded area, and nice landscaping."

"We had the Suite and that is special. Food was good and the trekking."
