We kindly request that you accept this comment in a positive manner, as we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. However, we believe that the family cottage would greatly benefit from a thorough spring cleaning, particularly the inside of the kitchen cupboards and fridge. We appreciate the effort put into maintaining the cottage, but we feel that a more comprehensive cleaning would enhance the overall experience for future guests. The kitchen cupboards and fridge, in particular, require attention to ensure they are in pristine condition. A deep clean would not only improve the visual appeal but also ensure the highest standards of cleanliness and hygiene. By addressing these areas, you can further elevate the quality of your already delightful cottage. We understand that maintaining a property can be challenging, and we offer this feedback constructively, with the intention of helping you provide an exceptional experience for all guests. Thank you for considering our suggestion, and we look forward to the possibility of returning to your charming cottage in the future.

Our stay at Botha house was wonderful, the old Colonial Era still lives on the decor the sleeping arrangements bedding ect where of high quality. A car is a must because there are so many places to visit. Having said that you can lounge around the pool or stay in the drawing room with thick comfy arm chairs. Breakfasts are freshly cooked with so much to chosse from. But without doubt you will find the welcome and eagerness of the staff to help the most rewarding part of your visit.
