Exceptional stay, huge positives were high speed internet (including Netflix), daily cleaning of the unit (including dishes and drying of towels!). Our host was magnificent, she even made us supper on a Sunday evening because we only arrived after 20:00 the evening. Only minor crit is that the site lists DSTV. They do not have DSTV, but not a biggie, because they do have Netflix and high speed internet.

Shirley and Rob were really welcoming. The room and breakfasts were hearty and there was plenty to choose from . Shirley is an old school friend and she was happy to help me with anything I wanted. The bed was really comfortable and I loved the big shower. They are working on getting the place as eco friendly as possible and I applaud them for that. I would recommend staying here as It's quiet and easy to get to. My thanks to them both for a lovely stay.

Words cannot express how truly grateful I am to you for your amazing hospitality and genuine concern - a "home away from home" is how I will regard this place! BEST BUTTERNUT SOUP EVER ! Much love.

Again, thank you Rob and Shirley for a relaxed, most comfortable stay. Looks like Cadberry Cottage will be a ' home away from home' for me!

We were tired and desparate and asked for a place to stay. We got 2 angels to comfort us, guide us and solve our problem. One of the highlightsof 2009. May you be blessed in 2010

Shirley, among many accolades, I can say that at last someone has got it right! Clean, confortable, thoughtful touches and tastefully furnished. I will certainly recommend Fountains to anyone. Keep it up.
