Stayed in Rose Cottage, very clean and comfortable, but the bathroom is very very small. The parking space for Rose Cottage is also very akward to access especially if there are other vehicles in the yard. Owners of bigger SUV's or vehicles such as double cab bakkies will have a hard time parking. Overall I would definitely recommend, staff are friendly and as mentioned room was clean and well stocked with crockery etc. Everything needed for self catering is there. Situated +- 500 meters from the Gonubie boardwalk and beach. Shops, fuel stations, take aways etc. all in close proximity.

What more can I say except ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! The hosts are lovely and caring people who walk more than a mile to accommodate you. The cottage itself is so well equipped and without a doubt we will definitely return.

Loved the beautifully decorated mirror and the other decorative touches. Although we didn't utilize the kitchen, it was well equipped. Loved the Rose bush and star jasmine. our stay was only 2 nights, I would stay again if I travel this way.

We had a comfortable stay, the attention to detail is beautiful and the mosaic work really creative. We have stayed at very few places where the pillows are so comfortable to sleep on! We will bring our friends along next time and we will be back...for sure!

Firstly we really enjoyed our stay. You have put thought and decorative skill in achieving such a welcoming feel. There is everything needed and more for holiday comfort. Gabby (the poodle) is a stunning extra, so gentle- a joy to have around. See you next time we are in East London.

The Blue room was cosy, cute and ideal for a beach holiday. This place is definitely a must for couples. After our stay here very few places will come close to the experience we had here. Thanks alot!

Heerlike gerieflike verblf, luukse slaap en aandag aan die fynste detail en dekor = pragtig. Hondekind is te dierbaar opvreetbaar. Die twee dae het verbygeglip en so baie om te ontdek nog.
