We decided not to stay there and used alternative accommodation in town. This was not known to me when I made the booking, the road condition must be detailed on the website... ##### Marius Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Dec 28, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A very modern take on the country farmhouse. Clean with a nice kitchen, outdoor braai (bbq) area with food prep area and sink, air conditioning, wifi, satellite tv and plenty of hot water. The dirt road to get there is a bit long and somewhat precarious, but you get much-needed solitude among the hills and songbirds. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2018 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bruno Bernhard Feb 25, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Wunderschönes ruhiges Cottage nahe Calitzdorp Sehr schönes am Ende des Matjiesvlei Valley gelegenes Cottage für bis zu 6 Personen. Erreichbar über eine nicht asphaltierte Straße (ca.7 km). Das Cottage ist mit allem ausgestattet. Kein Telefonempfang, dafür sehr gutes WLAN. Klimaanlage, Grillbereich. Nach unserer Ankunft wurde uns für den nächsten Tag angeboten mit Kajaks auf dem nahegelegenen Fluss zu paddeln. Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Dies war für uns das bisher schönste und sauberste Cottage welches wir in Südafrika gebucht haben. ##### Bruno Bernhard Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Bruno Bernhard Mar 4, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Bruno Bernhard Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2019
