Cottage in Dargle

Beautiful Breeze Cottage

Kate GenevieveRating, 5 stars1 week ago

We loved our stay in this gorgeous cottage! Being able to sit outside on the verandah overlooking the most beautiful view, the sunrise and the sounds of nature including a stream, birds and frogs. We even ventured for a splash in the stream - chilly but lovely! It’s remote enough if you are looking for peace and solitude but also not far (about 20-30 mins) from a lot of the great Midlands meander attractions and restaurants.

Yellowwoods Farm - WILLOUGHBYS COTTAGE

LiezelRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago

Great place, beautiful surroundings, lots to do in the area with great restaurants. We loved the quiet and peaceful surroundings on the farm and off course the two labradors that came to say hallo every day!! The cottage is perfectly equipped with everything you need, even eggs and milk in the fridge! I would highly recommend the place and will go back whenever we get the opportunity.

Romantic Rondawel on the forest's edge

AudraRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Visiting from the UK, Angela the host gave clear directions & gate entry info. On arrival we were greeted with a thatch roof rondawel in the most serene & private surroundings. Felt so tranquil & peaceful looking out over her beautiful garden. The rondawel has a lovely rustic feel & was spotless with the little touches of tea, coffee, sugar & milk plus some delicious biscuits & a dram of Sherry! There’s a fire pit to enjoy looking up at the vast African sky & a swimming pool to enjoy by day. Vervet monkeys were busy foraging & little duikers came to visit. We stayed here 4 times during our visit we enjoyed it so much. Angela gave us tips on places to visit & eat & was so friendly during our stays. We will definitely be back!

Tented River Camp in Karkloof valley

LyndallRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

We absolutely loved our stay! The setting is incredibly peaceful, with breathtaking views of the river and mountains. Whether we were relaxing on the day bed or simply soaking in the natural beauty, every moment felt special. Our children had an amazing time making the fire for the hot tub, chopping wood, and swimming in the river—it was the perfect outdoor adventure for them! The tented camp itself is beautifully designed inside and out, blending comfort with nature effortlessly. This was truly a magical escape, and we can’t wait to come back! Highly recommended.

Thatched Farm house - BCCottages

AdamRating, 5 stars13 months ago

The Thatched Cottage at Beverley Country Cottages exceeded our expectations. The view was even better than the pictures, and the cottage was comfortable and well appointed. Kate and Ruth and team were friendly hosts, and very responsive in addressing any issues with the house. We liked the peace and quiet of the farm, but appreciated that it was close enough to Howick and the rest of the Midlands. Our kids also had great fun with Kate's dogs, who adopted us while we were there. Would definitely recommend!

A serene garden scene showcases a variety of lush plants and flowers, including white blossoms and vibrant purple foliage. A rustic bird feeder stands among the greenery, while a stone birdbath provides a focal point in the tranquil outdoor space.

We booked Penny's place at the last minute and she was more than willing to assist us. The space is lovely, we enjoyed meals in the open plan kitchen with a view over the valley. The kitchen is well equipped for self catering. The shower was piping hot and clean which was superb on a rainy cold weekend. Full dstv bouquet allowed us to enjoy the UCI XCO races. All in all, an incredibly pleasant weekend. Thanks Penny.
