Lekker.

Nice.
It was very nice for the short time, the owners were incredibly friendly although I feel it should have been emphasized early on that no smoking is allowed on the property. It wasn't shown anywhere, so it was a bit unpleasant.

Hello Candice
Dankie vir julle resensie. Ons is bly julle het die verblyf by ons geniet. Ons is besig om te werk aan die duidelikheid van die nie-rook beleid. Lyk my dit verskyn wel op ons Engelse inligting, maar nie op die Afrikaanse blad nie. Jammer daaroor.

Still my best so far, peaceful area.
Just make a TV that's all. Otherwise good enough for a temporary vacation spot. Will go there again anytime, even if I have to bring my own TV. Thank you Cork Tree Cottage you made my holiday.

Cork Tree Cottage 's response
Hi Chelsey
We are sorry to hear that you had an awful experience staying at Cork Tree Cottage. As clearly stated on our booking site, we have a no-smoking policy. The owner kindly requested you to please refrain from smoking. We do not consider that arrogant.

Cork Tree Cottage is veilig en die omgewing is wonderlik stil.

Cork Tree Cottage is secure and the surroundings are wonderfully quiet.
The surroundings are wonderfully beautiful with mountains and vineyards. The accommodation is far from the Mall and beach area, but still offers silence and safety to switch off.

Dankie Bokkie,
Ons is inderdaad in 'n wonderskoon en relatief veilige omgewing.
Alles is mos maar relatief tot waaraan mens gewoond is.
Mense in die stad dink weer 7.4 km tot by die Mall en 8.7 km tot by die strand is naby.
Vriendelike groete,

I won't be staying here again.
Stayed 2 separate nights and they didn't clean after the first night's stay, didn't empty the garbage, or replace the towels, or even made the bed when I returned there the second time.

Janine, ons is verbaas en opreg jammer om te hoor dat julle nie tevrede was met julle onlangse verblyf by Cork Tree Cottage nie. Let egter asb op die verskil tussen 'n selfsorg eenheid in vergelyking met 'n hotel waar kamers daagliks gediens word. Ons bied en adverteer baie duidelik 'n selfsorg eenheid. Ons adverteer nêrens dat ons ons gaste eenheid daagliks diens gedurende korttermyn verblyf nie en is dus jammer dat julle so 'n verkeerde verwagting kon hê. Ter verduideliking beteken selfsorg dat ons ongelukkig nie ons gaste se beddens daagliks vir hulle opmaak nie, nie handdoeke vervang na slegs 1 maal se gebruik nie en oor die algemeen eers skoonmaak na ons gaste finaal uitgeboek het. Soos met julle aanvanklike aankoms aan julle gekommunikeer is, het ons nie ander gaste gehad gedurende die 2 nagte wat julle nie by ons oornag het nie. Daarom het ons aangebied dat julle van julle persoonlike items veilig by ons kon los, indien julle sou wou. Daaruit het ons verstaan julle besef dat ons die gaste eenheid net so vir julle los van julle eerste aand se verblyf tot en met julle terugkeer na 2 dae. Aldus die rede dat ons nie tussenin meer skoongemaak het as om julle vuil skottelgoed vir julle te was nie. Die netheid waarvoor julle vir ons net een ster gee, was dus nie te danke aan iets wat ons nagelaat het om vooraf of na die tyd te doen nie, maar net hoe julle self die eenheid gelos het tussen julle eerste en tweede aankoms. Ons voel die 14 uit 17 resensies se ander gaste wat vir ons 5 sterre vir netheid gegee het (en die ander 3 gaste wat vir ons 4 sterre gegee het), het 'n meer realistiese verwagting gehad en was dus nie onnodig teleurgesteld nie. Moontlik moet julle in die toekoms eerder hotelverblyf as selfsorg oorweeg.

Ek hou nie van kouewaterstort in die middel van die winter nie.
This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.
I don't like cold shower in the middle of winter.
The place is well located, safe and comfortable. But having only cold water in an almost 5 star overnight stay in the middle of winter is not good. I lived in Swellendam Backpackers from 13/07/16 to 16/07/16 and my experience is that it was better than at Cork Tree for the simple reason that there were the same facilities plus hot water.

Ons opregte verskoning vir die koue water stort tydens u onlangse verblyf by Cork Tree Cottage. Soos u weet, was ons self weg met vakansie ten tye dat u die bespreking gemaak het, en het ons u probeer akkommodeer deur 'n buurvrou te vra om u namens ons te ontvang. Ons was ongelukkig glad nie bewus daarvan dat daar net koue water was nie. Indien ons self tuis was, sou ons dadelik kon aandag skenk aan die probleem. Om te probeer vergoed vir u ongerief bied ons u graag 'n komplimentêre nag aan by Cork Tree Cottage.
Vriendelike Groete

Terribly nice stay, in the most beautiful surroundings. It was very neat and had everything you need!
I would recommend Cork Tree Cottage to anyone looking for a comfortable stay in beautiful surroundings. It was very safe, and we were never bothered or touched by the owners. Everything went smoothly. We slept well and comfortably, the kitchen was fully equipped, always had hot water, the place was clean and we had more than enough storage space for all our luggage and to live. It is very well located. Was really a very relaxing experience!

Nice spacious place for 2 people in a quiet environment.
We had a very peaceful stay and could visit several beautiful places from there. Cork Tree is located in a very quiet street. The kitchen equipment is a bit limited (only a two-plate stove and a microwave oven) for people who may like to cook a lot and there is no TV.
