Lovely, relaxed, ideal for family time.
We had an amazing family long weekend at Asher Riverside Cottages. The hostess, Ada, was extremely helpful and responded quickly to inquiries and corrections (such as the DSTV). My children and grandchildren took full advantage of the stay with kayaking and hot tub. We knew beforehand about the possibility of flies, so provision was made to eliminate them 99%. Remember to switch on the electric insect repellent on the porch. It makes a huge difference. Please visit Eseltjiesrus while you are in the area.

It wasn't a very good experience, very little to do without access to the river.
Asher Riverside Cottages 's response
Dear Mr. Shafiq Sallie,
We are so sorry that you did not enjoy your visit to Asher Riverside Cottages.
The cottage you stayed in's access to the river was a little bit to the left and not directly in front of the cottage. The access is not entirely easy, but it is possible.
The DSTV was on during the morning when we were busy getting the cottage ready for you. Please send me your banking details (without revealing personal information) so that I can refund you the extra you had to pay for the DSTV. I'm sorry that the cows were a bother to you. They were three cows with their less than a year old calves that we left in a camp in front of the cottages. I would like to confirm that Asher Riverside Cottages is situated on a working farm.
You were welcome to contact me during your stay and I would have tried my best to sort out the problems you had with the cottage, access to the river, and the DSTV, etc. My number was on the fridge and in the kitchen cupboard.
I really hope that you enjoyed the rest of the festive season.
Kind regards,
Ada

Dit was fantasties. Die enigste ietsie wat gepla het, was die leer na die loft wat nogal gevaarlik kan wees vir kindertjies.

It was fantastic. The only thing that bothered me was the ladder to the loft which can be quite dangerous for small children.
We had a great time. The hot tub was lovely and the surroundings are beautiful. The cottage is well equipped.

Quiet few days with adequate facilities.
The cottages are very comfortable with the basic equipment you need for a weekend. The location is convenient for those looking for a place outside the town but still close enough to the wine farms in the area. We would recommend that the owners upgrade the equipment in the cottage and perhaps improve the porch. Right now it's just a cement slab. Something like more comfortable outdoor benches. daybeds, more lighting can help. But if the idea is to provide a basic place to live, it does.

Peaceful getaway with beautiful view.
Very quiet place away from the city noise. Down to earth, nothing fancy, just what is needed. Nice hot tub to relax in. Children can fish. Small children will only need parental supervision because it's quite steep down to the river. Children can enjoy cycling. Large porch with braai overlooking the river. Stairs to the "loft" also very stylish - so not suitable for older people. But 2 large bedrooms downstairs.

Tranquil and relaxing getaway. Sound of birds on the river, fish jumping. Asher provides a double kayak for a paddle in the river. Hot tub is big enough for 4 or 5 at a time. Close to wine farms for tastings.

Hospitable owner. "Hot tub" was a great treat, fully equipped clean cottage.
Wonderfully quiet between the vineyard and the river. Lots of flies were a frustration, presumably due to the cattle nearby. Owner does make a good effort to control it, although it doesn't exactly turn dog off. Fortunately, there were 3 fly swatters with which we could practice backhand and chest shots.

Have a lovely peaceful weekend!
We had a great time! Lovely large porch and lawn for children to play. Beautiful view of the river. The stairs to the roof sleeping area are just not suitable for older people or small children. Unit was very neat and well equipped. Houses can be updated in a bit, but everything you need is there. Maybe not quite worth R2000 a night, but we still had a great time and even paddled on the river! Owners are very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend it. Hot pool a big winner!

The ideal place for a break from the hectic city. The hot tub under the stars was definitely a highlight and the rowing an adventure on its own which made for many giggling memories.

We visited Asher. The distance is not too far from the Cape and the route is incredibly beautiful. The weekend gave you a break on a farm where only the birds on the river talked. The owners of the farm are very hospitable and friendly and the children even got a chance to help give milk to the lambs. The house is clean and tidy with everything you need. We had a nice walk along the river and lay in the hot tub at night. Was delicious! Thank you very much.

Most beautiful location!
The house is located right on the river with a beautiful view. Very private with a lovely hot tub that you heat with fire. The stairs to the loft where 4 people can sleep are VERY steep. So it is more suitable for children. Kitchen is small but equipped with everything you need. A wonderful break and a very peaceful environment.

The location is beautiful, but the wet wood provided put a damper on the weekend.
The accommodation was clean, but privacy is a challenge with the beds in the loft. The accommodation is suitable for one family with children.
