Great getaway.
Beechwood Cottage is beautiful, the unit is clean, tidy and equipped with everything you could need (kitchenware, fridge and freezer, plenty of blankets, mosquito repellent, even a washing machine). There is a lovely stoep and braai area with a beautiful view. It is the perfect place for a self-catering break and the tranquility, silence and beautiful view make it perfect for resting. It is close to Leopards Rock, Oribi Gorge, and Lake Eland so there are many activities within a short driving distance. Brigitte is a wonderful hostess and received us with kindness.

It was a wonderful and comfortable week for us as a family.
The location was perfect and it was delightful to have everything we needed there. What impressed us most as a family , was the fact that we arrived at the destination very late after a super long drive, and the accommodation had everything we would need the next morning to survive before we could go shopping for groceries. The delicious home-made rusks were a winner. The best part was when we arrived back at our little place in the afternoons, very tired, and it was nicely cleaned. We travel a lot and this is definitely one of the better, more comfortable, nicely furnished places I've stayed. I could definitely recommend this accommodation. We had a great time and were heartened by the hospitality of the owners.

Brigitte welcomed us warmly. Neat and clean accommodation kept that way the entire time, the unit was cleaned daily. Beautiful area, quiet and safe with enough space for the kids. Will recommend this anytime. Ideal location if you want to visit the Oribi area, maybe a bit far, not too far, from the beach (+ - 25 km). Thanks so much Brigitte and Heinz, for a wonderful time at Beechwood Cottage.

It will always be a good memory. Many thanks to you and the owners. I was impressed upon my arrival at Beechwood Cottage. Everything was neat and clean, and was kept that way during my stay. I had a great time and rested well after a busy and stressful year. It felt like I was in my own home. The layout did not differ much. Will definitely want to visit there again in the future.

We stayed at Brittige's Beechwood Cottage for 5 days. The house is very nicely finished and has everything you will need. All the beautiful and adventurous attractions in the Oribi Gorge area are within a 20 minute drive from Beechwood Cottage. If you are looking for a place that is nice and quiet where you can relax, Beechwood Cottage is the answer.

Very pleasant and welcoming. Can recommend, even for four people!
At first glance we were impressed with the residence. It's when you take a closer look and walk in that you immediately feel comfortable and at home. The owners are extremely friendly and accommodating. Wood was provided with braai "briquette" and even a full bottle of milk upon our arrival. The fridge is a decent size and everything is very clean and tidy. The residence is also close to the Zipline and Oribi Gorge Hotel which have attractions with plenty of things to do. The only thing was that we didn't realize to take our own DStv decoder, but upon enquiry, the owners insisted on using theirs. I can't wait to go there again and experience the hospitality and tranquility of Beachwood cottage.
