Value for money in a good location.

The host is respectful of your privacy but available when needed. We appreciated the proximity to the Spar grocery store and pharmacy, making it an easy walk. It's a lovely cottage.

Great.

The only problem is there is no facility to braai.

There is a Weber outside the cottage that you could use.

Gerieflik en perfek geleë.

Ek het baie lekker by Bougainvillea Cottage gebly. Die woonstel is goed toegerus, netjies en baie goed geleë vir toegang na Somerset-Wes en Stellenbosch. Veilige parkering vir motor agter elektroniese hek. Chrismare was baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Sal aanbeveel!

Lekker stil area en eersteklas blyplek.

Private ingang wat jou nie laat voel dat jy die huis bewoners gaan pla as jy laat inkom of vroeg vertrek nie. Naby hoof roetes.

Nice quiet area and first class accommodation.

Private entrance that doesn't make you feel like you're going to bother the house occupants if you come in late or leave early. Close to main routes.

Lovely quiet and relaxing place as a base for all our outings in the Eastern Cape area!

We had a very good time at the Bougainvillea Cottage with Ben and Chrismare. The cottage provides all you need during your holidays. It was clean and we found upon arrival the first necessities, like water, milk, tea, coffee, sugar, washing-up liquid etcetera, even anti mosquito (not that there were any), towels and swimming pool towels. And of course we could make use of the lovely pool. Very nice when you have been about all day exploring. We can recommend this place. Ben and Chrismare made us feel very welcome and looked after us very well indeed.

Ongelooflik.

Die kothuis is ongelooflik. Dit is baie mooi in 'n baie rustige omgewing en baie netjies. Chrismare het aan alles gedink. Dit was sowaar voortreflik. Ek sal beslis weer daar gaan slaap en kan dit met gemoedsrus vir enige iemand aanbeveel.

Dit was baie lekker.

Dit is 'n baie mooi plek en die gashere was baie goed. Ons het net daar geslaap en was nooit gepla. Baie dankie en sal weer die plek gebruik as ons in Somerset-Wes is.

We were welcomed and shown around and had every comfort we could have had.

My sister and I attended a wedding in the area so Bouganvillea was a perfect place for us to stay. It saved us driving all the way back to Cape Town late at night. We had every mod con that we could hope for as well as tea/coffee sugar and milk. Thank you, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this accommodation to anyone.

Rustige woonbuurt en vriendelike mense. Ons het heerlik gebly.

Woonstel was netjies, gerieflik en skoon. Lieflike badkamer. Al wat ek dalk kan aanbeveel is 'n kragprop bo die spieël in kamer om jou hare te kan doen en 'n waaier in TV-kamer. Die vertrek word nogal warm in die somer. Verder is dit 'n lieflike plek en mense. Ons sal enige tyd aanbeveel en ook self weer daar gaan bly.

Quiet neighborhood and friendly people. We had a wonderful stay.

Apartment was neat, comfortable and clean. Lovely bathroom. All I can recommend is a power plug above the mirror in the room to do your hair and a fan in the TV room. The room gets quite hot in the summer. Furthermore, it is a lovely place and people. We would recommend anytime and stay there again ourselves.
