Heerlike, rustige gevoel in die omtrek met 'n lieflike tuin.

'n Onverwagse, heerlike bottel wyn, hout vir die kaggel en 'n vrieshokkie vol ys was 'n bonus! Die atmosfeer is rustig en die verblyf is ten volle toegerus. Die verwarmer in die kamer het ons knussig gehou en die swembad was ongebruik maar definitief welkom vir die somerbesoekers.

Lovely, peaceful feel in the surroundings with a lovely garden.

An unexpected, delicious bottle of wine, wood for the fireplace and a freezer full of ice was a bonus! The atmosphere is peaceful and the accommodation is fully equipped. The heater in the room kept us cozy and the pool was unused but definitely welcome for the summer visitors.

A beautiful cottage with a fantastic lush garden.

We would have felt safer with more security. The windows are all easy access once opened and main gate is easy access to unwelcome guests. The cottage is situated on a busy corner with high foot traffic.

Heerlike kothuis

Ons is verwelkom met 'n lekker verrassing, ook koffie en tee, en beskuit, asook hout vir ons kaggel. Daar is moeite gemaak om nog 'n bed in die sitkamer in te sit, en die kothuis is pragtig ingerig. Stapafstand van alles af, stil, en landelik. Ons was beïndruk en sal weer kom!

Lovely cottage

We were welcomed with a nice surprise, also coffee and tea, and biscuits, as well as wood for our fireplace. Effort has been made to put another bed in the living room, and the cottage is beautifully furnished. Walking distance to everything, quiet, and rural. We were impressed and will come again!

Sal nie weer McGregor toe gaan nie.

Die yskas, stoof, toaster, ketel en mikrogolf was vuil. Die asblik lyk of dit vir 'n stoel gebruik is. Die cottage is koud en geleë naby 'n nuwe uitbreiding waar behuising gegee word. Dit raas die hele nag.

Will not go to McGregor again.

The fridge, stove, toaster, kettle and microwave were dirty. The trash looks like it was used for a chair. The cottage is cool and located near a new extension where housing is given. It roars all night.

Perfek vir 'n wegbreekkans.

Ons het heerlik gebly! Met ons aankoms was ons verwelkom met 'n vriendelike glimlag (al was dit na 7 die aand) en 'n heerlike bottel witwyn. Ek sal dit vir seker aanbeveel.

We had a lovely stay! We were greeted with a friendly smile upon arrival (even though it was after 7 at night) and a lovely bottle of white wine. I will highly recommend it.

Rustigheid en stilte weg van die stad se geraas.

Heerlike naweek weg van die stad se geraas. McGregor was baie stil en die keuses van eetplekke was baie beperk met heelwat restaurante/eetplekke wat toe was. Kon Saterdag oggend die klein markie besoek en het heerlike gebak en plaasprodukte gekoop. Ons enigste klagte met Bougainvilla Cottage was dat die geyser afgesit was. Bestuur moet dalk nota of iets opsit om gaste in te lig vooraf of by aankoms. Ons moes koue stort vat Saterdag wat nie aangenaam was nie. Ons besoek aan Eseltjiesrus was die hoogtepunt van die naweek en sal dit nooit vergeet nie.

Peace and quiet away from the city noise.

Great weekend away from the city's noise. McGregor was very quiet and the choices of places to eat were very limited with quite a few restaurants/diners open. Was able to visit the small market on Saturday morning and bought delicious baked goods and farm products. Our only complaint with Bougainvilla Cottage was that the geyser was turned off. Management may need to put up note or something to inform guests in advance or upon arrival. We had to take a cold shower on Saturday which was not pleasant. Our visit to Eseltjiesrus was the highlight of the weekend and will never forget it.

Mixed feelings.

Had our dog's leads and harnesses stolen from within the property along with a bag of charcoal. Petty theft but think guests should be warned not to leave items outside at all. Have to replace the leads now which is an extra expense! Also could not walk the dogs during the trip which was not great. Pool had way too much Chlorine so could not swim properly.

Bougainvillea Cottage 's response

Thank you for your review and we are terribly sorry about the theft situation. We have never had a problem at the cottage before and it is the first time that guests have experienced this. We will make sure in future to communicate with guests not to leave any belongs outside. We have also communicated with the pool services company and will make sure to follow up with your feedback above! We do hope you will visit McGregor again and have a better experience.
