Excellent accommodation. A true oasis and treasure in Sundays River. The breakfast was something out of the books. What could be better than steaming filter coffee, freshly squeezed orange juice and warm fresh farm bread smells in your nose while you watch the sunrise over the Sundays River. Accommodation great. Little things like fresh milk and a welcome drink make a big difference. From reception to kitchen staff were extremely friendly. Can definitely recommend it and will definitely stay there again.

Uitstekende verblyf. Ware oase en skat in Sondagsrivier. Die ontbyt was iets uit die boeke. Wat kan beter wees as stomende filterkoffie, vars uitgedrukte lemoensap en warm vars plaasbrood reuke in jou neus terwyl jy die sonsopkoms oor die Sondagsrivier kyk. Akkommodasie puik. Klein goedjies soos vars melk en 'n welkom drinkding maak 'n groot verskil. Van ontvangs tot kombuis personeel was uiters vriendelik. Kan vir seker dit aanbeveel en sal definitief weer daar oornag.

Very nice barbecue, wood was out of the books, and rooms fantastic. Very nice owners and staff. Very friendly. Very well treated, also lots of things to do and see. I didn't ask for the WiFi, wasn't needed.

Baie lekker gebraai, hout was uit die boeke uit, en kamers fantasties. Baie lekker eienaars en personeel. Baie vriendlik. Baie goed behandel, ook baie dinge om te doen en te sien. Ek het nie vir die WiFi gevra nie, was nie nodig nie.

It was perfect for our purpose as we were travelling further up the coast. Friendly people, loved the quirkiness of the place, one little hiccup was that we kept on smelling cigarette smoke coming in from the windows, both sides (from the guest courtyard and on the other side which I assume was where the staff walk through). We stayed in the Big 5 room, super spacious. There could be improvement by adding a chair to the beautiful office desk, I had to sit on the bed and work from there. Also no power point next to the bed on either side.

Pleasant. The place has a beautiful view of the river and the staff is very friendly. Just note that the bathroom doesn't have a door and since I was sharing with my nephew it was a bit difficult.

Aangenaam. Die plek het 'n pragtige uitsig oor die rivier en die personeel is baie vriendelik. Neem net kennis dat die badkamer nie 'n deur het nie en aangesien ek met my nefie gedeel het was dit 'n bietjie moeilik.

The most beautiful view, friendly staff and delicious breakfast. The rooms and bathrooms were neat and clean and the whole place has a pleasant atmosphere.

Die mooiste view, vriendelike personeel en heerlike ontbyt. Die kamers en badkamers was netjies en skoon en die hele plek het 'n aangename atmosfeer.

Special five-star accommodation next to the Sundays River. Everything in the River Cottage is 100% tidy (serviced daily with clean towels), the river view is beautiful and it's safe. The breakfast is amazing, full English breakfast with, among other things, fresh orange juice, home-baked fat cake, toast cake, many more. Etta, Derrick and their experienced staff make you feel very welcome and are happy to help with inquiries and excursions - thank you very much! Dungbeetle is highly recommended - we will definitely be going again!

Besondere vyfsterverblyf langs die Sondagsrivier. Alles in die River Cottage is 100% netjies (daaglik gediens met skoon handdoeke), die rivieruitsig is pragtig en dis veilig. Die ontbyt is ongelooflik, vol Engelse ontbyt met onder andere vars lemoensap, tuisgebakte vetkoek, roosterkoek, vele meer. Etta, Derrick en hul ervare personeel laat mens baie welkom voel en help graag met navrae en uitstappies - baie dankie! Dungbeetle is hoogs aan te beveel - ons gaan vir seker weer!
