Calming, relaxing and peaceful.

Perfekte plek om bietjie te rus.

Ons het vreeslik baie lekker gebly die naweek. Altus was baie bedagsaam en het ons baie welkom laat voel. Die plek is baie netjies, skoon en so goed uiteengesit. Die klein dingetjies maak die plek baie kosbaar.

Perfect place to get some rest.

We had a really great stay this weekend. Altus was very thoughtful and made us feel very welcome. The place is very neat, clean and so well laid out. The little things make the place very precious.

Warm gasvryheid, gerieflike verblyf en baie ontspanne.

Ons het 'n ongelooflike verblyf by La Maison Cottage in Cradock gehad en is opreg dankbaar vir die wonderlike gasvryheid wat ons hier ervaar het. Van die oomblik wat ons bespreek het, tot die dag wat ons vertrek het, kon ons duidelik sien dat daar met soveel sorg en aandag aan detail na gaste omgesien word. Alhoewel die eienaar self nie die naweek daar was nie, het hy steeds gereeld opgevolg en seker gemaak dat ons gemaklik is en niks kort nie. Daardie persoonlike aandag en opregte omgee het ons regtig spesiaal laat voel. Dit is selde dat mens so 'n hoë vlak van gasvryheid ervaar, en dit het ons verblyf net nóg meer besonders gemaak. Die kothuis self was pragtig skoon, netjies en uiters gerieflik, met alles wat ons nodig gehad het om lekker te ontspan. Die yskas was goed gevul met heerlike drankies en daar was 'n verskeidenheid soetgoed – 'n klein, deurdagte bederf wat regtig gewys het hoeveel moeite hier ingesit word om gaste se verblyf spesiaal te maak. Ons verlaat La Maison Cottage met net mooi herinneringe en 'n diep waardering vir die uitstekende diens wat ons ontvang het. Baie dankie vir 'n wonderlike ervaring – ons sal beslis weer terugkom!

Warm hospitality, comfortable accommodation and very relaxing.

We had an incredible stay at La Maison Cottage in Cradock and are truly grateful for the wonderful hospitality we experienced here. From the moment we booked, to the day we left, we could clearly see that guests are looked after with so much care and attention to detail. Although the owner himself was not there for the weekend, he still regularly followed up and made sure that we were comfortable and had everything we needed. That personal attention and genuine concern really made us feel special. It is rare to experience such a high level of hospitality, and it made our stay even more special. The cottage itself was beautifully clean, tidy and extremely comfortable, with everything we needed to relax. The fridge was well stocked with delicious drinks and there was a variety of sweets - a small, thoughtful treat that really showed how much effort is put into making guests' stays special. We leave La Maison Cottage with nothing but fond memories and a deep appreciation for the excellent service we received. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience – we will definitely be back!

Gemaklik en stylvol.

Die ongelooflikste lekker halfpad oorslaap verblyf gewees. The ns het heerlik geswem en gebraai. Daar is niks wat die huis kort nie. Van 'n baie gerieflike honesty bar en eetgoed tot 'n noodhulp kussie. So stylvol. Ons stop weer daar.

The most incredible and enjoyable half-way stopover. The ns had a wonderful swim and braai. There is nothing the house lacks. From a very comfortable honesty bar and snacks to a first aid pillow. So stylish. We will stop there again.

Baie dankie, Altus. Ons het dit vreeslik baie geniet! Alles was tops!

Ons tyd by La Maison Cottage was sonder twyfel 15/10! Vandat ons daar gearriveer het tot dat ons vertrek het, is ons op die hande deur Altus en die span gedra. Ons kon nie vir beter gevra het nie.

La Maison is 'n weggesteekte juweel in Cradock. Sal vir seker weer daar gaan en aanbeveel. Plek is modern maar klassiek, baie spasie en netjies. Veilige parkering. Appreciated their attention to detail and all the extras we received. My son finished the homemade rusks in one go.

Baie ruim en elegante verblyf in die ou gevestigde deel van Cradock.

Hierdie is sekerlik een van die heel beste verblyfopsies in die Oos Kaap. Uitstekend toegerus en baie netjies in alle opsigte. Dis geen agterplaas woonstel nie, eerder 'n baie stylvolle en private huisie op 'n mooie erf. Altus is 'n galante heer wat sy gaste se belange op die hart dra.

Very spacious and elegant accommodation in the old established part of Cradock.

This is certainly one of the very best accommodation options in the Eastern Cape. Excellently equipped and very neat in all respects. It's no backyard apartment, rather a very stylish and private house on a beautiful plot. Altus is a gallant gentleman who has his guests' interests at heart.

Die beste wat ons nog ervaar het!

Vooraf reëlings en ontvangs was uit die boeke! Die eienaar en sy vrou was uiters behulpsaam, vriendelik en baie gasvry. Die verblyf self is naby aan volmaak. Eenheid puik toegerus met net die beste. Swembad heerlik gerieflik om in af te koel. Sal absoluut aanbeveel - Altus is propvol omgee en gasvryheid. Die beste wat ons nog ervaar het! Meer as wat mens kan verwag!

Net eenvoudig briljante verblyf.

As daar nou een plek is waarheen ons baie beslis sal terug gaan, dan is dit La Maison. Die plek is regtig baie netjies en eintlik gee die foto's nie weer hoe absoluut netjies die plek is nie. Baie vir seker sal ons weer daar oorbly as ons ooit weer in Cradock is. Hoogs, hoogs aanveveelbaar. Van 'n volledige snack bar met wyn en koeldranke tot 'n stukkie biltong wat vir ons gewag het. Dis nie aldag dat ons dit kry met al ons rondryery deur die land nie.

Just simply brilliant accommodation.

If there's one place we'll definitely be going back to, it's La Maison. The place is really very neat and actually the photos do not reflect how absolutely neat the place is. We will definitely stay there again if we are ever in Cradock again. Highly, highly recommended. From a full snack bar with wine and soft drinks to a piece of biltong waiting for us. It's not every day that we get that with all our driving around the country.

Luxury home, away from home.

Great central location, beautiful surrounding garden. Altus is the most friendly and helpful host ever, lovely, and made a great first impression of the cottage. Everything about the cottage was exceptional. It was clean, stylish, and roomy with excellent service. We had a lovely braai on the big stoep overlooking the sparkling pool and beautiful garden, which made us feel at home. I would rate this accommodation a definite 4 stars. It is great value for money and the service was attentive and excellent. The cottage itself was well equipped and comfortable, with an honesty bar/shop. We are delighted with our stay and hope to be back for a longer visit in the future. This is absolutely my number one choice for Cradock/Nxuba accommodation.
