Wonderful, relaxing stay.

We had a very comfortable stay. Communication was great, and the house was kitted with everything we needed and more. The host went out of her way to make us feel like it was a home away from home. We will definitely be back.

Lovely fully equipped cottage in peaceful surroundings.

The cottage was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. The surroundings are peaceful and beautiful, with views of the mountains and the apple orchards. An awesome place to connect with nature. The hosts were fantastic, friendly, and helpful. They were happy to answer all our questions about apple growing. Farming apples is fascinating! Had no idea of what goes into each apple.

Thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely review, Raymond. It was a pleasure to have you all stay with us. We love it when guests are happy and love sharing our knowledge of farming. We hope you'll be back soon.

Relaxing, fun and filled with great customer service!

The stay was awesome! The customer service provided by the host and Kevin was out of this world! The place is beautiful, rustic and clean. Loved the fact that so many back-ups were in place for load shedding: WiFi continues working, the rechargeable lights, gas stove, etc. Really loved all the attention to detail.

Thank you, Reece. You were fantastic guests. We appreciate the lovely feedback! Please do come and stay again.

Paar dae in die country.

Ons het die laaste 3 nagte van 2022 weggevlug van die geraas in die stad na die lieflike vrugte en wynarea van Elgin. Moortop het baie mooi ingerigtte huisies met 'n heerlike braai-area, beskut teen die wind. Die eienaars was baie gasvry en behulpsaam deur aanbevelings te maak oor aktiwiteite in die omgewing. Ons kon ook lekker stap op die plaas. Wonderlike ervaring.

A few days in the country.

For the last 3 nights of 2022 we escaped from the noise in the city to the lovely fruit and wine area of Elgin. Moortop has very nicely furnished cottages with a lovely braai area, sheltered from the wind. The owners were very hospitable and helpful in making recommendations about activities in the area. We also had a nice walk on the farm. Wonderful experience.

We had an awesome weekend.

The accommodation is literally flawless. Clean, beautiful linen and room mist/shampoo/conditioner etc. provided. Lovely views around the cottage and very cool braai area. Our kids was safe and could run around in the courtyard. Wood was provided and great security. 5km away from everything (shops, railway market etc). Rowena was always available and very friendly and welcoming.

Thank you for such a lovely review, Leatitia. I'm so glad you had a good time here and felt your children were safe and carefree on the farm. Thank you for choosing to stay with us over your birthday weekend. I do hope you'll visit us again soon.

The Granny Smith cottage was perfectly cosy and homely.

When we requested a cot for our toddler, Rowena delivered it and set it up so quickly. Elgin is a beautiful place and we look forward to returning to Moortop with our friends and family soon. The setting is perfect, the showers are great and the beds are super comfy.

Die kothuis het als wat jy benodig met 'n lieflike private braaiplek. Daar was lampies vir tydens loadshedding en ons het baie vriendelike diens gekry.

Lekker gekuier en onstpan, wifi het goed gewerk en ons was lekker naby aan plekke in die area.

A lovely setting for a weekend away with friends.

We enjoyed the cozy cottage and the beautiful Spring garden! The deck offered a perfect view of the braai and orchards beyond, while the inside fireplace was most welcome during the chilly evenings. The cottage kitchen offered everything we needed, and extras, like the blankets next to the fireplace, were a lovely touch! Although Panorama Cottage is in close proximity to the other Moortop Cottages, the setting still felt secluded and offered a welcome escape. Rowena was a great host and our whole experience was seamless and very enjoyable!

Dit was prentjiemooi en so ontspanne by Moortop Cottages.

Moortop Cottages is absoluut pragtig, skoon en baie netjies. Die huisie is so goed toegerus met al die nodige goed. Die dekor is verskriklik mooi en dit is prentjie mooi op die plaas. Rowena, die eienaar, was dierbaar en so behulpsaam. Ons sal graag weer daar wil gaan bly.
