We, as a family, enjoyed the peaceful cottage. We needed a breakaway and Mountain Rise Cottage was that and more. The harmony, the peace, and the cleanliness was all we needed. Will definitely book in the future and for longer!

We really enjoyed our stay. Was quiet and cozy. Just what we needed for a quick breakaway.

The only thing we missed was an iron. There was a board but no iron. Other than that we were more than happy with the place. Wi-Fi in the bedrooms were also very slow.

Mountain Rise Cottage 's response

Hi Lavinia,

I am so sorry you had no iron. We have one available but as a number have previously gone missing, we now keep this until a guest requests it. I will update this in our welcome pack so guests are aware the iron is available.

This was truly one of the best places we have stayed in. Our hosts were amazing from the minute we made the reservations. The cottage has everything one would need, is upmarket, clean and extremely comfortable. Ideal for that holiday getaway. We will most certainly be booking there on our next visit to the Cape. I can 110% recommend Mountain Rise Cottage.

Hi Irene. Thanks for your review.
The kitchen and tea towels were in the bottom drawer in the kitchen. With regard to the crockery and cutlery we allow for around 8 place settings as our maximum number of guests is 5.
But we will look at this again and possibly add more.
Hope to see you again.

Privaat en baie rustig op jou eie. Soos 'n tuiste weg van die huis.

Baie still en rustig kon kom en gaan soos ons wou. Het vol DStv gehad wat 'n super plus is met WiFi. Hys altyd beskikbaar as jy iets nodig het, het volle toegang gehad tot die swembad.

Baie ruim en ten volle toegerus.

Ons het by Mountain Rise gebly vir 5 nagte. Die hoofslaapkamer se bed is ekstra lengte en slaap baie lekker. Die TV is 'n groot plasma-TV met SD DStv View en dit was bietjie teleurstellend, want het kwaliteit beeld verwag. Maar daar is 'n kleiner TV met skerper beeld in die slaapkamer wat ons meeste gebruik het. Die TV-kamer se glasdeure het nie gordyne nie en is nie privaat nie. Stortkop kon ook van 'n beter kwaliteit wees vir 'n sterker vloei om vinniger te kan stort, maar die res is alles uitstekend en waarde vir geld gewees. Ligging is perfek en gasheer is baie gaaf en respekteer jou privaatheid.

Translate to English.

Very spacious and fully equipped.

We stayed at Mountain Rise for 5 nights. The main bedroom's bed is extra long and sleeps very well. The TV is a large plasma TV with SD DStv View and it was a bit disappointing as I was expecting quality picture. But there is a smaller TV with sharper picture in the bedroom which we used the most. The TV room's glass doors do not have curtains and are not private. Shower head could also be of a better quality for a stronger flow to be able to shower faster, but the rest has been excellent and value for money. Location is perfect and host is very nice and respects your privacy.

Dear Marisa. Thanks for your comments. I am happy to tell you that we have replaced the 50' rear projection TV with a large new LCD flat screen. This has excellent quality. We have also installed new Hi-Fi so you can get great quality sound playing DVDs, CDs or using the built in tuner.
