Beautiful, comfortable and well worth visiting!

A lovely cottage, beautifully decorated, very comfy bed and within easy walking distance from the town. Marcelle was a great host; we had everything we needed for our overnight stay. Will definitely be staying there again!

Perfekte ligging en spasie, net wat ek nodig gehad het.

Heerlik gebly! Sal dit aanbeveel en self ook weer hier oorslaap. Perfek vir een persoon of 'n paartjie. Mooi, netjies, als wat mens nodig het, veilig, vriendelike gasvrou.

Rustig, gemaklik en aantreklik.

Ons verblyf was baie aangenaam. Die kamer en badkamer is skoon en keurig gemeubileer en alles werk. Dit is in 'n stil buurt en uiters geskik vir een of twee aande se verblyf. Dit is egter jammer dat gaste hulle voertuie in die straat moet parkeer.

If I could award more stars I would!

What you see in the photos is exactly what you get. A lovely, comfortable, space which is well-situated with a view of the mountains. This unit cannot be beaten for value for money. The rusks and different coffees and tea were much appreciated. We received a warm welcome from Marcelle. Although our car was parked on the street, it wasn't an issue and was quite safe. I would recommend Mountain View Cottage to anyone.

Very nice stay, just would have liked more "coverage with all the open windows and glass doors. Very good location and view. Would definitely recommend.

It would have helped the mood if the car could stand inside the yard and not outside in the road.

Very good sized bedroom with good views and a friendly host. We would go back without hesitation.

Liked the little extras like Sally Williams nougat on each bed, flowers in the bathroom and bedroom. Super bathroom. Convenient to town could easily walk. Would suggest hosts consider blinds at the entrance to the cottage as in summer we thought the sun would wake one up earlier than perhaps we would want.

Unbelievable

An incredibly beautiful and spacious cottage with a fantastic view. The water and chocolate in the fridge was a great surprise. Franschhoek is a very hot place and for us an air conditioner would be very welcome.

A peaceful and relaxing getaway.

It was such a treat to stay in Marcelle’s Mountain View Cottage. It was clean, beautiful and had wifi and Netflix too. We are very fortunate to have had such a wonderful experience in Franschhoek in such a convenient location, close to the main center. A true gem, thank you Marcelle for having us.

Beautiful space and very accommodating.

I stayed over for business and checked in quite late. Was a great space to crash after a long day of work in the area. Worth every penny and value for money. Thank you.

Die gasvrou was besonders vriendelik en behulpsaam.

Die vertrek en badkamer is in 'n moderne boustyl met 'n pragtige uitsig oor Franschhoekberg. Die meubelment is netjies en pas by die moderne boustyl van die huis. 'n Effektiewe alarmstelsel help dat Gautengers nog rustiger slaap. Die omgewing is netjies en baie stil. Ons sou ons verblyf van twee nagte met nog 'n nag wou verleng, maar ander besprekings het gewag.

The hostess was particularly friendly and helpful.

The room and bathroom are in a modern building style with a beautiful view of Franschhoekberg. The furniture is neat and matches the modern building style of the house. An effective alarm system helps Gautengers to sleep even more soundly. The environment is neat and very quiet. We would have liked to extend our two night stay by another night, but other bookings were pending.

Check-in was friendly and efficient and the unit was clean and welcoming.

We enjoyed our stay and appreciated the small touches like fresh milk, risks and filter coffee. The unit is within easy walking distance of the centre and the surrounding area is picturesque and peaceful. We were lucky to have very good weather.

Lieflike verblyf

Marcelle het ons baie vriendelik ontvang en laat tuis voel. Die ligging van die woonstel is letterlik stap afstand na die dorp self en 'n oulike klein dam vir so bietjie ekstra natuur. Woonstel is modern ingerig met 'n lieflike klein balkon wat op die Franschhoek klippe teken die bergpas uit kyk. Ons kort verblyf was aangenaam.

Lovely stay

Marcelle received us very kindly and made us feel at home. The location of the apartment is literally walking distance to the town itself and a cute little pond for that bit of extra nature. The apartment is modernly furnished with a lovely little balcony that looks out onto the Franschhoek klippe pass. Our short stay was pleasant.

Baie netjies met luuksheid, prakties en ruim spasie. Was aangenaam verras om ruim kamer met lessenaar en kragpunte op regte plek te kry.

Sou verkies het om my kar binne te parkeer maar Franschhoek is heel veilig. Badkamer baie ruim en baie kopruimte vir stort. Sal enige tyd Mountain View Cottage aanbeveel en Marcelle was baie aangenaam en kamer pynlik netjies.

Very neat with luxury, practical and spacious. Was pleasantly surprised to find a spacious room with a desk and power points in the right place.

Would have preferred to park my car inside but Franschhoek is very safe. Bathroom very spacious and plenty of headroom for shower. Would recommend Mountain View Cottage anytime and Marcelle was very pleasant and room painfully tidy.

Daar was geen aanduidings hoe om daar te kom nie, geen naambordjie op die huis aangebring.

Geen klokkie nie, dis nie 'n cottage nie, maar n kamer met 'n en suite.

Mountain View Cottage 's response

Hi Piet,

I am sorry to see your review and would like to reply to your points:

You mention not getting directions, however on booking, the relevant directions are sent to each guest by the booking agent.

As a host I always make contact with my guests to give them information about their check in. I was unable to make contact with you before your arrival, as the mobile number that you listed on your booking was incorrect.

You planned an early arrival, but made no attempt to communicate that with me, so when you arrived mid morning, the room was in the process of getting cleaned from the previous guests. I offered the room to you at midday, but you declined that.

On arrival you were noticeably upset regarding the on street parking (this is listed on my page), I tried to explain that your car would be safe and that we often (as well as neighbours) leave their car parked on the street. You eventually accepted the parking situation after phoning TravelGround to complain. We have an alarm on the property which is armed in the evening. The remote for the alarm is given to all my guests at check in. This remote has a panic button to ensure the safety of my guests.

You mention that I do not have a name board on our wall, but the house number is very clear and the street name is also indicated.

I have noted that you expected a clock in the room, however, after much deliberation, I have decided not to get one, as most guests travel with mobile phones or wrist watches.

You rated me very poorly on location and value for money, but that is something one would check when they book. If a listing is out of your budget or isn’t convenient in terms of location one should not book there.

I always try and strive to making my guests stay as comfortable as possible. I do this by supplying fresh milk for tea and coffee, fresh flowers in the room, shower gel in the shower, rusks/biscuits for morning tea, to name just a few.

Kind Regards,
Marcelle

Comfort and luxury combined in a modern setting.

Marcelle welcomed us and explained a few details regarding the cottage. But nothing prepared us for the cottage itself. Modern, clean, beautiful linen and towels. Variety of coffee and tea! Milk and water in the fridge. Beautiful smelling hand wash and lotion in a big bathroom with big shower and bath. Huge comfortable bed, beautiful views. And the little extra (chocolate covered nougat) on the bedside tables was just super thoughtful! The location is central - if it wasn't so hot we would have walked everywhere.Thank you Marcelle for making our stay in Franschhoek so enjoyable! We will definitely be back.
