Rustige plekkie net buite Bredasdorp.

Quiet place just outside Bredasdorp.
No power, so everything runs on gas, but there are enough candles and battery lights to illuminate everything. There are zebras, moose and springboks on the farm, so it creates a peaceful atmosphere if people want to go for a walk.

Beautiful place! Very well located; close enough to Bredasdorp, for groceries, and coastal towns like L'Agulhas for a quick visit. The cottage is well appointed, with everything you could need - including a nice big fridge/freezer. Canoes were a nice plus! Would definitely recommend this place.

We had a very nice stay. It's a beautiful old house - and tells its story. Wonderfully located on a peaceful farm with a lovely view - far enough from the town for quiet, close enough if you feel like eating out. There are a few things that could have worked better.

Unforgettable weekend.
The weekend was memorable for several reasons. The house was so beautiful and nicely furnished, thank you very much! We felt so at home and took in and appreciated the beautiful surroundings. It was also the weekend of 25 September 2023 floods in the Western Cape. Where we could not see the river on arrival, we woke up on Monday morning 25 September to a river coming down with tremendous speed and pushing into the game camp. All way to get to us was with a tractor. All contact was via WA. Cecilia and Boeta looked after us so well, even sending us food with the tractor. This was next level hospitality. The customer service stars above are not enough, would give them a 10 out of 5. We will never forget it and we will return again for sure.

Blissful tranquility for proper shutdown time.
Old Sam's Cottage is the ideal option for anyone looking to get away from the hustle and bustle. The cottage is beautifully and comfortably furnished for a short or longer stay. The view from the stoep and braai area is lovely, and great for hanging out until late at night. We walked long distances on the farm roads with the most beautiful views, and also went to cool off with the canoe by the river. Although the cottage has no electricity, it was well appointed with gas and cordless lights. Close to town and attractions, if one wants to go shopping or explore the area. The hostess, Cecilia, was available throughout and made an effort to make us feel at home.

Souls rest.
Got extra lights. Also got flowers to say welcome. Hostess very friendly - makes you feel very at home. There one really rests the body and soul. Enjoy the donkey - really makes you feel like you are away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Lots to see in the area. We were through to De Hoop and saw a lot of wildlife, on top of the moose, zebras and springboks we saw at Old Sam's. The WiFi was easy to "log in" all the time on Friday, but struggled on Saturday - I still give it a 5 as it wasn't a necessity for us, it was just an extra - so this saw no need to mention for the Cecilia. Everything was very nice! On the contrary, we went for a total getaway. Will go again.

Speechless and breathless, it's really bittersweet and peaceful.
It was a weekend I would definitely want to have over any time, seeing wildlife, canoeing and thoroughly enjoying a beautiful farm and going for walks too. Also experienced for the first time how a lightning bolt strikes a power pole, as well as where lightning strikes and splits in 2. Plekkie is really very beautiful and quiet which makes me sleep soundly in the evenings, as well as we spent 2 evenings sitting and talking on the stoep and where we were also a little spoiled with night stars.

Wonderful getaway out away from the city.
We were pleasantly surprised with how nice we stayed in this small but well equipped cottage. It was cold and rainy when we were there, but the bedding was lovely. There is a gas heater that we didn't even need to use. Be prepared for there being no cell phone reception at times, although there is free Wi-Fi. For half of the 3 days we were basically without signal. The donkey warms the water, you just have to be patient - can take up to 3 hours. So, if you love all the city facilities of electricity, this might not work for you, but for us it was great. Must be great if you can swim and row in the river in summer.

The cottage is perfect for anyone who wants to relax. We were there on a cool weekend but would love to go again for longer so we could use the canoes. The house was nice, but we were left a bit in the dark. There were no directions or explanation of the gas stove and donkey (to heat shower water). And a shortage of candles and a warm blanket. There was also no tea or milk just an empty milk container. I did not get feedback on any emails prior to our booking. Fortunately, the tranquility, beautiful surroundings, neat house and nice bedding make up for the shortcomings. Will definitely go again!

We enjoyed our weekend at Old Sam's Cottage but unfortunately this place will never see me again. The shower was one too many for me! Boiling the donkey is easy and it makes the water deliciously warm. In the bathroom, the story is quite different! There is no pressure in the faucet, so the water just drip-drip through the shower head - making it virtually impossible to shower properly. We took a tin bucket from the kitchen, filled it with water at the sink and then used it to rinse ourselves. The hot water is brown and it feels dirty - there is sediment (or something else, I don't know) in the water that is left behind on your skin and your hair. It's horrible! The shower's water didn't drain either, so after one person "showered" the bathroom floor was soaking wet. We also missed a hand towel in the bathroom. The description of the place mentions that there is an indoor braai (i.e. fireplace), but this is incorrect. There is only an outdoor braai - at least it is covered and sheltered from the wind. At least I can say that the place was nice and clean and all the kitchen accessories we needed were there. I suggest future visitors take their own flashlights and lighters as the ones provided are not enough.

We had a very nice stay. Wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy the cottage and area more.
The cottage is very nicely equipped and for those in need of a getaway from the city, power and TV, this place is ideal. I think it can be very nice between the game. Just want to recommend that the route to Old Sam's Cottage as well as the directions need to be better and sent with confirmation of the booking. The distances on the confirmation note is completely incorrect. From the Bredasdorp side it's approximately 6 km after the tracks and 600 m before the Kars river. From the Swellendam side it's approximately 600 m after the Kars river. Turn into the gravel road at coordinates S34º29'28.6" E020º05'24.4". As soon as you've turned off you keep straight until you get to the double windmill's gate on the right hand side. At the gate there are two signs with Old Sam's Cottage on. Coordinates of Old Sam's Cottage is S34º29'42.0" E020º07'07.7".

Old Sam's Cottage 's response
Deon en Elsabe, baie dankie vir jul begrip met die veldbrand wat op ons plaas gewoed het. Julle was wonderlike gaste en ons sien uit daarna om julle weer op ons plaas te ontvang.
Groete,
Boeta en Cecilia.

Ons het 3 baie lekker nagte hier deurgebring. Baie gerieflik naby die dorp maar tog privaat.
