Baie goeie ruim woon eenheid met alles en meer wat jy nodig het.

Baie goeie opsie met alles wat mens nodig het. Voorsien selfs eetgoed in die yskas terwyl dit eintlik self-catering is. Baie goeie vriendelike en hulpvaardige eienaars, gaan uit hul pad om mens te wil help.

Very good spacious living unit with everything and more you need.

Very good option with everything one needs. Even provide food in the fridge when it is actually self-catering. Very good, friendly and helpful owners, go out of their way to help people.

Ons het oorgeslaap na 'n funksie in die omgewing.

Die cottage was skoon en netjies, en die ontbyt was onverwags voorsien. Ons het ons verblyf baie geniet.

Home away from home. Vriendelike gasheer en -vrou, skoon en netjies.

Ons het so lekker daar gebly, dat ons nie wou huis toe kom nie. Die eienaars gaan uit hul pad uit om alles so gerieflik moontlik te maak en ons is begroet met 'n bak vol vars vrugte, 'n verskeidenheid van ontbytpap; tuisgemaakte beskuit; 'n koffiemasjien met koffie, melk en vrugtesap in die yskas, asook eiers, gesnyde ham, kaas en muesli met jogurt. Die tuin is pragtig, die eenheid skoon en netjies. Een van die beste plekke waar ons nog in Gauteng gebly het. Baie dankie.

Home away from home. Friendly host and wife, clean and tidy.

We had such a good time there, that we didn't want to come home. The owners go out of their way to make everything as comfortable as possible and we were greeted with a bowl full of fresh fruit, a variety of breakfast porridge; homemade biscuits; a coffee machine with coffee, milk and fruit juice in the fridge, as well as eggs, sliced ham, cheese and muesli with yoghurt. The garden is beautiful, the unit clean and tidy. One of the best places we have ever stayed in Gauteng. Thank you very much.

Baie lekker gebly. Die eenheid is baie netjies en skoon met goeie gehalte bedlinne en bed. Daar was heerlike bederfies vir ontbyt elke dag. Karl en Tracy het ons baie welkom laat voel. Sal beslis weer die eenheid bespreek in die toekoms.

Waarde vir geld. Netjies. Stil en veilig.

Ons het baie lekker gebly by Olive Branch Cottage. Die woonstel is baie netjies en skoon en die area is baie rustig en stil. Baie oulike selfhelp-ontbyt pakkies wat voorsien was. Was baie beïndruk met die plek. Ons sal nie weer iewers anders slaap as ons weer in Johannesburg-area is nie. Jy kry regtig meer as wat jy voor betaal.

Value for money. Tidy. Quiet and safe.

We had a great stay at Olive Branch Cottage. The apartment is very neat and clean and the area is very peaceful and quiet. Very cute self-help breakfast packs that were provided. Was very impressed with the place. We will not stay anywhere else if we are in the Johannesburg area again. You really get more than you pay for.

Perfect family accommodation close to Rynpark Retirement Village.

Perfect for regular family visits to Rynpark and friends and activities on the East Rand. The cottage is spacious with a sitting room/bedroom, separate dining room, kitchen and bathroom. Everything one would expect for a home away from home! Located in lush Rynfield, close to golf courses, restaurants and recreation areas.
