Die plekkie se naam sê presies wat dit is!

Absoluut 'n awesome plekkie! En Jill, die eienaar, is die vriendelikste mensie! Sal die plekkie enige tyd aanbeveel.

Privaat, gesellig en uitmuntende uitsig.

Een aand was te kort! Dis nou 'n plekkie waar ons sommer permanent sal kan afsaal. Die cottage bied privaatheid, een van die beste uitsigte en het alles wat mens nodig het om rustig te kuier. Hoogs aanbeveel.

Private, cozy and excellent view.

One night was too short! It's now a place where we will be able to saddle up permanently. The cottage offers privacy, one of the best views and has everything you need to relax. Highly recommended.

Beautiful and relaxing.

It was a wonderful stay, clean and comfortable. I loved having a view from the house and spending time on the deck. Close enough to the city but feels like you're in the middle of nature.

Rustig, vreedsaam, privaat en veilig.

Dit is baie rustige plekkie, jy het geen geraas en dit is baie privaat, jy kan jou batyerye hier laat laai. Beste bed ooit met 'n pragtige uitsig oor die see en bos. Baie voëls en stilte as jy op die dek sit. Aanbeveling: Die dek het die hele dag son, miskien kan hulle 'n gedeelte met skadu net bedek.

Quiet, peaceful, private and secure.

It's a very quiet place, you don't have any noise and it's very private, you can charge your batteries here. Best bed ever with a beautiful view of the sea and forest. Lots of birds and silence when you sit on the deck. Recommendation: The deck has sun all day, maybe they can cover a section with shade net.

Salig en rustig met 'n pragtige uitsig.

Ons het heerlik gebly en sou beslis nog 'n keer daar kon bly. Dit is so 'n oulike plekkie. Die kamer en linne kort miskien net 'n bietjie soos 'n room en linnensproei, want die klam weer en ou meubels gee 'n vreemde reuk af.

Blissful and peaceful with a beautiful view.

We had a wonderful stay and would definitely stay there again. It's such a cute little place. The room and linens may just need a bit like a cream and linen spray, as the damp weather and old furniture give off a strange smell.

Over the Edge Cottage is a delightful place to stay, with a special atmosphere and is decorated in a very personal way.

The cottage overlooks a valley and is very peaceful, with a lovely garden and rich birdlife. We had everything we needed and our host, Jill, was nearby for contact if necessary. A special place - we'll definitely be back!

Most magical little cottage with amazing views. Peaceful surroundings and very private. Can strongly recommend.

Cottage is close to great restaurants. Try these: For breakfast - The Grass Roof (farm-style eatery set in a beautiful garden). Cocktails lunch/dinner - Barnacles (lovely sea-view).

Asemrowend mooi.

Wat 'n juweel. Ek kan Over the Edge vir enige iemand aanbeveel. Dit is mooi genoeg vir die ideale wittebroodbestemming ook. Naby genoeg aan die middestad om aktiwiteite te gaan doen, maar ook ver genoeg om die natuurskoon in te neem. Die eenheid se krag was af toe ons daar aankom, a.g.v. 'n boom wat op die kabels geval het en die gasvrou, Jill, was fantasties met die hantering daarvan.

Breathtakingly beautiful.

What a gem. I can recommend Over the Edge to anyone. It is beautiful enough for the ideal honeymoon destination too. Close enough to the city center to do activities, but also far enough to take in the scenery. The unit's power was off when we got there, due to a tree fell on the cables and the hostess, Jill, was fantastic in dealing with it.

Unique beautifully decorated open plan cottage on a large property outside of port Elizabeth.

My young son and I stayed over a long weekend. Loved sitting on the balcony looking out at the sunset on the ocean or drinking tea in the misty mornings listening to the loeries. Easy drive to Sardinia Bay Marine Reserve's beach. My only critique is that the bed is very very firm and the ocean air had left sticky residue on surfaces and utensils.

Over The Edge Cottage 's response

Hello Samantha, thank you for your kind review, we enjoyed having you and your son stay with us and hope to see you again. And thank you for mentioning the sea air, we have not had a report of that nature before and will ensure to stay a step ahead of it in future. Kind regards, Jill and Olivia.

Vriendelike personeel, eenheid nie juis geskik vir besigheidsbesoekers nie.

Eenheid is met slegs die basiese benodigdhede toegerus. Braaigeriewe moet verbeter. Dak oor buitearea indien dit sou reën. 'n Dakwaaier word aanbeveel. Van die beddegoed was gevlek gewees. Slegs een stel handdoeke was beskikbaar. Te min plek om die nat handdoeke op te hang.

Friendly staff, unit not exactly suitable for business visitors.

Unit is equipped with only the basic necessities. Braai facilities must improve. Roof over outdoor area in case it rains. A roof fan is recommended. Some of the bedding was stained. Only one set of towels was available. Too little space to hang the wet towels.

Hello Louwrens,
Thank you for your review and feedback. We take great pride in our consistent high ratings by guests and are most disappointed to see that perhaps our cottage was not suited to you. Guest feedback is always welcome and most useful, as we always strive to provide guests with enjoyable stays, ensuring good memories of their time with us. We are in the process of installing an awning over our deck area, as well as building a little boma area for braaing. We have taken your other suggestions into consideration.
Kind Regards, Jill and Olivia.

Very nice cottage. Unfortunately the day we were there it was extremely windy so we didn't get to appreciate the deck but the view would be lovely on a nicer day. Jill was very kind and helpful.

Dis die mooiste uitsig oor die see. Eks mal oor die koel klimaat en die stoep wat uitkyk op die see. Die bed wat regoor die skyfdeur is en na die see uitkyk is ook 'n bonuspunt.

This place is unbelievably beautiful. It's tucked away with trees and you feel like you're in your own little world. The view from bed is incomparable. All the little details of it made it feel very homey. Relaxing, tranquil and amazing experience! I rate 5 stars and would absolutely go again!
