Comfortable, quiet, wildlife, beautiful, tree-lined, in a ravine, neat unit.
Premises are small but very neat with everything you need. Everything is there, except a wardrobe, but understandable with the unit's size. Enough wood is provided by the owner, the place is clean and everything works. The "shower" and hot water facilities work with gas, as well as a small stove for food preparation along with the braai. The braai is nice and big and there is also a built-in fireplace (we didn't use it because it's summer). It averaged 35 degrees over the weekend and the unit, being under trees, was cool and comfortable. It's relatively close to the tarmac, the dirt road there is acceptable and can be driven with any vehicle (just not a Porsche), but normal vehicles are okay. It's close to Haenertsburg, the Magoebaskloof + hotel and the nature is beautiful. If it's just the 2 of you who want to get away for the weekend, this is a really nice little romantic spot. There is no TV or WiFi, you go there just to get quiet again.

The perfect getaway: Cozy accommodation in beautiful surroundings.
The Croft Cottage was the ideal getaway for us as a young couple. The unit is extremely neat and well equipped, with a nice cozy atmosphere, especially when the fireplace is crackling. The cottage is painstakingly neat and clean, with a spacious and functional bathroom. The location of the unit is also excellent, remote from the larger conurbation, but central to most attractions around Haenertsburg and Magoebaskloof. The famous Zwakalala brewery is a stone's throw away, and the savory restaurant Pot 'n Plow just around the corner. Check-in and check-out were easy and self-help, with clear instructions. It didn't cause us any problems. In addition, there is also additional security in the form of an alarm system for us scared Gautenians. The immediate surroundings are beautiful and there is so much to do and see, and lovely walks on the site itself. The Croft Cottage is definitely good value for money, and we can recommend it with confidence and will certainly return again. Thank you very much.

Ons sien uit daarna om u weer te verwelkom!

Nicola was very helpful with information and responded quickly to questions and messages. The Croft Cottage was tidy, well equipped with everything needed and was peaceful with rich bird life and beautiful trees. We have been to the gardens and would love to see them in the spring. Your water is very nice there. We will see you again for sure.

Best place to get away from noise, rush and people. Excellent hostess in Nicola.
Sequoia's Meadow cottage is ideally located within easy reach of all attractions in the vicinity of Haenertsburg. The house is well equipped, the environment in which it is located is very private with a beautiful natural garden to walk in and a nice pond within a stone's throw from the front porch. The hostess is very pleasant and welcomed us and made us feel very much at home. It should be on every nature lover's "must do list". There was a container of milk available upon our arrival and enough coffee and tea for the four days we spent there.

We enjoyed the accommodation very much, it was a small beautiful cottage and can honestly say we have no complaints. I would have liked to know that there is no oven, it did not realise it from the photos. Cottage and linen were clean and very neat. There are quite a few spiders, but we are in the bush so we took it into account. The retreat is perfectly located with plenty to do within 15 mins drive. We really enjoyed the brewery.

Beautiful neat well equipped unit, unfortunately located next to a busy dirt road
Friendly reception, beautiful neat unit, well equipped. But the unit is located on the busy dirt road no fences or safe parking, the owners house is fenced with electric fences, we checked out earlier because we felt very unsafe. I would recommend not booking the Croft cottage. Rather the unit at the dam. Lovely setting for walking and photography.

Extremely disappointing and false advertisement.
Unfortunately, the photos and information on the website do not state that the Croft Cottage (one of the three cottages you can book) is at the intersection between the main road and Sequioa Garden Retreat's entrance road. Although the unit is extremely modern, spotless, neat and elegantly decorated, it is with extreme disappointment that we came here. The view from Croft Cottage is the dust road, with the noise of traffic from the main road behind you. Along with that, you can expect the cars' headlights to shine through the bedroom window when the noise also wakes you up. Not to mention the neighborhood dogs barking non-stop throughout the evening. There is no view here of the beautiful gardens or the water depicted in the photos found on the various websites and our booking is a classic result of false advertising. If you book one of the other units, your experience will be completely different by nature, because there is a view of water and beautiful gardens. As mentioned, the unit itself is extremely clean and tidy and excellently equipped. There is no oven available and the kitchen and bedroom are all in one single open room, which makes kitchen smells less pleasant in the bedroom. The only serious criticism of the unit itself (beyond the poor location of this particular unit) is the horrendously uncomfortable mattress, which makes a cement floor feel comfortable and inviting. Our attempt to flee the city for a getaway to the promised romantic quiet amid the adventure advertised was met with utter disappointment. I would recommend you don't book the Croft Cottage when you want to come here. If you book one of the other units, your experience will be very positive.

Beste Ulrike,
Baie dankie vir die terugvoer. Dis 'n jammerte dat julle nie jul verblyf geniet het nie.
In ons opinie, is die voorstelling van die geriewe akkuraat. Ek vermoed dat jy na ons Meadow kothuis se foto's gekyk, wat geleë is by 'n dam met tuin- en water uitsigte. Die Croft het ook tuine rondom die kothuis met uitsigte van n skuur met grasperk en azaleas, wat duidelik in die foto's gesien kan word. In die beskrywing van die kothuis verduidelik ons dat die plek 'n oopplan leefvetrek het, wat ook gesien kan word in die foto's.
Ons adverteer nie 'n oond in die Croft kothuis nie, maar ander fasiliteite soos 'n mikrogolfoond en gasstoof is geadverteer. Die bed in die Croft kothuis is 'n splinternuwe ortopediese bamboes bed en van 'n goeie kwaliteit handelsmerk, Dynamic Bedding.
Ons is jammer dat ons buurt se honde julle gepla het, ons het hulle nie gehoor nie, maar as julle ons kon laat weet van die situasie, sou ons met ons bure gepraat het.
Ons verstaan ook dat die kothuis naby die hoofpad geleë is; ons is besig met die beplanning om 'n muur en hek vir die ingang en om die kothuis te bou om motors wat verby ry se geraas te verminder en vir gaste meer privaatheid te gee.
Ons sal julle graag weer wil akkommodeer in die toekoms.
