Enjoyable experience, lovely old cottage.

Lovely cottage, a pleasant stay. Buy your braai and firewood in Robertson on your way in. Wood from the local shop does not burn.

One for the books.

One awesome stay. Tranquility at its best, away from the busy city life. The little cottage is cute, and we enjoyed the fireplace at night. Shower water was warm. And a comfy bed.

Good historic offering sufficiently modernised to enjoy.

We thought the offering based on a historic building was fine. It was clean and had sufficient facilities. Just had to watch your head. The house is understandable, but they may need to do something about the hedge at the garage to yard gate. I scraped my head twice. Otherwise, it was great.

Cottage is lovely. A bit overpriced when compared to our other 3 stays on our trip. Communication from the owner was not good. Ilze, who unlocked for us, was lovely.

One of my best Lekkerslaap stays enhanced by the ambiance of the town, the rural setting and the friendly people. An absolute privilege to live in an officially recognised, heritage cottage! Loved the low door frames even though I bumped my head many times. It taught me to adopt a stooping statute for the rest of my life!

Absolutely loved it. The fireplace was a bonus on the cold nights!

Klein paradysie in McGregor.

Die kothuis is uit die 1800's en is baie oulik. Die enigste vreemde ding is dat die badkamer geen deur het na die hoofslaapkamer nie maar slegs 'n gordyntjie. Die res van die huisie was gerieflik en goed ingerig. Die stoep met bank, hangmat en pragtige tuis was die wenner vir my. Ek het heeldag in die hangmat lê en boeklees terwyl ek na voëlgeluide kon luister. Loopafstand van restaurante (probeer die prego by The Courtyard!). Ons het dit baie geniet.

Little paradise in McGregor.

The cottage is from the 1800s and is very cute. The only strange thing is that the bathroom has no door to the master bedroom but only a curtain. The rest of the cottage was comfortable and well appointed. The porch with sofa, hammock and beautiful home was the winner for me. I lay in the hammock all day and read books while I could listen to bird sounds. Walking distance to restaurants (try the prego at The Courtyard!). We enjoyed it very much.

Uiters aangename kuier in 'n pragtige, karaktervolle kothuis.

Die kothuis is silwerskoon met dekor wat pas by die historiese gebou en bydra tot die outydse sjarme daarvan. Ons het die tuin wat mooi omhein is baie geniet aangesien ons hond ook saamgereis het. Die heerlike stoep met sy hangmat en lekker kuiertafel asook die houtstofie om die leefvertrek te verwarm was ook wenners. Ons kan Sunflower Cottage beslis aanbeveel.

Extremely pleasant stay in a beautiful, characterful cottage.

The cottage is spotlessly clean with decor that matches the historic building and adds to its old-fashioned charm. We really enjoyed the garden which is nicely fenced as our dog also traveled with us. The lovely porch with its hammock and cozy table as well as the wood stove to heat the living room were also winners. We can definitely recommend Sunflower Cottage.

Baie kort, genotvol. Was heerlik sonder die tegnologie. Gebond met die kinders en verskriklik baie detail in die oulike kothuis.

Attention to detail is tops. Ligging was fantasties. Baie ontspannend en perfekte plek om weer bietjie te reconnect met jouself en die kinders. Skoon en baie netjies.

Everything about the cottage was awesome except the quality of a few pillows and an issue with opening the key storage unit at entrance. Didn't bring my dog but there is ample space for your beloved pets to wander about. Disappointed to leave after 1 day due to a health issue.

Cute cottage in a quiet location.

Spent two nights at Sunflower Cottage as a family. It is a National Heritage House. A really lovely looking cottage in a quiet road. Loved hanging out on the stoep out back. Fairy lights and hammock a nice touch. Had everything we needed. Linen was clean. Has an alarm system. Beds were comfortable. There were a few little issues, but have addressed these with the owner and she has noted them. Some really good restaurants in the area. Highlight of our stay was the Donkey Sanctuary.

Absoluut rustig en sjarmant!

Die cottage is presies wat ons nodig gehad het. Die wonderlike groot stoep is egter onuithoudbaar warm gedurende die dag as gevolg van die deurskynende dakplate. Die cottage was wel heerlik koel binne. Baie dankie - sal weer kom inval!

The cottage is exactly what we needed. However, the wonderful large veranda is unbearably hot during the day due to the translucent roof sheets. The cottage was really cool inside. Thank you so much - will pop in again!

Heerlike wegbreek!

Lieflike kothuis, silwerskoon en netjies en goed toegerus. Geleë in 'n stil area van die dorp. Die groot stoep en tuin agter is hemels. Ek sal baie graag weer kom, en langer bly!

Die kothuis was pragtig. Die bed en beddegoed baie mooi opgemaak! Alles was pragtig skoon en kombuis goed ingerig. Evie was 'n bondeltjie sonskyn wat ons ontmoet het met ons aankoms. Sal beslis weer terug wees!

Sielvoeding.

Besonderse atmosfeer, pragtig gerestoreer - modern-antiek. Rustigheid van die pragtige tuin en heerlike kuier agter maak dit wegbreek alleen of met ander wonderlik. Ou boustyl sorg vir koel skuiling in die snikhete. Kan net indink hoe cosy dit in die winter met die kaggel binne sal wees. Sal vir seker terugkeer keer op keer.

Soul nourishment.

Special atmosphere, beautifully restored - modern-antique. Tranquility of the beautiful garden and lovely walks in the back make it wonderful to get away alone or with others. Old building style provides cool shelter in the sweltering heat. Can only imagine how cozy it will be in the winter with the fireplace inside. Will definitely return again and again.

Peaceful and quiet.

In summer an air conditioner or at least a fan or two is needed. Also we missed a microwave, even a small cheap one. The little cottage was very clean, neat and tidy. Evie was very friendly and helpful, even waiting for us to arrive after a flat tire. The bed linen was of very good quality. In all, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back for more visits. It is the perfect place to go and recharge the batteries.
