Nature lovers paradise and food for the soul. Beautiful setting and great host!

We had the best time! The location is wonderful - on the doorstep of the Tankwa National Park with a beautiful landscape around the cottage itself. A picnic at the dam below is a must as it is tranquil and a lovely spot to watch birds. In general, just a paradise for nature lovers as there are so many beautiful flowers and other flora. We loved the cottage, which is simple but with lots of character and charm. One has everything for a complete break from all the city's noise. Our hostess could not have been more welcoming and hospitable, and her brownies are a must-have. Tankwa Cottage is a special place and one we will definitely return to. PS. Great WiFi.

Peaceful, remote and relaxing stay!

We had a great stay! The views are wonderful from every room. Nice and spacious cottage, very well equipped. Our host was very attentive and provided us with wood for a lovely fire on a chilly evening.

Tranquil, charming, well-equipped house with beautiful sights.

We enjoyed our stay very much! The house was charming, and we appreciated the fact that there was a bag of wood for the fireplace. The kitchen was well-equipped, and the WiFi was surprisingly fast and reliable for such a remote area. The house is also at an ideal location for watching the stars - this is the reason we stayed at the Tankwa cottage, and we were not disappointed! I would love to visit again, and can highly recommend the Tankwa cottage!

Real Karoo farm experience.

Don't expect luxury. The double bed was very uncomfortable (old spring technology). The shower was very small and wasn't functional. Otherwise, a real Karoo farm experience. Make sure you check in during daylight. Evening makes it very hard to find the house. All part of the experience. Still, we loved it.

Tankwa Cottage 's response

Thank you for your feedback, we appreciate it and we have fixed the shower, and luckily there is a lovely bath if the shower is too small. We will look into the bed situation.
