Relaxing, beautiful cottage.

Absolutely amazing - the location is just stunning, and the cottage is simply beautiful. One of my favourite places visited so far across the world! Rhodes was incredibly welcoming and was just the icing on the cake.

Absolutely amazing!

If I could rate Under Oak Cottage a 10 star, I would definitely! Absolute perfect getaway for some peace and quiet. Elsabe was great; she sent instructions to enter and met us at the gate to welcome us with a smile. Rhodes, who assisted us immediately to show us how everything worked, was great. At check-out, Rhodes was on time and even gave us a thought to leave with. It was an absolute pleasure to stay there, well worth your money.

We had an amazing time staying at Under Oak Cottages.

The customer service was friendly and prompt. The facilities were neat and tidy, and we received a complimentary bottle of wine, which was a nice surprise! We enjoyed the peaceful scenery of the surrounding farm, and we had lovely, comfortable, and spacious rooms. Everything was perfect! We will definitely be back again and would highly recommend Under Oak Cottages to anyone wanting to enjoy a perfect summer stay.

Welcoming, professional, clean, beautiful, hot tub, farm experience.

The welcome to Anne's Favorite Cottage was warm and professional. The cottage was clean and beautifully decorated with attention to detail. The cottage had everything we needed from luxurious bedding and towels to filter coffee and rusks. The amazing bottle of wine waiting for us on the table was a nice surprise. The hot tub is great entertainment for children and for soaking all stress away. The soft green grass under the oak is perfect for lazy afternoon naps. The dry river wasn’t much to look at as it was mid-summer; we will have to return in the winter to fully experience the river picnic spot. The dam is in a separate camp that needs to be unlocked for guests not staying at the cottage on the dam’s edge. If we stayed longer, we would have explored this option. Our stay fell in the week; this meant early morning farm operation, tractors driving up and down during the day, and helicopter crop spraying. This did not bother us, but visitors should just keep this in mind if they are sound sensitive.

Ontspannend en gerieflik.

Die uitsig is asemrowend mooi en tussen vrugteboorde, die huis is prakties met alles wat jy benodig en het 'n heerlike swembadjie wat ook verhit kan word. Die wilde diere is 'n aangename verrassing.

Rhodes, die bestuurder van die chalets, was awesome.

Ons het ons tydjie terdee geniet. Die privaatheid wat die akkommodasie bied, vir 'n wegbreek vir 2, is amazing. Plekkie is skoon en netjies en tot hout was beskikbaar vir ons gerief.

Comfortable, quiet, hot tub and mountain views.

We stayed in Josphine cottage and our friends in Rosemarie cottage. Absolute peace and quiet in the heart of the Orchards. The cottages are very comfortable, double bed, seating area, indoor table and chairs with an indoor fireplace to keep warm. Kitchen supplied with all necessary equipment, including coffee, tea, sugar, milk and homemade rusks. Two different outdoor braai areas with braai grid + stand and table plus chairs. The hot tub was the best for the cold evenings to soak and get warm. Rhodes and his co-worker were professional and polite.

So it was not my first time at Under oak but my first at Commice and simply loved everything about that unit, views, and location. And the best was the catch up with Rhodes since our last stay.

Skakel af en kom rus in die natuur.

Dit was 'n heerlike naweek by Under Oak Cottage. Rustige atmosfeer in die natuur met baie besoekplekke naby. Anne's Favourite is baie goed toegerus vir selfsorg en die "hot tub" buite is 'n wenner. Netjies, skoon en goed versorg.

It was a lovely weekend at Under Oak Cottage. Peaceful atmosphere in nature with many places to visit nearby. Anne's Favorite is very well equipped for self-catering and the "hot tub" outside is a winner. Neat, clean and well maintained.

Fantastiese wegbreek!

Elsabé weet net hoe om haar gaste te bederf. Klein goedjies soos gratis koffie, tee, melk, suiker en beskuit, asook 'n bottel wyn op aankoms, laat mens sommer tuis voel. Rhodes het ons verwelkom en hy is so 'n aanwins vir Under Oak Cottages. Hoop om hom volgende keer weer daar te sien. Rosemarie Cottage is baie veilig, jy sluit ook jou kar agter 'n hek toe. Die warmswembad is ook fantasties en mooi uitgeteël. Daar is ook 'n piekniekplek onder by die rivier, hoop om volgende keer daarvan gebruik te maak. As jy wil ontsnap van die geraas van die stad, is Under Oaks net die plek vir jou!

Fantastic getaway!

Elsabé just knows how to spoil her guests. Little things like free coffee, tea, milk, sugar and biscuits, as well as a bottle of wine on arrival, make you feel right at home. Rhodes welcomed us and he is such an asset to Under Oak Cottages. Hope to see him there again next time. Rosemarie Cottage is very safe, you also lock your car behind a gate. The hot pool is also fantastic and nicely tiled. There is also a picnic area down by the river, hope to make use of it next time. If you want to escape from the noise of the city, Under Oaks is just the place for you!

Fantasties, salig en rustig.

Baie dankie aan Elsabe en haar regterhand Rhodes vir die aangename ontvangs by Under Oak Cottages Vrydag 08/09. Elsabe jou Josephine eenheid is pragtig. Rhodes jou vriedelikheid en behulpsaamheid was uitstekend. Ek gee 5 sterre, want daar het niks kortgekom in die cottage nie en die veiligheid en rustigheid was uit die boonste rakke. Ons sal beslis weer van Viljoensdrif se akkommodasie gebruik maak.

Many thanks to Elsabe and her right hand Rhodes for the pleasant reception at Under Oak Cottages on Friday 08/09. Elsabe your Josephine unit is beautiful. Rhodes your peacefulness and helpfulness was excellent. I give 5 stars because nothing was missing in the cottage and the safety and tranquility were top notch. We will definitely use Viljoensdrif's accommodation again.

Beautiful cottage on a working farm. We had a good rest and the hot tub made it even more relaxing.

The cottage is well-planned to give privacy, security, and protection against the wind. It had everything that we needed and is close enough to town.

What a gem — fantastic stay!

A stunning cottage, very clean had everything and more, the peace and quiet was bliss. Hot tub was a real treat. The help with check-in is very efficient — Rhodes the caretaker was very friendly and helpful in explaining everything and helping with the hot tub fire. Our host Elsabe made us feel right at home. We were spoiled with a complimentary bottle of wine and even delicious rusks and coffee. We'd highly recommend it and will definitely be back.

Quiet, relaxing weekend away from the busy city.

We enjoyed a wonderful stay in Rosmarie, which is very private and cosy, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Coffee, tea, rusks, salt and pepper, toiletries, hairdryer, wifi, complimentary bottle of wine. Also well equipped for loadshedding (I think we heard a generator in the distance), but also plenty of rechargeable lights and candles. We would have liked to have a little more view of the surrounding orchards and mountains. Also, make sure to ask Rhodes to turn off the pool pump if heating up the hot tub, else it will not get hot enough.

Good day,
We did not get ahold of Jodi to provide him with the check-in details. He did not reply to our messages through Lekkeslaap. They arrived, but without the information, they should have known upfront.
