Romantic little farmhouse cottage

Absolutely brilliant! Lovely cosy place

The bed was very small for 2 people.

'Stoep' Serenity

10.0

We enjoyed being surrounded by nature and animals out of the busy hustle and bustle of coastal towns but still close enough to go cool down in Arniston or Struisbaai if you're up for a little roadtrip. A beautifully decorated cottage with a sweet back story. With a few solar panels, batteries, and battery operated lights and fans we couldn't be more comfortable. The 'stoep' was our favourite! Thank you for a lovely stay!

Absolutely amazing!

Old Sam's Cottage is our go to place for peace and quiet. We just spent 3 nights there and loved every moment of our stay. On arrival, we saw buck and zebra. Wow, experience!!! The next evening, we had a zebra right in front on us. We also saw so many other smaller wild life. Absolutely awesome!!! Most people would spend thousands to experience what we had! The cottage is well appointed and very clean. We will hopefully be back soon.

A scary location. Scary place

Nothing

I didn’t even check in. After I saw the place and its location, I felt very unsafe as a young woman. I had to cancel and look for another place.
