Reviewed Sep 5, 2026Nice sized property. Pet friendly. Hostess friendly.
Furniture needs to be updated. Walls in bedroom very dirty. More than 10 notices all over the property with do’s and don’ts. Pillows head oil smell. Definitely not luxury. Basic but has everything for ‘n short stay. Open shower for a family unit is not helpful

Reviewed Feb 8, 2023Cottage was self-catering therefore no breakfast. The location of Vincentia Odd Cottage is perfect and within easy access to various amenities. It was home away from home. Susan was at hand to give updates on loadsheding schedule. Free WiFi was fast and reliable. I was so happy with the advice on routes for morning and afternoon jogging. The Cottage is spacious and immaculate all the time. Security is excellent. Checking out was smooth. Thank you Susan.
Cottage met all my expectations and beyond. There is nothing that I did not like about the Cottage.

Reviewed Jan 5, 2023Lovely setting. Pet friendly. Medium sized cottage, had everything one needed. Would have been nice to have dining table with chairs and table with chairs in courtyard with a small braai area, but besides that, perfect for overnight. Nicely decorated, plenty of interesting reading material. Small kitchen fully equipped, with breakfast coffee, tea, biscuits and milk. Ice in deep freeze. Security cameras in garden and along path with parking behind the security gate. Close to a shop that also has a take away section. Would give shop a 2 out of 5, but has what one needs.
No dining chairs, no braai
