C’est La Vie

Judy was welcoming and we had total privacy. The cottage is a stand-alone unit on a hillside with amazing views!

Excellent location, and most importantly everything was clean.

Such a lovely spot and friendly owner Judy with sweet dogs as well. We made good use of the fireplace at night and the outside table for sunny cups of tea. Look forward to visit again in summer to enjoy the views from the garden.

The cozy fireplace kept us nice and warm...beautiful scenery we took a small stroll down to the river with kids was so beautiful 😍 loved how friendly Judy's dogs were they guided us down to the river. Everything was neat spacious comfortable...thanks to our host Judy for the complimentary milk rusks and firewood! We will definitely be back soon

Judy really looked after us and gave it her personal touch! Great location for my sons hockey tournament at Michael House Added bonus- beautiful dogs on the property coming to visit every morning

Judy was a great host, and we really enjoyed our stay. The property was well kept; unit was nice and clean. The dogs were the highlight of the kids stay with 'small' Charlie being the favorite of the stay. Thank you for hosting us, we will definitely visit again and highly recommend C'est La Vie!

I am looking forward to visiting 😀 again.

Quite and peaceful ✌️

Quiet, clean+ comfortable, good view

Everything. The location, the cottage and provisions that made it feel like home. Best of all was that Judy was most welcoming and responsive to our requests.

Nothing.

Judy is such a caring host. Her attention to small detail really makes it feel so homely. We even had cranberry biscotti when we arrived. The cottage was beautiful and clean. Thank you so much!

The cottage was comfortable clean and had all the goings we needed for a comfortable stay The host was amazing, attentive and helpful. She took good care of us and even shared home made jam 🙂😋

It might help to have a camera and buzzer at the gate to improve access to the property

As a family that enjoys staying at new and interesting places, we're constantly looking for accommodation that is clean and comfortable. C'est La Vie is a great location with a superb host. One can tell that every aspect and amenity has been catered for and well thought out. We will definitely be back on our next visit to the area.

Very clean and had everything we needed. Highly recommend.

Too many flies but can be sorted out. There was Raid in the unit.

Beautiful setting, friendly and welcoming host and all the facilities you need for a weekend away.

Very helpful and friendly hosts and a beautiful, well-appointed and comfortable cottage., plus privacy and beautiful surroundings.

Beautiful unit with breathtaking views. Judy was an awesome host, we had coffee, sugar, milk and wood to use. Close to Michaelhouse for sport. Modern unit equipped with everything you need for selfcatering. Clean, safe and well looked after. Could not have asked for a better place to stay. Small kettlebraai was perfect size and cleaned daily.

I was hoping for a tumbledryer that I thought the unit had. But made use of the drying lines next to the unit for my son's cricket clothes.

Beautiful views, clean rooms, friendly host and close to main restaurants and exploring areas. Loved that there was a fireplace because it was chilly while we were there.

I liked everything

The attention to detail (Orchid in the bathroom). Fresh milk in the fridge, rusks in the jar, tasteful decor, plenty of firewood supplied for those cold evenings.

Not a didn't like... more a suggestion. Maybe an extra 'mud mat' for the entrance, or maybe a slab to bang off muddy feet outside the door?

Great location, very clean and comfortable.

EVERYTHING WAS GREAT!!!!!!

N/A

Beautifully appointed and close to everywhere we needed to be.

The host was very friendly and accommodating, she answered a query about something very quickly, we were left alone to enjoy with little to no interruptions, the facilities were cozy and well furnished with some nice touches like a small bottle of milk in the fridge, coffee and tea, the host supplied a high chair to accommodate our baby and firewood was available to make a cozy fire.

The inverter sound was very loud, which took away from the peace and tranquility of the area, this went quiet late in the evening and then continued in the morning, the water pressure was very low so you couldn't do things like wash dishes when your partner is showering.

Pictures were very accurate - the place was excellent

No Aircon. Fans were very good though

Easy access to amenities Cleanliness A beautiful place to unwind. Our hosts were amazing

Nothing honestly, we enjoyed every minute of our stay

The place had the most Beautiful view. Our host was very friendly. The cottage was very cosy and comfortable. The rooms were perfect and the sleeper couch was vvery comfortable. Over all a wonderful experience in a secure and beautiful environment.

The fireplace was great during the evenings, bed very comfortable & bathroom spacious with big shower. Kitchen had all the necessary amenities. Bedding, towels & unit was super clean

It was cold the first night & the heaters in the bedrooms were disconnected & so was the infrared heating in the bathroom not working either. It would have been nice if it worked, however it was really only needed for the one night as temperatures then improved

Judy was an amazing host. She was friendly, warm and welcoming and checked in on us on a regular basis. She even went the extra mile to get me the most beautiful flowers and a card for my birthday. It was such an unexpected surprise and it meant so much to me.

It was a truly perfect stay and we loved every minute. We will definitely go back.

This is such an amazing place. The house is super amazing and clean. The host really put in the extra effort to make sure we had a comfortable stay. It's such a safe and serene place.

Beautiful views, tranquil environment

Gravel road, especially at night when it’s dark.

Well equipped. Fantastic fire place in the lounge which did the trick on the cold nights.

Pristine, well located and the owners are lovely!

Nothing.

Beautiful location. Easy access. Great for walks and I assume mountain biking. Well equipped unit.

Invertor is great, except it's location is poor as it is noisy in the early mornings. A minor thing though.

Everything. Clean and had everything we needed. Accessible. Amazing hosts. A most enjoyable weekend

Stunning views, peacefulness & exceptionally wonderful owners

Nothing

spacious facility with everything you expect from self-catering. relaxed environment, nice view and friendly dogs around that kept the kids busy.

unstable signal, out of control of the owners.

It is near the main place I wanted to visit

It is far from nottingham road , so one must buy stuff to eat in advance .. This is not the owner’s fault though

Clean, spacious modern rooms, both en suite with large showers and each room has ceiling fan as well as lounge. Fyi Property is on a long gravel road (curry's post road).

Cold water was turned off due to plumbing issue - affected bathroom sinks, not showers. Obviously, it's not as bad as if it were the hot water. Small issue - Kitchen sponge provided was very old and used. Would be better to receive a new one. We had our own Two pin plug adapter - but it would be great to have one available.

This place is amazing. A pitty we only stayed one night. We got "lost" on our way there, Judy and Rob found us and we followed them to their paradise. They even towed our heavy caravan to the top (as the hill is steep and it was raining), as we got a 4x2 and they offered to do it with their 4x4.

Nothing

Cleanliness, Views, Solar backup, Beds n Linen, and the dogs... Oh, my son would also add the WiFi and full bouquet DSTV...lol

Nothing.

An amazing location with thee most pleasant hosts , the accomodation is worth it and very reasonably priced . The host was soo welcoming and helpful , place has an inverter soo didn't feel the load shedding . They also have dogs on the property that are soo friendly they kept us entertained and busy for weekend . Definitely love the place will be back there soon

Very friendly and helpful host who gave great advise on routes and sites. Spacious, neat, comfortable and well-equipped unit, even with back-up electricity supply. Great location too!

The factory in the area can, at times , be noisy when you are outside.

The view is amazing. We enjoyed the tranquility. The host was very helpful and accommodating

Nothing

The place was literally clean👌. The service was great every thing was amazing even the dogs are well trained everything was perfect

The accommodation was clean, and the view is breathtaking.

Nothing, everything was good

Location was peaceful and beautiful. Ideally situated to be close to all attractions, yet far enough away from everything to not be disturbed by the sound of vehicles or other “busy noises”. Hosts were extremely friendly and helpful (even helping us jump a dead car-battery). We loved the friendly dogs and cat that came to visit everyday. Property was clean, neat and beautiful. A short walk allows you to visit a small river running past the property, which makes for a lovely outing and photos. Property was well stocked with all the essentials.

Nothing to dislike. Everything was amazing, especially for animal lovers.

Great and beautiful location, cottage private and host were friendly and attentive, but not intrusive. Great amenities and comfy.

Nothing

My family and I were really impressed with the property. The place was neat, cozy and comfortable and even catered for loadshedding with an inverter. It’s location was convenient for us because we didn’t have to travel too far out to restaurants or Michaelhouse. The owner, Judy was absolutely fantastic and was so friendly and accommodating. We will certainly be back!

Everything was perfect.

No breakfast. Location is great

The owner was EXTREMELY RUDE to me and my family at the time of departure. We were running late to check out due to the fact that there was loadshedding and on account of my wife's birthday. Because we were late, we wanted to clean the place as a goodwill gesture so that also took time. I was happy to pay for being late but not be spiken to in that horrible manner. She verbally attacked me and my character. I cannot believe that there are still people in the hospitalty sector that has such bad character. The place is great but I will NEVER STAY HERE or recommend this place to anybody.

Very peaceful and private. A home away from home with the added benefits of beautiful views and tranquility of nature.

The cottage had everything you could need. The dogs and cat were very friendly and we loved having them! The hosts were more than generous with advice and help.

N/A

The home was clean and neat and had everything we needed for a self catering stay. Even an inverter during load shedding and a gas plate to boil a kettle.

very clean and spacious and has great bathrooms and a lovely open plan feel with two private bedrooms and bathrooms and lovely patio area. quiet peaceful lovely view and a nearby stream and pathway to take walks. the owners dogs are friendly and add a lovely feel to the property.

really there is nothing not to like. a suggestion though if I can, is to perhaps have a dishwasher installed in the kitchen. and not to sure why there were so many flies. maybe to add some citronella candles or fly traps.

the beds are super comfortable. it was very clean and host very pleasant.

Als was perfek!! Rob en Judy is lieflike mense. Dit was perfek

Very clean, friendly staff and I absolutely loved the dogs. Peaceful area, very tranquil. Loved the modern decor and bathrooms were nice and spacious.

There was an inverter in the room I slept in and the fan or something of it kept coming on and going off every so often which disturbed my sleep during the night but during the day it can go unnoticed.

location (central), views, peace & quiet. The unit has everything you need.
