We had a wonderful relaxing time. Would definitely be back.
Well appointed self catering facilities. All the kitchen utensils that you could need, including an air fryer. The establishment was very clean and well serviced daily. The unit is private and peaceful and the view is amazing. Very comfortable bed and good quality linen and towels. Ease of entering and leaving the estate with codes provided by the host. Jess is a very accommodating hostess.
The weather in Nottingham Road is very unpredictable and hail common during storms, so we would have felt more comfortable had a carport been provided.
This is a charming, tiny open plan 1 room apartment with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The space is beautiful, very clean, and incredibly cosy. It is thoughtfully arranged and feels welcoming and relaxing. It’s the perfect little spot for a peaceful getaway with your spouse or partner, especially if you’re looking for a quiet and intimate place to unwind.
During our stay, a bracelet went missing from our room. I had left it on the coffee table before we went out for lunch. When we returned, the room had been serviced and the bracelet was no longer there. Initially, I assumed it may have been moved somewhere else in the room during cleaning, but after thoroughly checking everywhere, it was nowhere to be found. This was quite concerning, as the bracelet had been in plain sight before we left. The only change during that time was that the room had been cleaned. Unfortunately, it appears that the bracelet simply disappeared, which was very disappointing and upsetting.
No aircon or ceiling fan
Lizelle and I have visited the Midlands more times than we can count, over 26 years, Gowrie farm and Little Prestwick, is an extension of how positive growth should look. Once again it was simply spectacular!
The views, the aesthetics, the cleanliness and comfort
The location and setting of this property is fabulous. Centrally located to all the restaurants, golf courses, sightseeing, shopping and nearby villages and towns.
We loved everything about this venue.
A gorgeous, elegant studio apartment in the most beautiful setting. We loved the little garden and having a cup of coffee while we watched the sun come up. Great security, shops, coffee and breakfast spots nearby, and lovely welcoming hosts. You will have everything you need for your visit!
Nothing, it was perfect.
It was comfy and had everything you needed for a quick stay
Most amazing place, and exceeded all expectations. Perfect arrangements and communication - Thanks Jess! Will stay longer next time to optimize the lovely views, location and facilities.
Everything was perfect!

Very comfy room with everything

The host was extremely accommodating and was able to make special arrangements for us.
I liked everything.
So Comfortable, and all amenities were perfect. Stunning view of the dam and surrounds. We enjoyed our short morning walk, to either the clubhouse at Gowrie, or The Village Cafe for our morning brew and breaky.
Very well located, great views, and spotlessly clean. We would definitely recommend Little Prestwick if you are planning to visit The Midlands/Nottingham Road area

The property was clean and well maintained. Amazing view of the dam from the living room area. The room is private and easily accessible. The host is kind and communicates well and instructions for check-in are easy to follow. I would definitely recommend!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful apartment. Every detail was thoughtfully considered, making it a truly comfortable and enjoyable experience. My husband and I were in the area for a wedding, but honestly, the highlight of our trip was being able to relax and recharge in this lovely property. The cleaning staff were sweet, friendly, and always available, which made us feel very well taken care of. Jess, our host, was exceptional—responsive, welcoming, and attentive to our needs. We also received a lovely welcome basket upon arrival, which was an unexpected but greatly appreciated touch. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat. Thank you, Jess, and the team, for making our stay so memorable!

Easy no fuss collection of keys from a lock box next to the door. Massive comfy bed, spotlessly clean. Overall a lovley place to stay. Glad we found it and we will be back
It’s in the most tranquil and serene estate that I had no idea it existed in Nottingham Road. It has spectacular views of a dam and the countryside.
I liked everything.
Great location. Very pretty.
Very attentive and helpful host

everything was perfect. Jess is an amazing host. the place is quite and beautiful
there is nothing to not like about the place, everything was perfect from collecting the keys to the stay
The convenience to restaurants and shops in the area. The room has a beautiful outlook on Gowrie farm.
Really enjoyed where the place is located. It's definitely worth the price. Felt like we stayed in luxury. The view from this place is absolutely amazing.
Everything was good so I don't have any complaints.
Beautiful location and environment, in a lovely setting, Gowrie Farm.
Small issues, not worth mentioning.
The host Jess was great and very attentive and welcoming, the views of the dam and the sound of the birds are peaceful. I would definitely recommend this place to reset the mind.
The apartment is situated on the most stunning little hill that overlooks a dam and hills in the distance of Gowrie Farm. The facilities are exceptionally clean and the kitchen is well stocked and kitted, we honestly felt like we were 'at home'! Jess and her team are super friendly and available to contact throughout the stay if there is something needed. The bed was super comfy and the interior designed to perfection (as an Interior Designer myself, I truly adored this!). The tranquillity and peace of the place left us rejuvenated and definitely wanting to visit Little Prestwick again in the future. Thank you Jess and team for making our stay amazing!
Peaceful
Lovely decor, so modern. Absolutely everything you need for a comfortable stay. The electric blankets are a bonus. Great view of the dam. We also stayed at their sister property - Dornoch, which was equally good.
Love the style of the property very comfortable and had a great view to lookout onto.
N/a
Beautifully appointed with attention to detail. Overlooks a pretty dam and valley. Very big, very comfort bed. Electric blankets appreciated as night got icy cold. Full dStv bouquet on TV appreciated for busy sports afternoon.
It was very clean, with all the amenities available and more. There was a gas heater which made our stay more comfortable in the cold weather.. coffee station with a variety to choose from and fresh milk in the fridge. Loved the modern style of furniture and the overall view
Loved everything about the property
Neat and beautiful

The studio was beautiful. Everything was so comfortable and thoughtfully put together. The bed was very comfortable and we slept so well as it was so quiet - and with really good security for the estate. The bathroom was nice and modern. The views were stunning.
Nothing - it was all perfect.
We loved everything about the place, beautifully decorated, lovely linen, huge bed, well equipped kitchen, full DSTV package and netflix, great views. so cosy and just perfect for a couple. We will definitely be back.
Lovely studio accommodation. Beautiful views. Jess was the perfect host.
Nothing all good.
Place furnished so beautifully
Jess is great host. Spot is great and Noxy housekeeper also excellent. Luyanda is a very welcoming gent. All-round place is great. 2 min from gowrie town, 3 min from fourdoun and neatherwood
Nothing,
Little Prestwick is really such a beautiful spot, with an incredible view. The hosts have thought of all the details, big and small, to make your stay super comfortable and relaxing. Jess was very accommodating and helpful with check in and check out and we'd highly recommend this spot for a country getaway. It is also nice and central in Nottingham road, so you can grab a breakfast, lunch or dinner nearby, making it very convenient.
Amazing views, stunning apartment.
Everything was perfect
Nothing at all
It was an amazing and beautiful stay with absolutely stunning views . Even though it is an annex and attached to the main house, you had your own private space. Very modern and elegant finishes.
There was nothing that I could fault however as a recommendation I would suggest that a small little deck be installed just outside the lounge sliding door so you can sit on the balcony deck. The stoop just outside the door is quite high and if you put a chair on the step it is a tight squeeze.
The room has everything you need. Very neat and tidy
Nothing, all was perfect
We stayed for six nights while visiting family living in the area. Everything was tip top and Jess went out of her way in being a great host. The rooms being serviced each day was a big plus. I especially loved the planting along the path leading to the front door and the views of the water were so peaceful.
Nothing
We had breakfast at The Gowrie Farm Golf Club Restaurant, food was great .
Nothing , everything was awesome.
Everything!
Jess welcomed us with such warmth and the house is exceptional
Location was excellent. The unit is very well equipped.
The unit needs a deck to sit outside and admire the beautiful view.
Location was perfect and central to all the beautiful places around Nottingham
Needed to adjust hot water in the shower even though the temperature/ tap was on hot. Sometimes water would be cold. Just needed to be adjusted from time to time so you can get hot water.
My host was very kind, and my accommodation was clean
Very spacious and quiet. Stunning views.
The couch is a bit uncomfortable.
Beautiful location and everything was just lovely.
Little Prestwick is amazing,it's calm,quite and private it's a home away from home, the view is gorgeous. I'm most definitely coming back soon. We enjoyed our stay🤌🔥
The unit is comfortable, beautifully decorated, very well equiped and with a stunning view! The estate in which it is located is beautiful, tranquil and so relaxing!
The inside of the property were excellent, beautifully decorated and fully equipped. The appliances were top quality and I have to compliment the wifi and the fact that we had no problems during load shedding. It started snowing and that enhanced the atmosphere.
The main problem was that this property is an annex to the main house. During our stay the owner was in the UK, so we had total privacy. If the owner/s would have been there, I would not be comfortable with the idea. The house and annex is built on a beautiful farm/estate and the view spectacular, but there is no patio, no stoep or veranda. You cannot have a proper braai, as there is no braai facility, only a gasbraai on the lawn with two plastic chairs and a table. The whole idea of such a place is to spend time outdoors, but without a private patio, you will not be able to enjoy the natural beauty and the view. There is no privacy if you are outside the cabin. Secondly, the loose stones used as a pathway creates a problem for a person like me who walks with crutches due to my disability. Thirdly, the couch’s seating area is very low and I struggled to get up. The single chair is also smallish and low.
Close to school and safe
Excellent place to stay
Only thing that could be better is the couch in the living room, small and uncomfortable.
We loved everything about Little Prestwick during our recent 4-night stay. The view is exceptional, all the fittings and kitchen equipment are new and in perfect condition, and the inverter meant we were hardly aware of any load shedding. The bed is enormous, with lovely cosy warm bedding, and so comfortable! Nottingham Road is the perfect place from which to explore all directions of the Midlands Meander, and Little Prestwick the perfect base for this.
Nothing - everything was top quality.
Great location, beautiful view. Neat clean studio apartment. Electric blankets were much appreciated as it was freezing.
Was smaller than expected, a bath tub would have been nice. Just a gas heater to heat the room , an aircon would have been great.
Everything was perfect
Everything … beautiful finishes and plans were in place for load shedding as they had a backup supply which is invaluable. This spot has all the extras that one appreciates and the view is incredible. Very secure estate.
Would have liked remote to have access via the golf entrance … saying that we never asked for it so maybe it was a possibility.
Cosy,beautiful, well equipped, comfortable for couples
Maybe add a dresser or bench at beds end for a luggage or bags add a small fireplace
great location, peaceful and quaint
location in Gowrie farm
