Beside Still Waters

This was by far the best Garden Route vacation ever and it's all thanks to Rod and Hydie of Besides Still Waters. The Warm Welcome and the Hospitality we experienced with them both was Breathtaking. Of the various Resorts and Accommodation venues visited in our past experiences, Besides Still Waters topped them all with the "Besides Still Waters Personal Touch" we could not have asked for anything better. The unit was so cosy, fully functional, all we required for self-catering.

We took a fat chance, not finding any reviews for Beside Still Waters on Safarinow, and it paid off! The self-catering cottage is pristine. We felt like we were the first people moving into this home that the owners lovingly built for themselves a few years ago, before they started on the bigger house, which now doubles as their residence and B&B. Every window from the cottage offers an interesting view on either the estuary with its abundant bird life or Rod and Heidi's brightly flowering and inviting garden where you are free to explore. And every season there is something new - from the avo tree/treehouse bearing about 1000 fruit every winter to an abundance of herbs, especially in the summer. The fireplace worked so well on the cold winter night that we were staying there, we eventually had to start opening doors to let some cooler air in! All finishes are quality, the kitchen is well-stocked with every utensil you need to cook up a storm. A perfect stay. Thank you.
