Featuring garden views, Soutelande Eco-Hideaway - 2min Drive to Pristine Beach offers accommodation with a garden and a balcony, around 700 metres from Sardinia Bay Golf Club. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is set 9 km from Walmer Country Club.

The owner and host, Maud, was very kind and thoughtful. She was proactive and clear in her instructions on how to find her property and how to check-in. Despite us getting there later in the evening, she met us upon our arrival and walked us down to the rental property, then gave us keys to the unit and a gate remote. Her cottage was spotlessly clean and cheerfully decorated; it is also elevated on a little hill and feels a bit like you're in the tree tops which was lovely. You are surrounded by trees and grass, and in the morning a very friendly group of chickens and a curious peacock or two will come see what you're up to if you walk around outside. Maud also brought over a great little "picnic" breakfast basket in the morning, which we really really enjoyed. There is also an amazing beach just a few minutes drive down the road from her place; it was rather windy the day we were there, but we saw plenty of other people enjoying walks along the shore.

    A charming, cozy cabin equipped with nearly everything you'll need. The hosts are incredibly helpful and supportive, even allowing us to leave our luggage when they had other guests arriving. The breakfast was fantastic and plentiful enough for all four of us. She truly made the place feel like home.

    Breakfast was absolutely amazing - excellent cooks. Such a fabulous variety and well prepared by lovely staff. Location is superb. Close to everything but you wouldn’t even know it due to the secluded, cosy and extremely secure nature of the lodge. Gorgeously quaint and homely and intimate! Would highly recommend.

    The bedrooms were very clean and comfortable. We spent just a night so we were limited for time so we didn’t get to spend much time outside which I hoped for cos it was really beautiful. The lounge area was very cosy with a fireplace which is what we needed cos it was a cold winters night when we arrived. This hotel was definitely good value for money.

    Such a wonderful stay! Roy was an incredible host who made us feel very welcome and accommodating. Attention to detail was evident at every turn, not forgetting even the smallest of details! The room was immaculate, modern (yet cosy) and the high ceilings and natural light from the many windows bought about such a serene feeling. Our cottage included a back up supply for electricity for the dreaded load shedding. Truly a memorable and wonderful stay, with wonderful hosts who truly make you feel like you are the most special customer!
