    Nothing to dislike. Was great

    A quaint and cozy cottage ideally situated close to all amenities and very well equipped. A wonderful logfire, smart tv, gas stove and solar lighting all contributed to a convenient stay. We happened to be there during the floods, and our hosts were amazing. They were continually checking to make sure we were fine and if we needed anything and updating us with road closure information, etc. They went above and beyond. Also gave us great advice re local restaurants and activities.

    Buchu is a charming historic house in a lovely location with a pretty garden with views to the mountains and the Church Steeple. The Veranda at the back was particularly good. There were welcome extras like tea, coffee, rusks and cooking ingredients. The owners were very helpful and friendly. Good books and info in the house. Felt like proper Stanford home. Can highly recommend.

    Great location and within walking distance of restaurants. The common is across the road and provides an open space for people to walk dogs and kids to play. The WiFi worked during all the power outages which was very helpful.

    There was nothing we didn't like. At a push I'd say possibly the movement sensor light around the pool area at night. We would have preferred a light that stays on all the time, but I suspect we just didn't know how to adjust this!

    Centrally located and a 2 min walk from pretty much everywhere, this delightful little cottage is a great space to wile away the hours, to relax and to enjoy a weekend away from the city. Although so close to shops and restaurants, it was dead quiet all around and we felt like we were miles from civilization. Small, but well-equipped kitchen, with lots of new utensils and appliances and well-stocked on the small things one uses to whip up a quick meal. I loved the pool and garden area and the big, beautiful shady trees all around this and the braai area. Out teens loved the Wifi, the netflix, and the board and card games, and my husband loved the spacious rooms and comfy bed. We even found an iron, which was a nice surprise. Stanford can get very hot in Feb, but the house had enough fans and ventilation so that we remained comfortable at all times.

    Nothing to add as we were very happy with our accommodation!

    We loved our stay in this divine, super clean little cottage in the heart of Stanford with easy access to lovely walks and the main road. The kitchen is really well equipped and the beds super comfortable, the pool defnitely a win. We loved sitting under the willow tree watching the sunbirds, so quiet and peaceful. Our host Collette was very attentive and easy to communicate with.
