    I would have liked a microwave in the unit just to warm food as it's not self catering and a bit out off town.

    Lovely quiet place. Our host Graham was very friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend Falling Waters.

    The gravel road especially if it rained but we were lucky that we were driving a bakkie which was high otherwise if you drive a low car you might be stuck in the mud.

    Communication before arrival on what to do on arrival was very clear. The schedule for load shedding was shared with us upfront for us to be able to plan. The breakfast was amazing especially homemade croissants & scones. The host, Heather & Doug were welcoming and warm.

    Close to nature

    • Deluxe Double Room
    • Stayed 2 nights

    The distance from any other facility was quite far & after the heavy downpour we really battled on the road when we left as it was treacherous & we almost lost control of the car. The outdoor furnishings could do with an upgrade.

    We enjoyed our stay & Heather provided a lovely breakfast which was delivered to the room. The room itself was very comfortable & the electric blanket was amazing with the cold snap that occurred. Doug assisted us with ice for our drinks & both of them were very welcoming, warm & friendly. The facility itself is off the beaten track & is totally isolated- the views are lovely. It is very peaceful but could do with a bit of an upgrade. We wish Heather & Doug lots of success with this new venture & we are certain that the venue will get a breath of fresh air.

    We needed a little more light. Most of our stay there was during loadshedding and we only had one very tiny light in the room. It was very difficult arriving back in the pitch dark and had to use the car lights to see where we were going. Perhaps a light outside that stays on during loadshedding and one inside.

    The breakfast was great

    The water pump doesn't work when there's loadshedding therefore you can't take a shower until the electricity returns.

    The tranquility. The breakfast. The fireplace in room 1 actually warms the adjoining room 2, which is perfect during loadshedding

    The braai outside was awesome, but the drum could have done with a few holes in it to help the air flow.

    The cottage was awesome, a lot of personal touches, making it feel cozy. The breakfast was totally scrumptious, presented in a very unique manner.
