Absolutely great hosts, very very accommodating, helpful and went above and beyond to make our stay amazing. The accommodation was very comfortable and everything needed was catered for. Sedgefield is a little sea side town worth visiting.

Absolutely incredible stay here! This is an amazing beachhouse on top of the hill. The photo from the balcony says it all! Place was clean and all facilities were present. Would absolutely recommend to stay here. If we had more time, we would have stayed longer (and we already spend 2 more nights here!)

A cute and lovely unit. Well equipped with safe parking and set in a peaceful area surrounded by nature. Hosts were very friendly and responsive. Looked forward to the morning visits from the pretty & quite talkative cat, Solo. :)

4.86 out of 5 average rating, 7 reviewsLake Paddocks, cozy cottage on a small holding.
I had the pleasure of calling this place home for about a month of December-January. The cottage is a part of the original stables and I loved being right next door to the paddock where two foals had been born the same week I arrived. Chickens having dustbaths, friendly dogs, horses all add to the farm ambience which is my happy place. The farm itself is situated right on the border of the national park and so the nature is pristine. I loved the setting and the location within Wilderness. it was a quiet reprieve from the central village which was jam packed with tourists, but still only a short drive to the beach and restaurants. The place itself is a stable converted into a flatlet. The kitchen and small lounge area are well equipped, clean a have plenty of sunlight streaming in. The separate bedroom is a smallish space with a double bed and was all I needed to be comfortable. The hosts are lovely people and I felt like a part of the family from day one.

Super lovely stay here :) Paul is such a friendly host and check in was quick and easy. We stayed in Rhea cottage and it was spotlessly clean and absolutely beautiful, with views across the lagoon. We had everything we needed and the attention to detail and design is wonderful. Loved the location - easy 10 min walk to town and the beach. We loved it so much we booked back in for 1 more night in No 1 cottage a few days later, which was also super lovely. Thank you Paul for our great stay :)

Entering Faith’s beautiful Airbnb is like walking into a magical wonderland! Literally every square meter is filled with inexplicable creativity. It feels like it would take years to explore it all… at least! Perfect for couples, families or groups of friends looking for a space that is quirky, fun, inspiring and comfortable. It is equipped with absolutely everything you need and more. We were honestly amazed by the space we were given, which included a separate lapa space, seemingly dropped from heaven oneself. Incredible value for money! Worth way way more than what we were charged. Faith and Len were lovely hosts. We were even given a tour of their adjacent home. A real treat which was complimented by a generous serving of Faith’s homemade chocolate brownies. Five stars don’t do this review justice. Highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wesley was a great host very responsive when asked a question. Wesleys place matches the pictures and is very spacious and the view of the ocean is breathtaking, the ping pong table downstairs was a bonus feature that my kids loved. He even recommended some great restaurants for myself and family to have dinner at. It's a 4min drive to the surrounding town and lagoon was very easy to move around. Will definitely recommend his place to anyone deciding to have a getaway in the wilderness.

We could not have wished for a better welcome. You see directly that Jeanne has put every inch of Love in this haven of paradise. Everything was available, clean and did let you feel at home. Jeanne has given us precious advice on where to eat.(Meet @Sea). and what's to do in this magnificent region of South Africa. You could not find a better stay... wished to have been able to have stayed longer. Thanks Jeanne it was a pleasure. Greetings from Luxemburg

We had a wonderful week at Rean’s place. The house is very comfortable and with everything you might need. Nolleen the housekeeper was lovely and very helpful. This house will be lovely for a big family on holiday together as each room is very private but you can still have the advantage of the rest of the house together. I’ll love to visit again. Thank you Rean and kie!

Guesthouse in Brenton-on-Sea
5 out of 5 average rating, 4 reviewsLux Garden Cottage Beach Aloes @ Brenton on Sea
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Brenton-on-Sea, thanks to our incredible host! She went above and beyond to make our New Year’s Eve special with thoughtful touches like sparkling wine, and our dog was spoiled with everything we could have asked for. The accommodation was perfect, offering all the amenities one could hope for, including Nespresso machine and pods, multiple TVs (incl. in every bedroom), and even an extra storage room stocked with beach gear. The location couldn’t be better – just a short, easy stroll to the beach and local eatery, which made it so relaxing to enjoy the ocean without needing to drive anywhere. Our host’s warm hospitality and attention to detail made this a memorable getaway for our family of four (plus a fur kid), and we can’t wait to visit again!

Beautiful views of the lagoon right from the cottage. Amazing garden with cute animals, sweet cats, dogs, rabbits, chicken etc. Leah and JD went out of their way to make us feel at home and made sure that our 1 year old had enough toys to play with. They may even name one of the baby chicks after him! :) from here it’s easy to visit all the great places in the surroundings, such as the Knysna islands and Brenton at Sea. Thanks a lot for having us!!
