Holiday rentals with a kayak in South Africa

Big and beautiful house in amaizing location. We will come back for sure!

Beautiful place on the river. The house has everything you need and the complex has good amenities (tennis, squash, swimming pool).

It was a great weekend get away and Thomas is an outstanding host he was very nice and made us feel comfortable and at home as we got there would definitely recommend and will visit again

Read all the 5 star reviews and all the positive comments about Gantry House and that is exactly what your stay will be about. Once again another incredible holiday in Liddi’s place.

We enjoyed our stay at the riverside cottage. The accommodation is simple but cozy, with plenty of relaxing spots around. We appreciated the lovely complimentary touches like coffee, tea, milk, butter, bread and water. There was lots of space for the kids to play, which made it even more special. A place full of good memories! I’m not sure is it’s okay but during the braai was lots of smoke in the house, I advise do it outside.

Marina Da Gama in itself is a gem - the tranquility, canoeing on the waterways, abundant birdlife etc. Jessica's house exceeded expectations - very well located, very well equipped, spotlessly clean and very comfortable. I enjoyed the easy and direct access to the water using the really good canoes provided and the surprisingly efficient pedal boat. The fynbos garden is immaculate and attracts beautiful birds. Lovely indoor braai in the lounge that opens up the outside via enormous fold back doors making the whole place very light and airy. No complaints, only praise for this wonderful location.

The house suited our needs perfectly and the views were amazing. Being able to just walk through the sand dunes to the beach was really special. Lovely beach for walks and surfing. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't that kind and did rain heavily for two days but we went shopping and found some lovely restaurants to enjoy delicious seafood. Very secluded braai area which was really nice too when we stayed in and braaied.

We had an amazing stay at Penny's beautiful cottage in Churchhaven! The house was perfectly simple, yet met all our needs, and was spotlessly clean. The location was stunning, and Churchhaven is truly one of the most special places we've visited. The kids absolutely loved the swing on the verandah, and Penny's thoughtful tips and recommendations were super helpful - especially the advice on which beaches to visit depending on the weather. Communication with Penny was seamless, and she made sure we had everything we needed. We'd absolutely love to come back and stay again. Highly recommend!

Tugela river lodge is the perfect blend of nature and comfort. Highly recommend for anyone looking to disconnect and recharge!

I booked on behalf of my daughter. She highly recommends this place. beautiful views! There is so much to do. The cottage is stunning and has everything you need. I will definitely put this place on my to-do list!

A massive thank you to Nicholas & Louis for their incredible hospitality, attention to detail and they were always available irrespective of the time of day. We felt as if we have known them for years, and their friendly demeanor and attention to detail was incredible. Thank you for your generosity.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We were a bit surprised by the 10km stretch of public dirt road leading to the farm — we had expected only a few kilometers of gravel once on the property — but it was still perfectly manageable with a sedan. The thoughtful touches on arrival really made us feel welcome: a chilled G&T, the hot tub already heated, and a freshly baked loaf of bread waiting for us. The game drive the next day was a highlight. Uncle Steve shared many fascinating, history-rich spots with us, making the experience both educational and memorable. Next time (when not pregnant!), we’ll definitely take advantage of the kayaking — the lakes are absolutely beautiful — and we’d love to stay longer, as the game drive takes up most of the day. Highly recommended!

Another wonderful stay at Gartmore Guest Farm! This time, we stayed in the new cottage and were absolutely blown away by its beauty and the stunning natural surroundings. As always, our host Bronwyn was incredibly welcoming and went out of her way to accommodate our personal needs. We truly appreciate her hospitality. We’ll definitely be back as soon as we get the chance!

The Cottage at Wetlands exceeded my expectations. Everything was so perfect and was great attention to detail. I thoroughly enjoyed my time there and would definitely recommend staying there. I know I will be staying there again.

We stayed at Tamar’s place for a night. It’s truly an off-the-beaten-path spot and quite ascetic, but equipped with all mod-cons such as fast internet, a/c, and a fully equipped kitchen. You’ll need a high-clearance vehicle to get through the last kilometer to the house, or drive very slowly. Tamar is a very responsive and proactive host. Thank you for your hospitality, the small gift, and for helping with the earring search!

A lovely stay at the Mountain Spring cottage. The cottage was even better than the photos and the description. It was well equipped (loved the braai) and clean upon arrival. Close to the cottage are a number of walking trails that can be explored either up the mountain or through the orchards - all boasting great views of the the mountains in the area. It was a peaceful setting for a weekend away. All of the staff were helpful, responsive and friendly. I would definitely recommend this!

The hostess was very nice

This surpassed our expectations. It's a very tranquil and beautiful spot; the river by the collage is stunning, and the host was extremely helpful when we got trapped in the mud. Whatever you do, stay a day longer. You will regret not staying longer.

Firstly, thank you Esbie for your warm hospitality and welcoming our furry kids to your free-roaming Billiard Room facilities. Secondly, Die Boothuis was an exceptional experience - we loved the days spent. Our furry kids loved the environment, as we appreciated the tranquility. We'll be back in summer to explore the "cave". This is really a GEM to visit, relax and enjoy!!! Till next time.

Thank you so much for just an amazing weekend stay. 🥰 it was such a beautiful accommodation, the view is amazing, and just the overall atmosphere is exceptional. We will Def be back in next few months. ☀️☀️

Beautiful place to stay with lots to do. The farm is great for hiking, running and cycling but also just to enjoy the beautiful surroundings.

We found paradise. This little gem exceeded our expectations. Thank you Ashley and family for sharing your slice of paradise with us.

Very friendly homestay with amazing views. Peaceful and quiet with a lovely big yard. It is surrounded by a picturesque countryside with beautiful views across the valley.Location was beautiful and there was lots to do nearby. We were able to contact Amelia and Jacques easily and they were very helpful; from restaurant & activity recommendations to use of the cottage amenities. We had plenty of room for two adults; two kids & two infants. Just what we need to get away from the hustle & bustle of city life.A very beautiful & spacious cabin; we will certainly be going back as there is so much more activities and wine farms we left without visiting.

This place is an absolute must-stay for everyone! From the moment we arrived, it felt like stepping into a living painting: the views, the vibe, and the atmosphere are simply breathtaking. The facilities are top-notch, offering everything you need for a perfect stay. What truly sets this place apart are the little details that make it feel like home: the friendly dogs, the adorable donkeys, and even the chickens you can cuddle. The food is incredible, the coffee is next-level (and also the coffee shakes and fresh juices), and every lunch felt like a treat. The owners and the host made our experience even more special with their warmth and hospitality. The massages were pure bliss, and to top it all off, the internet is lightning-fast: strong enough for remote working without any issues. Everything was beyond perfection, we could have stayed here forever!
