5/5 "Awesome Visit"

We had a wonderful time, Very neat and Comfortable unit, if you just want to relax and unwind this place will definitely do this, my 11 year old son slept outside first night of arrival, this was a nice experience for him, we all enjoyed the fishing, especially my 9 year old daughter, the waterfront fishing area is amazing, with grass till upon the waterfront, not a lot of places have this, Michèlè and Mary made sure we are comfortable and everything was in order, Will definitely recommend Loch Vaal Cottage

Thank You Ettiene for your time in leaving such an awesome review. So glad you all had fun and that your children enjoyed their time in nature.

Everything was just AMAZING from the house till the fishing. I would definitely recommend your place to anyone with or without kids.
My boy enjoyed the dogs & the play area so much - he was very sad when we had to go home.

The price per night is also AMAZING. You don't get such a beautiful place for that price.

Hope to soon visit this place again.

Last minute booking, grandsons wanted to go fishing, we found the best accommodation, everything was neat and tidy, beds comfortable, fresh linen and we had the best weekend away from home in a long time. The gardens are manicured and the hosts was so friendly and helpful. If you get lucky, Dave might take you on a heavenly cruise in his speedboat. You have a private area to fish from and my grandsons loved it and we will definately make our second trip soon. God bless you Dave n Michele

5/5 "Wonderful stay at Vaal"

The unit is spotless and has all amenities you need plus more. Lapa just as comfortable. Close to the river and private. Access to river at your own launch site and use of on river boathouse for parking boat at night. The only thing that exceeds the comfort of the unit is the friendliness and hospitality of the hosts Dave and Michele and their 3 beautiful and well behaved dogs that guarded us. Thank you for a great weekend.

Our second time staying at the cottage - it is a very relaxing weekend away with the family. The cottage is comfortable, neat and well equipped. Easy access to the water, big green lawn and nice braai-area.

3.5/5 "Staying at Lochvaal Cottage 2"

I feel like not sharing how nice it was to stay at Lochvaal Cottage 2 as too many people would then book it and it will not be available to me as often as I am planning to return. Take note it is meant for people wanting access to the water.
Excellent place. Well priced. You would have to book long in advance to secure.

We had a wonderful stay and enjoyed our lovely weekend there! The view was beautiful. Thanks to Michele and the rest of the family we all felt welcome and enjoyed our stay.
The cottage and braai area was very neat and everything we wanted for a weekend away and more.
Will definitely go back again!

We really enjoyed our stay. The cottage is everything you need and more. Safe, comfortable, neat and well equipped, from the bathroom, bedrooms kitchen, lounge and braai area.

We have stayed at many self- catering lodges and have come across some dodgy places but I can honestly say that we were not let down this time. We will definitely recommend you to anyone! Thanks again for a wonderful stay.
