Holiday rentals in Howick

Visiting from the UK, Angela the host gave clear directions & gate entry info. On arrival we were greeted with a thatch roof rondawel in the most serene & private surroundings. Felt so tranquil & peaceful looking out over her beautiful garden. The rondawel has a lovely rustic feel & was spotless with the little touches of tea, coffee, sugar & milk plus some delicious biscuits & a dram of Sherry! There’s a fire pit to enjoy looking up at the vast African sky & a swimming pool to enjoy by day. Vervet monkeys were busy foraging & little duikers came to visit. We stayed here 4 times during our visit we enjoyed it so much. Angela gave us tips on places to visit & eat & was so friendly during our stays. We will definitely be back!

We had a wonderful 2 days at Where the crows nest. Maryna was helpful and friendly. It was a very special family time, in a beautiful home

Beautiful location on the farm. Excellent breakaway to rest and escape the rush. Beautiful view of the mountains and surroundings. The kids could walk on the farm and see the farm animals up and close. We loved it

So thrilled we had a chance to stay here - such a beautiful place, so quiet, with the most wonderful view of the woods, a river, and lake in the distance. Pauline is a fabulous host - her communication was excellent and although the cabin is really off the beaten path, her directions were perfect. She couldn't have been more helpful and we spent a blissful weekend there. No wonder it's hard to book here and it's a super popular place to hire. Long to return.

My boyfriend and I stayed for a few days at the fisherman's cottage. It was so peaceful and private. The cottage was comfortable and cozy. The surrounding area was so beautiful and I spent a large part of my stay sitting on the veranda watching the birds and cows around the dam. Theo and Kevin were excellent hosts and were very responsive to any questions that I had. Thank you so much for the lovely stay. I will be recommending this cottage to my friends and family.

We booked Penny's place at the last minute and she was more than willing to assist us. The space is lovely, we enjoyed meals in the open plan kitchen with a view over the valley. The kitchen is well equipped for self catering. The shower was piping hot and clean which was superb on a rainy cold weekend. Full dstv bouquet allowed us to enjoy the UCI XCO races. All in all, an incredibly pleasant weekend. Thanks Penny.

Had a wonderful stay in a very well equipped cottage. The stairs to the loft are very steep. Perhaps a handrail on the side would make it easier and safer to get up and down. The location is awesome. Very peaceful, safe and secure. Would highly recommend staying here.

We love staying in the Hoopoe Cabin when we have cycling events in the area. The two bathrooms and two bedrooms plus a sleeper couch are ideal for our family. And the location is so peaceful and tranquil.

Thank you for sharing your place with us Steve. We had an amazing holiday. The peaceful surroundings and the Mearns dam made our stay more memorable. Steve was so helpful and assisted us throughout our trip. We appreciated all the free goodies that welcomed us into the cottage. We highly recommend your place and we will definitely visit again.
