Holiday rentals with a kayak in South Africa

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house has a wonderful layout… allowed for our family to have good quality time together, but also have our own soace. Wonderful that each bedroom had their own bathroom and each room was beautiful! We loved the outside area- the pool and kayaks made for such fun and good memories. Thank you Darren, we are hoping to come back soon 🙂

A little oasis is this beautifully designed cottage. You can only feel comfortable here. Everything is very generous and open. In front of the large living area with kitchen and dining table was a large terrace with several seats and then a lawn with a pool that extended up to a river. Here you also had the opportunity to use a canoe. One bedroom had an integrated bathroom, the second bedroom had a separate bathroom. Newly installed air conditioners in the bedrooms rounded it off. Sophia gave us a very warm welcome and also booked a safari for us, which was quite fantastic. We would book this place again anytime.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this idilic location. If you enjoy seaside walks breathing in sea air and the sound of the ocean you can’t do better than this.

Great stay. Clean, well equipped property that matched its description. Hosts responsive and helpful. Easy walk to the Waterfront. Thank you also for making a kayak available to us. Good fun.

Just the most lovely welcoming spot. The guard “Recent” settled us nicely and my husband and I really enjoyed our stay in this leisurely spot on leisure island.

What a gem of a spot. Clean and comfortable and kitted out for entertaining. They have everything you need and more. Raoul was extremely proactive, responsive and helpful. We hope to return.

We were a group of 5 and we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Ferrybridge House. The setting is beautiful overlooking the river and mountains as was the incredible birdlife while enjoying our morning coffee. The house is spotless, secure and has everything one needs. Stanford village is charming, we walked along the river and had an exceptional supper at Rivergate farm as per your recommendation. we will definitely be back

beautiful house on the banks of the river. comfortable even for a big family. spacious ,with modern finishes. loved the canoeing kids loved the nearby beach approx 1.2km from the house as well. nearest good shop is in port alfred though we didn't need anything in our 3 days . time went so fast wish we could start it all again lol.

We planned a riverside getaway with some friends and a boat. House has a lovely deck overlooking the river and floating jetty- we spend many hours there. The house itself is really well suited for a family. It has ample outdoor furniture and deck space to enjoy. The Nespresso machine was a treat. The area is safe and quiet, neighbours are close, but never felt intrusive. The house has access to a well kept slipway- launching a smallish boat with a 4x4 was pretty straight forward. Reaching the house with a 2x4 is possible, but would recommend using a 4x4.

This is a gem of a place. Sylvy is the best hoast ever whent out of her way to make us feel welcome and comfortable. The view is amazing and spending hours un the Kayak fishing was amazing. All the litle extras is amazing fresh farm milk eggs veg it was so special. We will see you soon

Beautiful peaceful setting. Fly fishing paradise or a tranquil place to just 'be'

Absolutely perfect ! very comfortable clean a generous little welcoming extras. Private and quiet. If you happened to be buying a property you have landed in the right stop ! You will be assisted by the owner who knows everything you need to know and find you your happy home ! Excellent!

Beautiful farm cottage, very clean and peaceful. The Midlands have great things to offer and to do. Most definitely going back soon!!

We had a lovely stay at the cottage. The beds were super comfortable and everything was clean. There were annoying animal noises at night coming from the roof of the one bedroom. We assumed there might be a bat nest on the roof as we did see a bat in the house. Other than this and one or two electrical plugs that intermittently worked. Our stay was very pleasant.

Such a beautiful situation right by the beach, just open the door and walk down the sand. House was very comfortable and had all we needed. Duncan was super helpful on arrival and throughout. Would definitely go there again

The house was perfect for our holiday. The fenced garden was so nice for our toddler and dog so we didn't have to worry about the water. A real highlight was swimming in the river. The big veranda was lovely for lazy afternoons and braaing. The beds are very comfortable and lovely linen and towels. The kitchen has everything you need. Best if all you feel as if you are in the middle of nowhere but there are shops and restaurants close by.

Outstanding stay! Well equipped quaint space with all necessities .Super easy self check in and friendly staff - Great service from staff at this establishment. The cabin was beautifully decorated from the room to the hot tub. The space was very neat and clean and while being surrounded by lush greenery and breathtaking views of the Knysna lagoon. The hot tub was heated prior to our arrival and while we were out.. our host was very friendly and made sure to check in . An amazing stay with an authentic experience.

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.

The beautiful and peaceful surroundings right next to Lake Chrissie is the main reason for us that makes this a very special place to visit

We had the most lovely stay at Lalapanzi, the cabin exceeded our expectations and the surroundings and views were so beautiful and tranquil! We will definitely be back soon. Thank you to the hosts for your hospitality!

All I can say after staying here is wow! Everything has been so thought out. The place was immaculate and any additional extras were there on site if needed. We enjoyed a paddle while watching the rhino graze nearby. Will be recommending it in the future for friends to stay at for sure!

Michelle was truly a wonderful host. Incredibly accommodating, personable and eager to help with everything from local recommendations to helping me out with some laundry! The lodge itself was like something out of a magazine. Spectacular views out over the forest, to the lake and then the sea beyond. All the mod-cons and supplies provided. (Ashamed to say I polished off the whole box of nougat cookies). The highlight was getting visited by a family of beautiful loeries each day.

We had a great time at this amazing venue. The nature and birdlife surrounding the coffee cabin made it feel super peaceful and relaxing. Just a short distance from the beach with an amazing view of the river. Would highly recommend this accommodation for a relaxing getaway.
