Great and would go back anytime.

The house is really nice and has a great view. Also well equipped. Really safe so no worries. Nice place to relax with family or group of friends. One recommendation: the last bit of sand road was a bit rough, so just take it easy and you will be fine.

Rustige seevakansie.

Ons het baie lekker gebly. Dit is goed ingerig met alles wat jy sal benodig. Dit is amper asof jy jou eie private strand het. Ek stel voor dat hulle wel 'n ketel kry wat op die gasplaat gebruik kan word tydens beurtkrag.

Peaceful seaside holiday.

We had a very nice stay. It is well appointed with everything you will need. It's almost like you have your own private beach. I suggest they do get a kettle that can be used on the gas plate during load shedding.

Wonderlike tyd gehad.

Shamrock is volledig toegerus en het fantastiese uitsigte. Die sonsondergangs is spectacular en die strande is toeganklik. Koop alles wat jy nodig het by Kareedouw se slaghuis en skakel jou kar af vir die res van jou vakansie. Die padstal het ook hout, water, melk, vrugte, pasteie, wyn ens. en is so 7 km weg op die grondpad. Jy gaan dit moeilik vind om n beter plek te boek.

Had a wonderful time.

Shamrock is fully equipped and has fantastic views. The sunsets are spectacular and the beaches are accessible. Buy everything you need at Kareedouw's butcher shop and switch off your car for the rest of your holiday. The paddock also has wood, water, milk, fruit, pies, wine etc. and is about 7 km away on the dirt road. You will find it difficult to book a better place.

Mostly beautiful clean comfortable setting. Loved it.

9/10. Loved everything. The only drawback is the long gravel road from the padstal to Eersterivier. Not a very comfortable drive which made us a bit wary to explore the area as planned.

Ongelooflike ligging.

Dis 'n lieflike plek met alles wat 'n mens nodig het. Al moet jy jou eie DStv en kaart saamneem het ons dit nie eers gemis nie, want daar is baie om te doen - en wel, mens kan heeldag vir die see kyk. Hierdie huis is omtrent bo-op die see gebou. Mense wat klein kinders het moet maar versigtig wees en as jul so iets kan saamneem, neem hekkies saam, want daar is heelwat trappe. Ons sal enige dag weer teruggaan.

Incredible location.

It's a lovely place with everything one needs. Even if you have to take your own DStv and map with you, we didn't even miss it, because there is a lot to do - and well, you can watch the sea all day. This house is built almost on top of the sea. People who have small children should be careful and if you can take something like that with you, take hurdles with you, because there are a lot of stairs. We would go back again any day.

Shamrock Cottage is positioned in a breathtaking location just above the crashing waves. Plenty of space and everything you need.

I feel that the bedding and linen should be replaced - it is old and tired. Carpets in bathrooms and around toilets is very unhygienic. We would have liked more dish clothes, I would have like to have been told that I must bring toilet paper, dish washing pills and sunlight liquid. Having said the above, we still had a wonderful time in this beautiful location.

Pragtige uitsig, privaat en rustig.

Hoekom moet 'n addisionele skoonmaakfooi betaal word? Teen R2850 per nag behoort dit ingesluit te wees by die prys. Mens betaal tog vir 'n skoon wooneenheid. Ek vra maar net en ek is seker daar is ander mense wat ook wonder.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Beautiful view, private and peaceful.

Why should an additional cleaning fee be paid? At R2850 per night it should be included in the price. You pay for a clean housing unit after all. I'm just asking and I'm sure there are other people who wonder too.

Perfekte ligging, uitstekende uitsig en hope rustigheid.

Shamrock Cottage is 'n vakansiebestemming wat ons vir seker weer sal oorweeg in die toekoms. Die ligging is uitstekend en die huis het alles wat jy nodig het vir 'n vakansie. Alle bybehore en toerusting was in werkende orde, maar ongelukkig was sommige items in die kombuis duidelik nie baie skoon gewas nie. Ons het dit nodig geag om meeste items af te spoel en/of te was voor ons dit kon gebruik. In die algemeen sal ons Shamrock vir seker aanbeveel aan enige iemand wat 'n rustige vakansie met uitstekende 180 grade-uitsigte oor die see wil geniet.

Perfect location, excellent view and loads of tranquility.

Shamrock Cottage is a holiday destination that we will definitely consider again in the future. The location is excellent and the house has everything you need for a holiday. All accessories and equipment were in working order, but unfortunately some items in the kitchen had clearly not been washed very clean. We found it necessary to rinse and/or wash most items before we could use them. Overall we would definitely recommend Shamrock to anyone looking to enjoy a peaceful holiday with excellent 180 degree sea views.

Die huis is baie netjies en het alles wat mens nodig het, selfs 'n strykyster! Penny was baie behulpsaam toe ons die sleutels afgehaal het. Die huis se ligging is onverbeterlik en die uitsig asemrowend! Veiligheid is nie 'n probleem nie.

Onbeskryflik!

Dit was voorwaar 'n belewenis om so te sê op die strand te bly! 'n Fantastiese uitsig en 'n bo verwagting toegeruste blyplek. Alles wat nodig was en nog meer! Dis net 'n jammerte ons verblyf was so kort, maar sal dit volgende keer definitief langer maak. Sal hierdie definitief aanbeveel by familie en vriende.

It was truly an experience to stay on the beach so to speak! A fantastic view and a place to stay equipped beyond expectations. Everything that was needed and more!
