Value for money with a beautiful location.

The Rock Selfsorg is perfectly clean and convenient and located in a beautiful suburb of Hermanus, just a short walk from the scenic cliff trail. We were welcomed with friendliness.

Wonderlike, gasvrye mense.

The Rock Selfsorg het al ons verwagtinge oortref. Bonus was die feit dat die eenheid sonkrag gehad het toe dit beurtkrag was. Ons sal definitief weer van die eenheid gebruik maak.

Dit was verskriklik lekker.

Anschen is 'n vrou so na aan my hart. Sy het ons tuis laat voel nog voor sy ons ontmoet het. Sy het so 'n warm hart teenoor mense en haar diens is 'n bewys daarvan. As ek kon sou ek The Rock meer as 100% wou gee. Ons het regtig 'n wonderlike naweek gehad, baie dankie Anschen, jy is 'n ster.

Anschen is a woman so close to my heart. She made us feel at home even before she met us. She has such a warm heart towards people and her service is proof of that. If I could I would give The Rock more than 100%. We really had a great weekend, thank you very much Anschen, you are a star.

Everything you need.

I only stayed for two days - had a few medical procedures at the Hermanus MediClinic and The Rock was perfect in location and comfort - it had everything I needed and Anschen communicated very well. I would definitely recommend staying at The Rock. Minor detail - there was a slight musty smell but this is to be expected for seaside cottages.

Thank you for the lovely review, Antoinette. You were the first guest after the lockdowns were eased and I must say that the place was mostly closed for a long time and therefore the slight musty smell. Sorry to hear it was a problem, I'm sure next time will be perfect.

Vriendelike, veilige akkommodasie binne loopafstand van die kus wandelpad.

Ons het baie lekker gekuier. The Rock was ideaal vir ons twee as afspringbasis om die res van die Overberg te verken. Ons gasvrou was baie gaaf en het uit haar pad gegaan om ons verblyf aangenaam te maak. Ons sal die Rock definitief aanbeveel, dit was ideaal vir ons behoeftes en boonop nog waarde vir geld ook.

Friendly and safe accommodation within walking distance from the coastal path.

We had a great stay. The Rock was ideal for the two of us to use as a home base to explore the rest of the Overberg. Our hostess was very friendly and went out of her way to make us feel at home. We will definitely recommend The Rock, it was perfect for us and value for money.

Beste rusplekkie, wat 'n edelsteen!

Ons kan hierdie selfsorgkothuisie gerus aanbeveel as jy moeg is en jou lewe met jou weggehardloop het. Die eienares het uit haar pad gegaan om die paar dae vir my en my man lekker te maak. Al is dit net selfsorg-eenheid het dit vir ons gevoel asof ons in 'n gastehuis bly. Die plekkie is skoon en lekker weggesteek van die alledaagse geraas, beddegoed word gereeld omgeruil. Ons motor was veilig agter geslote hekke en die rotspaaie is sommer naby. Ons kon lekker stap en die kusgebied bewonder. Jy kan die see ruik en hoor al sien jy dit nie. Ek kan die plekkie vir langtermyn of korttermyn aanbeveel en sal beslis weer kom! Wat 'n weggesteekte edelsteen.

Best resting place, what a gemstone!

We can recommend this self-catering cottage if you are tired and feel like life is running away with you. The owner went out of her way to make me and my husband enjoy the few days. Even though it is just a self-catering unit, it felt like we were staying in a guest house. The place is clean and well hidden from the everyday noise, bedding is changed regularly. Our car was safely behind closed gates and the rock roads are close by. We were able to walk and admire the coastal area. You can smell the sea and hear it even if you don't see it. I can recommend the place for long term or short term and will definitely come again! What a hidden gem.

Heerlike verblyf vir naweek maar sal nie vir langer aanbeveel.

Skoon, netjiese plekkie. Sal vir naweek aanbeveel. Die plekkie is regtig nie baie groot nie en na drie weke het ek baie vasgedruk gevoel. Naby see en loopafstand van dorp.

Lovely stay for weekend but would not recommend for longer.

Clean, tidy place. Would recommend for weekend. The place is really not very big and after three weeks I felt very cramped. Close to sea and walking distance from town.

Dankie vir u resensie. Dit word altyd waardeer. Daar is paar plekkies in Hermanus wat heelwat duurder is as Cottage-on-the-Rock en wat u 2 hondekinders ook terselfdertyd sal kan akkommodeer soos wat ons gedoen het. Miskien kan u volgende keer moontlik liewer so ‘n groter plek oorweeg. Cottage-on-the-Rock is vanaf datum egter nie meer beskikbaar as diere-vriendelike vakansieverblyf nie. Ons wil geen gaste enige ongerief veroorsaak nie. Vriendelike groete. Anschen duplessis

Heerlik, stil en rustig.

Al wat gepla het is die feit dat jou motor buite op die sypaadjie parkeer word. Die alarm se toon met aanskakel en afskakel is te sag, 'n lig aan die voorkant van die huis sal help. Ons het nooit die eienaar persoonlik ontmoet nie, iets waarvan ek persoonlik nie hou nie.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Lovely, quiet and tranquil.

The only thing bothering us was the fact that you have to park your car outside on the sidewalk. The alarm tone when you switch it on and off is too quiet - a light at the front of the house would help. We never met the owner personally, something I would have liked.

Goeiedag Johan,

Ek neem kennis van u klagtes oor parkering, die alarm, en buiteligte.

Wat parkering aanbetref: Nicola, die dame wat op die perseel woon, is my persoonlike plaasvervanger om gaste te ontvang aangesien ekself soms oorsee is en ook op 'n ander dorp woon en dus nie self die sleutel kan oorhandig nie. Toe sy die sleutel oorhandig het en u kwitansie gegee het, het sy wel aan u die opsie gegee om parkering agter geslote hekke te neem teen 'n minimale fooi wat aan haar betaalbaar is.

Wat die alarm aanbetref: Die alarm het sy eie klank en die alarmmaatskappy doen hul eie ding. Die alarm sit agter en dis hoe dit is. Ons is van die min gasteplekke wat wel alarms het en ek kan nie die alarm harder maak of skuif nie, dit sal regulasies van wooneenhede oorskry.

Wat ligte voor die kothuis aanbetref: Saar is wel solarliggies wat die paadjie verlig in aanloop na die kothuis. Ons sal oorweeg om 'n ander lig aan die voorhekkie aan te bring - dankie vir u voorstel.

Wat die breekskade fooi aanbetref: Dankie dat u u bankbesonderhede aan my gestuur het op 16 Mei 2018 sodat ek dit kan terugbetaal aan u. Aangesien u in Windhoek woon, kan ek nie waarborg hoe lank dit sal neem om u te bereik deur die bankkanale nie.

Alhoewel u resensie welkom word, wil ek benadruk dat ongeag van die feit dat ons altyd daarna streef om elke gas se verblyf so aangenaam as moontlik te maak, kan ons ongelukkig nie almal tevrede stel nie.

Ons vertrou u vind dit in orde so.

Groete,
Mev. du Plessis

'n Rustige wegbreek.

Baie dankie vir 'n lekker blyplek wat privaat was, maar ook naby alles. Die huisie was skoon en netjies met 'n klein tuintjie wat omhein is vir die honde en om in te braai. Die wandelpad is net 'n paar minute en Goering punt so 1,6 km se stap. 'n Ideale blyplek vir 3 persone wat stilte en rustigheid wil hê, maar ook naby winkels en besienswaardighede wil wees. Dankie dat ons die honde kon saambring. Ons het baie lekker gebly.

Thank you very much for a nice place to stay that was private, but also close to everything. The house was clean and tidy with a small fenced garden for the dogs and for barbecuing. The walking path is only a few minutes and Goering point about a 1.6 km walk. An ideal place to stay for 3 people who want peace and quiet, but also want to be close to shops and attractions. Thank you for allowing us to bring the dogs. We had a very nice stay.
