Absolutely what we needed, very beautiful. The photos don't do justice. This cottage truly exceeded all expectations! Tucked away in breathtaking isolation, surrounded by lush, vibrant nature. One of the highlights of our stay was the close encounters with playful monkeys. The cottage itself is romantic and cosy, providing all the comforts needed for a relaxing getaway. The host was very friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend. Without a doubt, we’ll be returning. 10/10.

Piece of heaven on earth. The beautiful view, wrapped in trees with the forest sounds around us, was just what we needed.

Stukkie hemel op aarde. Die pragtige uitsig, toegevou in bome met die bosgeluide om ons, was net wat ons nodig gehad het.

It was wonderful to be able to enjoy nature around you. God's Window people are very nice and did such nice canoe trips on a beautiful river just down there. Cycling and having a good time was wonderful.

Dit was heerlik om die natuur so om 'n mens te kan geniet. God's Window mense is baie gaaf en het so lekker kano ritte gevaar op 'n pragtige rivier net daar onder. Fiets gery en lekker gekuier was heerlik.

A good place for rest and solitude for a short stay. Kind and friendly hosts. Unfortunately the last half day of our stay we experienced torrential rain and the roof leaked in various sections of our cottage including the bedroom.

We are extremely grateful to Roger for pointing out the roof leaks and expressed our gratitude to him for pointing it out to us. Fortunately, it was not serious leaks causing discomfort and or health hazard. We seldom have the rain conditions experienced on Roger visit. We explained to Roger that we have the Samango Monkeys use the thatch roof as pass over into the forest and pull some of the thatch causing for slight gaps for water penetration in extreme weather conditions. We are already attending to cover the parts of the thatch with polycarb covering that blend in with the thatch, to avoid further thatch being pulled from the roof by the Samangos.

Ons is baie dankbaar teenoor Roger dat hy die daklekkasies uitgewys het en het ons dankbaarheid teenoor hom uitgespreek dat hy dit aan ons uitgewys het. Gelukkig was dit nie ernstige lekkasies wat ongemak en of gesondheidsgevaar veroorsaak het nie. Ons het selde die reëntoestande wat tydens Roger se besoek ervaar word. Ons het aan Roger verduidelik dat ons die Samango-ape die grasdak gebruik om in die bos oor te gaan en van die grasdak te trek, wat veroorsaak dat daar effense gapings is vir waterpenetrasie in uiterste weerstoestande. Ons is reeds besig om die dele van die grasdak te bedek met polikarb-bedekking wat by die grasdak inskakel, om te verhoed dat verdere grasdak deur die Samangos van die dak afgetrek word.

Accommodation in Heaven. This is one of the best places we have stayed. The cottage is very well designed - beautiful views of the bush when you are lying on the bed- big sliding windows in the lounge. The cottage is very well equipped with everything you will need (and more!) Marcel is a fantastic host. Highly recommend this place for a break -away.

A weekend breakaway from busy city life to quiet forest life. A weekend away was exactly what we needed, a breakaway from city life to life away from the busy city life, all windows open up to forest views, bird calls and tree life. The main photo shown does not serve justice to this place, rather show a photo of the 2 entrance doors. The shown photo is an open view underneath the lounge.

God's Window exceeded our expectations. Our best forest getaway ever, away from noise, yet close to everything. Rustic, yet modern. Maximum peace and quiet guaranteed in a natural location with breathtaking views. Thank you Marcel (the host) for your warm welcome.

God's Window het ons verwagtinge oortref. Ons beste boswegbreek ooit, weg van geraas, maar tog naby alles. Rustic, maar tog modern. Maksimum rus en vrede gewaarborg in 'n natuurlike ligging met asemrowende uitsigte. Dankie Marcel (die gasheer) vir jou hartlike verwelkoming.

Picturesque and serene. Marcelle is a fantastic and very responsive host. He is always available to assist while still affording his guests ultimate privacy. The cottage is rustic with modern amenities and the little added touches like puzzles and card games make it just perfect. The view from the main unit is superb and it can be seen through every window of the house, perfect to enjoy a book or some quiet time. Everything was really clean too. We really enjoyed our stay.
