    Jacky is such a sweet somebody!!! She was constantly checking up on us on the road as she was worried - we had taken a route with hectic gravel so it took 2hours longer to get there. She is informative, and bubbly. It was like we were sleeping...

Mariette Robinson
Fisherman’s Cottage is home away from home set less than a kilometre from the beach, with views that overlook the contrasts of barren landscapes and beautiful ocean, we offer luxury self-catering accommodation. Our Cottages are privately situated and have all the comforts of home. The ideal hideaway to rejuvenate body, mind and soul. We welcome our guests with a glass of sherry and a chocolate on arrival and surprise them with amenities. Fisherman's Cottage is a very charming cottage that sleeps 4 persons in two beautifully decorated bedrooms with the best percale linen and snug feather pillows and duvet on one big King Size bed with the option to turn it into two single beds on request. Crisp clean linen and towels in both bedrooms. The perfect holiday retreat with a real good feel to it! The Cottage consist of an open-plan fully equipped kitchen with fridge/freezer, microwave, gas stove, Snappy Chef, kettle, Nespresso Coffee Machine and toaster for self catering and a big fireplace to braai indoors when the mist rolls inn. Satellite TV with a premium DSTV package for Super-Sport Rugby and movies when it rains. We also have an outside braai/ barbecue for sunny days.
We look forward to meet you and wish to welcome you to your home away from home where every stranger becomes a friend. We do not have bright lights, any jazz cafe's or theatre, only nature! Neither can we offer you cinema's or casino's but we can offer you peace and tranquillity. Not even our water tastes nice but we are friendly, heartwarming, simple folk who love to live in this remote area. The "Baaienaars" as the locals refer to themselves, are friendly, relaxed and carefree people!
Soak up the beauty of nature, experiencing swirling mists and stunning sunsets. Within walking distance to the beach, local restaurants, a pub, two general dealer shops, liquor store and an open air art gallery.
