Budget Getaways Review
Old Queen E and her entourage of corgis wouldn't scoff at this Breede River beauty. Especially not after the gushing feedback coming from the commoners who've already graced its halls. “We had such fun staying in the gorgeous, comfortable house.” “Highly recommend a visit, especially with a groups of friends.” “Well fitted out, well decorated with a welcoming and comfortable feel, spotlessly clean, light and spacious.”
Spanning the Breede River banks and 5km downstream of Malgas, this charming double-story has all the makings of a vogue family holiday - creamy dollops of style, river views from every angle, gorgeous sunsets washed down with bakkie-loads of G&T cut with a thin slice of lime.
Looking at the lay of the land, there’s a lot packed in here: Five double bedrooms on ground level (four of them ensuite), each lovingly decorated in vibrant tones; a large open-plan kitchen (with scullery to hide the aftermath) linked to a dining room and separate entertainment area that spill open onto a lawned garden, swimming pool and the river (with private jetty).
The entertainment area is decked with a pool table, table tennis, large flatscreen with DSTV and DVD player, Wifi, and an indoor braai. In other words, this is a weather-proof getaway of note.
There's more… Head up the stairs and you'll find a second lounge area, a study, and a bar. Once again, these spaces flow effortlessly to a deck with views over the garden and river.
And then, to round off that boozy lunch, two sunrooms fitted with double beds.
Fishing, swimming, biking, hiking, bird-watching, braaing, expeditions to the general dealer, scuttling between the entertainment area and sunrooms, you won't have a moment to spare.
We think you get the picture. This is a group getaway fit for a, err, queen.

"This is the fourth time we have used this accommodation. Each time we have visited with different people and all our guests have fallen in love with the setting and with the house. The hospitality of the owners of the house is second to none. We hope to go back yet again in April. Highly recommend a visit, especially groups of friends."
