Perfect. Out of the books. This was now one of the best places we have ever stayed. The Boathouse was picture perfect. Has everything you need and we felt so at home, only a pity we had to go again. Perfect area and land for our Axl and he could also enjoy it for once with lots of space.

Perfek. Uit die boeke uit. Dit was nou een van die beste plekke waar ons al ooit gebly het. Die Boathouse was picture perfect. Het als wat mens nodig het en ons het so tuis gevoel, net 'n jammer ons moes weer gaan. Perfekte area en grond vir ons Axl gewees en hy kon dit ook vir 'n slag geniet met vele spasie.

Superb. The Boat House experience was superb! The house is kitted with more than you will ever need! The braai area really helps to bring the kuier together! I would recommend 11 out of 10 times to anyone!

Definitely 'a home from home', as the English saying goes. It had been a lovely weekend. The Boathouse has everything you need for a fantastic break with family and friends. You can literally just pack your towels; otherwise there is everything you need. The owner has definitely thought of everything and more that is needed. The massive indoor grill is an absolute winner! We are already planning our next getaway there!

Beslis 'a home from home', soos die Engelse spreekwoord lui. Dit was 'n heerlike naweek gewees. The Boathouse het alles wat jy benodig vir 'n fantastiese wegbreek met 'n gesin en vriende. Jy kan letterlik net jou handdoeke inpak; verder is daar alles wat jy benodig. Die eienaar het beslis aan alles gedink en nog meer wat benodig word. Die massiewe binnebraai is 'n absolute wenner! Ons beplan alreeds ons volgende wegbreek daar!

Werner, we are very happy that you enjoyed your time at The Boathouse, thank you very much for sharing. Sorry the weather wasn't so good. We hope to welcome you back soon and if the weather is better that you can fully enjoy bo boma braai and kayak experiences on the river. Thank you very much for your support and for leaving the place so beautiful.

Werner, ons is baie bly dat julle die tyd so geniet het by The Boathouse, baie dankie dat jy dit deel. Jammer die weer was nie so goed nie. Ons hoop om julle gou weer terug te verwelkom en as die weer beter is dat julle bo boma braai- en kayak-ervarings op die rivier ten volle kan geniet. Baie dankie vir jul ondersteuning en dat julle die plek so mooi gelaat het.

Hi Jared, thank you very much for your comment. We agree, WiFi would be a great value add. We are considering this without having to impact our price too much. Keep in contact, most likely it will be added in the near future.

Hallo Jared, baie dankie vir jou kommentaar. Ons stem saam, WiFi sal 'n groot waardetoevoeging wees. Ons oorweeg dit sonder om ons prys te veel te beïnvloed. Hou kontak, dit sal waarskynlik in die nabye toekoms bygevoeg word.

One of the best weekends of my life! A beautiful, well maintained and fully equipped house. Lovely garden with lots of space.

Een van die beste naweke van my lewe! 'n Pragtige, goedversorgde en ten volle toegeruste huis. Heerlike tuin met baie spasie.

I want to go back! Beautifully decorated, well situated, nice chilled vibe to the house. DSTV, dishwasher, indoor braai, the comfiest couches and the private jetty is a major plus. Great host too!

Our tanks are full to the brim. Our soul is refreshed. We had a wonderful stay! Everything we needed was there. Rest, peace and incredible nature.

Ons tenke is tot oorloopstoe vol. Ons siel is verkwik. Ons het heerlik gebly! Alles wat ons nodig gehad het, was daar. Rus, vrede en ongelooflike natuur.

Very well rested! As a family of 5 adults and 3 dogs, we had an extremely enjoyable holiday at The Boathouse and relaxed over Christmas and New Year. The house is well laid out and equipped with what one needs for relaxing and visiting. The indoor and outdoor barbecue areas especially got a lot of discount during our stay. The owner, André, answered our questions in a flash and also gave us suggestions of activities that we could do in the area. He went out of his way to make it as comfortable as possible for us. Even all the equipment in the house, like the kayaks, was available for our use. And the access to the private jetty makes visiting around sunset something special. Although there was no WiFi available during our stay, there were signs that the installation of fiber in the area was underway. The Boathouse can be confidently recommended to anyone who wants to venture out in the Velddrif area.

Baie lekker uitgerus! Ons het as gesin van 5 volwassenes en 3 honde uiters lekker by The Boathouse vakansie gehou en ontspan oor Kersfees en Nuwejaar. Die huis is goed uitgelê en toegerus met wat mens nodig het vir ontspan en kuier. Die binne- en buitebraai areas het veral baie aftrek gekry tydens ons verblyf. Die eienaar, André, het ons vrae blitsig beantwoord en ook voorstelle gegee van aktiwiteite wat ons in die omgewing kan doen. Hy het uit sy pad gegaan om dit vir ons so gerieflik moontlik te maak. Selfs al die toerusting in die huis, soos die kajakke, was beskikbaar vir ons gebruik. En die toegang tot die private jetty maak die kuier rondom sonsondergang iets besonders. Alhoewel daar nie WiFi beskikbaar was tydens ons verblyf nie, was daar tekens dat die installering van fibre in die omgewing onderweg is. The Boathouse kan met vrymoedigheid aanbeveel word vir enigiemand wat in die Velddrif area wil gaan uitspan.

Johannes, it is very nice for us to know that your well-deserved holiday over Christmas and New Year was such a good experience. We are definitely considering making WiFi available later. Thank you very much for your feedback, we look forward to welcoming you again at The Boathouse.

Johannes, dit is vir ons baie lekker om te weet dat julle welverdiende vakansie oor Kersfees en Nuwe Jaar so 'n goeie ervaring was. Ons oorweeg beslis om WiFi later beskikbaar te stel. Baie dankie vir julle terugvoer, ons sien uit daarna om julle weer by The Boathouse te ontvang.
