Fantastic stay

Had an awesome night at Paddabult Cottages enroute to Cape Town. It is conveniently located very close to some of the best wine farms. Fully self-catering and a beautiful outlook from the patio over the vines.

What a sweet place! This was absolutely perfect for our family of four. They allowed us to extend our stay for an extra night and were super accommodating! Our cottage was a cozy little haven for us. The cottage is perfectly located to many great restaurants & wineries! We highly recommend & look forward to coming back again!

Worthwhile visiting

Very nice clean and well equipped unit. The only comment is that the pillows are hard and bulky I woke up with a stiff neck. Friendly people. At present there are so many roadworks all around the region making it a bit cumbersome to get there. But all and all a very nice unit in a picturesque environment close to wine estates notably the Babylonstoren estate.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service

Mmmmmm.

Nice cottage. To get there is a nightmare with road closures and 30 min stop and go. Was told to call reception to open the gate. No one answered the phone for 40 minutes. Kitchenware was filthy to say the least. Old food with egg on the plates and pan. Not enough blankets for cold night. I would not stay here again. Blanket had mark that I hope was chocolate. Towels frayed.

Great base for visiting Franschhoek

A really great spot. Comfortable, affordable, well-maintained, with fantastic staff. My only very minor qualm is that the units could really do with a bodum/french press or filter coffee machine. Otherwise, absolutely no complaints and this will be my first choice accommodation whenever I'm in the area in future.

Fantastic cottages on the outskirts of Franschhoek. Comfortable, very well maintained, and in the most idyllic setting. We're so glad we discovered it and will definitely be going back.

Great self catering unit for family

Very comfortable self catering unit with good BBQ facility (wood supplied). Spacious living area with a well equipped kitchen. About a 10 minute drive from the Paarl and very near Babelonstoring which is a very nice organic farm which is a must to visit. Also close to Stellenbosch area, good location to explore the area.

Wine lovers from US visiting SA wine country

Because we were two adults traveling with our adult daughter our hotel choices were very limited. The two-bedroom cottage was perfect for us all because it really had two bedrooms in addition to the common kitchen and sitting room area. There were a number of wineries very close but if we were to do it again we would start our day earlier, stay 2 nights and plan on having a braai at the cttage. As it was, we were unprepared to fully use the cottage and ate a nice supper in Stellenbosch and a breakfast at the Pot Belly on the way to the N1, both delightful. It is also worth noting that the cottages are bordered by an orchard and vineyard, quiet, safe and rural.
