The Edge Mountain Retreat

My husband and I with our 11 yr old son, stayed at Tweeny's Cottage over New Year and overall, had the best stay. We loved the location - right near the cliff edge - so the views were fantastic. It was walking distance to the Labrinth (which is well maintained, beautiful and worth a visit), Bluff Experience hike and Cliff Edge View. We also loved having access to the big open, lawn space in front of our accommodation, to enjoy frisbee, cricket and other games. It was peaceful and restful and so lovely to be in nature with lots of bird life. The cottage was fairly well equipped - with all you needed for cooking, plus an outdoor braai area and some firewood provided for the indoor fireplace. We did however, feel it could have helped to have some floor mats in the bathrooms and inside the entrance doors - as the floors got very wet with the comings & goings from the shower and from outside - making the rest of the spaces a bit dirty. It also would be better to move the big, black dustbin area from directly outside the back door (which leads to the best views of the cliffs) to an area around the corner and out of site. Also, the main outdoor entertainment & braai area does not overlook the views - it's at the front of the house - which I imagine is to protect from the bad weather?. In any case, perhaps it would be nice if they paved the back door area and added a couple of lounge chairs, so one can enjoy sunsets overlooking the views. Luckily we had camping chairs with us, so could sit at the back, on the lawn and watch the sunset views over the cliffs. We also should mention the bugs. It is Farm country and we're in nature, so we understand there are bugs. So, we kept the doors and windows closed mostly - especially when we weren't there and at night. However, despite this, every morning, we woke to numerous dead bugs on the floors of the kitchen and lounge area. Somehow they were getting in - under the doors perhaps? Nothing a quick sweep couldn't fix - so, overall this didn't bother us too much. We would definitely recommend these places and would go back.

What a great place to stay. The view on the deck is amazing. Would definitley recomment it to anyone!

Few things no TV, No wifi while on website there was wifi and TV. Few kitchen utensils for cooking needs to be sorted

We had a lovely stay at The Edge! The Cabin is Cosy, Comfortable and Private. It is clean and well-equipped. There were even fresh flowers on the table when we arrived! Wish we could have stayed longer!

The surroundings were so peaceful. The room was clean and had all the basics we needed. The fireplace came in very handy in the cold evenings. We loved the open spaces for our son to run and be free. The food at the restaurant was so good! All the staff were extremely friendly and helpful!

Excellent services-room neat, quiet environment, good and efficient staff, good food, nice hiking area, very safe
