Family holiday

We had a week at Kelman Cottage for a family holiday. The location is beautiful. It’s peaceful and we loved seeing kangaroos and other wildlife each day. The cottage has everything you need and is very comfortable. We loved the pool area on the warmer days, enjoying the shade over the pool and the cabana area. On wet days the cottage had enough room for us to relax and enjoy games and reading. Thanks for a wonderful week.

Amazing cottage

Perfect stay at the cottage. Very clean, with lots of amenities. The cottage is nestled with its natural surroundings. We had kangaroo's come right up to us. The kids feed the cattle and horses located on the property, with the owners, which were great! Very inviting and welcoming. We will definitely stay there again.

We will be back (again!)

Had another amazing experience at Kelman. Kids adored the animals (and feeding) with Dennis the hit again. Weather enabled use of the pool and BBQ well into the evenings this time and the seclusion of the property as well as the endless inclusions for kids made the 3 day stay perfect. Thank you!

Home away from home, with more!

Spent 2 nights with another family and our 5 kids. Kelman cottage over delivered on our expectations with endless comforts that made our stay that much more relaxing. Well stocked pantry, toys & games for kids of all ages (even the adults!), dvds and books, and so many zones to enjoy the view, even if the weather didn’t want to cooperate. Dennis was a particular favorite with the kids. We will be back! Hopefully when it’s warmer to enjoy the pool.

Our family stayed at Kelman Cottage for my daughter’s 21st. We loved the pool area and pizza area for afternoon drinks and the outdoor area by the cottage for morning breakfast. During the evenings we enjoyed using the games provided. Kelman Cottage was quiet and peaceful with lovely views. My daughters enjoyed talking to the owner about the animals on site and joined in with feedings. We loved the cottage and it’s location and wouldn’t hesitate in recommending to others.

We just loved our time at this property

The place was just lovely, it was great for 4 couples. We Loved sitting around the fire pit enjoying the quiet location. Probably the best stocked property I have ever stayed at as well.

The house was fantastic, the property management not

The property itself is fantastic and I had nothing but the highest praise. However due to a misunderstanding on my part, I transferred the rest of the outstanding money after the deposit to their bank details by the date as specified. They then took the money out of my account, meaning I had paid the remainder twice. I had emailed Weekenda 3 times without answer, and my partner called several times to no answer. When we finally managed to get someone on the phone they apologised for their accounts person being "off sick". And that they had received my email and the money would be refunded by the end of the week. A full week later I am still awaiting a refund or any further acknowledgement. The property owners would be best to look to take their business elsewhere and I apologise to them for having to leave this review.

Excellent property

Stayed 3 nights with 6 adults and 3 kids. Plenty of room for all in the property. Nice and clean, comfy beds. The hosts were very friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Excellent amenities, the fire pit and pizza oven were a hit. Would love to come back in summer to use the pool. The kids loved helping feed the horses and cows and patting Dennis the friendly Clydesdale horse. Great location only 15 minutes to the wineries. Would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend this property!
