Reviews

• "Peace and tranquillity"

  02 September 2019

  "Wild Almond is a special little treasure in a wonderful area of South Africa. This is our second stay at Wild Almond and once again Dennis has provided an exceptionally warm welcome to his special little cottage. The little personal touches make Wild Almond worthy of a five star establishment. Its a cosy, tranquil little cottage which is very comfortable and very well appointed. A very detailed information brochure compiled by Dennis is provided on arrival and details all relevant information about all the wonderful and unique eateries available in McGregor and the nearby area. Having stayed at a few other establishments in McGregor, Wild Almond is definitely our first choice and we will be back to enjoy this little cottage again."

  "What an amazing gem. Gorgeously outfitted with crisp cotton sheets and thick towels, all the cutlery and crockery (and bottle openers) you need, a stunningly deep plunge pool, and all the extras like custom-made cds and quality hand soap and cream. We received such a warm welcome from gracious hosts Dennis and Mo, and can't wait to go back. Categorically 5 star."

  14 March 2017

  "Wild Almond Cottage is everything it should be: a perfect period cottage in keeping with its surroundings, with an interior revealing a deft artistic hand in its decorations and furnishings. There is no air conditioning but our lazy day under the stoop was breezy and there is a refreshing splash pool. An excellent dinner at Karoux, 5 minutes walk away was a treat. Thank you Dennis!"

  10 April 2013

  "We spent a stunningly relaxed Easter weekend in Mcgregor, largely due to the fact that Wild Almond is, quite simply, the ultimate "getaway" cottage. Appointed with charm, immaculate detail and great care, the cottage is warmly inviting and super-comfortable. From the thoroughly-equipped kitchen, to the quality cotton duvets, to the fantastic selection of CD's and DVD's, we couldn't have been more content. To our hosts Dennis and Mo, whose love, thoughtful touch and care is apparent in every nook and cranny of this special place - thank you so much. We'll be seeing you and Wild Almond again, we greatly hope!"

• "Romantic getaway"

  13 February 2012

  "From the moment we arrived, every detail of this magical cottage appealed to us. Dennis, the kind owner, had contacted us with directions and advice on where to shop which allowed us to arrive stress free. The charm of this cottage manifests in the elegant décor and feel. Everything had been thought of. Add to this the fact that it is only a short walk from the the village centre, and there really is not a better place to sit back and enjoy McGregor. Thanks Dennis!"
