I felt very welcome and the hosts were easy to communicate with, friendly and helpful. The cottage itself is very neat and airy and looks like it does in the photos.
It is important to manage expectations when you book accommodation on Airbnb. Kids, dogs, the usual household noise all blends into an enjoyable experience that is supposed to be relaxed and informal. I thought Mandy's household managed all of this very well.
The only downside, and I say this having carefully considered said expectations, and weighing those against the need for honest but fair reviews on a site like Airbnb, is that Noordhoek Cottage contains an attached and interlinked unit with a permanent resident (a door links the two units). This should not be a problem, except that there seems to be minimal sound proofing in place, even when everybody does their utmost to be as quiet as possible.
Having realised that I can hear everything happening next door, it dawned on my that similarly, everything that happens on my side of the door would have an equal impact. So everyone is is trying to be quiet and respectful but it doesn't make for a comfortable or relaxing stay. I tend to book an entire place (cottage, flat, unit) rather than private rooms because I really do value privacy. But if that's not really an issue for you, I can happily recommend Noordhoek Cottage.
