Raka Cottage – a hidden gem! We stayed for two nights at Raka Cottage, hosted by the wonderful Norah. The cottage is tucked away in a lush, tranquil garden that offers complete privacy — the perfect setting for rest and relaxation. The accommodation itself is beautifully maintained and equipped with everything one could wish for in a self-catering stay — from quality kitchenware and comfortable bedding to thoughtful décor that makes it feel like a home away from home. Norah went above and beyond to make our stay special, providing generous treats and personal touches that truly set the experience apart. Her communication was excellent from start to finish — proactive before our arrival and attentive afterward to ensure that everything met our expectations. A delightful stay in every way — peaceful, comfortable, and hosted with genuine care. We would gladly return and highly recommend Raka Cottage to anyone seeking comfort and hospitality in a serene garden setting.

Pleasant. Raka Cottages is fully equipped with more than you need for a weekend stay and Norah is an excellent hostess. Would love to stay there again. A lovely private place to stay.

Aangenaam. Raka Cottages is volledig toegerus met meer as wat mens nodig het vir 'n naweekverblyf en Norah is 'n uitstekende gasvrou. Sal baie graag weer daar wil gaan bly. 'n Heerlike private blyplek.

Clean, private and lots of space. Norah put a lot of effort and attention to the finer details. Little things like fresh fruit, yogurt in the fridge and real coffee make a big difference.

Netjies, privaat en baie ruimte. Norah het baie moeite gedoen en aandag aan die feiner details gegee. Klein goedjies soos vars vrugte, joghurt in die yskas en regte koffie wat 'n groot verskil maak.
