Monthly Rentals in Vaalwater

We were looking to retreat away from people and noise to get refreshed. This home met our needs perfectly. Nothing but nature on every side of the cottage, with the occasional animal strolling by throughout the day. The house itself was well equipped with comfortable chairs and beds to relax and unwind. Sean and Alex were close enough and very responsive when we needed something, but otherwise you wouldn't even know they whether they were anywhere nearby or not. I also really enjoyed being able to walk around and explore freely with no shortage of places or distance to walk. Highly recommend!

This is one of the most beautiful properties we have ever stayed. The nights out on the patio by the fire pit and under the stars were incredibly memorable. We were there with extended family, but I could see this as a perfect family or friend reunion location. I wish we had decided to stay longer. The house was well equipped with all amenities including decent wifi - very impressive for a rural location. Do be aware that the house is in a safe but pretty remote location (albeit only 3.5 hrs from Pretoria). This was a plus for us, but could be a minus for people that want amenities nearby. With that caveat in mind, I can't recommend the place highly enough.

it's very rare to find a gem like this. In all my years of traveling I've never stayed at such a beautiful and peaceful place.

Our stay at Butterfly Cottage was exceptional. The sunsets are breathtaking making it an unforgettable romantic getaway. The cottage is homely and comfortable, with everything you need. Philip's presentation about the stars was informative, comfortable and awe-inspiring. I'm not sure what we enjoyed the most - the pool, the cottage, the tuckshop, the horses, the bushveld, the game drive or the stars. Our stay was so much more than just a weekend getaway, it was an experience of excellence. I highly recommend you do as much as you can, you won't regret it!
