48 guests' feedbackLovely spot for a short stayover, everything at hand we needed!
The front view initially worries you as it appears slightly neglected. The room is neat and clean.
Very nice! Very pretty!
Very nice, we had our dogs with us and it was nice for them too to have a little garden to stretch their legs. The veranda is also very nice.
Good location and easy to find.
Very nice stay in the cottage. Equipped with everything you could possibly need. Will go out of her way to help you.
Walking distance to all amenities. Safe and tidy.
Walls look like they have mold on them. No plates knives or forks were available.
The unit is very well equipped and if I had questions, I could communicate with the owner via WhatsApp and they were answered in detail each time.
The Yard has everything needed and offers ample space, unfortunately no sea view.
We were so surprised with The Yard! What an exceptional place to stay, delightfully central in Gordons Bay. The detail in this accommodation is outstanding: Every little thing works perfectly and is in its place. It was especially nice for us traveling with our dog, because our room had a private little garden. Great, we will definitely be back.
The atmosphere was very calming.
I will definitely use the accommodation again and recommend it to other people. Thank you very much.
It was lovely to stay there. Marinda is a great hostess and I will definitely book there again if I go to Gordons Bay.
The Yard is within walking distance of the beach, the shops and all restaurants.
Traveling with our 2 dogs we could not have asked for anything better! Our hosts could not do enough for us.
Everything was exactly as we expected. Marinda is a lovely hostess and received and welcomed us personally. A lot of attention has been paid to detail and recycled materials have been used to give it a lovely farm feel, without anything feeling cheap or out of place. The accommodation is a 5 minute walk from supermarkets, a liquor store, a laundromat, takeaways, a biltong shop and a 10 minute walk from the main beach, with places to eat, drink and shop on the edge of the loveliest bay in the country . The only light, negative comment is that there is a lot of noise around the house from early on, which didn't really make sleeping in late possible. We will definitely stay here again.
Very nice stay. Will definitely stay again. Very Friendly welcome. Got a good night's rest.
Marunda's friendly welcome was greatly appreciated. The quiet and rest was just what we wanted.
The owners were very helpful and friendly.
Hallalujah.
I am a woman who came to attend a course in the Gordons Bay area. The Yard was the perfect, cheap, safe and close to blue steam spot to stay and made for a fantastic time! I will definitely come back for the friendly people and excellent hospitality! Thank you!
I would definitely recommend this place.
Beautiful with a lot of initiative with the house and apartment! Had a great time - thank you!
Marinda goes the extra mile to make everything perfect for the guest.
It was relaxing and me, my wife and mother-in-law really enjoyed it!
We really enjoyed our stay at The Yard. The unit was clean, tidy and had all the necessary amenities. They also went to great lengths to accommodate our canine children. We would definitely recommend The Yard.
We had a very nice getaway and rested, just what the soul needed. Thank you very much.
Lovely place to stay over, safe and tranquil.
Very affordable for such a nice, peaceful and clean place. All the necessities were there for a lovely overnight stay.
Will definitely stay at The Yard Gordonsbaai again in the future.
See stars.
Merinda made us feel very welcome, the room was neat, clean and comfortable. A few suggestions on our part: A nameplate outside will help a lot, water bottles in the fridge in the room would have been nice and also a radio or TV.
The Yard is a great place to just relax and recharge.
Quiet and cute place.
Fulfilled all our needs. Marinda was great!
The shed was not at all what I expected but we managed to make it work it was quiet peaceful and private just what we needed the owners were friendly and tried to help where they could and made our stay comfortable would come again anytime go back
It was our honeymoon and we were surprised by Marinda to upgrade us to the Cottage with the foot bath as a gift. The place was so nice clean and vintage with a bit of Southwest to it. Marinda went out of her way to make us feel so welcome and everything she did extra to make everything so nice and special, the rusks, the chocolate, oh yes, and the Guvas in the fridge with cream. Will definitely visit The Yard again.
Was a pleasure from arrival to departure. Real relaxing place. Close to everything.
Can highly recommend The Yard. Neat clean comfortable rooms. Owners are very hospitable and helpful and have gone out of their way to make us feel at home. Our little puppy also enjoyed playing in the spacious yard. Value for money. Great service.
The outside of the house is well planned, but the ceiling height of 2.3 m causes the living room and kitchen area to become unbearably hot. The bedroom, kitchen, living room, shower, bath (which may not be used) and toilet are separated with curtains. If you use the toilet, you have to chase the people visiting out of the house. Because of the weather, two of the three nights it was not pleasant to use the outdoor barbecue. The braai inside the house intended for inclement weather was closed for use. Because of the scrap iron and construction debris on the site, parking was also very difficult. There was air conditioning in the bedroom. The hot water system had to be turned off every day. I don't know why because there is no saving about it. No TV was available.
Marinda and her husband are very pleasant and friendly. Their little dog Nina quickly made friends with our little dog and we had a great stay. Meals outside on the stoep are delicious. The beach and cute shops are very close.
My stay at The Yard was very pleasant. It was very neat, clean and the environment very quiet. Value for money. Well located and close to the beach and Strand. I will definitely stay there again. Easy access to the highway and the airport.
Hospitality par excellénce! Well-equipped for winter and summer stays. Fireplace, outdoor playground and for the family there is a dishwasher and washing machine for long stays.
This place is indeed a hidden gem with tiny unexpected details, which makes this place feel like a home away from home. The kind nature of the hostess Marinda makes check-in feel warm and welcoming.
Thank you very much for the hospitality and the wonderful stay. It's unique with the antiques.
We can recommend The Yard, it's excellent accommodation and very well located. Host and hostess very friendly and hospitable.
It was peaceful and quiet. I was pleasantly surprised. It is value for money!
