We loved the homey feel of Buchu. High quality bedding, lovely undercovered braai/stoep. A very safe area, right across from the village green, a 5 minute walk from restuarants & shops. An easy 10 minute walk to the river area, from where you can stroll along a peaceful boardwalk/trail. Our dog loved the huge backyard. Our hosts were so friendly and considerate. We'd recommend this home, for sure.

We loved everything it's was perfect

Quaint . Location location . Huge space with gorgeous garden and swimming pool .

Stayed in February 2025

The lawn could have maybe been mowed but I'm stretching - didn't really bother us. The two big chairs in the lounge were a bit in the way - I would imagine in winter if you wanted to access the fireplace, they would get in the way.

A large self catering house with access to a pool which was perfect on a hot afternoon swim. Kitchen was perfectly kitted out with everything we needed. We made full use of the braai room and very large garden. 2 big bedrooms where comfortable. Location of the house was perfect - 2 mins from the main road but not too close that it was noisy.

Facilities and location as well as host were excellent.

If we would consider a longer stay eg 7-10days, then access to laundry facilities (washing machine) would probably be preferable.

The location & facilities were perfectly suited to our family and pet requirements. The children really enjoyed the pool and our pet had so much fun playing on the lawn.

The front gate was difficult to lock.

A lovely cottage well located in the beautiful village of Stanford. It was spacious, comfortable and well equipped with everything we needed. It felt like home. We were sad to leave and hope to return one day. Marié was an excellent host. She was there to welcome us, gave us useful information on the area and kept in contact.

Nothing to dislike. Was great

A quaint and cozy cottage ideally situated close to all amenities and very well equipped. A wonderful logfire, smart tv, gas stove and solar lighting all contributed to a convenient stay. We happened to be there during the floods, and our hosts were amazing. They were continually checking to make sure we were fine and if we needed anything and updating us with road closure information, etc. They went above and beyond. Also gave us great advice re local restaurants and activities.

Comfortable, well appointed little cottage. There was lots of space and a nice braai outside. The host was very helpful and quick to respond to any questions. The cottage is close to a park and a number of lovely restaurants.

Quaint and well equipped, located within walking distance of eateries and shops. Colette was a lovely host who contacted us before arrival and was there when we arrived, sharing information and recommendations about the village. .

Buchu is a charming historic house in a lovely location with a pretty garden with views to the mountains and the Church Steeple. The Veranda at the back was particularly good. There were welcome extras like tea, coffee, rusks and cooking ingredients. The owners were very helpful and friendly. Good books and info in the house. Felt like proper Stanford home. Can highly recommend.

I would have preferred off street parking

Great location and within walking distance of restaurants. The common is across the road and provides an open space for people to walk dogs and kids to play. The WiFi worked during all the power outages which was very helpful.

The location was excellent, in the center of the village ,opposite the village green. The house is comfortable, plenty of room, very well equipped well furnished, nice garden, we didn't use the pool. The house has lots of character.
