Fantastic little cottage further up the hill from the main part of town. Far enough for some quiet (you don't hear trucks compared to other times I have stayed almost on the main road), but close enough to pop out for dinner, do some shopping or go to the Mountain Zebra National Park. This is secondary to the efforts made by the host though. Hanna is excceptional about trying to make sure you get the best out of your time at Craddock. The help and advice I got during my stay was above and beyond reasonable expectations, even coming from a hospitatlity background many years ago! Thank you for the best experience on my travels around South Africa!

“Hooked on the Nook”
The cottage is very clean and well equiped, the host is very friendly and helpful even though she had great personal loss she was still a perfect host. The cottage is great value for money with everything you need. We enjoyed our stay. Will stay there again whenever in Cradock.
