“Wonderful stay”
We loved staying at the Tortoise Retreat! The host is really friendly and has the sweetest Beagle Snoopy, which came by to say hi a lot and was one of our highlights staying here. It‘s really close to the Langebaan West Coast National Park Gate!

“I will definitely be going back to Tortoise Retreat whenever I go to Langebaan”
I loved the covered parking, my own little patio with a fountain and the beautiful fully stocked room. Bed was comfortable, bathroom fairly new. Chris, as a host, was friendly and waiting for me on my arrival.
