SimoneSouth AfricaThe cottage is lovely and spacious. We were three couples and yet we all felt like we had our own space.
Only having one bathroom for 3 bedrooms is not ideal.
JasonSouth AfricaClean and comfortable. All facilities avaliable
The kids room just needed a door. Cleaning staff arrived before checkout time

Questions about Potluck Cottage
What time is check-in and check-out at Potluck Cottage?
Check-in is from 2:00 PM. Check-out is by 10:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Potluck Cottage allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at Potluck Cottage?
Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.
Does Potluck Cottage have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
How do I book Potluck Cottage?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
