Guest Reviews

• Volker (10/5): Komfortables Cottage in perfekter Lage - Fantastische Lage, direkter Strandzugang. Eigenes Cottage mit perfekter Ausstattung.
• Liezel (10/5): Best of the best in Sedgefield - We loved everything. The host Ruth went out of her way to accommodate a request. Even went to the shops and bought 4 options for non-slip shower mats as we had 3 pensioners (80-94 years) in our group. The place was perfectly clean, had comfortable beds with great clean bedding and had everything we needed. We will definitely be back. Just behind the dune of a beautiful beach. Nice stoep with braai area and the sound of the waves and birds all around. Loved it all.
• Neil (10/5): Excellent accommodation - Excellent location, spacious, well maintained, has all the necessary items for self catering Nothing
• Annette (10/5): - Close to the beach. Comfortable and clean apartment Sorry we could not see the sea downstairs.
• Friedrich (10/5): -
• Rina (10/5): -
• Grant (10/5): We had a wonderful stay at The Gull in Sedgefield. The host Ruth, was gracious, the location was excellent, the cottage - On the door step of to the beach, private garden with nice bbq area. Washing machine and clothes line.
• Anastasia (10/5): - The cottage was super clean and comfortable. The host was so welcoming and attentive. You are I walking distance of a convenience store, beach restaurant and the spectacular pristine beaches. We especially enjoyed the access to a wonderful private patio too.
• Thomas (10/5): -
• Kate (10/5): - The cottage we stayed in was fabulous with everything you needed to make your stay your own. From beach towels, beach umbrella, cooking facilities it had everything. The beach is on your doorstep, walking through the garden and up some steps, although you can walk the road way to avoid the steps. The garden of the cottage was enclosed so we could let our toddler freely play in the garden without a worry. The outside shower was appreciated after a trip to the beach to get rid of the sand. We would definitely stay again as it was fab! Nothing it was fab!
• Petra (10/5): - Lage super, direkt am wenig besuchten Strand, Restaurant direkt nebenan trotzdem nicht laut, Märkte samstags in Sedgefield, nette, hilfsbereite Gastgeberin, freundliches nicht aufdringliches Personal
• Sally (10/5): 非常好👍 - 地點很好。住宿設備完善，而且後面還有美麗海灘可以玩水🥰 無
• Boris (10/5): Schöne Unterkunft an einem wunderschönen Strand. Wer Strand und Meer liebt und einen zentralen Punkt für Unternehmungen - Die Wohnung hat eine tolle Lage, direkt hinter einer Düne. Man geht über die Terrasse durch den Garten über die Düne nur wenige Meter und steht an einem langen, weißen Sandstrand mit schöner Meeresbrandung. Ein Traum. Wir haben mit Wein und Käse abends bis Mitternacht auf der Düne gesessen. Direkt neben der Wohnung ist die Pili Pili Beach Bar, wo wir gefrühstückt und auch mal abends gegessen haben. Von Sedgefield aus kann man gut viele Unternehmungen machen. Die Vermieterin war sehr herzlich und freundlich. Es war alles schön!
• Amina (10/5): - The location was superb. Beach towels Washing machine Cooler box Flask Board games All included

• Marika (10/5): Dec 2024 review - What a wonderful place to stay for your holiday. It's neat, clean and on the beach. It has everything you need. We will definitely go back to the Gull.
• Sydney (10/5): This was an exceptional stay. - We visited The Gull as a party of nine – six adults and three children aged 9 and 5 years, and 9 months. We occupied both the available cottage and apartment, so had the place to ourselves. I rate our stay as exceptional. The accommodation is excellent and well-maintained. It is right on the beach, i.e. one can walk through the garden gate, over a dune and one is at the sea-side. It was special to have a firepit to sit at in the evenings as a family. During the weekdays, the accommodation is cleaned by the staff, and there are fresh towels and linen on request. Ruth is a wonderful hostess. She is people-orientated and available to her guests. We would all highly recommend The Gull and rate it as 10/10.

• Mark (10/5): Exceptional - The property was comfortable and clean, and beautifully landscaped. Parking was easy and secure. There is an excellent restaurant next door where you can get breakfast, drinks, pizza, or a full meal. Access to the beach is from the yard--simply walk out the gate, hike over the dune and you're there. Sedgefield is a great little town. Make sure you get to the Wild Oats Farmers Market on Saturday morning. Great fun and food. Ruth lives in an adjacent building on site and is available when needed, and she is pleasant and easy to deal with. Nothing--a great place!
