Beautiful cabin.
Privacy not the best, but it is on private property so it’s understandable.

Perfect Family Getaway in the Winelands
We loved our stay at Chabivin! Just outside Stellenbosch, it’s peaceful and quiet but still close to everything. The corner cottage had everything we needed for a comfy self-catering stay. The kids had a blast swimming, and jumping on the trampolines. With so many great restaurants and things to do nearby, we still didn’t want to leave — it was just too relaxing!
Honestly, there was nothing we’d change — it was perfect!

Peaceful.
I loved the animals, how lovely it was- not too out of town but far enough that you feel like you’re away a bit! really really loved it. Lovely amenities as well, would go back!!!

Was great and kids loved it. Will definitely recommend.
Location was great and peaceful setting. Friendly hosts, central location and safe.
Some small "essentials" not available, but nothing we couldnt resolve. Many other essentials like firewood in abundance😃

Fantastic
Easy instructions with code to the gate to drive in to the property. The studio was clearly marked and keys could be found inside.
The studio itself is really cute, the welcome basket with some chocolate and an information pamphlet was really nice. The bed is super comfortable and you feel like it’s very private. The wood fired hot tub was great for our stay as it got cold at night. The kitchen is very well equipped and you can find everything you might need. We got plenty of wood to use for both the hot tub and the Braai. The dogs are really cute and loves to come say hello. In general the property is beautiful and very serene. Would for sure stay again.

Location nice and quiet
Tin opener old and rusty! Bedding not very clean. Towels were frayed and old. Walls had damp damage - could do with a refresh.

Would come again - definitely my kind of accomodation away from the town and loved the country feel
Location was beautiful , views of the mountain , tranquil , close to Stellenbosch - set up was good , easy access instructions , good communication and friendly owners
Maybe some dishwashing liquid would be good and salt + pepper . Bed was pretty hard and our bedroom sliding door wouldn’t open . But relatively minor issues .

Country Cottage Disappointment
Communication was very poor with the owner.
Towels were so dirty, stained, damp, and worn.
Gravel road to the venue was not mentioned and was in bad condition.
The double bed in the one room was so worn through to the extent that it had a permanent dent, which meant my friend had to sleep in my room, which defeated the purpose of booking a 2 bedroom unit.
The indoor fireplace had an open grid, so we could not heat the very cold and dark space because it would smoke out the unit.
Couches were worn and stained.
Water was not potable, and we were only notified by a note once we entered the unit.
The kitchen layout is uncomfortable.
Walls are cracked and not maintained.
We would have complained and moved out, but we couldn't find alternate accommodation so last minute.
Photos of other units' views were used. We mostly looked out on other units instead of a view. Photos aren't separated by unit, so it is very misleading
Can provide photos if needed.

Lovely break away
The cottage was very well equipped: bath, coffee maker, braai. Lovely surroundings including the vineyards, horse and springbuck.

We had a good stay but feel a bit let down by the room after our previous stay in the Deck Studio.
The location is great and there are lovely animals wandering around. We also really appreciated the welcome basket.
The room felt very dark and smelled of damp. It felt like it needed upgrading (need new towels as they’re old, chairs are a bit worn). We’ve stayed in their Deck Studio before and this felt like a downgrade from that experience.

Great place to spend a few days to explore Stellenbosch and the surrounds
The cottage was so lovely. Fully equipped kitchen, lovely lounge with fireplace (I love a fireplace when it's cold outside), good quality linen and very comfortable and homely feel.
We were staying in the winter - so didn't use any of the outside facilities.
The location is just a few minutes out of the main part of town, with a small shopping centre just 2km away at the turnoff. The farm has a gorgeous horse just roaming around, 2 tame springboks eating grass and the cutest dogs.
Each cottage has space between them so you don't feel like other people are on top of you.
The shower was lovely - hot with decent pressure and space.
The hosts were amazing - very responsive to any questions or issues.
(we found an amazing place to visit - www.dylanlewis.com - it is a huge garden -like a small Kirstenbosch - but with amazing Dylan Lewis sculptures all around the garden - absolutely spectacular and definitely worth a visit - and only 5min away)

Beautiful Gem in Stellenbosch
Loved the view and the tranquility the surroundings bring. The springboks made it extra special and the little dog that pretends he is a springbok🤣🤣
Only that the main bathroom didn't have a shower as well.

Good weekend stay, will go again. Next time we will do it in Sumer
Enjoyed the privacy of the corner cottage
I’m sure it would be so much better in summer time.
The fireplace glass window was broken,
the windows weren’t done properly and due to the rain it came through the windows and we had rain spills on the floor.

Great stay, for the management, it might be worth checking whether everything is working before guests check in.
It was very private and quiet. Management also very accommodating.
The aircon wasn’t working and the pin to enter was very buggy so often struggled late at night.
Also had to turn on the WiFi myself.

No dishwasher and no drying rack for dishes unfortunately.

We won't go back again!
The towels were all old and worn out.
The linen also old with stain marks.
The shower floor needs to be scrubbed, we all showered with our flipflops on.
It would've been great if there was two bathrooms.
The Saturday afternoon was very noisy with some people cross the road fighting with each other. We didn't like the area.
Infested with small ants on day two. Polished concrete floors with many shrinkage cracks. TV not tuned for free to air TV. Very awkward parking space for parking a mid size SUV at the assigned Deck Studio (Luxury Suite) spot, which is next to a very large diameter tree with another tree on the opposite side of the road track. Had a problem with the shower but that was fixed promptly next day. Bed was not comfortable; simple sprung mattress where the springs can be felt on the edge of the bed. Dirt road from main road to property gate is very rough with several humps to go over.

Beautiful room in a tranquil setting.
Nice room and facilities. Nice and quiet and peaceful. Good location for wine farms.
The host could have been a bit friendlier, in my opinion. That might be a bit on the harsh side, but we felt like a pure business transaction. That is the only possible complaint though.

Would definitely recommend and will probably go back!
We had an absolutely fabulous time. Beautiful braai spot, comfortable bedrooms and stunning scenery. We especially liked the dogs, cows, duiker and springbok that come and say hi to you!
The only thing I didn't like was not being able to find braai tongs at either the studio or holiday home. Sacriledge as a South African😋 Otherwise we loved that they supplied milk and ice.

Friendly hosts, clean facilities with luxurious feel, will definitely recommend!
Lovely views, enjoyed the farm pets & animals, modern facilities & close to Stellenbosch & main roads. The big bath was a treat & we made a fire as it was raining outside.
