A Little more info...

Sandpiper Cottages nestles within the Fransmanshoek Conservancy area. We provide local travelers and international tourists with an idyllic retreat as they escape to the peace and serenity of BOGGOMSBAAI in the Western Cape. Just about halfway between Port Elizabeth (Nelson Mandela Bay) in the Eastern Cape and Cape Town in the Western Cape, Boggomsbaai is a rustic seaside village that is a celebration of the South Africa of yesteryear. Our authentic Cape cottages and our unspoiled nature area cannot be fully appreciated in one-night visits. Each of the self-catering Sandpiper Cottages exudes an elegant charm, thanks to its Cape cottage style. There are cottages with 2, 3 and 4 bedrooms, and each has satellite TV a lounge, open-plan kitchen, dining area, and outdoor patio, as well as a fireplace, which is irresistible on chilly Western Cape nights. Bedrooms each have a private bathroom. The suites are comfortable and inviting, with a distinctly homely appeal. This stunningly beautiful bay at the start of the Garden Route but off the main routes offers a range of leisure activities. Suntan on our golden beach, body surf, catch your own fish, beach comb on your own or with a guide along a section of the famous Oystercatcher Trail.
