Emma's Beach Cottage
Self-catering holiday home in Great Brak River
6 Lynx Road, 6525 Groot Brak Rivier, South Africa
Check live rates on Booking.com
A cream-and-blue cottage perched above Great Brak River, where the sea sits in the frame of every window facing south. Three nearby beaches — Pienaar, Outeniqua, and Klein Brak — are all within a short drive, making this a practical base for anyone who wants to move between stretches of coastline rather than commit to one. Glentana is a little further along the same road.
Inside, the rooms are straightforward and comfortable, with a private bathroom, a bath, and a terrace that extends the living space outward toward the view. Parking is on-site, and pets are welcome — a detail that changes the calculus considerably for traveling with dogs. WiFi is available throughout.
George Airport sits roughly fourteen kilometres away, which means the journey from the plane to the coast is shorter than it sounds. Botlierskop Private Game Reserve is within easy reach for a half-day out, offering a different kind of landscape entirely from the tidal flats and beach fynbos just below.

The Beach House is neat cosy and private. It is approximately 100 meters from the Beach. The beach is a wide open clean space which allow for walks to the nearby lagoon and other beach areas. The Garden offers a nice and comfortable braai area with a beautiful view of the ocean. If you lucky you will see dolphins and whales passing by.
