Frequently Asked Questions

Can't find your answer? WhatsApp +27 76 746 6011 or email camille@rtsc.co.za.

What is the maximum occupancy?

The maximum occupancy for our rental is 6 Adults and 5 Children.

Is there parking available?

Yes, we have free onsite parking available for guests.

What amenities are included?

Our rental includes a fully equipped kitchen, linens and towels, Wi-Fi, and a smart TV.

Is the house open after the May 2026 flood?

Yes. The house was fully rebuilt and has been welcoming guests again since 19 October 2026. Read the full story on our Flood & Rebuild page.

What are the check-in and check-out times?

Check-in is from 2:00 pm and check-out is by 10:30 am.

Can I bring My Boat?

Yes, of course. Our refurbished jetty has fenders to protect your boat while you're moored, and you can launch from the public launch site by the Malgas Ferry (Pont). Please take extra care on the water: the river bed and channels have shifted since the May 2026 flood, so sandbanks and depths are not where they used to be. You need a licence to be on the river, and there are by-laws you should make yourself aware of.

What is the Farm Road Like?

It's about 42km of gravel road off the N2, and conditions vary. When it's recently graded it's easy going, but for the last few kilometres we recommend a car with good ground clearance because of loose rocks. See our Videos page for the route.

Can We Fish?

Absolutely. The Breede is known for big grunter, and you can fish right from the garden or jetty. Remember your fishing licence.

How do we get the keys when we arrive?

Thomas, who lives next door, will either hand them over or leave them in the door for you, depending on your arrival time.

Is it safe in Malgas?

Very safe. We've been coming to Malgas for over five years with no issues. It's a friendly community where everyone is here to relax, but we still suggest locking up when you go out.

Any Noise issues?

Please keep music down after 10pm, as there are neighbours on either side. Most of the time it feels like you have the river to yourself, apart from the birds :)
