Well situated for access to Somerset West Franschoek and stellenbosch etc.. no complains staff friendly room comfortable ....our only reservation was the pesky mosquitoes in the room which really require to be addressed. Other than that , a lovely well run place
really relaxing stay and staff were very friendly and helpful, although we had a flood in in our bedroom due to a storm the staff attended to it with efficiency and were most helpful
This guest house is in a lovely area, also convenient for visiting the Winelands and the False Bay coast. The gardens are very attractive. Our room was large, the bed was comfortable and the modern bathroom spacious. The staff were all very pleasant.
There were some small details which would improve the accommodation - somewhere sit to use a laptop (they have free wi-fi), hang up a wet coat and a waste basket would be useful. Breakfast was ok but rather surprisingly no fresh fruit is available.
The staff was friendly and accomidating. I arrived at midnight and teher were still staff to greet me. Clean rooms and good Wifi. All around great stay.Jon
A wonderful facility in beautiful surroundings, very good staff and excellent breakfast Great value for money

Good place outside Stellenbosch
A very nice place. The check-in, staff in the restaurant etc is so friendly.
But it seems a bit run down - especially the swimming pool area and the sun-beds. It's a shame since the garden and the park is such a nice area.
