Excellent as always

Our second visit to this wonderful Guest House and we will always stay here. Can't fault it. They go out of their way to ensure you are welcome and when we left something behind on our first visit they arranged for it to be sent to us.

Cannot fault this wonderful place!

Can't fault this wonderful Guest House. We are also staying on our return trip travelling north. The cottage (5C) is so spacious - in fact, it's huge! Very comfortable, everything you need, friendly owners. Fabulous. There is parking in a garage for our car. The restaurant is just 50m away with excellent food.

Very accommodating and excellent service

Convenient stop-over between Gauteng and Plett. They were super accommodating as they allowed us to move the arrival to one day later even though we have missed the cancellation period.

Charming Karoo respite

Charming accommodation that is in a row of historical buildings. The chimes of the church bell remind one of simpler times and there are lovely Karoo restaurants within a 3 minute walk.
