Very beautiful place with very welcoming owners. This break at the end of the working day was very relaxing. For Europeans not used to loadshedding, bring mosquito repellent to protect yourself from their arrival when the fan stops! This will not stop me from coming back each time I will visit Paarl. I will then also be able to dine at the restaurant, which I have heard so much about.

Margret, our host - was great. Super friendly and helpful. Overall, however - the place is visibly old and is in need of general cleaning (the inside of the room's toilet bowl was terribly stained) and just tidying.

Lovely farm with horses, alpacas, geese, dogs and an ostrich. Great food at the restaurant. Breakfast good. Only hassle in our room was that it was a little noisy when there was a family with kids next door. Pool was very welcome, as it gets very hot in Wellington during Summer and Autumn.

10/10

We booked their "budget room" but it had a noisy person next to it. Our request for a change was granted immediately and we were upgraded to a lovely cottage at no extra charge for the 2 days we had booked. Very personable owner and staff, breakfast on the terrace of the wine farm's beautiful 18th C manor house. Stunning mountain and vineyard setting just out of Wellington, which is a good base for visiting Paarl, Franschhoek and Stellenbosch.
