"Unfortunately power was out in Swellendam during our stay (of course not their fault) but generator was kept on only for short periods of time. Otherwise, beautiful property gardens, pool, and luxurious accommodations."

"Attention to detail is displayed in every corner of this property. Beautiful! Have the soufflé for breakfast."

"Lovely boutique hotel, with excellent locally sourced menu. The staff made us very welcome and nothing was too much trouble."

"Beautiful setting, views were great from our Fish Eagle loft. Walking distance to museums, restaurants and the little town centre. Short drive to farms and nature reserve. "

"From the moment that we checked in, Mike and May the owners made us feel at home. They are such friendly and helpful hosts. The cottage was up a flight of steps and Mike carried our cases up for us. Everything anyone could need was there. Spotlessly clean. A very comfortable bed. A sitting out area overlooking their gardens. A very safe and secure area from which we walked just a short distance into the town. Highly recommended. "

"Amazingly peaceful stay at this beautiful grand old house filled with gorgeous and well mantained antiques. The breakfast was incredible, and we really appreciated the fresh baked gluten free bread! The service was all we could wish for and we enjoyed swimming in the pool outside under the stars. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a break from the city hustle and bustle."

"Beautiful property, inside and out, well located in Swellendam. Owners Nicky and Wim are kind and very helpful. Breakfast was terrific, room was excellent, and there is a pool on-site with lovely views. Highly recommend!"

"Our stay was great. The host was outside and greeted us when we drove up. She directed us to our room (an upgrade) and explained the services, mainly breakfast since it was winter. Speaking of breakfast, the hot plate was delicious, a great start to our morning. Only issue was the cold. It was in the high 30s/low 40s and there was no heat in the room or breakfast area. The extra blanket helped, but there was no where to sit that was a reasonable temperature. The staff we met were all fabulous....
