We were warmly welcomed into a charming and well-kept guesthouse. Our room was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The deck was a highlight, offering a stunning sunset over the mountains—one of the most memorable moments of our trip. Breakfast was excellent, freshly prepared and served in a relaxed atmosphere. A stop we will fondly remember.

The rooms are cozy and clean. The breakfast was excellent: strong coffee, fresh squeezed orange juice, and a choice of delicious menu items. Exceptionally professional and pleasant staff. Owners were delightful and truly cared about our comfort and stay. I cannot say enough about the on-site restaurant. We travel all over the world and we found the restaurant to be world-class: beautiful presentation, creative dishes, excellent wine list, knowledgeable and professional service, and plentiful entree combinations.

This is an old Dutch house from the end of the 18th century. It has a lot of old furniture. It looks very stylish. Everything is clean, neat and everything works. Plus convenient parking. Shops and restaurants are within walking distance, and the beautiful old town itself is quite safe.

We only stayed here for one night and the accommodation was great, cozy and comfortable. We had a quick swim in the pool, and after that we headed to a restaurant for dinner, for which Walter helped us make a reservation as it was a busy Saturday evening. We appreciated Walter's recommendations for our drive back to Cape Town, as we ended up seeing beautiful scenery thanks to that! :)
