    The bed was a bit hard and difficult to get used to on the first night, but otherwise good. The photos of the cottage don't show that the main bedroom is down a few stairs.

    The cottage was lovely with beautiful views of the garden and a short walk to the swimming pool and separate entertainment area with a big kitchen. The smell of jasmine was lovely while we were sitting on the stoop watching the birds.

    We had a problem closing the automatic security gate when checking out after putting the key in the lock box. The gate kept reopening and we didn't want to leave the security gate open. Fortunately the owner just arrived home to help us.

    Everything about this place is excellent. The host has thought of everything. Fresh coffee and a coffee press, teas, milk, cookies, chocolates on your pillow, quality shower gel, shampoo, cotton buds , note book, pens, a book of recommended places to visit and restaurant suggestions. The apartment was immaculately clean with fresh quality linen. Hot shower, comfy beds . The view from your own outside eating area is directly across to the mountains. It is in a quiet residential area. The owner deserves an award for this excellence.

    Very accommodating hosts. We stayed there for a race and had to leave the car for a bit longer, beyond the check out time. The team made a plan so we could leave the car safely on site and get a shower after the race in the pool house. Going above and beyond to make it work for our tricky time plan - we value this a lot. Thanks a ton! Besides that, the Guesthouse is very charming, comfortable beds and well equipped room on a neatly curated property with great amenities right in the heart of Swellendam. We sure will be back!

    It was very cold even though I did run the overhead heater. The smaller heater was not working but I'm sure the host has tended to that by now. There were extra blankets and throws which was good.

    This place was spotless! Spacious with a lovely outside deck, perfect for a stopover one night stay. The towels and bedding were good and the decor was cute all round. Lovely touches like chocolates on the pillow and a jar of sweets on the desk to enjoy while I worked.

    I liked everything about the property.The only thing that need a touch is putting a smart t.v in the room,the same as the one in the Shed.Other than that everything is 10 out of 10

    Thanks to the host with the lovely welcome,she’s the best.I loved everything about the property from the location of it with beautiful views.Having a Shed to Braai and have fun inside even if it’s raining or not,that’s the best part I like.Waking up in the morning and see the beauty of nature.That on it’s own is amazing.Also my woman loved everything about the property hence we came to celebrate her birthday weekend.She also liked the thoughtful service where minor things a woman would need are available in the room.
