Very comfortable and neat place to stay. Thank you for your kindness and hospitality shown towards us. The best for the future. Regards
Steven, Port Shepstone, Kwa Zulu Natal - 03/01/2003


We wish people knew about your place as we do. This is a 7 Star place. We like the style of this building and the area surrounding it. It is just a pitty we dit not bring the children along. We will advertise your place because we stayed in other places in Oudtshoorn and elsewhere but not one like this. We enjoyed our stay here and it would not be the last you see us. Your hospitality has impressed us. Thank you very much. Keep well, God bless you.
Mr & Mrs Kika - 02/03/2007

Baie dankie! Dit was "excellent", ons het dit baie geniet om hier oor te bly.

Dit is nou ons derde besoek, ons is soos altyd beïndruk deur die gasvryheid en die klein goetertjies wat so bedagsaam is. Baie dankie vir rus, vrede en voëls in 'n rustige omgewing.

You have thought of every little thing that a family might need. Perfect & at such a good price!! Beautiful surroundings!

We came home from a lovely week's holiday yesterday and have to tell you that we really loved our most comfortable stay with you the night of the 24th October.
