Fantastic place with lots of character. What an incredibly beautiful and unique place. We enjoyed staying here so much.

Fantastiese plek met baie karakter. Wat 'n ongelooflike mooi en unieke plek. Ons het dit so geniet om hier te bly.

Excellent for us old people, but a nuisance for the grandchildren. Very nice stay. The antiquity of the place did not appeal to our teenage grandchildren. We as adults experienced many memories of our childhood. I read two and a half of the historical books. Thank you very much for that. The next morning's visit to the Camdeboo National Park was once again a highlight. My vehicle had to spend the night on the road. This will make me book a different place to stay next time.

Uitstekend vir ons ou mense, maar neusoptrekkerig vir die kleinkinders. Baie lekker gebly. Die oudheid van die plek het nie byval gevind met ons tiener kleinkinders nie. Ons as volwassenes het heelwat herinneringe belewe van ons kleintyd. Ek het twee en 'n bietjie van die historiese boeke deurgelees. Baie dankie daarvoor. Die volgende oggend besoek aan die Camdeboo Nasionale Park was weereens 'n hoogtepunt. My voertuig moes in die pad oornag. Dit sal maak dat ek volgende keer 'n ander blyplek sal bespreek.

Thank you very much for the review. Here you really step back in time and I think the teenage children will perhaps one day look back on it with fond memories! There is a single garage, which used to be a carriage house. Here and there there is a car that does not fit. Unfortunately, due to the location and historical character of the house, we cannot do much about this! But Graaff-Reinet is fortunately still relatively safe. We are glad that you otherwise had a nice stay. We try to preserve the character and history of the house and offer people an exceptional, authentic experience.

Baie dankie vir die resensie. Hier stap mens werklik terug in tyd en ek dink die tienerkinders sal dalk eendag met goeie herinneringe daaraan terug dink! Daar is 'n enkel motorhuis, wat voorheen 'n waenhuis was. Hier en daar is 'n motor wat nie pas nie. Aan dit, weens die ligging en historiese karakter van die huis, kan ons ongelukkig nie veel doen nie! Maar Graaff-Reinet is gelukkig nog relatief veilig. Ons is bly julle het andersins lekker gebly. Ons probeer om die karakter en geskiedenis van die huis te bewaar en vir mense 'n uitsonderlike, outentieke ervaring te bied.

Historical Karoo charm. Historical Karoo charm. Structure and contents of the house are very impressive. Comfortable and clean plus pet friendly. We really enjoyed our brief overnight stay and will most definitely book again. Host of benefits including safe and secure location and close proximity to amenities.

Wish we could stay longer. I loved everything about this house! It is very spacious and clean and furnished beautifully. And the backyard is huge - my two miniature schnauzers had a ball! If I could, I would move my whole family to Graaff-Reinet, and specifically this house, permanently.

Perfectly located, beautiful, slept "nicely". Beautiful gem of a house, lovely stay.

Pefek geleë, pragtig, "lekker" geslaap. Pragtige juweel van 'n huis, heerlike verblyf.

Fantastic and convenient. Fantastic place to stay, wish we could have spent a few days there. Large backyard is a winner for small children.

Fantasties en gerieflik. Fantastiese blyplek, wens ons kon 'n paar dae daar spandeer. Groot agterplaas is 'n wenner vir klein kinders.

It was so nice, we would want to stay there again. It was a wonderful experience to spend the night there. The house is fully equipped with high quality amenities. Although our vehicle could not fit in the old-fashioned carriage house and had to stay outside on the street, everything was safe and we did not feel uneasy.

Dit was so lekker, ons sal weer daar wil bly. Dit was 'n heerlike ervaring om daar te oornag. Die huis is volledig toegerus met hoë kwaliteit geriewe. Hoewel ons voertuig nie in die outydse waenhuis kon inpas nie en buite in die straat moes bly, was alles veilig en het ons nie onrustig gevoel nie.
