Beautifully restored hotel in the special Barrydale. The hotel is beautifully restored, very stylish and comfortably equipped, very friendly and helpful staff. I can highly recommend it. Barrydale is a very special town.

Pragtig gerestoureerde hotel in die besonderse Barrydale. Die hotel is pragtig gerestoureer, baie stylvol en gerieflik toegerus, baie vriendelike en behulpsame personeel. Ek kan dit sterk aanbeveel. Barrydale is 'n baie besondere dorp.

Great staff & common facilities, poor food, undersized room, basic ablutions. We came with great expectations and indeed the staff at the hotel were wonderful. Our biggest letdown was the food we had when we dined at the hotel on our first evening. That was a real pity as the hotel had acquired a great reputation for its dinners. This was one of the reasons we had chosen to stay there. My wife's lamb kebabs were virtually inedible - they were so tough. Even though the staff went to great pains to give her something else (which was much better), the meal unfortunately did not come up to the rave reviews we had read beforehand - and we are not picky people. The food is definitely overpriced. In other respects, our stay was enjoyable even if not amazing. There is a wonderful courtyard and rooms downstairs where one can relax, and the bar with all of its interesting old-world spaces is very cool. All of this would have been fine except for the price we paid per day which, considering the facilities we have enjoyed at that price in B&Bs, was, unfortunately, overpriced. All in all, not great value for money. We were there on two very hot days and for the price, I would have expected air conditioning instead of the wall fan that we had to keep on all night - though it didn't help that much, it was better than nothing. The hotel has wonderful staff though.

Real small town feel, slightly spooky, charmingly beautiful. Very nice, it not only met our expectations, but completely exceeded them. Rick and Sue run a very good show! And what a nice town!

Regte klein dorpie gevoel, effe spookagtig, bekoorlik mooi. Baie lekker, dit het nie net aan ons verwagtinge voldoen nie, maar dit heeltemaal oortref. Rick en Sue run 'n baie goeie show! En wat 'n lekker dorp!

Feel like old friends. Everything was beautiful when we got there. It was quite cold and raining, but inside the fireplaces were burning and we were warmly received. Service was unbeatable and we will definitely go back again.

Voel soos ou vriende. Alles was pragtig toe ons daar aankom. Dit was redelik koud en het gereën, maar binne het die kaggels gebrand en ons is warm ontvang. Diens was onverbeterlik en ons gaan beslis weer terug.

Nice place with nice food. Food is very good, people are friendly and the hotel is something unique. The bed does not sleep well, it urgently needs new firm mattresses! I didn't stay the last night because of back pain from the bed. Other than that it was all good, thank you.

Lekker plek met lekker kos. Kos is baie lekker, mense is vriendelik en die hotel is iets uniek. Die bed slaap nie lekker nie, dit het dringend nuwe stewige matrasse nodig! Ek het die laaste aand nie oorgebly nie weens rugpyn van die bed. Verder was dit alles goed, dankie.
