Pros: Centrally located, quaint, pretty garden/pool areas, breakfast and features

Cons: Stayed twice - in winter and the heating wasn’t great. In summer and ventilation isn’t great. So that’s something I’d say needs an upgrade. But it d pretty place and the staff are fantastic. And we’re set to return for a 3rd visit a few weeks from now. Worth it

Lovely

Pros: IT is a lovely place with the most amazing staff, an awesome breakfast and the best pool area’s in Stellenbosch. Very close to the center and completely safe.

Cons: IT really needs restoration. The buildings are beautiful, old English style but the layers of paint can’t hide the damage. Restore it and you’re one of the most beautiful places.
