Calm

Reviewed By paulcape172

We have been here so many times and the accommodation just gets better and better. Usually we stay at Raptors Cottage for total peace. The calmness and serenity are just what we need as a break from Cape Town, we can still work as there is wifi here and now they have a power wall installed as well for those Eskom moments. The Barn is also lovely when it is just the two of us, the lounge kitchen and dining room are lovely with the kitchen fitted out by Malco it makes staying here so worth while. With horses and cows and sheep on the farm and plenty of birdlife along with the mountains the outside is as god as the inside. When we come with the family our sn loves the upstairs dorm room of the cottage to get away from us. We have during our many visits discovered great wine farms we have never heard of as well, Oudekloof and Lemberg being yesterdays finds along with Saronsberg, Montpellier, Oude Companies Post, Rijks and Manley. Oakhurst Olive Farm is also worth visit. At night we love the steel boma for a fire sit around with a glass of wine chatting and seeing the stars.

Inverdoorn Game Reserve

Mrs

Reviewed By annahF719NH

Visited Inverdoorn in May 2022 during our stay in Cape Town. We had such a wonderful experience. We stayed at Khughana (5 star tent). We saw all the big 5 animals but best of all - our pool got a daily visit by the elephants (using it as a water hole). ? above expectations!!! We went on all game drives offered and also on the late night drive seeing the beautiful star heaven. If you go - don’t miss this. The star heaven is so clear and spectacular. The food was great! Best of all - the barbecue that the rangers made for us the last night. Loved it! A big thank you ? from Sweden ??

Manley Wine Estate

Manley Wine Estate is a boutique wine lodge and private cellar with luxury bed and breakfast accommodation, self-catering cottages, and a wedding chapel and beautiful function venue with a unique character. Manley is situated in the beautiful countryside of the small town Tulbagh, only a 90-minute drive from Cape Town CBD, and is surrounded by majestic mountain views, sweeping vineyards, and beautiful farmlands. The lodge itself is located towards Winterhoek only 1.3 km outside the historic Tulbagh town center, famous for its museums, unique earthquake history, and many different cultural activities. A short walk across the lawns from the thatch roof Manor House, in which the reception and dining areas are situated, we have seven large double bed and breakfast rooms which are arranged around a shaded courtyard adjacent to the pool. We also have two linked self-catering thatched cottages which are nestled beside the water at the end of the property. Each cottage can accommodate four persons and is ideal for small families. All our rooms are equipped with a private en-suite bathroom, DSTV (satellite TV) with ample available channels to select from, air conditioning, tea and coffee facilities, mini-fridges, built-in safes, and WIFI internet access. Most of our rooms also have their own fireplaces, making them especially cozy in winter, when we have been known to get a dusting of snow on the mountains. Breakfast is included in the cost of your stay if you book one of our double guest rooms. Breakfast is unfortunately not included with the self-catering cottages but can be added on by prior arrangement at an additional cost per person. The on-site eatery caters to guests’ breakfasts and other meal requirements, and the premises has a large outdoor swimming pool and a communal thatched Lapa with a large braai (barbecue) area.

The lush garden/pool area is perfect for any special occasion. It is the ideal base to explore the vineyards, mountain passes, and walk down historic Church Street

Great accommodation to explore Tulbagh

Reviewed By Estelle_C1

Our 3 nights at Wittedrift were an amazing experience in every respect - not only the accommodation in a big Manor House, with a rich history (initially built as a workaround for a family with a young child who did not want to go to boarding school), but also the personalities involved in the management and working in the guesthouse, as well as all the activities available in the Tulbagh area - it was a 3-day feast of olive, wine & MCC tasting, as well as delicious food in venues like the Tulbagh Hotel and Readers Restaurant & Grill in Church Street - Carol Collins, a connoisseur in the kitchen, owns Readers & manages Wittedrift so you really have the best of both worlds, including access to all the information about the valley - she not only provides an excellent breakfast but can entertain you with her stories of life in the village over many years. The staff did their utmost to minimise the effects of load-shedding during our stay, including setting a table for dinner at the fire in the lounge and providing lots of rechargeable LED lanterns on our last night when the lights were due to go off at 20h00. Thank you very much, Carol, Dorothy & the other lady and gentlemen on the staff.

We had an awesome visit to Villa Tarentaal on our way to Cape Town. The owners and mangers Joe and Angie were excellent hosts. The room was spacious and comfortable and had everything one needs. We enjoyed the pool and a walk around the garden. They have plans for some additional accommodation and we wish them well. They also made excellent recommendations for things to do in Tulbagh.

The place is excellent,clean and neat. We used unit 4 and 6 which was self catering. All utensils available. Only negative is the attitude of the owner. She was very cold and behaved in a racist manor. We took a walk around the property which she had a problem with. The husband was a gentleman.
