We absolutely loved staying at Riverbed Guesthouse! The room + bath are spacious, super clean, stylish and comfy. We really appreciated the little details e.g. the coffee machine incl. milk frother. The garden is awesome with a nice pool, a little stream in the back and a beautiful view on the mountains. Further, the owners were super friendly - we immediately felt welcome and at home. Thank you for having us!

We have recently stayed at La Sosta and I must say that it exceeded all my expectations. The room we stayed in was absolutely adorable - it was cosy, comfortable and had all the amenities one could ask for. The attention to detail in the room decor was impressive, making it the perfect retreat after a long day of exploring. What truly made our stay special was the restaurant at the property. The meals were some of the most delicious and intricate I've ever had - each dish was a true work of art, and every bite was an explosion of flavor in my mouth. I was blown away by the creativity and skill of the chefs. But what really set this property apart from the rest was the kindness and professionalism of Salvatore and Nina. You can see that they put their heart and soul in everything they make, which is something rare and beautiful. I cannot recommend this property enough - it's the perfect place for anyone looking for a cozy retreat with fantastic food and amazing hospitality. Thank you Salvatore and Nina for making our stay so memorable! :)

Cheré made what we thought would simply be a pit stop on our journey along the Garden Route into something very special with her attention to detail and desire to make our short stay special. We were on our honeymoon and Cheré pulled out all the stops to make our stay very memorable. Don't hesitate to book a stay here. You will love it.

We enjoyed our short stay at Birdsong cottage. Its well located within a few minutes walk of several restaurants as well as the older, historical part of Swellendam. The cottage is situated within a beautiful garden. under trees and was cool in the summer heat. It also has a fire place for winter evenings. We noted that the cottage was tastefully styled and the pictures were an accurate reflection of how it looks. The king sized bed was very comfortable and had quality bed linen. Colin was a great host, friendly and informative. We would stay there again.
