Welcoming spot to stop on the Cape Town to Johannesburg route.
Liked : The owners were incredibly welcoming. Our car was parked in a secure location. We were offered advice about where to eat. The restaurants in town are wonderful! The room was spacious and well appointed with light bulbs in the lamps that provided light even during load shedding. The breakfast was delicious! Close to the freeway. Highly worth it.
Disliked : There wasn’t anything about the property at all we didn’t like.

BeverleySouth Africa · Mar 31, 2026 8Very good
Liked : Friendly and helpful welcome. Stay was comfortable. Despite the rain on our arrival, Mike offered us umbrellas and we were able to walk up the road and enjoy a goid but a little pricy meal.
Disliked : The mattress was a little lumpy but was tired so it wasn't a problem
Shower head needs replacing. -

GarySouth Africa · Jan 17, 2026 8Very good
Loved the stay and would recommend.
Liked : The history of the old Barracks was very interesting and gave one the sense of being in an old British barracks. Our hosts were very warm and engaging.
Disliked : Three minor items that could be improved on - the variable speed of the roof fan in the bedroom did not work - so it was either on or off and not possible to moderate the airflow. The step up between the bedroom and bathroom is abnormally high and a real concern in the dark. The breakfast spread was varied and generous, but too large and hence a little pricey - would suggest two price levels - full breakfast and half breakfast or continental breakfast. My partner eats like a bird!
