African Vineyard Guesthouse

Excellent, spacious rooms.

Excellent food. However, I suggest that more attention be paid to hot plates, otherwise the excellent food will be cold in the winter months.

Uitstekende, ruim kamers.

Uitstekende kos. Ek stel egter voor dat daar meer gelet word op warm borde, anders word die uitstekende kos gou koud in die wintermaande.

It was very pleasant and a lovely surprise.

African Vineyard is a gem we have discovered. We went there overnight on our way to the Kgalagadi. From the time we arrived until our departure, it was very pleasant. The staff were extremely professional and helpful. The two meals we enjoy are called. Dinner and breakfast were absolutely wonderful. It was a beautiful room with very interesting and artificial furniture and woodwork. Needless to say it was very clean and neat. The garden and grounds are also beautiful. We will definitely stay there again.

Dit was baie aangenaam en 'n heerlike verrassing.

African Vineyard is 'n juweel wat ons ontdek het. Ons het daar oornag op pad na die Kgalagadi. Vandat ons daar arriveer het tot en met ons vertrek, was dit besonder aangenaam.Ons is baie vriendelik en warm ontvang. Die personeel was uiters professioneel en behulpsaam. Die twee etes wat ons geniet het nl. aandete en ontbyt was absoluut wonderlik. Dit was 'n pragtige kamer met baie interessante en kunstige meubels en houtwerk. Onnodig om te se dit was baie skoon en netjies. Die tuin en gronde is ook pragtig.Ons sal definitief weer daar oorbly.

Beautiful environment, very friendly people.

I slept there alone one night and one night with my husband. The beds are extremely comfortable with top quality linen ─ makes you feel so pampered. The best dinner and lots of friendly people (and dogs). Would love to stay there again.

Pragtige omgewing, baie vriendelike mense.

Ek het een aand alleen en een aand saam met my man daar geslaap. Die beddens is uiters gemaklik met top gehaltelinne - laat 'n mens so lekker bederf voel. Aandete uit die boonste rakke en baie vriendelike mense (en honde). Sal graag weer daar wil bly.

Hierdie gastehuis met sy pragtige natuurskoon, rustige atmosfeer en laaste maar nie die minste vriendelike ontvangs is al die sterre werd.

Sien sterre.

Baie mooi en gerieflik.

Baie rustige, vriendelike en ontspanne atmosfeer tussen wingerde!

Na 'n lang pad was dit baie lekker om op African Vineyard Guesthouse te vertoef! Jammer net dat dit net vir een nag was! Alles is netjies, skoon en 'n lafenis vir die siel! Die kamers is ruim en goed toegerus! Sal hierdie plek, weggesteek tussen die wingerde op Kanoneiland, altyd aanbeveel! Na die ondervinding met die vorige oggend se ontbytpakkies, was dié van African Vineyard 'n baie groot verrassing!

Beautiful place, delicious food.

Will definitely stay there again.

Pragtige plek, heerlike kos.

Sal beslis weer daar gaan bly.

Rest, rest, rest!

Now this is a place that feeds the soul! It was our first visit to the area and definitely not our last. We enjoyed it so much that we're going to make it an annual thing on our way to the Cape from PTA. Everything was perfect as well as the delicious food! Thanks a lot. See you next December!

Rus, rus, rus!

Dit is nou 'n plek wat die siel voed! Dit was ons eerste besoek aan die area en definitief nie die laaste nie. Ons het dit so geniet dat ons dit 'n jaarlikse instelling gaan maak op pad Kaap toe vanaf PTA. Alles was perfek asook die heelike kos! Baie dankie. Sien volgende Desember!

An absolute treat!

What a beautiful room in a tranquil setting. Bruce your are a master chef, we give you 100% for every meal! Elmarie you really went the extra mile for us and we would like to thank for that and for organising Dirk to show us around Keimoes and share his love for the area with us. Keimoes deserves to be discovered! We felt really blessed during our 2 nights stay at African Vineyard.

Roza V
With spouse/partner

Fantasties.

Fantastiese bestemming weggesteek in hart van die wynlande. Ons is heerlik bederf met 'n pragtige kamer, keurige etes, vriendelike personeel, asook Elmarie wat uit haar pad gegaan het om ons te assisteer met persoonlike navrae. Die atmosfeer is strelend met 'n bonatuurlike rustigheid. Mag hierdie mense 1000-voudig geseënd wees met goedheid en guns uit vader se hand!

Riaan F
With spouse/partner

Baie beslis sal ek teruggaan soontoe, wat 'n heerlike ontspannende ervaring.

Kamers is van baie hoë gehalte en die ligging is veilig en baie stil met 'n ontspanne atmosfeer.

Sarelda N
With spouse/partner

Rus vir die siel.

Dit was nie ons eerste keer by African Vineyard nie en sal verseker nie die laaste wees nie. Daar is net mooi niks om oor te kla nie. Heerlike kos, baie vriendelike diens en soveel mooi rondom om te sien. Ek sal hulle met liefde aanbeveel.

Bennie V
With spouse/partner

Vriendelik, gasvry, uitstekende waarde vir geld.

Personeel baie behulpsaam, vriendelik en netjies. Verblyf baie netjies, skoon. Spa op perseel 'n wenner. Behandeling by Spa baie professioneel en heerlike behandeling en ondervinding.

Christine P
With spouse/partner

Baie mooi gastehuis met uitstekende diens.

Ons het een aand hier oorgeslaap op pad Weskus toe, en ek wens ons kon bietjie langer bly. Die kamers is netjies toegerus, en in 'n baie mooi omgewing tussen die wingerde. Ons het die aand by die restaurant geëet, en die diens en kos bas baie goed. Sal definitief weer wil teruggaan.

Heinz Z
With spouse/partner

Luukse, netjies en vriendelike personeel.

Ons is baie vriendelik ontvang. Die kamer is pragtig. Etes wat bedien is was van hoogstaande gehalte. Ons sal dit beslis aanbeveel.

Nicolaas N
With spouse/partner

It was very nice.

Very nice, food was delicious and even though thre were lots of mosquitoes outside, it is understandable since it's the rainy season, but there were no mosquitoes in the room.

Baie lekker gewees.

Baie lekker gewees, kos was heerlik daar was wel baie muskiete buite wat verstaanbaar is in die reënseisoen maar geen muskiete in die kamer nie.

Fantastic.

We stayed in one of the luxury rooms, it was absolutely fantastic. We had a good reception and the car was safe. There is just one thing, I am a vegetarian and the food was edible but I would've liked something better at such a nice place. Other wise everything was 100%.

Fantasties.

Ons het in een van die luukse kamers gebly, wat absoluut fantasties is. Ons is heerlik onthaal en ons motor was veilig. Daar is egter net een ding, ek is 'n vegetariër, alhoewel die kos eetbaar was, sou ek graag meer iets besonders by so 'n pragtige plek wou eet. Verder 100%.

It was a very pleasant experience for us.

The reception was friendly and professional. The room was neat, beautifully furnished and lovely and cool on arrival. There were nice treats in the bathroom, even insect repellent (whihc we didn't need). The meals next to the swimming pool were delicious and tastefully served. Thanks for a lovely visit. We would like to do it again. Thanks Elmari for you friendliness and interest. Thanks also to the staff.

Vir ons was dit 'n baie aangename ondervinding.

Die ontvangs was vriendelik en professioneel. Die kamer was netjies, mooi gemeubileerd en heerlik koel met ons aankoms. In die badkamer is oulike bederfies, selfs insekweerder (wat ons nie nodig gehad het nie). Die etes langs die swembad is heerlik en keurig aangebied. Dankie vir 'n heerlike besoek. Ons sal dit graag weer wil doen. Dankie Elmari vir jou vriendelikheid en belangstelling. Dankie ook aan die personeel.

Taste of paradise on Kanoneiland!

This was my first visit and stay on Kanoneiland, although I have travelled the area regularly. I have decided not to stay in nearby Upington, and this was the best decision ever, to discover this gem. This is the perfect venue for someone who appreciate and prefer space, tranquility, quiet, exquisite food, luxurious accommodation, spa treatments, friendly staff and genuine interest in their guests. Thank you Elmarie for upgrading our accommodation, at no extra cost. Thank you to Bruce and the staff for making special arrangements with the meals ...

Lafenis-rusoord in die middel.

'n Eiland lushof en paradys in die middel van die Oranje. Elegante en kreatiewe ontwerp, netjiese en skoon geboue en omgewing in die middel van 'n baie interessante plek in SA. Goeie persoonlike diens en rustige omgewing.

Uitstekende diens, baie aandag aan detail, goeie kos.

Elmarie is 'n uitstekende gasvrou. Ons is vriendelik en professioneel hanteer. Die kamers is besonder mooi en etes uitstekend. Sal definitief terugkeer.

It was wonderful and breathtakingly beautiful.

We were totally impressed with our stay. The attention to detail was incredible. We definitely will recommend staying over for anyone travelling in the area.

Lynda L
With friends

Pragtig, netjies en baie vriendelik.

Tarief is hoog aangesien aandete uitgesluit is by die prys en jy nie regtig 'n ander opsie het as om daar te eet nie. Aandete en ontbyt was besonder lekker en keurig voorgesit.

Oscar D
With spouse/partner

Heerlike ondervinding.

Van begin tot einde was almal vriendelik, gasvry en hulpvaardig, pragtige kamer, baie smaaklike aandete en ontbyt en inleiding tot plaaslike wyne. Niks was te veel moeite nie en ons is selfs uitgenooi na kunsuitstalling.

Emi W

Ons het een nag oorgeslaap.

Dit is 'n pragtige plek. Alles was smaakvol en van hoë gehalte. Personeel vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Ons het heerlik gebly.

Pleasant stop-over between Kuruman and Clanwilliam.

Comfortable, hospitable and excellent Kalahari cuisine. Enjoyed cycling amongst the Orange River vineyards.

Verblyf by African Vineyard kan aanbeveel word.

Elmarie is 'n besondere gasvrou wat ons dadelik laat welkom voel het. Die gastehuis is pragtig met besondere slaapkamers. Sy kan miskien bietjie aandag aan die personeel skenk wat aan tafel bedien. Hulle is nie op die standard wat ons daar sou verwag het nie.

Waarde vir geld, rustig verblyf in 'n pragtige kamer!

Flinke, vriendelik diens. Pragtige kamers en die lekkerste kos. Die aandete was heerlike en die ontbyt ook! Lieflike, rustige omgewing.

Ideale verblyf vir reisigers op pad na en terug vanaf Namibië.

'n Mooi netjiese gastehuis in 'n pragtige omgewing. Kamers waar ons tuisgegaan het, is stylvol gemeubileer. Die komplimentêre sjerrie en dadels is unieke en aangename verrassing met yskas gevul met enige drankie waarvoor daar 'n behoefte mag wees. Oor die algemeen 'n baie aangename ervaring.

Annatjie M
With friends

Absoluut fantasties!

Lieflike werkende rosyntjieplaas. Ons is gul ontvang deur Hannes, hy het ons ook op 'n vinnige toer van die huis geneem. Toe stap ons in die smaakvolste kamer in wat met antieke meubels versier is, spieëls so groot soos 'n rugbyveld en 'n badkamer so reg uit die boeke uit.

Kobus L

Puik!

Die luukse kamers is baie ruim. Alles was puik.

Trienie C

Fantastiese verblyf. Vriendelike personeel.

Die kamers was baie spesiaal en wonderlike diens is gelewer. Die uitsig vanaf die kamers was baie mooi, en die etes was baie geurig voorgesit. Sien julle verseker weer.

'n Heerlike verrassing. Sou langer kon bly as een nag se oorslaap.

Uitstekende en gerieflike akkommodasie. Mooi en interessante dekor. Heerlike etes. Gasvrye en vriendelike ontvangs. Goeie duidelike kommunikasie en omsien na individuele behoeftes.

Baie stylvolle verblyf waar mens dit nie verwag nie.

Ons het heerlik oorgebly hier. Die kamers is keurig en goed toegerus, en ons aande by die swembad was heerlik. Sal weer oorbly as ek in die dorp is.

Extremely comfortable and hospitable Guesthouse.

Idyllic location, enormous very comfortable rooms that are well furnished. Cuisine excellent, service very good. Would be very easy to spend a few days there totally relaxing in the peace and quiet.

Manuel R
With spouse/partner

Would return....

Elmarie, the owner made us feel more like a friend than a guest. Stunning spacious bedrooms all leading out to a beautiful garden with loads of different bird sounds. Few meters away, you get a breath taking view of the vineyards. The evening was just as special, we were served a lovely dinner and had a chance to meet the other guests.
