Beautifully designed cottage with amazing views.

Beautiful place in a great location, designed and fitted with care and attention to detail. The unexpected bonus was the artistically styled decor, which is very unusual in the Western Cape. Host was warm and helpful.

Amberg met our expectations, and we enjoyed our stay.

We were looking for a self-catering stay with all the amenities in a setting out of town and close enough to the surroundings. And this was Amberg. Our hostess was on hand and dealt with our requirements.

Tranquil.

The property is beautiful and very peaceful. We had a lovely welcome and Helga even managed to get our cottage ready for us before regular check in time. Swimming pool and lounge area was very tranquil. The cottages are well equipped with kitchen items and lovely patios to watch the sunset. The only downside on your cottage was the bed was two pushed together which was slightly uncomfortable and pillows were not great quality. A king mattress topper would easily fix this for people opting for non twin bed set up.

Die beste ondervinding en verblyf wat ons nog beleef het!

Ons was absoluut mal oor ons tyd by Amberg Country Estate! Ons was 'n groep van 10 individue die naweek van my troue en ons het die beste diens ontvang. Alles van die pragtig ingerigte kothuise, die ligging, die wonderlike uitsigte en natuurskoon, die restaurant, en die ongelooflike diens wat ons ontvang het, het verseker dat ons binnekort sal terugkeer. Helga, die eienaar, was 'n absolute juweel. Sy was vriendelik, mees tegemoetkomend, en het ons almal so welkom laat voel. Elke kamer het selfs vars blomme gehad met aankoms. Amberg is beslis 'n versteekte juweel wat jy moet besoek.

The best experience and accommodation we have ever had!

We absolutely loved our time at Amberg Country Estate! We were a group of 10 individuals the weekend of my wedding and we received the best service. Everything from the beautifully appointed cottages, the location, the amazing views and scenery, the restaurant, and the incredible service we received ensured that we will be returning soon. Helga, the owner, was an absolute gem. She was friendly, most accommodating, and made us all feel so welcome. Each room even had fresh flowers on arrival. Amberg is definitely a hidden gem that you must visit.

Baie mooi omgewing.

Mountain View is klein maar netjies en baie goed ingerig. Een feit wat voornemende besoekers moet van kennis neem is die die eenheid deel is van die eienaar se woning. Dit het privaatheid beïnvloed en daar is nie 'n parkeerplek by die eenheid nie. Wat egter die meeste gepla het is die eienaar se 4 honde wat elke keer as 'n mens gaan stap al blaffend agter jou aanloop en die 1 hond het 'n slag probeer byt ook. Deur die nag het die geblaf 'n mens ook wakker gemaak. Dit is onaanvaarbaar en het die verblyf iewat bederf.

Very nice environment.

Mountain View is small but neat and very well furnished. One fact that prospective visitors should note is that the unit is part of the owner's residence. This has affected privacy and there is not a parking space at the unit. However, what bothered me the most was the owner's 4 dogs, who barked after you every time you went for a walk, and the 1 dog tried to bite too. During the night the barking also woke one up. This is unacceptable and somewhat spoiled the stay.

Ek is jammer om te hoor van jou verblyf. Ons sal dit seker onthou.
Ek sal ook vir die eienaar noem van hule honde wat so blaf.
Nog eens baie jammer hiervoor.

Goeie ligging teen berg met mooi uitsig.

Die prys vir die Ateljeewoonstel is te hoog. Die woonstel is nie kuiervriendelik nie en ingeprop teen 'n skuur. Die ander woonstelle op Amberg lyk of hulle beter blyplekke is.

Good location on the mountain with a nice view.

The price for the Studio apartment is too high. The apartment is not visitor friendly and is tucked up against a barn. The other apartments on Amberg seem to be better places to stay.

Hallo,
Jammer om te hoor dat julle nie regtig gehou het van die Studio kamer.
Die Studio is eigentlik net 'n kamer, nie 'n eenheid nie.
Ons ander kothuise is self sorg ingerig en het lekker stoepe vir kuier.
Lekker dag nog verder,

Pragtige, goed toegeruste verblyf met 'n asemrowende uitsig.

Die wooneenhede is baie goed toegerus, met pragtige maar gerieflike binneversiering, en besondere kunswerke in elke eenheid. Ons is baie vriendelik ontvang en het ons geselsies met die eienaars was elke dag baie aangenaam. Die uitsig van die Mountain View Cottage oor die oor die Paarlvallei is asemrowend. Ons het wegneemetes gekry by die restaurant wat op dieselfde plaas is, en kan dit hoogs aanbeveel.

Beautiful, well-equipped accommodation with a breathtaking view.

The residential units are very well equipped, with beautiful but comfortable interior decoration, and special works of art in each unit. We were received very kindly and our conversations with the owners were very pleasant every day. The view from the Mountain View Cottage over the Paarl Valley is breathtaking. We got takeaway from the restaurant which is on the same farm, and can highly recommend it.

Disappointing.

For what we paid I expect the following: The noise from the main road is very bad and you can't relax at all. Trucks and their brakes all the time. A dark room. There were no curtains in bedroom. Just very thin transparent blind and we couldn't sleep at all. At 6am the next morning we had to drive to the builders warehouse and buy thick black plastic pieces and put them with laundry pegs over the blinds to make the room darker otherwise we wake up at 5:30 every morning as the sun rises. Even the moon shines very brightly in the night. There was no TV! We couldn't watch sports on Saturday and had to drive far to find a place in Paarl. There was no wood or blitz. There was one candle for load shedding. There were no swimming towels at the pool. It was also not like the picture above. What it doesn't show is that there is the main entrance that everyone uses right in front of all the houses. While we are in the house, a worker walks out of the woods next to our house with a panga, and over our porch and continues with his garden work.

Wow, the pictures on the web just do not do this beautiful Estate any justice. Clean and comfortable, superb, tastefully appointed furniture, a kitchen with everything you need and a great wrap around porch with awesome views. We will definitely be back. Super friendly hosts, this a wonderful place to sit back and relax.

My clients loved every minute of their stay. The scenery and location is majestically awesome. The unit was clean and had everything they needed in it. They enjoyed the company of the resident dog, Tiger.
