We quite enjoyed it.

The location is great and the place is well maintained. The food and service at the restaurant were good, and we enjoyed the wine tasting and, of course, the wine. Breakfast was not great - we waited about 30 minutes to be served after we had arranged a specific time for breakfast the day before. What was really disappointing was to be served sandwich brown bread (no other options) at a farm owned by Italians - surely a proper Italian-style bread would have made such a difference!

Baie rustig en die wynproe was 'n lekker ondervinding!

Dankie, ons het baie lekker gekuier. Baie gasvrye mense en die wynproe was uitstekend. Jul vriend, ons het hom Piet gedoop, was baie oulik, goeie kennis en vriendelik gewees.

Very comfortable and happy weekend away with friends.

Charming manor house with friendly and hospitable hosts. Very well appointed, lots of braai wood and equipment. Our stay was a very happy and contented one.

Very warm, pleasant and hospitable experience.

Very comfortable, clean and modern rooms. The manor house has an old-world feel but is very clean, bright and open. The braai facilities were good - braai wood, firelighters, grid, tongs, etc. all provided. The wine is excellent from the blanc to rouge - a good variety of Italian varietals, all made by a very capable Italian winemaker. A good personal experience. Breakfast was very good. The host was hospitable. Nice and quiet.

Amazing experience.

The location and staff at Ayama Manor House deserve more than 5 stars. The location is great. Very tranquil and relaxing; it's like you're hours out of the city when in reality you're about 20/30 minutes away from the hustle and bustle. The team at Ayama were friendly and helpful; the service was efficient and professional.

Get ready to be transformed to another world!

Wow wow wow is all that comes to mind. From the moment you enter, it is as if you are transformed to another world. The surroundings are so beautiful, and they go out of their way to make you feel special. The rooms were spotless, as is the rest of the house. The wine tasting with the host is a must, and we thoroughly enjoyed the company. Sadly, we did not get a chance to visit their restaurant but had breakfast in the manor. Next time we will definitely visit the restaurant as the menu looked divine!

Gesellig, skoon, ruim, heerlike kos en wyn! Fantastiese staf!

Ons het verskriklik lekker gebly. Hulle dink aan absoluut alles. 'n Braaibox in aande uitgesit. Die span is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ayama Manor House sien ons vir seker weer. Kan baie plekkies van daar af besoek!

Hul verdien meer as net 5 sterre.

Heerlike verblyf in die wynlande. Ruim historiese huis, met alles wat nodig is, en meer. Braai area met hope hout. Gawe gasvrou. Veilig en rustig. En die padstal het die lekkerste eetgoed en wyn.

Ayama Manor House was our accommodation when attending a wedding in Wellington.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating for our request to check in earlier. Ayama Manor House was an ideal destination for a one-night sleepover. If you plan to stay longer, note that there is no hanging space for clothes in the 2 rooms that we occupied. It could be a problem if you want to stay longer. The staff is super friendly and overall lovely.

Rare find.

We had a great stay. The room was small, but it had everything we needed for the one night. Breakfast was amazing and we were very impressed with all the effort. The wine tasting and restaurant are amazing and the wine is fantastic. This is a hidden gem and I am so glad we found it.

They give close attention and thoughtful attention to their guest. They were very hospitable and welcoming to us. Eric was an absolute delight. The farm environment was relaxed with beautiful views. Prime wine and olive oil! Highly recommended.

It was lovely, we enjoyed everything about our stay. The staff was friendly and kind. Thank you.

Interacting with the animals on the farm was so much fun, it was great that we had the house to ourselves, and our daughter enjoyed the freedom.

On arrival inhumane.

I had to sleep with my family in the car outside the gate from 8 hours on the road. A worker saw me and opened it, they had security and night workers with whom they could leave a key, because they leave their lives in security and night workers (gate man) hands.
