Overall an absolute positive overnight stay, highly recommended.

Absolute good value for money, very quiet, excellently equipped rooms, nice Jacuzzi and pool. One star less than maximum because of some chirping crickets in one bedroom and some undefined black crumbs in the bed. The rest of the whole house was more than clean, in the best conditions. So that was probably a one-off inattention.

Pragtige gerieflike akkommodasie.

Ideale verblyf vir ons behoeftes. Alles baie netjies en skoon en gasvrou vriendelik en behulpsaam. Die lugversorging en groot swembad het welkome verligting verskaf teen die hitte.

Beautiful comfortable accommodation.

Ideal accommodation for our needs. Everything very neat and clean and hostess friendly and helpful. The air conditioning and large swimming pool provided welcome relief from the heat.

Besonders mooi en luuks.

Helene is 'n wondelike gasvrou en het in al ons behoeftes voorsien. Die kamers is luuks en ruim. Die braai-area en swembad is pragtig en ons het self ys en die gebruik van die 'boombox' gehad. Ons kuier was super spesiaal! Uitstekend!

From the time you arrive until you leave is an absolute pleasure. This place is worth 5 times more than what we paid for. I have been in 5 star lodges and hotels and never was it as awesome as this.

One of the most beautiful places we have ever stayed at - we will definitely be back.

After a full day's driving from Gauteng to De Doorns we were exhausted and ready to rest. Upon arrival we were so warmly greeted and made to feel so comfortable. The Country Home is exquisitely decorated and truly beautiful. I would go back any day.

Heerlike kuier. Helene is 'n voortreflike gasvrou.

Daar is maar min uiteetplekke in De Doorns. Helene het vir ons 'n vuur reggepak gehad, borde, messe, vurke, bakke, eetgerei, als reggehad sodat ons kon braai om die swembad. Heerlik en baie bedagsaam van haar.

Great visit. Helene is an excellent hostess.

There are very few places to eat in De Doorns. Helene had prepared a fire for us, plates, knives, forks, bowls, cutlery, everything so we could have a barbecue around the pool. Lovely and very considerate of her.

Luukse en elegante verblyf tussen die wingerde.

Hierdie is 'n elegante en luukse gastehuis, geleë tussen die wingerde in die Heksriviervallei, met lieflike uitsigte op die omliggende berge. Die gasvrou was baie vriendelik en verwelkomend. Ons kamer was groot met pragtige meubels en 'n uiters gerieflike bed. Daar is 'n groot swembad, asook luukse braaigeriewe. Ons beveel dit sterk aan.

Luxurious and elegant accommodation among the vineyards.

This is an elegant and luxurious guest house, located among the vineyards in the Witch River Valley, with lovely views of the surrounding mountains. The hostess was very friendly and welcoming. Our room was large with beautiful furniture and an extremely comfortable bed. There is a large swimming pool, as well as luxury braai facilities. We highly recommend it.

Personal paradise in one of the most beautiful areas in the Western Cape.

Helene was such a great host. We wished we booked more days after we left. The newly renovated, stylish Guesthouse has everything from a central pool, Jacuzzi, air-conditioning and the beauty of the Western Cape hills.

Spectacular, exceeded our expectations, clean and Helene was incredibly accommodating.

This is one for the books! If we ever go back or go on a long distance drive, we will stay here again. Helene was incredibly welcoming, such a kind and warmhearted person. She showed us our room, informed us that we are allowed to use the facilities (Jacuzzi and braai area as well as use their music box), we were able to message her if we needed anything. We stayed in Room 2, Crimson, which was clean, modern, with good WiFi signal and a round queen-sized bed. One of the best places we have stayed at. Thank you, Helene.

Ongelooflike kwaliteit en waarde vir geld.

Die hele verblyf ondervinding was onverbeterlik met die gasvrou Helene - 'n absolute ster. Die kamers is 5-ster plus en die detail prysenswaardig. Reisigers sal ver moet soek om soveel waarde te kry. Ek beveel baie sterk aan.
