Lodges in Swellendam

"Charming colonial style property, beautiful rooms and public areas and wonderful scones and afternoon tea on arrival! Superb restaurant and attentive staff and owner. Highly recommend"

"Lovely property. The owner greeted us even though we arrive after 9:00. Breakfast was delicious and in a light and inviting room. The hotel is a cosy collection of older small buildings. Beautifully maintained. "

"Es war ein sehr schöner Aufenthalt! Besonders gut gefallen hat uns der ruhige und entspannte Innenhof mit kleinem Pool und dass man sein Frühstück auf der sonnigen Terrasse genießen konnte. Einziges Manko: die Zimmer sind ziemlich hellhörig. Das hat uns für eine Nacht aber nicht groß gestört."

"Nice property and staff."

"Lovely place - amazing bed "

"My wife and I booked one night at the A Hilltop Country Retreat and it was exactly that, a retreat. We had a great stay, the unit was comfortable and clean and will definitely book again and recommend to friends and family. "

"Beautiful grounds and pool area, accommodation with everything we could need and restaurant was exceptional."

"My wife and I stayed for two nights. We had the Africa Suite which was comfortable, well furnished and spacious with a huge naturally-lit bathroom. The property itself is well maintained with lovely semi tropical gardens and a nice pool area. 4 stars would not be enough but I would have given 4 1/2 if I could for a couple of reasons. (1) the hotel is a long way from the centre (30/40 minute walk at least and) where most of the restaurants are and (2) although efficient, the lady on reception was not particularly welcoming (but not unpleasant) and seemed to have little interest in us, something that we have not found with other hotels during our stay. Would we go back? Probably not although it really is a very nice property for a relaxing stay."

"Excellent service! Beautiful and comfortable rooms. The owners are very hospitable and make you feel like home!"
