Great place to stay in Oudtshoorn - all you need (and more) to feel comfortable in a very nice house with a warm welcome, a cosy pool & garden area, good breakfast and individual advice for your trips. Gerry is the perfect host. He has a lot of excellent recommendations on where to eat and what to do in the region; not only around Oudtshoorn but he also took the time to explain some of his favorite spots on our onward journey. We will come back next time - thank you Gerry - your recommendations all worked out perfectly well and we could profit a lot from your tips & hints!

Our stay at the Gumtree House was excellent. Gerry is such a great host, we loved to talk with him about the life in South Africa. He also called two restaurants for us that normally would not take reservations during the theatre festival Breakfast is superb and the room was comfortable and has everything you need. The pool was very refreshing cause the Karoo can get hot. Absolutely recommended! Thanks Gerry, hope to visit again.

Honestly one of the best stays I've had. Everyone that works there is exceptionally friendly, the cottages are well maintained and clean. I cannot recommend this place enough, we will definitely be back!

Our room was very comfortable with a lovely outlook that felt quite rural, even though the town was literally on our doorstep. The best thing about Gumtree was our outstanding host, Gerry. Nothing was too much trouble for him. He is a walking encyclopaedia on Oudtshoorn, its restaurants and the attractions of the entire Karoo area. He went the extra mile to make sure we missed nothing!

The host contacted us en route with directions and advice for timings etc I et the Swartberg Pass. He was most particular and attentive. The place is lovely, well maintained, clean and thoughtfully furnished. We wished we could have stayed longer. The pool is small but clean and with a big deck surround so very functional, sunny and a nice relaxing touch after a long drive.
