Nothing. All excellent.

Convenient location near Stellanbosch and close to major vineyards. Lovely gardens, surrounded by mountains, lovely well-equipped rooms with cutting edge technology. Hardy and Steffi and their staff could not have been more helpful or supportive. Their local knowledge and recommendations were perfect. It was quite hot during my stay. The large pool and sitting out area was ideal. Also, Hardy installed a ceiling fan in my room, which was superb. Breakfast was excellent. Would definitely return or recommend it.

The welcoming environment.

The place is very beautiful, with a fantastic mountain view. The staff is so welcoming and caring. The owner was always open to support us and shared wonderful tips of the nearby sites to visit. I highly recommend and will surely go back.

Nothing in particular about the property to not like, only the initial introduction and show around of the apartment by the male owner was a little mechanical(lacking authentic gentle kindness), leaning towards miserable in one’s free opinion, perhaps it was just the moment but nevertheless the initial human interaction with him did not match the beauty and goodness of the surrounding nature on the marvellous earth.

Loved the quaint views, surrounding mountains and quietness of the property and land. Also the pear trees, plants, and flowers in the property itself are a marvel. In the evening the silence and dark skies offer a moment to observe the magic with its bright constellation of stars for one to observe vividly and clear with the eyes and heart.

I can’t fault the property. We’d be back anytime.

Location is so convenient between Stellenbosch, Franschhoek and all the amazing vineyards in between. The grounds were beautiful with almost 360 degree mountain views and the rooms were rustic yet stylish with all mod cons. Even though the guest houses were adjoined it still felt very private and the simple breakfast was elegant. Hardy and Steffi were great, so so friendly and helpful, they communicated before and throughout and so attentive to guest needs. They made some great recommendations for eating and visiting and we weren’t disappointed.

Our room was clean and well presented. Luckily our host Hardy showed us around as there are some high tech / energy saving electrics (easy to master, promise!). He was also an excellent font of local knowledge and suggested we talk a walking wine tasting - excellent! The bed was really comfortable, there was also a couple of chairs, storage, a fridge and beverages making via a pod-type machine. Toiletries were supplied. Breakfast was very good with the usual fruit, bread and eggs combination offered. What really made this stay, were our hosts - thanks so much!

Hardy the host is the kindest guy I met, he has great recommendations for wine tasting and activities around the Banghoek Valley. The room is really pampering and with cool lighting technology. Breakfast is full with delicious food. The Estate and facilities are nice and quiet. You should stay at least 2 nights here, it's really good.

We had a lovely room plus a patio. The room was nicely warmed with the air conditioner and heated under blanket on the bed.

It rained a lot.

Hardy and Stefanie are very accommodating and great hosts. They gave us many tips on places to find good restaurants, wine and Stefanie volunteers at a local charity to bring hope and opportunity to the impoverished children in the Kylemore environs. Simply stated they are wonderful examples of caring people. We were so touched by their philanthropy that we decided to donate to aitsa.org. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious and I especially loved the fruit salad bowl each morning. Beds were very comfortable and the duvets are heated. Orangeville is on 2 hectares of land (~5 acres) with a swimming pool and plenty of secure space to roam. Finally, there was a variety of proteas in the dining area. NB Stefanie knows a lot about these indigenous flowers. It was great value for the money.

Everything went well,

Very nice place to stay in the area, beautiful gardens and ideal for business when you need a place to disconnect. Good breakfast, And the room full of technology! any device you can think of to control lights, temperature, etc it is there! Helpful and kind Hardy and Steffy, thank you,

There is no water during load shedding which is an inconvenience, but unavoidable. The setting is amazing, but I recommend having a car - it is possible to get Ubers but they are expensive and can be difficult to get. The rooms have loads of helpful gadgets and bits of tech, but it does mean that there are limited sockets available for charging phones etc.

The guesthouse is in a gorgeous setting - the gardens are beautiful and the rooms are well finished. It is very quiet and peaceful. The owners and staff were lovely - really friendly and always ready to help with recommendations.
