Tanja was so helpful and kind. The bed was really comfy, the towels thick and fluffy and the Africology toiletries always appreciated. Well decorated and thought given to all you need.

Nikkitd South Africa

We got accommodated in a cottage at the end of a beautiful garden and had privacy and comfort second to none. The place is truly special. Highly recommended.

Mokoena South Africa

Everything was the best. Granny Goose bedding, Serta mattresses and Africology Products and the list goes on. Hot water for bath tub and shower was extra hot! Lovely! Breakfast the next morning was also amazing.

Juliana United States of America

Great location- central to town and in walking distance to all amenities and the Owl House! Great rooms and fantastic outdoor areas! Lovingly and stylishly appointed- by far the best B n B in town! Fulvio and Carla were great hosts!

Michael South Africa

great location, comfortable beds, everything you need.

Janine South Africa

This is a magical and inspiring place in the village of Nieu-Bethesda. Do yourself the favour to visit this jewel. The attention to detail and the interior décor is a feast for the eyes. You just want to sit on the outside stoep the entire day or lounge next to the “old dam” swimming pool. Walking distance from The Owl House museum and restaurants. Believe me you will sleep like a king and queen at the Oude Pastorie! Breakfast at The Bethesda was perfect with tasty locally produced products :)

Leneke South Africa

The owner very graciously attended to our complaint.

John South Africa

Nieu Bethesda is a special and fascinating place. And the Oude Pastorie is a great haven from which to explore it. It has all the required modern conveniences, and is highly luxurious, but still authentic and true to the period of its origin (late-1800s). The gardens are also beautiful! We stayed in the charming Waenhuis, not the main house, which is equally spacious and well-appointed.

Jason South Africa

The property has amazing character and charm. It was very well equipped and the guest house host Tanya was very accommodating and attentive. It was pet friendly and our furry family were able to enjoy the garden with no restrictions. It was a truly stunning stay and we will definitely be back.

Glen South Africa

What an adventurous stay! We had the whole place to ourselves and it feels like you go back in time a century. The house is filled with treasures from way back when and the garden is stunning. Mr giant tortoise was happily walking in the dining room when we woke up, making the experience even more wondrous. Bed was great also.
