Orange-Ville Lodge & Guesthouse

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.

Nothing. All excellent.

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.

The welcoming environment.

The location is about 15 mins drive from Stelly on the road to Franschoek (20 mins drive) so ideal to explore both. There were several vineyards within short walking or driving, we ate at a couple and the food was decent, the views even better! Orange-ville itself was excellent, very comfortable with some nice touches. Breakfast was buffet style with fresh cooked eggs so was filling. I had a back spasm and needed some manipulation. The hosts sorted that day which was typical of their really supportive approach. I would recommend.

all good

Well maintained, open spaces, scenic. Great breakfast and fabulous hosts.

Suited us just fine.

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.

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.

Great location, peaceful and made to feel very welcome.

Nothing really notable, use of the aircons were a bit fiddly
