Devon Castle Forest Lodge

A beautiful hidden gem. Perfect for a romantic getaway. Accommodation had everything we needed. Nice and secluded and loved the privacy. Hot tub was an extra bonus in the icy weather

Nothing to complain about

Good location, very friendly and helpful hosts. Unit was very clean and neat. Having Kunjani winery virtually next door is really nice, we ate there almost daily.

It's a great location in Stellenbosch, close to some lovely wine farms and the roads are well lite and maintained. The cottage itself is beautiful and quaint, also clean.

It is very odd that the bathroom is downstairs and the bedroom is upstairs, which means in colder months you have to make a mission upstairs to dress where the aircon is. It was extremely cold when we stayed and I asked the host if they could provide a heater for downstairs and she didn't even respond to me - I think it's just basic hospitality to ensure guests are housed in a comfortable temperature and a small heater costs no more than R300 from Clicks/Dischem - so I feel like this should have been organised (FYI there is only an aircon and fireplace upstairs so downstairs is FREEEEZING cold and probably boiling hot in summer). I also do not recommend this Property for the elderly or people with back/knee issues as the stairs are very steep (loft style bedroom). The bathroom is not easily accessible from the bedroom so god forbid you need to use it in the middle of the night.

so peaceful with beautiful surrounding.
