• Heidi (10/5): Wunderschönes liebevoll renoviertes historisches Haus - Killassy House ist ein liebevoll renoviertes historisches Gebäude mitten in Graaff-Reinet. Die Einrichtung ist sehr geschmackvoll passend zum Charme des Hauses. In der Nacht ist es in der Umgebung sehr ruhig, obwohl das Haus nur wenige Schritte vom Zentrum der Stadt liegt. Der Garten mit dem schattigen Sitzplatz und dem Swimming-Pool ist wunderschön. Wir hätten es noch viel länger an diesem schönen Ort ausgehalten. n.a.
• Fanie (10/5): Excellent - Situated at the correct place
• Lerato (10/5): True five-star hospitality in a personal, understated setting. - Absolutely fabulous guesthouse. A beautifully restored old home that retains the charm of a small Karoo town while offering timeless, high-end comfort. The décor is elegant and thoughtful, with excellent quality crockery, cutlery and linen. The housekeeper was always available and helpful, which added greatly to the experience. We booked one night and extended our stay by two more. We will definitely return for a longer stay.

The warm welcome with a personalised message in the foyer was extra special. The attention to detail is immaculate. We will definitely go back for a stay. Wish we could have stayed longer, but we look forward to a visit there again and will stay longer this time, just to enjoy the house a little longer. From the cleanliness, to the crisp linen, to the personal touches, to the fabulous pool. One of the best stays we have had in a long time! Well done on creating a place one can call home for a night or two :) Everything was exceptional. I cannot think of anything that could improve.

• Grant (10/5): Landie communication was fantastic. Thank you. - Perfectly situated. Spotless accommodation with attention to detail.
• Theron (10/5): Exceptional -
• Themba (10/5): Beyond superb in every way! - So much! From the lovely aroma that greeted us as we entered, to the incredibly well designed fittings everywhere and the sumptuous blankets and towels we were overwhelmed by a deep sense of pleasure and joy. Our hostess was fully engaged and generous in her interactions with us. The beds are extremely comfortable and our room had a lovely window seat that just made you want to stay. The care and attention that has gone into creating this oasis in the Karoo is visible everywhere. The gardens are beautifully maintained, the pool sparkles, and the space around the pool, including loungers and a comfortable antique table and chairs is inviting. The kitchen is truly fully equipped and includes a large fridge-freezer and also some nice extras thrown in. Having access to an inverter was comforting and the aircon in our room was very welcome to warm the room up perfectly during a coldish snap. The lounge and dining rooms are exquisitely decorated, furnished and provisioned. This 110 year old house must be in a particularly proud moment of its existence and we feel privileged to have been here. Nothing at all. This place is about as close to perfection as is possible.
