Guest Reviews
- rebecca (10/5): Ideal - Friendly and helpful staff, perfect location, beautiful gardens, great breakfast and comfortable bed. Perfect stay!
- Marina (9/5): Recomendable - Habitación cómoda y amplia. La anfitriona muy amable y atenta a nuestras necesidades. Buena ubicación
- Wolfgang (10/5): - Sehr gut Lage, Ausstattung sehr gut, sehr freundliche Gastgeberin. Jederzeit gerne wieder. Nichts suszusetzen.
- Henk (10/5): Deze plek benadert de perfectie! Ga en ervaar het! - Een paradijs vanaf het moment dat je de tuin inrijdt. De tuin is zo smaakvol, kleurrijk en goed onderhouden je kijkt je ogen uit.
Het hoofdhuis is prachtig ingericht en voelt letterlijk als een thuis.
En Kathy de gastvrouw is een schat en heeft geweldige tips over hiken, restaurants, mooie winkels enz enz
Kortom, een droomplek! Niets
- Silvia (10/5): You feel at Home - Es war fantastisch - wunderschöner Garten- wunderschöne Unterkunft und sehr nette Besitzer
- Joanne (10/5): An oasis of calm and excitement hospitality from the host - An absolute gem. We loved our 3 night stay here. We’d oped for the self catering accommodation and really appreciated the space. Cathy was an excellent hostess, her recommendations were all spot on. We loved Robberg 5 beach which is a show all away. We hiked the full Robberg Nature Reserve early and it was spectacular, also recommend the Harkerville Parkrun which is close by. The location couldn’t be better. Nothing
- Denise (9/5): Plettenbergbaai - Fantastische plek, 15 min lopen naar het strand en restaurants.
Zeer aardige mensen en Kathy is erg behulpzaam.
Gewoon een hele fijne plek om een paar dagen te zijn! Helemaal niets!
- Tania (10/5): Relaxed and stress free stay - Friendly and professional staff Wifi speed was not that great
- Stacey (9/5): -
- Anna (9/5): Underbart! - Fantastiskt boende, underbara rum. Poolområdet är ngt mer slitet än det ser ut på bild.
- Burns (10/5): We enjoyed a gracious welcome and very comfortable stay. - Excellent and beautifully prepared.
- Nikhl (10/5): -
- virgine (8/5): -
- Maud (9/5): Very nice stay in Plett with great host - What a lovely place and host in Plett. Beautiful garden and nice little swimming pool. We walked up to the beach which was nice and did a lot of different stuff in the area. The place itself was clean and comfy! Thank you! Cant think of anything
- Helen Celine (10/5): - Lovely place with great staff!
- Tobias (10/5): - Nur empfehlenswert. Die Gartenanlage ist ein Bijou. Das Schlafzimmer in einem Gästehaus in der Gartenanlage bietet Alles, was man braucht für den Aufenthalt. Kathy als Host war top.
- Katja (10/5): -
- Vida (10/5): -
- Fiona (8/5): Wenn man Hunde mag - ein sehr schönes Haus! - Wir hatten ein Apartment, das offenbar für Selbstversorger ausgelegt war - das kam bei der Buchung leider nicht klar heraus, es war aber kein Problem, vor Ort noch das Frühstück dazuzubuchen. (Dieses war reichhaltig und zu einem sehr fairen Preis).
Kathy, die Managerin des Hauses, war einfach fantastisch!! Sie hat uns sowohl mit hervorragenden Empfehlungen betreffend Restaurants und Aktivitäten versorgt, als auch große Hilfestellung gegeben, was die für uns persönlich leider sehr unerfreuliche Situation mit den Hunden der Hausbesitzer betraf.
THANK YOU, Kathy! You were a really wonderful host! Auf Booking.com wird leider mit keinem Wort erwähnt, dass die Hausbesitzer mehrere Hunde haben. Dies ist nicht für jedermann eine angenehme Situation, zumal die Hunde auf dem gesamten Grundstück herumlaufen und man an ihnen nicht vorbeikommt. Der Kommentar des Hausbesitzers (wir haben sofort zu Beginn gesagt, dass mein Mann sehr starke Hundeangst hat) hat uns ziemlich geärgert: „naja, ihr müsst mit denen jetzt klarkommen, denn die wohnen hier!“… finden wir respektlos (wir waren sehr höflich und haben uns mehrmals entschuldigt, dass die Situation so ist, wie sie ist), und sehen wir nicht so! Immerhin sind wir zahlende Gäste. Hätten wir gewusst, dass es Hunde gibt, hätten wir hier nicht gebucht.
Auch wenn das Haus selber (und der Garten!) wirklich schön sind!
- Alexander (10/5): SFelt like staying with a family. Super! - Very nice stay. Cathy gave us great tips for the stay. Great breakfast.
- Warren (10/5): Really lovely, well run and friendly guest house. - I loved Cornerway House. My room was a standalone building essentially in the garden and it was lovely. Beautifully decorated and perfectly clean. The breakfast, too, was impeccable. It’s a bit of a walk into town but to be fair I knew that when I booked it and I like walking in any case.
- Janea (8/5): War ganz gut - -Managerin sehr nett

There was nothing not to like!
- Ian (9/5): A wonderful find. -
- Barbara (8/5): A really lovely property - Beautiful garden and lovely furnishings. Very cosy and comfortable Only one thing, the sliding door between the bedroom and bathroom in our en suite isn’t a snug fit and is rather flimsy so no bathroom privacy!
- Louvet (9/5): Superb - Beautiful guest house, very nice staff and help with the activites and restaurants in Plett, lovely garden in addition. Thank you for your welcome ! We should have stayed longer !
- Colleen (10/5): 2 night stay for farmhouse curtain installation - What a wonderful home from home guest house. our rooms were lovely, breakfast was divine. The gardens are beautiful. Jay and I felt like royalty.
