Guest Reviews
- Petro (10/5): Superb hospitality and luxurious accommodation. - A beautiful guesthouse with very comfortable, spacious rooms and the warmest hospitality. Breakfast was a treat so was the view of the garden. We loved the whole experience.
- Gerrie (9/5): -
- Scholtz (10/5): Perfect guesthouse for short and long stays. Everything you need. Very good value for money. Will definitely return. - Everything. Cannot ask for better hosts. Beautiful spacious luxurious room and bathroom. Exceptional breakfast. None
- Emile (9/5): -
- McArthur (10/5): - Our room looked out onto a pretty garden. The breakfast catered for all tastes and included a good selection of fresh fruit.
- Erika (9/5): -
- Johan Frans & Hendriena Maria (9/5): Beautiful old world vibe with comfort and flair - Lovely vibe and comfort. Quiet and cozy. Friendly staff and a great breakfast! The room was a bit dark... maybe a few more spotlights but nothing serious
- Teun (10/5): Fantastische paar dagen met belezen, vriendelijke, betrokken en wijze hosts en hun staff - Sfeer, vriendelijkheid Nvt
- danielgts (9/5): - prachtige tuin, locatie op loopafstand centrum, heerlijk ontbijt.
- Caryharri (9/5): Super - We loved our stay in this beautiful home. Full of amazing art work and antiques. The garden was fantastic and a super place to relax and enjoy the sun or read. Breakfast was bountiful and the Hosts couldn't do enough to make your stay comfortable. Unfortunately they lost 1 point as they didn't have AC just a fan which was a bit clunky. We were there on an extremely hot day though and in the terrace room. The rooms in the main house which was a lot cooler were probably OK.
Just a factor for some. But we still recommend staying here!

- Steven (8/5): Very hospitable hosts, restaurants nearby, lovely breakfast. - Johan and Madelaine were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Breakfast was lovely with lots of choice including freshly cooked eggs, bacon, sausage etc. The garden is large with plenty of outdoor seating options. The property is not modern in the slightest but that is part of the attraction. There are 3 or 4 very nice restaurants less than 5 minutes walk away. Secure parking on site and free wi-fi. We were quite happy with our stay.

Йохан и его супруга невероятно отзывчивые и дружелюбные хозяева этого прекрасного отеля.
За вкусным завтраком, попивая чай или кофе, можно мило поболтать с хозяевами.
Отель удачно расположен, пара минут до центральной улицы. Есть своя закрытая парковка. Все прекрасно!
Жаль, что у нас не было времени остаться на пару дней в этом отеле)

Upon arrival we were greeted joyfully by the owner who walked us through and showed us around, she could not have been more kind and generous. Our room was perfect and sadly it was only for a one night stay. Breakfast was cooked to order which included plenty of sides such as yogurt, fresh fruit, toast, lots of different teas, coffee, cheeses, croissants etc. I had a very pleasant conversation with the owner over breakfast. Truly an enjoyable experience. We definitely recommend staying here if you are ever in George.
