A real 'out of Africa' feel to ironstone cottage!! It was furnished with lovely wooden furniture that was all in good condition, lamps and wall pictures were lovely, and bedding was very comfy. The bathrooms were also very well updated and easy to use.
Proactive management of our booking was good,with clear instructions to find the cottage.

Graaff-Reinet is a gem for anyone who loves history and (well-preserved) historic buildings. Most visitors pass through while heading toward the coast or back to Joburg and drive straight through the centre of town and out the other side - but the best of what this city has to offer is OFF the main road... on the side streets. So many beautifully preserved historic buildings, unexpected coffee shops and galleries, museums and places of interest. Definitely one of South Africa's more charming small towns (for those who would just take a moment to leave the main road and LOOK).

There is a lot to do and see in an around Graaff-Reinet. Unfortunately we could not stay longer than one night. It is a very historical town with beautiful old buildings. The scenery and reserves in the area are stunning.

What a wonderful place. So clean and well-maintained.
What a wonderful place. So clean and well-maintained. Wonderful to walk around the town and see all the beautiful homes. I loved it. And to have the Camdeboo National Park right there is just wonderful.

It's a lovely town with so much history to it.
It's a lovely town with so much history to it. The museums, while needing modernization and some TLC, have some interesting stuff particularly at the military museum. I would have loved to have had the time to visit some of the places where the Brits ambushed Commandant Gideon Scheepers whom they executed after a military court found him guilty of war crimes - they actually had him sit on a chair next to a grave and then the firing squad shot him. Worthy of remembering these guys, (Local African people, Brits and Boers) who found themselves caught up in the first war of liberation against British imperialism. Their sacrifices and keeping their names and the history alive is so important. Then to bring matters more current, a visit to the Robert Sobukwe permanent exhibition is important to help understand the contribution of one of Graaf Reinet's most famous sons.

It is a beautiful little town. I was so impressed at how clean the streets are. We will be back and will stay at Cypress Cottage. I forgot to mention that we had a huge breakfast that was made in our cottage just for us.

Most of the historical buildings have been well maintained and painted white. The church is still in excellent condition.
Some modernisation taking place right now in the main street.
SANS parks nature reserve worth a visit with good dry, dirt roads. Valley of desolation view point very good with tarred road to the top followed by a short steep climb. Area can get very hot this time of year Feb 19th 43C.
This is a lovely little gem of a Guesthouse in Graaff-Reinet. My room was big and very comfy, it had everything I needed. The Hostess, Toni, is SO friendly and caring. She went beyond the call of duty- she kept contact with me and guided me with my trip from Bloemfontein. I received a hearty welcome from herself and the room was ready 2 hours before th the time for booking in. Breakfast was served in my room- what a spoil that was! Toni is a lovely person, inside and out... I would highly recommend this Guesthouse!
Most beautiful and relaxing stay. Beautiful cozy Karoo cottage. Very helpfull host just a whatsapp away. Friendliest cleaning lady came to greet us with freshly baked roosterkoek. Well done on this exstra final touch. 3 farm dogs came to say hallo everyday.
Wonderful clear sky for star gazing at night.
Enjoyed the cozy fire inside the cottage later in the evenings.
Will definitely book again. Hope to use the pool in warmer weather as our 2 days was not as hot to cool of.
I cannot rate my experience highly enough. I enjoyed two weeks of peace and tranquility while still able to get necessary work done thanks to reliable WiFi (except for periods of load-shedding). Plenty of different corners of the farm to explore on long walks and wonderful birdlife. Town is just a few minutes drive away. Provision made for lighting and cooking during load-shedding. Hosts of both the human and dog variety very friendly and welcoming.
The self catering unit we had at Country Village was spotlessly clean, and looked fresh and crisp. After a long trip it was a very refreshing place to walk into. Kitchen area was well equipped. No need here to worry about load-shedding as unit was equipped with a gas cooker and rechargeable LED lamps. Excellent value for money. Our host, Natasha was impressively hands-on and efficient!
This is a magical farm! Loved everything about the experience. From where the farm is located, to the friendly owners, Ansie & Johan. Just really enjoyed the peace, quiet & beautiful views. The star studded night sky was also quite breathtaking. Ansie & Johan have thought of all the details to make the accommodation very special and unique.
Everything was perfect!
Toni's Cottage is at a perfect location in Graaff-Reinet. You can easily walk to get dinner. Secure parking and friendly host. Toni will share some great spots to visit. Inside info is always golden at a new location.
This was our second time here so that says a lot. We stayed in a self catering unit this time which was very well equipped and comfortable. The bed was especially comfortable and I had a very good nights sleep.
Everything was fantastic, from the check-in to the room, the dining room, everything is excellent. Wifi is good. Operating through loadshedding. I will definitely stay here again when I am in Graaff-Reinet.
VS has a superb braai facility with everything you could possibly need in a nice lappa. Would highly recommend VC for any couple/family travelling through Graaff-Reinet with self catering needs in mind.
Attention to detail ...everything you need to feel at home from insect spray to microwave...the perfect self catering units ...beautiful flower garden and safe parking ...perfect 💖
The location was remote as we like it - off the tar track !!
