We spent another amazing weekend with Alan and Annabelle, who really are the best hosts imaginable. The rooms and garden are immaculately kept, the location is both safe and convenient, and breakfast was delicious. Above all though we loved our guided fly fishing trip to a stunning waterfall. Alan is so knowledgeable about fishing, but also about every other aspect of the natural world from trees to frogs and insects. He went out of his way to find birds for me including a rare forest buzzard and the narina trogon, which I've been searching for for years. I even caught my first ever trout!! All in all, we loved our time with Alan and Annabelle so much that the only way we could bring ourselves to leave was to book another trip for March. Thank you for an incredible weekend, we will see you soon!

This is a MUST stay in Somerset East. The accommodation facilities are more than expected and the owner and staff are super friendly. We did our own thing as self catering guests, when we needed anything they jumped to assist. Enjoyed Nickey the jackrussel visiting a lot.

I received a very warm and friendly welcome from Cheryl and Arthur. The staff members were also very friendly. Everything one needed was readily available. The property is well located within walking distance from Spar and restaurants, and yet comfortably quiet and peaceful. Security is also excellent. Would recommend anytime.

Beautiful Sanctuary in the Eastern Cape

Reviewed By jdamst119704

We had such a memorable stay at Gardiol Country House. An absolute haven of peace and tranquility with the noises of birds and owls and the occasional sheep bleeting. The family room was beautifully made up, perfectly clean and lots of attention to the detail. Absolutely nothing was lacking and the hosts are lovely, helpful and kind. We had a superb full breakfast in the main house at a beautifully laid table. Everything was just fantastic, we were sorry to have to leave after just 1 night. We will definitely be coming back on our next trip through the eastern cape.

We were a group of friends invited to spend the weekend at the oxwagon camp. If you like rustic with the experience of an authentic ox wagon then this will be an experience for you! The facilities are clean and well equipped and the farm itself is beautiful. Do yourself a favour and come and stay, we were a group of 19 people and had a fantastic time!!

That what was advertised, booked and paid for was not delivered. Instead taken to a "cottage" on another property. Called the actual guest house we are staying at and the rate is half of what we paid!

Reviewed By Nate K

My only regret is that I couldn't stay longer. Nice big room, excellent bed and stunning shower/bathroom. Management leave you to yourself, but if you need anything at all they are very keen to help. Security is great, I felt very safe the whole time, the views are gorgeous and I even had the opportunity to use the BBQ area, management pointed me in the right direction to get all the bits I needed food wise and I was not disappointed in the quality there either. I was there on a business trip, but I was so in love with the place I want to take my family there as soon as I can, it really is well suited for what ever your needs may be, business, family, romantic breaks etc etc I would highly recommend Villa Maria.
