Beautiful rest in the country side
Very beautiful place with very welcoming owners. This break at the end of the working day was very relaxing. For Europeans not used to loadshedding, bring mosquito repellent to protect yourself from their arrival when the fan stops! This will not stop me from coming back each time I will visit Paarl. I will then also be able to dine at the restaurant, which I have heard so much about.

great stay BUT could be cleaner.
Margret, our host - was great. Super friendly and helpful. Overall, however - the place is visibly old and is in need of general cleaning (the inside of the room's toilet bowl was terribly stained) and just tidying.

Lovely,peaceful stay with friendly people
Lovely farm with horses, alpacas, geese, dogs and an ostrich. Great food at the restaurant. Breakfast good. Only hassle in our room was that it was a little noisy when there was a family with kids next door. Pool was very welcome, as it gets very hot in Wellington during Summer and Autumn.
