Aanhuizen maak Swellendam 'n beter plek.

Aanhuizen gastehuis is 'n pragtige plek. Ons familie het elke oomblik geniet. Ons was baie goed ontvang en ons was ook baie bederf deur die huiseienaar en sy vrou. Ons sal beslis weer Aanhuizen besoek. 10/10.

Vir beskostigbare verblyf is dit ideaal en goed geleë, maar nie vir lang verblyf nie. Net die nodige items beskikbaar. Sal aanbeveel om dienste beskikbaar te maak tydens beurtkrag.

Great stay but a bit short to give comprehensive feedback.

We had a great stay and the apartment (No 6) was spacious with all the necessary stuff needed for a self-catering unit. Well done. A suggestion is that they have a file with all the attractions of the town as well as the restaurants in a file in the flat for easy access. Maybe a better system to return the key at the end of your stay. A box where the key can be dropped in and also for the gate to open by itself when you're inside the property and want to leave. Other than that, a great place.

Aanhuizen Guest House 's response

Hi Trevor. Thank you for your review. Indeed, it would be more convenient if the gate opens automatically upon exit, but the associated costs are quite high. We are currently waiting for a metal box to store the keys. I wish you all the best for the year.

Not the best accommodation I've stayed in.

Luckily we only stayed 1 night. Not very neat. Cobwebs in bathroom. Pool area not tidy either. The photo on the web at home looks like what the room looks like, but the room is now very old and dark.

Baie welkom laat voel en sommer deel van die familie. Hulle het vir ons 'n beter kamer gegee a.g.v. hulle aanbou/verandering van hulle verblyf.

Baie vriendelike mense en sommer ons genooi om saam met hulle die rugby te kyk. Alles wat ons nodig gehad het, was beskikbaar.

Uitstekende diens en gasvryheid. Voel sommer dadelik tuis.

Tom en sy mense het ons dadelik baie tuis laat voel. Kon dadelik lekker gesels met hulle. Tom het ons ingewag toe ons 10 uur die aand daar gekom het van ons afspraak. Dit was middel in load shedding, maar hy het gesorg dat ons genoegsame lig in ons eenheid gehad het. Hulle diens was puik. As ons weer daardie kant toe iewers gaan en verblyf nodig sou hê, sal ek definitief weer by hulle bespreek.

Excellent service and hospitality. Feel at home right away.

Tom and his people immediately made us feel very much at home. Was able to chat with them immediately. Tom was waiting for us when we got there from our appointment at 10 o'clock in the evening. It was middle in load shedding, but he made sure we had enough light in our unit. Their service was great. If we go somewhere that way again and need accommodation, I will definitely book with them again.

Pragtige, skoon plekkie.

Ons het met ons kleinkind gereis en is hartlik verwelkom deur Tom. Hy het ons gou tuis laat voel en self 'n kampbedjie vir die kleintjie voorsien. Die plek was rêrig baie mooi ingerig, en die badkamer was ruim en baie skoon. Die lekker koppie koffie en tuisgemaakte beskuit was 'n heerlike verwelkoming. Ruim voorsiening is vir die "loadshedding" gemaak. Ons het baie rustig en veilig gevoel en 'n mooi uitsig op die berge gehad.

We traveled with our grandchild and were warmly welcomed by Tom. He quickly made us feel at home and even provided a camp bed for the little one.

Ample provision has been made for the "loadshedding". We felt very peaceful and safe and had a nice view of the mountains.

Typical budget type overnight stay. Host was accommodating for late night arrival.

However, what turned me off ever going back there were the berries falling on the roof with a thud, the whole night long. I eventually opted for earplugs to try and get some rest. My daughter said she hardly slept as this woke her up throughout the night.

The room was nice, but part of a cluster of adjacent rooms. A noisy crowd moved in and spoiled our visit completely. Not as advertised. This could be a sleepover if you use earplugs but definitely not a holiday destination!

Oorslaap op pad Kaap toe.

Ons het een aand oorgeslaap by Aanhuizen, maar kon maklik langer gebly het. Dis 'n pragtige perseel teen die berg met verskillende groottes kamers. Dit was skoon, netjies en baie goed toegerus om ons 'n lekker stort of bad en 'n goeie nagrus te kon bied. Olwyn het spesiaal vir ons gewag toe ons later as die inkloktyd gearriveer het en was so vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ons sal beslis weer by Aanhuizen tuisgaan, dit was 'n baie aangename ervaring.

Overnight on the way to the Cape.

We stayed one night at Aanhuizen, but could easily have stayed longer. It's a beautiful site on the mountain with different sized rooms. It was clean, tidy and very well equipped to offer us a nice shower or bath and a good night's rest. Olwyn specially waited for us when we arrived later than the check-in time and was so friendly and helpful. We will definitely stay at Aanhuizen again, it was a very pleasant experience.

Definitief sal ons graag weer hier wil bly!

Ons het 'n gesinskamer bespreek omdat my ma van 85 saam gereis het. Ek het gebel om uit te vind of ons die betrokke Saterdag dalk voor 14:00 kan kom en ons is meegedeel dat ons enige tyd van 11:00 kan kom en ook omdat my ma die derde persoon is en nie 'n jongmens nie sal die eienaar ons skuif na aparte kamers. Ons was so verras en dit was wonderlik veral omdat die gastehuis nie leeg was nie.

We booked a family room as my 85 year old mother was traveling with us. I called to find out if we could come before 14:00 on the Saturday in question and we were told that we could come anytime from 11:00 and also because my mother is the third person and not a young person the owner move us to separate rooms. We were so surprised and it was great especially because the guest house was not empty.

Vir die prys is dit seker OK.

Met ons aankoms moes ons bel vir iemand om die hek oop te maak. Op die einde van die dag het my vrou maar self die hek oopgemaak. Die stort was glad nie vir my aangenaam nie, want jy het of verbrand of gevrek van die koue. Die kouewaterkraan was foutief, wat beteken niemand het dit gecheck voor die gaste ingeboek het nie. Die eienaar het toe geoffer om in die kamer langsaan te gaan stort. Gevoel of ons kamp met ons sakkie op pad na die ablusie. Die matras is sleg, geen ander woord daarvoor nie. Die kamer was skoon.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

For the price it's probably OK.

When we arrived we had to call for someone to open the gate. At the end of the day, my wife opened the gate herself. The shower was not pleasant for me at all, because you either burned or died from the cold. The cold water faucet was faulty, which means no one checked it before the guests checked in. The owner then sacrificed to take a shower in the next room. Feeling like we are camping with our bag on the way to the ablution. The mattress is bad, no other word for it. The room was clean.

Rustig en stil.

Ek moes in Swellendam wees vir besigheid en besluit toe om 'n naweek daarvan te maak. Dit was ons tweede besoek in twee maande en die gejaag tussen Kaapstad en Swellendam was te erg. Ons was in kamer 2, lekker groot en ons het nie oor mekaar se voete geval nie. Tom was 'n lekker geselsmaat as my vrou my op parool uitgelaat het, en ons het daar en dan besluit dat dit ons tweede huis gaan word. Weens ons besigheid sal ons nog tien jaar daar werksaam wees.

I had to be in Swellendam for business and decided to make a weekend of it. It was our second visit in two months and the rush between Cape Town and Swellendam was too bad. We were in room 2, nice and big and we didn't fall over each other's feet. Tom was a nice companion when my wife let me out on parole, and we decided then and there that it was going to be our second home. Because of our business, we will be operating there for another ten years.

Well appointed and comfortable room, but felt there were too many units in a small space.

We really loved the room itself but not its location. The parking lot was right outside and other guests had to walk by our room to get to the reception etc. which made it very noisy.

Unfortunately, the room is situated at the bottom. We are looking at ways to make it more private by using screens and redirecting the entrance to the other rooms. Just waiting for a break in May to do alterations.

Die verblyf was gerieflik.

Die kamer was skoon en netjies. Die badkamer se asblikkie was ongelukkig nie leeggemaak voor ons ingekom het nie. Ek sou ook aanbeveel dat daar 'n haardroeër in die kamer moet wees. Dak waaier het ook nie gewerk nie maar gasheer het opgemaak met 'n staanwaaier. Ek sou ook graag 'n badkamermatjie wou hê waarop ek kon trap as jy uit die stort klim. Verder was als goed.

This was the second time that we stayed here and were so happy to be back. The room was beautiful and cool with a stunning view for the mountains. The breakfast was really good. Thanks for being such an awesome host. We will be back again.

Hi Wendie. Thanks for the rating.
Regarding the outside area - we are in the process of building a lapa and repainting the areas.
With rain, winds - destroying facia boards - and guest it is not going as quickly as planned. We should be finished by end October.

Rustige en veilige omgewing met vriendelike diens.

Ons het baie lekker gebly. Wil net die volgende onder aandag bring: In eenheid 5 is die stortkraan los en val af. Die wasbak se koue kraan werk nie reg nie en hangers in die hangkas sal welkom wees.

We really had a nice stay. Just wanted to let you know: The shower tap in number 5 is loose. The basin's cold water tap didn't work and we would have liked hangers in the cupboards.

Very few guest houses and B&B have any security fencing around them. Hopefully it will stay this way.

Heerlike atmosfeer met great ontbyt!

Baie lekker oornagplek. Dis mooi skoon en stil. Die uitsig oor die berg vanaf die voorstoep is pragtig. Die stortkop raas bietjie, maar oor die algemeen is dit 'n goeie halfpadstop tussen George en die Kaap! Baie lekker ontbyt en baie vriendelike diens!

Dankie vir die terugvoering. Ons waardeer alle advies sowel as opbouende kritiek.
Ons het wel stortseep in die storte, en handseep by wasbak. Ons het wel seep beskikbaar by ontvangs, jammer dat dit nagelaat is om aan julle te noem.
Wat die ontvangs van die TV aanbetref het Swellendam probleme met die SABC 1,2,3 en E-TV toring met al die reën. Hulle is besig om aan dit te werk - maar gaan al vir jaar so aan.

Fantastic host, excellent breakfast, good rooms in beautiful town.

Very good rooms. The host loves what he does and knows the area. He gave us very good advice, even ordered us a take away dinner, advised on the best wine cellars to go and was very helpful in every way. To make the stay even better, the owner may want to consider placing a small fridge in each room. That is all we missed! The roosterkoek and moskonfyt were winners at the breakfast table.
