Special experience.
It was a lovely getaway. Thank you so much, Lizette, for your hospitality and kindness. It might be time to upgrade the master bedroom bed, but other than that it was absolutely fantastic. The old house has many stories to tell. We would like to bring the children/family with us next time.

Hello Riska. Baie, baie dankie vir jou positiewe terugvoering.
So bly as iemand aanvoel wat ons daar met hierdie ou Kothuisie wat uit 1833 dateer, probeer uitbeeld!
Die antieke ysterkateltjies word van tyd tot tyd 'opgewen' (stywer getrek)! Dankie dat jy my daaraan herinner.
Kom kuier gerus weer.
Groete. Lizette

Sal nie weer daar gaan bly nie en sal ook nie iemand aanbeveel nie. Tani was darem vriendelik.

Will not stay there again and will not recommend to anyone. At least Tani was friendly.
It was okay. The price is ridiculous for the small place, but Tani did return some of our money when we wanted to cancel. There is no self catering as advertised. The TV is old and very small, and the DStv remote control does not work. There is also no fan, and it was terribly hot in that small place which also smelled of mustiness.

Goeienaand Christo, so jammer dat Bokapie Annexe ongelukkig nie aan julle verwagting voldoen het nie. Julle was teleurgesteld dat dit nie 'n selfsorgeenheid was nie.
Geliewe daarop te let dat dit geadverteer word as 'n slaapkamer met badkamer en suite maar daar is wel 'n mikrogolf oond, yskas, tee en koffie geriewe in die kamer. (TV en Internet ontvangs ook beskikbaar.)
Aangesien dit Kerstyd was het Tannie Lizette sommer gedink dat die R400 dalk bietjie sal bydra tot 'n lekker aandete by een van Swellendam se vele lekker eetplekke!

Ideal place to spend the night and explore Swellendam or use as a traveler or business.
Shower door's fixed panel lets water through into the frame. One wooden gate hangs slightly lower than the other, as a result of which it is a little difficult to open and close the gate. The driving surface of Bo-Kapie erf is approximately 10 cm lower than the road surface, as a result an inexperienced driver will struggle to push back in reverse in the narrow one-way side street and at the same time turn into the gate. Despite the above mentioned "fixes" that can be done, I would stay at Bo-Kapie again anytime. Quiet peaceful environment with little movement.

Very disappointed.
A single garage that has been converted into a cramped space. The bed creaks and makes noise and a new bed is recommended. The small fridge is noisy and also a new one would help I was instructed to turn it off during loadshedding, no stove or any other facilities except a plastic dish to wash your dirty dishes in. Primitive over. Gave up one night and lost the money and booked in another place instead.

Hallo Nico, dankie vir goeie terugvoering. Ek is so bly julle het lekker gebly.
Jammer ons kon nie die nuwe TV stel met al sy DStv programme aangeskakel kry nie. Gelukkig was my bestuurderes 20:00 nog wakker en kon sy telefonies gou verduidelik hoe om dit te doen.
Kom kuier gerus weer. Groete

Beautiful 1833 house, lovely fireplace, wonderful atmosphere.
Thanks to Lizette for the beautiful flowers upon our arrival and for the delicious biscuits. The house is beautifully clean with plenty of towels and blankets for the cold nights. The fireplace works very well and thanks for the firewood to keep us warm. The charm of the house, built in 1833, has been preserved throughout and gives the house a unique character. Thank you very much for your prompt and friendly service. With 5 adults and 1 child there was plenty of space and sleeping space for everyone. The soft toy on the bed was an extra touch of fun. We can definitely recommend Bo-Kapie.
