Ancient peace.
From the moment we walked in to the time we left, it was one big party. We were received kindly, as if we were family, the history of the house is so special. With the high ceilings and copper beds, it was a treat for our tired bodies. Breakfast in the dining room with its original furniture was perfect. Bruce and his wife, the children and even the dogs, everyone made us feel at home. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience.

The host received us kindly and early the next morning when we hit the road to Pretoria, he was there again. Thank you for your beautiful place to stay. Would highly recommend it. He also gave us a bigger place. Appreciate!

The old mansion of more than a 100 years old is something to see! Bruce is a friendly and pleasant host who enjoys talking and telling about the origin of the house. The porch overlooks a beautiful large garden. In the evening, with the sun setting, we had a barbecue on the porch. The breakfast in the large dining room is the perfect start to a day at Aliwal North. The tranquility of the place brings a unique experience.

Beautiful old house, very quiet in the evening and nice and quiet. The interior is a bit dated, mattresses and linen are a bit old. No bottles of water, milk or WiFi in the rooms, so just stop at a shop ahead of time if you want to make tea or coffee in the morning. Also make sure you book one of the en suite rooms unless you want to walk down the hall with your dressing gown and vanity case like in a hostel.

The building and decor is a real trip back in time.
We booked the family room for our stay on the 29th December and the rooms were large with comfortable beds. The garden and pond was a great delight and the only reason I haven't moved to another guest house is because my son is a keen catch and release fisherman and he saw big fish in the pond. The guest rooms' furniture does justice to its century-old origins, but all other areas definitely need maintenance. The quality of the modern shower, sink, toilet and built-in melamine cabinets in the old bathroom also strongly undermines the character and old-fashioned furniture. There was also no place to unpack our clothes as all the cupboards in the rooms were locked with notes that they may not be used. On our arrival there was unfortunately a mattress on the floor from previous guests which was still there when we left the next day. Our country is currently experiencing a heat wave and the fans were welcome but totally inadequate. To top it all off, there was no small fridge in either of the 2 rooms and we were forced to ask that at least our water, butter and ice packs could be kept in the hostess's fridge. Since the guest house does not offer dinners or other light meals (even on request), we had to eat takeaway meals as all other places to eat in town were closed. This guest house really has so much potential and we were sorry to see that the place seems to be going downhill.

Upon arrival, we looked at the setup very skeptically and wondered if we had made the right decision to sleep there. Back of building looked more like a building from a Dracula movie. However, once we saw the front, inside and our room it was a different view. The stay was pleasant, people very friendly and the breakfast delicious. The house on the inside from the classical era of heavy wooden venters, door frames and furniture. Something you don't see everyday anymore.

Wonderful old house and beautiful garden, but no security to speak of.
See the stars.

A lovely experience.
It was a lovely, old worldly experience, with all the glory you'd expect from it. The house and furniture have been looked after with such care. The history of the place is remembered and relayed with love and appreciation by the original family. It truly was an honour that the family were willing to share these precious stories with guests. The time just went by too fast. Thank you very much and thank you to LekkeSlaap for excellent service rendered.

Unkempt.
We arrived when it was bitterly cold. Chopped wood lay by the gate and we made a fire in the hearth. We were then told that no fires were allowed in the rooms, but they had fireplaces! There were 2 rooms and we were 3 guests. The main bedroom was decorated with dusty and skew family portraits. The other room had 2 iron beds from the concentration camps. I looked for more blankets in the cupboard and discovered a bric-a-brac shop full of many blankets and things. I was told that there was no water available, but as soon as it was available they would put on the geyser. We went to go eat and was away for 2 to 3 hours. When we got back nothing had been done about the hot water situation and I want to know why the problem wasn't sorted out when wer were gone. The hostess suggested that we find different accommodation. We already paid though and wrote it off as a terrible experience. The morning we were told that the geyser was broken. We had to use a kettle to get hot water so we could wash. The house is falling apart and has terrible cracks and it desperately needs a good dusting. As you drive there you see the untidiness of the place with the camper under a tree. It is clear that this place needs to be renovated and that the owners cannot keep it in a good condition. They should not be letting it to guests.

Lovely view of the river.
Lovely, quiet place away from the noise of the town. Close to the main route. Spacious rooms. Antique feel with its dark wood furniture. Spacious green lawn for relaxing after a long drive.
