We had a comfortable stay, would definitely return; and recommend to friends.

We stayed for one night as we were attending an evening function in the area. We were welcomed by the host, who was most helpful in explaining the layout and where we could have breakfast the next morning if we wished. The room, Lily, was comfortable and we were happy to have a free-standing shower. We did return from our dinner out quite late, and our only complaint would be that the signage on the road is not easy to see in the dark so we missed the entrance and had to turn around.

Practical, clean and a view to die for.

Very nice place. We had a guest room and a self-catering place (booked late). Both were great. The veranda is a great spot for a sundowner. The restaurant is a bit of a letdown. Plenty to do for kids, but no alternative power when the power goes off. No other guests were eating there, which is never a great sign. It is not a classic wine farm restaurant.

Pragtige plek! Ons het baie lekker gebly. Baie lekker en rustige atmosfeer. Uitstekende diens gekry asook van die restaurant, ons aandete was sommer by ons kamer afgelewer. (Vir die prys kan julle miskien 'n klein ontbyt insluit.)

Pragtige plek. Baie gemaklik gebly.

Dis 'n pragtige plaas. Die kamers is ou perdestalle wat ontsaglik stylvol oorgedoen is in luukse kamers met al die behoeftes wat mens moontlik kan nodig kry.

It's a beautiful farm. The rooms are old horse stables that have been extremely stylishly converted into luxury rooms with all the necessities one could possibly need.

Baie rustig, mooi en lekker. Ons het dit vreeslik geniet.

Alles was heerlik en positief vandat ons daar aangekom het. So lekker geswem in die swembad met 'n uitsig oor die wynlande. Voorstelle - daar was nie 'n lang spieël in die eenheid nie en dis nie aan ons gekommunikeer dat die restaurant nie gaan oop wees die aand vir aand ete nie, dus moes ons dorp toe ry en 'n plek gaan soek.

Very peaceful, beautiful and nice. We really enjoyed it.

Everything was lovely and positive from the moment we got there. So nice swimming in the pool with a view over the wine fields. Suggestions - there wasn't a full length mirror in the unit and it wasn't communicated to us that the restaurant wasn't going to be open that night for dinner, so we had to drive into town and find a place.

Het troue op Wellington bygewoon en net slaap- en badplek gesoek.

Netjies, skoon en luuks en die personeel is baie behulpsaam. Pragtige omgewing en baie goed geleë. Sal beslis weer daar gaan draai om van die swembad gebruik te maak en sal die plek beslis aanbeveel. Baie rustig en stil.

Between vines and tranquility.

We booked the Guava Cottage for a short weekend getaway from the city. We were 4 adults and 1 child. The Guava Cottage is kitted beyond expectation. One can easily buy only a few groceries and feel right at home. It has a great outside braai, and a private pool with a lot of space to relax. The access to a honesty cellar was a great touch - an assortment of Dunstone wines to drink just in case you did not pack in (or packed enough). They even sponsored one; we payed for the rest. Although the restaurant was a stone's throw away, we never felt that it infringed on our privacy. Also, it was so convenient to pop over for a breakfast. Our child absolutely loved the play area! And as you walk on the property, there are goats, pigs and horses to entertain the inquisitive. We loved the fact that it was isolated within the valley. Great for the mountain biking enthusiast, or the grape connoisseur. Abbi's communications was amazing. Even though we did not meet in person, she was always a phone/email away. Thanks so much!

Dit is waarheen jy gaan om te "unwind" en rustig te wees.

Ons was in die Lavender room, pragtig skoon en werklik waarde vir jou geld. Ons familie was in die Guava Cottage en dit is werklik baie goeie waarde vir jou geld. Ek was werklik beïndruk met die ligging, natuurskoon en uitleg van die estate. Die personeel het uit hul pad gegaan vir ons gemak en om ons tuis te laat voel. Die kos was van baie hoë gehalte en ek sal definitief die verblyf aanbeveel aan 'n familie (die kothuis) of 'n egpaar wat net weer stil wil staan en asem haal. Dankie vir die aanbeveling.

This is where you go to unwind and relax.

We were in the Lavender Room, beautifully clean and truly value for money. Our family was in the Guava Cottage and that was good value for money too. I was really impressed with the location, scenery and layout of the estate. The staff went out of their way to ensure our comfort and to make us feel at home. The food was of outstanding quality and I would definitely recommend this accommodation to a family (the cottage) or couple who just want to take a break and get a breath of fresh air. Thank you for the recommendation.

Uitstekend.

Dunstone is baie goeie waarde vir geld. Die ontbyt is al klaar omtrent werd wat 'n mens vir alles betaal! Dit is ook die moeite werd om by die restaurant (Stone Kitchen) te gaan eet. Die kos is uitstekend en die pryse gelykstaande aan omtrent 10 jaar terug. Waar kry mens nog 'n bottle wyn vir R100? Dunstone is beslis tops.

Excellent.

Dunstone is great value for money. The delicious breakfast already makes it worth it! The restaurant, Stone Kitchen, is great. Divine food and so affordable it's like eating in a time capsule from 10 years ago. A bottle of wine for R100? Unbelievable! Dunstone is top notch.
