Vyfster verblyf in die mooiste omgewing.

Die plek is uit die boeke! Ons het twee dubbelkamers beset en het die hele gastehuis tot ons beskikking gehad. Die kaggelvuur in die sitkamer het tot laat aand gebrand. Maria het ons baie mooi gehelp en baie tuis laat voel. Die ontbyte by Eight Feet was eersteklas.

Five star accommodation in the most beautiful surroundings.

The place is off the books! We occupied two double rooms and had the entire guest house at our disposal. The fireplace in the living room burned late into the evening. Maria helped us very nicely and made us feel very much at home. The breakfasts at Eight Feet were first class.

Heerlik en sal weer daar wil kuier.

Wat die gastehuis instand hou, het ons baie spesiaal laat voel. Sy verdien tien uit tien. 'n Aanwins vir Kloovenberg.

Ons kom weer!

Wat 'n wonderlike gastehuis! Wenen is 'n baie oulike gasvrou. Ons het in een van die stoepkamers gebly en het 'n deur gehad wat op die stoep oopmaak met pragtige uitsigte oor die dorp en berge. Daar is ook 'n heerlike swembad. Daar is nie ontbyt nie, maar 'n etebewys word voorsien sodat mens by 8 Feet in die pas net buite die dorp kan ontbyt eet. Ons het heerlik gebly.

We come again!

What a wonderful guest house! Vienna is a very nice hostess. We stayed in one of the porch rooms and had a door that opened onto the porch with beautiful views of the town and mountains. There is also a lovely swimming pool. There is no breakfast, but a meal voucher is provided so that you can have breakfast at 8 Feet in the pass just outside the town. We had a wonderful stay.

Fantastic stay.

We had a great stay at Kloovenburg. We took the whole lodge for the weekend with a bunch of friends. It was an extremely hot weekend, so the pool was very well used. Everything worked perfectly, the service was amazing, and the rooms were comfortable. Thank you for a great stay. The free breakfast at the restaurant was the cherry on the top.

We will not return to this accommodation.

We thought that the standard had deteriorated since we were there in 2022. Minimal toiletries, very little supply of milk, coffee and tea. Only enough for one cup each. Rusks of poor quality. No DStv. We did not want to drive out of the village for breakfast. No atmosphere, so big and impersonal. Very limited breakfast and type of coffee. We had to pay extra for our coffee. In the past, we had an excellent breakfast in the heart of the town with a good atmosphere of the buzz of solo studio.

Asemrowend en onbeskryflik rustig en lekker!

Ons het ongelooflik lekker gebly. Die tuine is pragtig en met die vlae reën wat op die sinkdak geval het terwyl ons op die stoep gesit en koffie drink het, was dit waarlik kos vir die siel. Ons het ontspan soos koninklikes.10 uit 10 vir Maria wat baie vriendelik is, en die gastehuis mooi skoon en netjies hou dat mens sou dink sy is die eienares van die gastehuis. Sy is duidelik baie trots op haar werk. Definitief een van die Top 3 plekke waar ons al gebly het, en weer sal gaan bly. Definitief aan te beveel!

Breathtaking and indescribably peaceful and delicious!

We had an incredibly nice stay. The gardens are beautiful and with the showers of rain falling on the tin roof while we sat on the veranda drinking coffee, it was truly food for the soul. We relaxed like royalty. 10 out of 10 for Maria who is very friendly, and keeps the guest house so clean and tidy that one would think she is the owner of the guest house. She is clearly very proud of her work. Definitely one of the Top 3 places we have stayed, and will stay again. Definitely recommend!

Very pleasant "home from home" experience and massage.

Wenen, our host, is one in a million and she made us feel really special. The room was comfortable and clean. It had all that we needed including the use of a shared kitchen. The location is beautiful and quiet. As an extra to our stay, we had full-body Swedish massages which were absolutely great. Well done to our masseuse.

Rustige, eg Kaapse verblyf.

Kloovenburg Guesthouse het ons so welkom laat voel. Met aankoms het hulle vir ons een van hulle bottels wyn aangebied as 'n welkom geskenk. Die uitsig is baie moeilik om in woorde om te sit. Maar jy kyk uit oor die hele gebied met die kerk hier voor jou en die berge in die agtergrond. Baie rustige area. Ontvangsdame het uit haar pad gegaan om ons bietjie vroëer in te laat om klaar te maak vir ons funksie. Baie goeie ervaring.

Peaceful, genuine Cape accommodation.

Kloovenburg Guesthouse made us feel so welcome. On arrival they offered us one of their bottles of wine as a welcome gift. The view is very difficult to put into words. But you look out over the whole area with the church here in front of you and the mountains in the background. Very quiet area. Receptionist went out of her way to let us in a little early to get ready for our function. Very good experience.

Guest house is beautiful. Centrally located. Maria was great. We arrived late, the fire was burning. Room was perfect. Large bed, crispy clean linen. Great shower - large, good pressure and hot. Wooden suspended floors are noisy, as they always are, but we were the only guests, so no issue.

We had a lovely stay.

The house is decorated beautifully however it is extremely cold inside. We built a fire in the dining room as there were no other fireplaces — it didn't really warm up the dining room, the rooms were freezing — no underfloor heating but the beds had electric blankets. The breakfast wasn't great either. Outside-only venue and it was very windy and cold. I think it would be stunning in the summertime.

Hello Pam, dankie vir die boodskappie, bly jul het lekker gebly, behalwe die koue wat ons altyd onderkry.

Regtig 'n plek om aantebeveel, baie rusdtig en ideaal vir 'n troue, reis of net vakansie. Die kamers is groot en het alles. Mooi badkamers en alles werk. Die 8 feet restaurant is 'n moet, en ontbyt was uitstekend. Die plek is vyfster.

Ons was gelukkig genoeg om die gastehuis vir onsself te hê. Ons het die dubbelkamer gehad en dit het alles gehad wat ons nodig het, en nog 'n paar ekstras! Ons het die komplimentêre bottel wyn, ontbyt en beskuit baie geniet. Ons sal vir seker weer gaan.

Kloovenburg Gastehuis is 'n pragtige gebou. Van die oorspronkilike deure, vensters en vloere is behou wat dit spesiaal maak. Die ligging is puik en die tuine rondom die gastehuis is pragtig.

Lieflike naweek weg.

Ons het heerlik gebly by Kloovenburg Gastehuis, die huis is baie goed toegerus en die dekor is pragtig, vroeg oggend uitsig vanaf die stoep was baie outspanned. Ontbyt by Kringe in die Bos (Kloovenburg wyn en olyfplaas) was ook baie lekker, pragtige "venue". Ons kan dit definitief aanbeveel en sal beslis terugkeer.
