Baie mooi weggesteek!

Ons blyplek was op die deurstoep van die wynproe waar ons een van die beste Cab Sauv's in SA geproe het. Ons was omring met die pragtigste natuurskoon.

Very nicely hidden!

Our accommodation was on the doorstep of the wine tasting where we tasted one of the best Cab Sauv's in SA. We were surrounded by the most beautiful scenery.

Pragtige ligging.

Die hele plaas is werklik pragtig. Fuego-restaurant was fantasties en die kos was in oorvloed uniek en net uitmuntende ervaring. Daar is geen goedkoop opsies vir rooiwyn by Knorhoek nie, maar die wyn is goeie gehalte. Daar is lekker stapplek op die plaas en die personeel is vriendelik en behulpsaam. Rose cottage is pragtig, maar ek dink dis nogals duur as ek kyk wat mens betaal vir soortgelyke verblyf. Ons check-in was laat want vorige gaste het glo laat vertrek, maar hulle het ons sitplek en glas wyn aangebied.

Beautiful location.

The whole farm is truly beautiful. Fuego restaurant was fantastic and the food in abundance was unique and just outstanding experience. There are no cheap options for red wine at Knorhoek, but the wine is of good quality. There is a nice place to walk on the farm and the staff are friendly and helpful. Rose cottage is beautiful, but I think it's quite expensive when I look at what you pay for similar accommodation. Our check-in was late because previous guests apparently left late, but they offered us a seat and glass of wine.

Sielsrus op die plaas.

Knorhoek Guesthouse is found on the picturesque Knorhoek wine farm, which is also know for its beautiful Quinn Rock Venue and renowned fine dining experience at Gate restaurant. The staff at the guesthouse were friendly and professional and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Breakfast was great with an assortment of freshly baked breads, muffins and jams. Great farm experience with cows in the meadows and peacocks roaming by.

Heerlik afgesonder op 'n wynplaas.

Rose Cottage is op Knorhoek wynplaas en is volledig toegerus, selfs met 'n betaal yskassie vir plaaslike bier en wyn. Ontbyt is beskikbaar teen 'n prys maar daar is voldoende geriewe om jou eie te maak. Die restaurant is tans gesluit (dit was in elk geval in die verlede volgeboek vir privaat funksies), maar Delheim is om die draai - glo hulle is nog oop.

Wonderfully secluded on a wine farm.

Rose Cottage is on Knorhoek wine farm and is fully equipped, even with a small bar fridge for local beer and wine. Breakfast is available at a price but there are sufficient facilities to make your own. The restaurant is currently closed (it's been fully booked for private functions in the past anyway), but Delheim is around the corner - believe they're still open.

Heerlike oornag stop.

Fantastiese ligging en veilige omgewing. Kamer was gemaklik en naby om te stap na restaurant. Die restaurant se kombuis maak om 16:00 toe en ons kamer het nie selfsorggeriewe gehad nie. Ons moes in Stellenbosch iets gaan kry vir aandete wat nie 'n slegte uitstappie is nie. Ongelukkig kan die bestuurder dus nie Stellenbosch se wonderlike wyne tydens ete geniet nie.

Great overnight stop.

Great location and safe environment. Room was comfortable and close to walk to restaurant. The restaurant's kitchen closes at 16:00 and our room did not have self-catering facilities. We had to find something for dinner in Stellenbosch which is not a bad trip. Unfortunately, the driver cannot therefore enjoy Stellenbosch's wonderful wines during dinner.

Teleurstellend.

Ons was baie opgewonde om weer in die Lavender Cottage te bly. Daar was egter 'n gesin van 6 in die tweeslaap Rose Cottage langs ons ingeprop - om dit erger te maak het hulle nog twee worshonde ook gehad wat 'n tuin met ons moes deel. Ons het klein kindertjies, en die honde het vandat ons daar aangekom het heeltyd op ons afgestorm en so geblaf dat ons voel of ons ongenooid by 'n ander persoon se werf moet in. Dit was baie ongerieflik en sal maak dat dit ons laaste keer daar sal wees. Regtig onbedagsaam om soveel mense daar in te druk.

Disappointing.

We were very excited to stay in the Lavender Cottage again. However, there was a family of 6 crammed into the two bedroom Rose Cottage next to us - to make matters worse they also had two dachshunds who had to share a garden with us. We have small children, and since we got there, the dogs have been pouncing on us all the time and barking so much that we feel like we have to barge into another person's yard uninvited. It was very inconvenient and will make it our last time there. Really inconsiderate to squeeze so many people in there.

Nicely located spacious.

Our room was quite spacious seemed like a king-size bed, mobile reception is not that good but the WiFi was working really good to catch up on emails etc. I loved the big bathroom, and the temperature in the room was really cozy even though I didn't see a air conditioner or fan. There were a nice free flow of fresh air. The views was breathtaking and with the trees it looked like a forest Bavaria Germany. The breakfast was a nice selection of juices, cold cuts and cheeses as well as a hot breakfast but the best was the freshly baked homemade bread. Yummy!

Wonderful guest house.

We only stayed over 1 night, and did not spend much time there as we were going to a wedding. The room was beautiful, but there was a problem with the geyser and we had no hot water. The staff were marvellous, brought coffee to our room and allowed us to use the shower in another suite. The breakfast was excellent, thank you!

Ons het hier oornag toe ons 'n troue bywoon in die omgewing. Pragtige kamer met katoenlinne, groot badkamer, die kamer was netjies en prakties uitgelê. Die ontbyt was heerlik. Die diens was vriendelik en warm. Die hond binne in die eetkamer en binne vertrekke sou ek aanbeveel moet liefs buite bly.

Pragtige ligging, vriendelike mense.

Ons het 'n enkelnag-wegbreek by Knorhoek geniet en die ligging van die gastehuis het dit absoluut gemaak. Die mense was gasvry en ons kamer, alhoewel redelik klein, was voldoende. Dinge was 'n bietjie ongeorganiseerd by ontbyt en ons moes langer wag as wat ons wou, maar dit het nie die ervaring bederf nie.
