Heerlike verblyf in pragtige omgewing!

Was werklik verras met die outentieke gastehuis met die mooiste antieke meubels wat die geskiedenis gestand doen. Sou graag langer wou bly en Swellendam verken, sal definitief weer kom. Lizette was 'n wonderlike gasvrou en het soveel moeite gedoen ten spyte van haar hoë ouderdom, vars blommetjies uit die tuin en alles skoon en netjies.

Great stay in beautiful surroundings!

Was really surprised with the authentic guest house with the most beautiful antique furniture that lives up to the history. Would love to stay longer and explore Swellendam, will definitely come again. Lizette was a wonderful hostess and made so much effort despite her old age, fresh flowers from the garden and everything clean and tidy.

Relaxing! I would definitely go there again.

My stay was lovely. The old house is beautiful. The gardens are absolutely stunning! Lizette was lovely, explained the alarm system etc. She even waited for me to come back after my business was completed, so that she could explain the alarm system - I had arrived later than expected and had to rush out for my appointment. I would definitely go back.

Ons het 2 nagte oorgebly.

Ons gasvrou en haar kat was baie vriendelik. Die huis en tuin was prentjiemooi. Ons het dit geniet om van die eiendom te leer. Die kamer was netjies en gemaklik. Die verblyf het alles wat ons nodig gehad het. Die verblyf is slegs 'n paar 100m weg van 2 restaurante, so etes was nie ver weg nie.

Hierdie huis is pragtig! Oudhede en nostalgie. Mooi en ingerigte kamers. 'n Mens voel teruggevoer na 'n vorige era wanneer 'n mens hier slaap. Ons gasvrou het ons ook vriendelik ontvang en baie mooi gehelp. Ek sal enige tyd weer hier kom bly as ons volgende keer na Swellendam reis!

Huislik, warm en sommer tuis gevoel.

Wat 'n aangename verrassing! Die selfsorg eenheid was ten volle toegerus en kon ons met gemak ons familie daar ontmoet. Ons sal in die toekoms weer daar met 'n geruste hart tuisgaan. Die eenheid was skoon, netjies en ruim. Ongelukkig was die WiFi-sein baie swak, maar het ons dit nie eens nodig gehad nie.

Beautiful house and garden. Perfect location in town.

We had a bit of a glitch with the check-in process initially as we couldn't contact the host for access, but it was resolved within an hour. Our pleasant stay at Moolmanshof more than made up for it afterwards. Lizette and Estelle's hospitality is excellent, and the house is beautiful and very comfortable. The garden is absolutely lovely. We and our friends had the whole old house to ourselves and really enjoyed it. Will come again.

Rus, geskiedenis, en vars blomme in die kamers.

Die atmosfeer by Moolmanshof is een van rustigheid. Die huis is uitgelê vir gerief maar behou die gevoel van die geskiedenis in talle aspekte. Die kamers laat jou voel asof jy in 'n sprokie ingeloop het, maar met die moderne vreugdes van koffie en WiFi. Die gedeelde kombuis is wel toegerus en bied jou die geleentheid om 'n maaltyd voor te berei wat jy in die tuin of eetkamer kan geniet. Werklikwaar 'n juweel in Swellendam!

Rest, history, and fresh flowers in the rooms.

The atmosphere at Moolmanshof is one of tranquility. The house is laid out for comfort but retains the sense of history in many aspects. The rooms make you feel like you've walked into a fairy tale, but with the modern joys of coffee and WiFi. The shared kitchen is well equipped and offers you the opportunity to prepare a meal that you can enjoy in the garden or dining room. Truly a gem in Swellendam!

Baie mooi plek om te bly. Nostalgie van die verlede.

Moolmanshof is van die oudste geboue in Swellendam. Baie mooi gerestoreer deur Lizette, die eienaar. Ons word met elke besoek persoonlik verwelkom en moet daar eers gesels word! Die ligging is perfek, die mooi groot tuin is heerlik om in te loop. Heerlik koel in die somer onder eeu oue akkerbome.

Moolmanshof is one of the oldest buildings in Swellendam. Very nicely restored by Lizette, the owner. We are welcomed personally with each visit and must be talked to first!

Wegbreek met gemak en styl.

Ons het heerlik gebly. Alles wat ons nodig gehad het was beskikbaar en die eienaar net 'n oproep ver. Die geskiedenis van die huis en die omgewing was 'n belewenis. Ons het verskeie beurtkragperiodes beleef en sou net graag meer lig waardeer, veral buite waar die voertuie geparkeer was. Ten spyte van die donker twee ure per nag, het ons geensins onveilig gevoel nie. Ons sal beslis weer daar gaan oorbly.

We had a wonderful stay. Everything we needed was available and the owner just a phone call away. The history of the house and the surroundings was an experience. We experienced several load shedding periods and would have appreciated more light, especially outside where the vehicles were parked. Despite the two hours of darkness per night, we did not feel unsafe in any way. We will definitely stay there again.

Onaangenaam.

Nie die eenheid wat ek bespreek het met bad in gekry nie. Gevoel of ons in agterlike buitekamer slaap. Baie muf, afvoerpype oral stukkend en water loop voor deure. Braaiplek was nie skoongemaak nie. Instandhouding en opknapping kort baie aandag.

Unpleasant.

Didn't get the unit I booked with bath in it. Felt like we were sleeping in back room. Very mouldy, drainpipes broken everywhere and water running in front of doors. Braai place was not cleaned. Maintenance and renovation needs a lot of attention.

'n Wonderlike, geskiedkundige en outentieke gastehuis, uitstekend gemeubileerd en wat voldoen aan die verwagtinge om teruggeneem te word na die verlede.

Hierdie uitstekende gerestoureerde huis bied 'n besondere voorbeeld van ons geskiedenis en om die atmosfeer eerstehands te kon ondervind en beleef sal ons altyd bybly. Omdat die gebou so oud is, het dit heelwat onderhoud nodig om op standaard te wees. Die die badkamer van die slaapkamer links van die ingang is nie op standaard nie (klein, geen kassies en hakke). 'n Elektriese waaier kan gerus toegevoeg word om die middag- en aand-hitte te sirkuleer.

Translate to English.

A wonderful, historic and authentic guest house, excellently furnished and living up to the expectations of being taken back to the past.

This excellent restored house offers a special example of our history and to be able to experience and experience the atmosphere first hand will always stay with us. Because the building is so old, it needs a lot of maintenance to be up to standard. The bathroom of the bedroom to the left of the entrance is not up to standard (small, no cabinets and heels). An electric fan can easily be added to circulate the afternoon and evening heat.

Hello Henk.
Bly u het waardering vir die outentiekheid van Moolmanshof!
Die draagbare elektriese waaier is agter die oorhoekse hangkas versteek!
Stortbadkamer ook klein omdat dit onder die buitetrap gebou moes word ten einde nie die raar egtheid van die H-vormigheid van die Kaaps Hollandse ou huis te verstoor nie. Die huis is nog 'n
'n klassieke voorbeeld daarvan. Ek het dit al oorweeg om 'n vrystaande bad in die kamer te laat installeer.
Groete.

Gemaklike oornagverblyf as al die slotte op die deure jou nie pla nie.

Ek was nie baie teleurgestel oor die kamers nie, want ek het vooraf 'n resensie gelees wat gewaarsku het dat die Stables eenhede nie soos die foto's op die webtuiste lyk, wat almal net die hoofhuis wys. Die Stables kamers is goed genoeg, maar sal teleurstellend wees as mens iets anders verwag. Dit sal 'n goeie idee wees om foto's op die webtuiste te plaas. Maar ons was baie teleurgestel omdat ek spesifiek 'n boodskap gestuur het om te sê ek soek verblyf en een van ons is in 'n rolstoel, en ek het 'n antwoord ontvang wat daarop gedui het dat ons geakkommodeer sal kan word met 'n rolstoel. Die eenhede was hoegenaamd nie rolstoel-vriendelik nie (en ons is gewoond aan bietjie ongemak, met so paar trappies of so). Dis dan nou juis hoekom ek die boodskap gestuur het voordat ek bespreek het! Dit is baie onprofessioneel.

Comfortable overnight stay if all the locks on the doors don't bother you.

I wasn't too disappointed with the rooms as I had read a review beforehand which warned that the Stables units did not look like the photos on the website, all of which only show the main house. The Stables rooms are good enough, but will be disappointing if you expect anything else. It would be a good idea to post photos on the website. But we were very disappointed because I specifically messaged to say I was looking for accommodation and one of us is in a wheelchair, and I received a reply indicating that we would be able to be accommodated with a wheelchair . The units were not wheelchair friendly at all (and we are used to some discomfort, with a few steps or so). That's why I sent the message before booking! This is very unprofessional.

Oornag op pad na Jeffreysbaai.

Baie welkom gevoel met Lynette wat uit haar pad gegaan het om ons welkom te heet. Lekker geswem in die swembad op die perseel. Dit ook geniet dat ons tienderjariges hulle eie kamer gehad het langs ons sin. Die geriewe in die kamers is voortreflik. Dit was heerlik om nie 'n probleem met die WiFi-stelsel te hê nie, die sein was baie sterk.

Overnight en route to Jeffreys Bay.

Felt very welcome with Lynette who went out of her way to welcome us. Nice swimming in the pool on the premises. We also enjoyed that our ten-year-olds had their own room next to us. The facilities in the rooms are excellent. It was great not having a problem with the WiFi system, the signal was very strong.

Heerlik rustig en gerieflik met baie vriendelike personeel.

Pragtige ou huis, mooi ingerig met vars blomme en daar word ag geslaan op detail. Vir die prys sou ek verwag dat die kamer gediens word, en dat hulle die asblikkie uitgooi, beddens opmaak en handdoeke droog en netjies terughang.

Wonderfully peaceful and comfortable with very friendly staff.

Beautiful old house, nicely decorated with fresh flowers and attention to detail. For the price I would expect the room to be serviced, and for them to take out the trash, make beds and hang towels back dry and tidy.

Nie waarde vir geld.

Die hoofgebou en kamers is baie mooi en word in die bemarking gebruik. Ons het egter in buitegeboue geslaap met ons twee volwasse dogters. Hulle moes deur ons eenheid na buite loop deur digbegroeide plante omdat hul eenheid nie 'n buitedeur het nie. Boonop het die gesin langsaan reg teen my kinders se kombuis se venster op hul stoep gesit. Die toiletpapier was onvoldoende en daar is geen hek wat sekuriteit vir jou voertuig bied nie. Ons kamer se DSTV het nie gewerk nie en hul het ook geen poging aangewend om te herstel nie. Sal gewis nie die verblyf aanbeveel nie.

Not value for money.

The main building and rooms are very nice and are used in the marketing. However, we slept in outbuildings with our two adult daughters. They had to walk through our unit to the outside through overgrown plants because their unit does not have an exterior door. In addition, the family next door was sitting on their porch right against my children's kitchen window. The toilet paper was insufficient and there is no gate to provide security for your vehicle. Our room's DSTV did not work and they made no attempt to repair it. Would certainly not recommend the accommodation.

Disappointing, expected more.

We expected B&B, but it was a self-catering unit and then no/limited cutlery provided. Vehicle safety concerns. No gates, lockup garage or visible security presence. We were also the only guests at the time on very large property.
