We had the most amazing stay at Paul Wallace. The owners were lovely and really went the extra mile to make us feel at home! The view from the cottage is beautiful. We'd also highly recommend booking a tasting of their wines (right next to the cottage). We'll be back!

Ons het so lekker gebly! Die plaas is 'n "hidden gem". Ons kon draf op die plaas, swem in die dam, braai op die stoep en wynproe reg langs die cottages saam die wynmaker self! Paul het ons van aankoms tot koebaai tuis laat voel. Alles is mooi skoon en netjies en goed ingerig. Sal dit beslis aanbeveel aan enigiemand!

Een van die rustigste plekke om te ontspan.

Paul Wallace se gasvryheid en diens is van uitstaande gehalte. So baie plekke in die omgewing om te besoek en te geniet, die rustigheid is welkom. Nogal verrassend om 'n wynplaas te sien tussen die vele appelplantasies.

Verblyf is netjies en skoon.

Verbetering wat ek sal voorstel. Kamers het geen plek vir tasse of enige hangplek vir klere nie. Vir die prys sou dit gaaf gewees het as skoonmakers net ingekom het vir skottelgoed en beddens opmaak. Ander soortgelyke plekke doen dit.

Accommodation is neat and clean.

Improvement I would suggest. Rooms have no space for suitcases or any hanging space for clothes. For the price it would have been nice if cleaners only came in to do dishes and make beds. Other similar places do.

Paul Wallace Wines and Guest Cottages 's response

Thank you for your review Jannie.
We appreciate that there is not a lot of storage space for clothing but as these cottages are restored farm workers cottages, we have limited space to work with. There is a rail with hooks and hangers in each bedroom but we will look at adding some more hooks behind the doors. As for the servicing of the cottages, we do not have any staff living on the farm so that would present a major problem for us, especially over the weekends or when we are off the farm on sales trips. Also there is always the risk of theft, which is something we would prefer to avoid. Hope you understand.
All the best to the family, Nicky Wallace
