Very good place to stay - neat, clean, quiet environment, quality beds.
Roode Bloem is a beautiful old house, well equipped for self-catering. It was a great place to stay - neat, clean, very quiet environment, quality beds (good mattresses and bedding) and well equipped kitchen. It has enough braai drums and chairs and seating outside so that the guests can keep their own braai separate from others and sit back and relax.

Plenty of parking was important as we were pulling a 6m trawler. The stay at Roode Bloem Farm House gave us that.

The house is full of character and an experience to spend the night in.
I think the place should be a B&B instead, as the joint cooking is not actually in a single self-help area. Everyone uses one kitchen. Not my style, other people might like it, but not me.

Lovely farm getaway.
Beautiful charming old farmhouse with high ceilings, wooden floors and big stoep, neat, clean, large kitchen equipped with everything you need, braai facilities with wood (R15), easily accessible near the main road, but far enough away that traffic doesn't bother, quiet dirt roads to ride your bike, lots of birds, friendly hosts, definitely worth sleeping over more than one night. If you are a light sleeper, the wooden floors will bother you when people walk into the house.

Nice and quiet and safe, we found that spending the night in Graaf-Reinet town is not nice at all, because you are overrun with beggars and do not feel safe. The room and bathroom fully suited our needs. Very neat and clean. Good linen and pillows. Reception was friendly and helpful. Will definitely stay there again in the future.

Homely experience. Had a late night talking around the kitchen table.
Coming home to Roode Bloem Farm House after a busy day in town was so blissful. The silence cannot be described. We were a group of 6 people that slept in 3 rooms. Even though there were other guests staying in the house as well, it was never uncomfortable. The giant, well equipped kitchen can accommodate lots of people at once. Excellent linen and beds. We never made use of the spacious lounge because it needs more seating.

Our reception and accommodation were exactly as we would have expected — first class. Our host and wife went out of their way to make us feel at home, comfortable and well appointed, and they succeeded well. We like routine and pattern, which is why we will definitely inquire there first again, should we ever look for a place to sleep in the area again.

Quiet rural atmosphere.
It's an old farmhouse that has recently been renovated with excellent rooms and attached bathrooms, made of high quality materials. The beds and linen are brand new and crisp. The communal kitchen has everything needed for self-catering, while there are ample braai facilities. Excellent accommodation close to Graaff-Reinet which has so many attractions, it justifies an overnight stay. We will use again. However, the outbuildings, in approach to the house, need attention as they negatively affect the view of the facilities. Still highly recommend.
