Most enjoyable and relaxing in peaceful surroundings.

We enjoyed a very pleasant three-night stay at Yellow Aloe. Michael and Cheryl were welcoming hosts, as were all their staff. Being able to have laundry done was a bonus. The rooms were well appointed. A desk was provided for my husband, who had to work whilst staying there. Supper one evening was also provided for a number of guests, but it is not the norm. Sadly, there are very few places to eat an evening meal in Clanwilliam. We were in Clanwilliam to see the flowers and the well-known annual flower show in the church.

Dit was 'n baie goeie ervaring.

Dit was my tweede keer by Yellow Aloe in die Long House. Die kamers is baie goed en smaakvol toegerus. Die bestuurder het uit sy pad gegaan om te midde van die koue, nat weer en beurtkrag ons verblyf baie aangenaam te maak. Op die aand van beurtkrag het hy vir ons 'n kaggelvuur gemaak met genoeg droë hout om die aand deur te hou. Die tuin is 'n lushof met baie verskuilde verrassings en die voëlgesang is sielsverkwikkend. Die ontbyte was baie lekker en keurvol opgedien. Laaste, maar beslis nie die minste nie: Hulle het heerlike koffie. Ek kan die verblyf beslis aanbeveel.

It was a very good experience.

This was my second time at Yellow Aloe in the Long House. The rooms are very well and tastefully furnished. The manager went out of his way to make our stay very pleasant despite the cold, wet weather and load shedding. On the night of load shedding, he made us a fire in the fireplace with enough dry wood to last us through the evening. The garden is a loop court with many hidden surprises and the birdsong is soul-invigorating. The breakfasts were very tasty and carefully served. Last, but certainly not least: They have great coffee. I can definitely recommend the accommodation.

Good morning Pieter

We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us - in fairness the time line you provided us verbally at the time of your checking out and the time line you have quoted for your waiting time for your breakfast are three different times.

Our staff and ourselves are more than willing and often called upon to serve extra early breakfasts when our guests know that they have a long travel day ahead the next day. It is a part of our client service protocol.

For your future hosts going forward, I am sure that they will find your notice information most helpful to ensure your early start is smooth and happy.

Kind regards
Cheryl

'n Klein oase van geure en kleure.

Dit was net 'n oorslaap vir my roete, 'n verskriklike mooi plek met 'n kalm en rustige atmosfeer. Vriendelike verwelkoming en diens. Ek het ook 'n opgradering gekry vir die aand, so ek het meer gekry as wat ek voor betaal het en 'n lekker gesonde ontbyt bedien met 'n glimlag en gasvryheid.

Ons het hier heerlik gekuier en lekker geslaap.

Die gastehuis is sentraal geleë in Clanwilliam. Kan na winkels en restaurante stap. Clanwilliam is 'n goeie wegspringpunt om die Sederberge te verken. Die verblyf is gemaklik, netjies en skoon. Die tuine is 'n ervaring met die mooiste bome en kuierhoekies waar ons lekker kon sit en gesels en 'n glasie wyn drink. Die eienaars is vriendelik en gasvry en die diens by ontbyt flink. Sal regtig aanbeveel.

The guesthouse is centrally located in Clanwilliam. Can walk to shops and restaurants. Clanwilliam is a good starting point for exploring the Cedar Mountains. The accommodation is comfortable, neat and clean. The gardens are an experience with the most beautiful trees and corners where we could sit and chat and drink a glass of wine. The owners are friendly and hospitable and the service at breakfast is brisk. Would really recommend.

Beautiful garden and fantastic breakfast.

Spent one night here. Easy to find and off-road parking. It was a bonus that there were two men washing cars outside the entrance, which we took advantage of. Our car was very muddy after a road trip. A R100 well spent. We had booked two bedrooms and this came with a bathroom in between the two rooms. This was entered by a door off the sitting room which means it was completely private and we could traverse between the two rooms and bathroom in complete privacy. There was a kettle in one of the rooms, some rusks and tea bags. Fresh milk was available in the fridge in the communal kitchen. Outside the very well-equipped kitchen was a sitting room opening to a different section of the garden. There was a wood burning fireplace in the sitting room but it was not lit, which was fine by us. Our rooms were comfortable and good reading lights by the beds. An electric blanket was in both beds. The towels were a bit rough, but not a deal breaker. As with all these places, the pillows were like slabs. My fault for forgetting my own pillow. After a week of sleeping in various places, I have a very stiff neck. The security was good and there are see-through bars on windows and shutters. The garden was a highlight and I could have spent hours in it. Very interesting flowers, creepers, succulents, gorgeous fever trees and so on. Two very adorable kittens (feral, but would allow you to pet them if you were patient). Breakfast was a highlight in the main house. We were greeted by a roaring fire and enjoyed the yoghurt, plentiful very good fruit salad, I think there was museli as well. Tea and coffee were offered and we had a cooked breakfast which was very well cooked accompanied by good brown bread and freshly squeezed orange juice (halleluja). Just a note that they do not serve dinner. We went to Michaels down the road which was 'different' in terms of décor and rather claustrophobic (ask to sit outside on the verandah). The food was perfectly adequate. Service friendly but a little slow. I would like to visit the guesthouse in summer and enjoy the garden and pool.

Wonderlike ligging en pragtige tuine

Die ligging van die gastehuis is uiters sentraal. Daar is pragtige tuine waar die kinders na hartelus hulself kon uitleef. Netheid van die kamers en badkamer het 'n klein bietjie aandag nodig, maar 'n algehele heerlike ervaring.

Baie gulhartige ontvangs, skoon verblyf, maar nie die mees professionele diens nie.

Baie gulhartige ontvangs, maar baie min hulp bv. geen brosjure in kamer om aan te dui hoe TV werk nie of om WiFi-kode (indien beskikbaar) te verskaf of vir hulpverlening nie. Ons het laat die aand in die kamer teruggekom na ons ete en om dan iemand te probeer opspoor om sulke kleinighede te versoek, is tydmors. Dus het ons daarsonder gegaan.

Very generous reception, clean accommodation, but not the most professional service.

Very generous reception, but very little help e.g. no brochure in room to indicate how TV works or to provide WiFi code (if available) or for assistance. We came back to the room late in the evening after our meal and then trying to find someone to request such trifles is a waste of time. So we went without it.

Wat 'n verrassing! Van die gasvrye verwelkoming regdeur tot ons vertrek was Michel en Cheryl wonderlike gashere. Die kamer was perfek. Ontbyt heerlik. Hulle doen moeite om vir jou vir aandete by 'n restaurant te bespreek. Die tuin is asemrowend met baie hoekies. 'n Ware lushof. Dis 'n ware bederf.

They go out of their way to make dinner reservations for you at a restaurant. The garden is breathtaking with many nooks and crannies. A real loop court. It's a real treat.

Al ons verwagtinge is meer as aan voldoen en ons sal beslis weer daar tuis gaan en met die hoogste lof aanbeveel.

Ons verblyf by Yellow Aloe was baie aangenaam. Ons kamer, die diens, ontbyt en tee en toebroodjies op die stoep was van die hoogste gehalte en ons het baie lekker gekuier.

Ouwêreldse sjarme.

Anne is 'n vriendelike gasvrou en die ontbyt was heerlik. Ons het egter onveilig gevoel. Die meeste van die ligte op die lang stoep was dood en dit was stikdonker toe ons terugkeer van aandete in die dorp rondom 21:00. Ons het ook gevrees vir ons motor se veiligheid gedurende die nag.

Old world charm.

Anne is a friendly hostess and the breakfast was delicious. However, we felt unsafe. Most of the lights on the long stoep were dead and it was dark when we returned from dinner in town around 21:00. We also feared the safety of our car during the night.

Rustig in die natuur!

Die Yellow Aloe gastehuis was 'n groot verrassing gewees - ons tuinwoonstel was baie gerieflik omring met 'n lieflike tuin en swembad. Die aandete in die restaurant op die perseel kan beslis aanbeveel word met uitstekende kos - ook vir ontbyt - die ontvangs was vriendelik en almal baie behulpsaam. Baie dankie Yellow Aloe, dit was heerlik om by julle te oornag!

Ons het vir 4 nagte bespreek sodat ons die omgewing kan verken.

Hierdie gastehuis is nie 'n 4 ster-gradering werd nie. Ons bespreekte kamer is verander omdat daar bouwerk aan die hoofhuis was en ons nie daarvan in kennis gestel is nie. Daar was nie warm water vir die alternatiewe kamer die aand en ook nie die oggend nie. Die eienaar het ons probeer akkommodeer en ons 'n ander kamer aangebied. Sy het nie die kamer gekontrolleer nie en dit was vol stof en dooie spinnekoppe. Ons was baie teleurgesteld aangesien ons nie omgee om vir goeie akkommodasie te betaal nie, maar R1100 per aand was net te veel en nie waarde vir geld nie.

We booked for 4 nights so we could explore the area.

This guest house is not worthy of a 4 star rating. Our booked room was changed because there was construction on the main house and we were not informed about it. There was no hot water for the alternative room in the evening nor in the morning. The owner tried to accommodate us and offered us another room. She hadn't checked the room and it was full of dust and dead spiders. We were very disappointed as we don't mind paying for good accommodation but R1100 per night was just too much and not value for money.

Paar dae in Clanwilliam om die omgewing te verken.

Met bevestiging is ek deur Yellow Aloe meegedeel dat LekkeSlaap 'n fout gemaak het, maar eintlik was dit Yellow Aloe wat 'n dubbelbespreking gemaak het! Daarom was ons na 'n ander gastehuis met 'n laer gradering oorgeplaas. Yellow Aloe wou toe aandring op hanteringsfooie vir die ander gastehuis. Die ander gastehuis kla ook dat Yellow Aloe dit gereeld doen, gaste na hulle toe stuur en dan nie daarvoor betaal nie ... Glad nie 'n aangename ervaring met Yellow Aloe nie.

A few days in Clanwilliam to explore the area.

On confirmation, I was told by Yellow Aloe that LekkeSlaap made a mistake, but in fact it was Yellow Aloe who made a double booking! Therefore we were transferred to another guest house with a lower rating. Yellow Aloe then wanted to insist on handling fees for the other guest house. The other guesthouse also complains that Yellow Aloe often does this, sending guests to them and then not paying for it... Not a pleasant experience with Yellow Aloe at all.

A clean and comfortable guesthouse.

We enjoyed our stay in this comfortable guesthouse. The breakfasts were good and the hostess cheerful and friendly. If I was to criticize anything it would be the wardrobe under the eaves where there was no light and it was difficult to see. We also had to ask for tooth mugs. Otherwise a really enjoyable stay in the area that we wished to travel, to see the flowers.
