Reviews

The room was very small but clean. The bed was absolutely gorgeous.
Elianthe haben wir als Zwischenstopp während der Reise von CT nach Knysna gewählt. Die Einrichtung der Zimmer und Weitläufigkeit der Anlage würde definitiv auch für einen längeren Aufenthalt passen.
Wir hatten die Haneymoon Suite. Diese liegt leider etwas nahe an der Hauptstraße, so dass es ab ca 7 Uhr laut wurde im Zimmer. Die Nacht über war jedoch so gut wie kein Verkehr, so dass der Schlaf sehr erholsam war.
Wir sind mit Kleinkind gereist, welches toll im schön angelegten Garten spielen konnte und vom Personal überall betüdelt wurde. Der Pool ist nicht für Kleinkinder geeignet - zu tief.
Tolles Frühstück, leckere Eier, schöner Frühstücksraum.
Eine Empfehlung!!

Everything!
we just spent our time at the camp. did not venture out
Lots of restaurants, beautiful town.
The fresh air and peacefulness.
Tranquillity, close to nature. Quite and a place to let all stress go!
Beautiful views and the tranquility of the mountains.
Quaint little restaurants.
Swellendam is a quaint little town, friendly people and plenty of unique coffee shops. The perfect destination for a short weekend vacation away form the busy city.
We popped in to Swellendam town on the way home for a delightful lunch off the main street.
Good base for exploring surrounding area.
The historic architecture. Friendly townsfolk and the riverside scenery.
