Thank you Valerie for the friendly welcome and sharing valued information on Graaff-Reinet. The accommodation was amazing, room had a warm welcoming look, all the amenities one needs. For a cold winter night the hot blanket and aircon were life savers 😱😜 I can highly recommend Rietjiesbos B&B and definitely a place to return.
