Accommodation with a personal touch
Great location, service and facilities. The house was well maintained and clean. Great COVID practice. I will definitely stay here again. Leon and Luke were extremely helpful and friendly. I was disappointed to have left after just one night.

Excellent stay with very friendly and helpful staff from reception to departure. We really enjoyed the beautiful room with welcome sherry. The nice fireplace waiting when we arrived back from dinner was also a nice touch. Thanks for a wonderful stay at a affordable rate.

Amazing, spotless clean, every need met. Superb. Room I cannot describe how wonderful this place is, thought I’d got the wrong address cost so reasonable. We stay regularly in Hotels and this is by far our favorite just Brilliant

One of the nicest places I’ve stayed. Amazing house, superb room and a very comfortable bed as well as super helpful super hosts. The breakfast was to die for, very nicely presented and super tasty. The staff was equally nice and very helpful. I shall return again in the nearest future. Thank you both for making my stay very pleasant.

This is a beautiful property in a great location. Our accommodation (Cottage 6) was very spacious, beautifully decorated and well equipped. The Manor House itself is a real gem - full of interesting art, literature and furnishings. Leon and Luke are great hosts. They were always on hand to chat over our plans and offer any assistance we needed. The overall experience felt more like sharing their home than staying in a hotel. So if you want something that is high quality yet really homely, just book it!

Consistently great
We’ve stayed at Vredenburg before and the reception we’ve received has always been brilliant. The room is in great condition and the bed is extremely comfortable. It’s a beautiful old house with all of the creature comforts of home. Our only criticism is that the breakfast was not of the quality we would expect from this type of 4 star establishment
Response from Leon on 2018/3/30
Good afternoon Tanya Thank you for your lovely review. I do not understand what else you would like for breakfast other than better weather? We usually serve breakfast on the pool patio, but it was overcast and cool on Sunday. We have a hot breakfast menu with 7 options like the English Breakfast your husband had and the Eggs Benedict you had. Then together with the hot breakfast made per order, there is a full buffet with exotic fruit salad, yogurts, serials, freshly baked breads, muffins, scones, croissants and then a cold meat and cheese platter with preserves. Bottomless supply of drinks like juice, huge selection of teas and excellent Italian Coffee. What are we missing that you would say will bring us to what you would expect at the massive discounted rate you booked at? Regards Leon

Beautiful location, tranquillity and friendly
My mum and I have just returned from a stay at Vrendenburg Manor House, the location is beautiful and very peaceful. Luke and Leon make you very welcome and will do everything to make your stay perfect. The breakfast on the veranda in the sun was just a great start to the day with a choice of fruits, cereal, yogurt, breads, cheeses and meat along with a full cooked menu. The rooms are clean and very comfortable. The house itself is well decorated and comfortable. Paintings, books and pieces of art make for a lovely feel to the manor house along with the piano. The staff are all very friendly and make sure everyday that your stay is going well. The gardens and pool are also well kept even at this time of drought. I would definitely stay here again I loved the relaxing peaceful surroundings. Thank you Luke and Leon for a lovely stay. You do need a car to get around but most things are fairly close and easy to get to with GPS.

Wonderful
I went to SA to spend New Year's Eve with my family and friends. I happened upon this place it is well-- incredible in every way and I am already planning to go back! From the personal touch offered by Leon and Luke and their incredible team, to the room that smelled of lilac when I entered. Breakfast was incredible I couldn't eat it all. It's centrally located in a very safe environment.

Overall the hotel was very good only let down by the restaurant they did not have the main 2 items on the menu and the starter was inedible and was difficult to get any answers from the staff as to why. Breakfast was reasonable.

Super Gastgeber
Tolle Mansion, hier lebt man Geschichte! Die Gastgeber sind zuvorkommend und sehr nett. Wir hatten ein Cottage mit kleinem Garten, da würde man es gut zwei Wochen aushalten. Wir haben sogar zu Gunsten einer weiteren Nacht ein schon bezahltes Hotel sausen lassen:)
