Country Houses in Africa

"Great location. Nicely appointed rooms. Friendly staff. "

"Amazing staff from check in to wine tasting. Would definitely go back because of the staff"

"The actual hotel is really very good and the rooms are outstanding. Nice grounds, nice pool and the food was also of a decent quality. Now on a road trip around South Africa, you get used to warnings about safety and taking care of belongings. Here we were welcomed with a lengthy delivery on all the steps the hotel was taking and what in turn we needed to do, which even by SA standards appeared a bit alarming, so made you think the surrounding area must be a huge 'worry'. Then we were presented...

"The staff is friendly and helpful. The place is clean and food is good. Close to Addo for game viewing. "

"St James was a perfect stay in Knysna - we wished we had booked additional nights, the hotel is a little further out of town but it is quiet, tranquil & the staff were so helpful in organising transport when required. Thanks to Sandy & the team! "

"Had an amazing 2 night stay here, the location is incredible, set against the mountains with an endless view across the desert. Staff are super friendly and welcoming, rooms are great with good AC, especially liked the terrace off the room where you can watch the sunset, sunsets here are incredible. The breakfast and dinner was ok, not amazing, but the location and staff made up for the food quality. "

"Delightful setting, delicious wines and amazing setting for breakfast. Walking the vineyard is most relaxing too!"

"Lovely stay in the Winelands at this countryside hotel. Rooms were lovely , lots of attention to detail. Bed was like sleeping in a cloud. Gorgeous surroundings. "
