Our Time was short but perfect at Vineyard Views. Mid Winter means cold and rain, but how fabulous it was to arrive in a cozy Home Hotel, where you immediately feel relaxed. Welcomed by the ever attentive Gareth ,we were seated next to a roaring fire, in our socks, sipping Cappuccinos and enjoying Gareth's freshly baked Lemon drizzle cake...Just for us. We have traveled a bit in our lives, but when you find that balance of Home and hotel, you realize that THIS is what those Fancy Shmancy Hotels Miss ...A little bit of Love Breakfast was a sunny morning affair with fresh flowers , views and breakfast courses from yummy fruit salads, beautifully presented, freshly baked breads and a cheese and meat platter for the extra hungry. YES everyone...this is the place to stay!

This review is long overdue but this place came up over a family dinner and I HAD to write something. Gareth and Grant were the most fantastic hosts to me and my parents when we spent a couple of nights in December. The property is absolutely beautiful and the fact that they have overcome load-shedding is amazing, but then we get onto the lovely friendly welcome and the to-die-for lemon drizzle cake, just to get started. We were also lucky enough to have dinner including lamb from Gareth’s family’s farm which was just outstanding. Drinks and canapés by the pool are an absolute delight. Not a bad word to say… foodie heaven! I really hope we are back soon!!

A perfect stay in every way! The property is located minutes from the town center, beautifully decorated and comfortable throughout, from the lounge with fireplace, to outdoor deck, pool area with beautiful views, to the bedroom and bathroom. One of the best night's sleeps in a long time! Gareth is a flawless host. Attentive, engaging and able to pre-empt your every need. From arrival coffee and cake, to early evening drinks and canapés to the breakfast the next day, all absolutely delicious, ample and beautifully presented. It is rare to stay somewhere where you're made to feel totally spoiled the entire time. Highly recommended and we will most certainly be back!

What a delight staying at this beautifully appointed and decorated guest house. A true Gem! Gareth and Grant are the perfect hosts and their attention to detail is outstanding. The food, all made by the 2 of them is first class, so if they do offer dinner whilst you are staying there I suggest you book for it as it’s just divine. Thanks Gareth and Grant - we cannot wait to be back.

What a gem! You could not ask for more charming and attentive hosts. Gareth and Grant certainly know how to make you feel extra special starting with tea and homemade cake on arrival to aperitif and hors d'oeuves to a superb breakfast. The furnishings are beautiful, cosy fireplace and 3 adorable dogs on top of it all. I highly recommend it!

A beautiful special guest house which makes you realize that Airbnb are not that much fun. The home was beautiful - lovely outdoor area with a pools and views. Living room and dining room amazing. Our rooms were so comfortable with a fabulous bathroom. Just a very comfortable room and an amazing place to stay. The food we were served - orange drizzle cake for tea, and an amazing breakfast. Eating a whole loaf of milk bread after eggs, fruit and granola was not difficult. There were so many lovely touches - beautiful lamps, friendly dogs, great hosts, electric blankets are just a few things that make this place special.

This Guesthouse is unbelievably beautiful. Gareth and Grant have made their guesthouse look and feel like a little Shangri-La for guests and looked after us so well. What’s more is Gareth and Grant can cook and with some forewarning you can request a dinner or lunch. We enjoyed the most incredible dinner and breakfast in the morning was exceptional. From the cleanliness, beauty and detailed experience we had. I wouldn’t consider staying anywhere else.

Wow, is all I can say. Such a beautiful setting, amazing rooms and friendly staff. Gareth and Grant make you feel so at home. They are unbelievable chefs and treated us to a real feast!
