The warm atmosphere with Chante's sweet and kind hospitality made it an unforgettable experience. We were given our own cottage that was like a small apartment and she never lost her smile no matter how many times we came around to ask about the area, the guesthouse, restaurants and even the TV (my husband is spoiled with Youtube and no longer knows how to work a DSTV box) Thank you, Chante for your warm welcome and for all your patience with us. We will return in a months time!

Beautiful and very peaceful. Colesberg is quite cold however the heater and electric blankets definitely assist in keeping one warm. The solar power is a great idea for load shedding in beautiful SA. Thank you Hostees!

Great place to stay! Very spacious and clean. Friendly and efficient service. Reasonably priced. Antique feel. Location seemed a little seedy, but we were told by management that it is extremely safe. Highly recommended!

Wasn't sure about the exterior but the inside was nice. A nice young lady helped as check-in and organized takeaway for us to be delivered cause we had a late book-in after restaurants had already closed. Gave us good food recs - liked the buffalo wings and burgers. Had enough space for my trailer. Nice room. Friendly worker. Will stay again

They were always available, providing helpful recommendations and ensuring my every need was met. The spaciousness of the guesthouse allowed for a serene and private retreat, offering ample room to relax and unwind after a long drive. The location was perfect, conveniently close, making it easy to explore the town. …

The Lighthouse was conveniently located and the room very spacious and clean. Restaurants were withing walking distance, check-in and check-out without any complications. The cold winters will probably require a heater in the rooms.
