Detailed Reviews
I was stranded in Calvinia on a sunday afternoon after my car broke down on the way home. The owner of Die Ou Lady and Magriet went out of their way to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The room had everything we needed and even a braai which we enjoyed the evening under the stars. The shower was a dream and our bed and pillows made for a very much needed sleep - we slept like babies. All in all neat clean and comfortable. The breakfast was also delicious and affordable. 10 stars from me!!

We overnighted here on our bike trip. Lovely spacious, clean room. All our needs were met. Had dinner at the Blou Nartjie which was very good serving Karoo lamb.
A great stop after the long distance travelled from Britannia Bay.

Our stay at Die Ou Lady was only positive starting with Luzanne’s excellent reception and service. The cottage was clean, comfortable and very well equipped. Breakfast was really good with many choices. All over a good experience and a lovely stay.

We stayed here as a stopover on our way back to Cape Town. We had a 2-bedroom chalet with a small kitchen with secure parking. We had lunch and breakfast, both of which were excellent. There is a restaurant within walking distance for dinner that was also very good. I would definitely stay here again if I was in the area.

Wonderful place to stay, very convenient and wonderful lady who will help you whenever necessary. The rooms were very well equipped and nicely decorated and had everything we needed. The hot water was very hot and all in all just a very good place for an overnight stay. IF the NOT SO OLD lady is home, then you can ask her for some of her wonderfully delicious mutton neck or quiche. The place is conveniently located just opposite the church in town and perfect for a stopover.

The cottage was clean and tidy. A lot of planning went into the decor. Cottage even catered for load shedding!
The hosts were attentive and saw us settled in.
This place is recommended when passing through Calvinia. The vehicle was safely behind a locked gate.

Had a wonderful breakfast at Die Ou Lady. Very well priced and the quality of the food and service was good. The whole menu look appealing and its such a pity that you have to make a selection. The mince with egg on toast was a great way to start the day.

Truly great place! The owners treated us very kindly and they really went out of their way to make us feel comfortable. If you go there make sure to order that special dish based on lamb neck (can’t remember the name).
