It is a hidden Gem in the Karoo. We will definitely come back. It was so relaxing and enjoyable.

Our family stayed at Swartberg Country Manor for one night in February. The first thing that greeted us was the beautiful grounds, and restaurant with a stunning view of the mountain. Then we saw a beautiful historic house with a big old stoep; here we enjoyed 3 very comfortable rooms. And let me not forget the kind and professional staff, including their head chef who made the most wonderful 3 course dinner! A gem! Thank you for a lovely stay.

What an amazing stay! We arrived late at night, but were given such a warm welcome and even asked what we wanted to eat in advance so they could have it ready for us. A simply gorgeous location in the mountains. The focus on fresh, farm ingredients too was a treat. My only regret is that we didn’t stay longer. I would return here in a heartbeat.

The property is isolated near Swartberg pass with stunning views of the surrounding country. The rooms are large, clean and well maintained. Breakfast and dinner were taken in the on-site restaurant and the food and choices available were excellent. Most impressive was the wine list.

I’m SO glad that we included a stay here during our 3-week South Africa trip. Many of our other stops were along the coast, so the quiet peace and beautiful views of Swartberg Manor were a real treat. Our room and bathroom were lovely and comfortable, and the hospitality of the hosts and staff unmatched. Our meals were delicious and beautifully presented. Would definitely stay here again, and for longer than just one night!

Super dejligt sted. Meget høj standard på værrelser, service, mad, vedligehold. Dejlig pool område. Vågnede op til en nyvasket bil :-) Trængte til det efter en 6 timers køretur til "Die Hell" og Swartberg Pas ad grusveje.

Would have loved a fridge in the room. Fresh milk would be a bonus

A fantastic location to enjoy or to use as a base for the wonderful Swatberg area. The round trip to Prince Albert was fantastic! The service is very friendly. The condition of the rooms was a little more run-down than expected based on the photos but still comfortable. As always, the generator noise during load-shedding can be a bit disruptive.

We had a wonderful stay at Swartberg manor. The setting on the farm and views toward the mountain were unbeatable. The wifi was non-existent though which can be a blessing. Breakfasts were wonderful and we had one dinner there which was okay.

It took more than two hours to serve pre-fixed dinner and the main was not hot enough(They were serving per-fixed dinner only).

Waren dort für 2 Nächte, da das Hotel auf unserer Fahrtroute lag. Haben im Historischen Haus ein Zimmer gehabt. Hat doch einen sehr abgewohnten Eindruck gemacht und dass Zimmer war auch sehr beengt, da 2 große Kingsize Betten sich darin befanden. Es gibt noch ein neues Unterkunftshaus, dass einen viel besseren Eindruck macht.

Booked and paid in advance stay here for the last night of our honeymoon. When checking in we were advised that the hotel had not yet been paid by Hotels.com. I provided them with a copy of the confirmation confirming room booked and paid for 9 days previously, but this wasn’t sufficient. I ended up spending 3 hours trying to sort this out what was supposed to be a romantic evening. Hotels.com said they were unable to contact the hotel as no one was answering the phone. I provided them with the manager’s mobile number. They claim they rang this number three times and it rang out. The barman said the manager was at a party and the manager the next day said no call was received. Clearly someone was lying and we were stuck in the middle. The hotel manager was clear it was our issue and not hers. The result was we were made to pay a second time for the room. If this wasn’t enough, apart from the check-in no other staff member at the hotel wore face masks the entire evening. The waiter and waitress were moving from table to table without PPE and when the chef came out he too was maskless. No wonder the COVID infection cases are rising. Regarding dinner, the food ordered was different to that which was ordered. Where there should have been fondant potatoes there were boiled new potatoes. When the chef was asked about it he said he was without his assistant and to quote him verbatim he was “out of his depth”. Could write more but ran out of characters.
