It was bitter cold with lots of winter rains ,relentlessly battering our recently retired Home in Hermanus ,when my wife Suzanee,demanded...."let's go somewhere!!"...so we decided on the Karoo around eastern cape,to see what we could find The news that the swartberg pass was closed due to very heavy snowfalls ,resulted in a detour via Oudshoorn and the majestic Meiringskloof pass...

We have been to Prince Albert a few times and have stayed at a couple of places which were all great. This time we were lucky enough to get in (last time it was full) and we will definitely go back. The original farm homestead of Prince Albert which has been lovingly restored to provide authentic, extremely comfortable and well,... More

Prince Albert, the "Dorp van Die Jaar" 2012, aka the coolest dorpie in the Karoo. We had found Dennehof in Frommer's and on TripAdvisor. Per the Frommer's recommendation we reserved the Wagon Shed and were pleasantly surprised at how charming the unit was. Spacious, with some neat historic and art items. Tiny bath room with just a shower, no bath... More

We booked a weekend with friends at the Dennehof which included a trip to die Hel. Accommodation was absolutely wonderful, we shared the Cottage and loved sitting in the cool, little Retro kitchen and having wonderful breakfasts served in the garden. We particularly enjoyed that we could take a lovely evening walk to the restaurant Ria had booked for us... More

Our 2nd visit to Prince Albert. Try some other place, we could not lock our room, key was missing ! R900 was over the edge for room with nothing other than old not functional stuff. flooding in shower was another thing.

We recently took a trip to SA. We stayed over one night in Prins Albert and booked Dennehof. I am disappointed we did not stay longer! I reserved the wagon shed room. Beautiful decor, very spacious. Lovely outside spa and patio. Ria our host was friendly and accommodating. The breakfast menu is awesome. I will highly recommend staying here for... More

I have always longed to stay at Dennehof and my 'dream come true' exceeded my expectations in every way - stylish quirky Karoo decor, oceanliner sized comfortable beds, massive hot 'rain' shower, ceramic woodburner, well stocked kitchenette. And the legendary Dennehof breakfast served by friendly attentive staff on a sunny deck overlooking the valley. Then there's Ria and Lyndsey who... More

We arrived in the dark, after a scary trip over a mountain pass, feeling ready to unwind. Although we thought we had booked the guest house it seemed only one room was available there. Ria showed us instead to a beautiful large neighbouring house where all 5 of us could stay together.So far so good. Ria had kindly booked dinner... More

We were so looking forward to our short one night stop in Prince Albert. When we arrived at Dennehof we knew immediately one night would not be enough. We stayed for three and would have stayed longer but for a previous arranged engagement back in Knysna! From the enormous bed, luxurious linen, deep hot bath, sweet smelling lavender left on... More
