We stayed here for 2 nights in December 2012. A great experience. We loved climbing locally in Montague and spending time by the pool in Marula lodges beautiful garden. The service was really friendly and rooms lovely.

Myself and husband stayed here or two nights with our two children aged 6 and 9. Apart from the girls being completely mesmorised by the two dogs Pedro and Sammy, he accomodation was clean and homely with fabulous breakfast and a nice swimming pool. Both Filippe and Marianne were very welcoming and Swellendam was a fabulous place to stay.

Really nice place. We stopped there for a night on a trip through the wine lands. The welcome was great. The setting lovely, the rooms fine and the service superb. The breakfast was lovely too. Thoroughly recommend it. Would definitely return.

Small but nicely decorated rooms around a nice pool. Beautiful garden and excellent breakfast. Each room has its own table and two chairs next to the room door. But you can also sit in the the living room or on one of the two big tables on the terrace. Very nice and helpful people.

We only spent one night at this lovely B&B unfortunately ! On the day we arrived it was raining heavily but this did not detract from the lovely setting – it was a very well laid out B&B with great attention to detail evident.

Hosts Marion and Fillip are friendy and energetic. The location of the Lodge is terrific, with off street parking. There are several lovely attractions to visit nearby and it is an easy walk into the shops and local restuarants. The gardens are a delight and I was only sorry that we were not there for a camp fire evening. Breakfast... More
