Our family of 3 had a very enjoyable stay in a great room with own fireplace and pool. Linda is an excellent host, staff very nice, breakfast delicious(no dinner food served, however they make a mean cheese platter to enjoy with your bottle of wine around the fireplace) and the house and garden(lavender galore!) were very pleasant. Just a 2... More

We spent a lovely evening in this lovely little gem of a Hotel. The interiors are charming and stylish, the rooms are well thought out, comfortable and luxurious and the staff very friendly and hospitable. We had two rooms, the Elephant Suite - with our own swimming pool on a very cute little terrace and a nearby equally well appointed... More

Beautiful house, comfortable rooms and very nice staff. Place to recommend when you visit the wineland around Cape Town! Very good breakfast. The beautiful garden must be even prettier in spring with the flowers!

We stayed there for one night during our road-trip and we loved it. Old school furniture and very good service! Our room was charming and the breakfast on the stoop looking onto the beautiful gardens was very nice. It was charming.

Renata and her team should all give themselves a pat on the pack. So welcoming and helpfull. Accomodation is amazing (would have liked a terrace, but next year) . Sitting out on the verandah over looking the beautifull garden and the mountains in the background. Breakfast was freshly cooked to order and set us up for the day. The pool... More

A charming place with history in the walls, a beautiful garden and a terrace to enjoy the sunset over the mountains. A service minded staff prepeared breakfast as we wished it. The room was spacy and with an additional door into the garden. We used the Pool area a couple of times to cool down and enjoyed it. The house... More

We stayed one night in Klein Oliphant's Hoeck while travelling from Capetown to Hermanus. A really lovely house, very well maintained. Staff were very friendly and helpful, the room was great, and the breakfast delicious. Would stay for longer if we passed through again.

We were blessed to get a special deal for staying @ Klein Oliphants and it was worth much more! The room that we were assigned came with it's own tiny courtyard and the bathroom was almost more spacious than the bedroom. The bedroom we stayed in was neatly appointed with a complimentary decanter of sherry. Unfortunately, it was also right... More
