We have never seen hospitality like that provided by Gina and Fernand at Olive Garden Country Lodge. Our room was beautiful and the baby cot already set up for us. We were welcomed with wine, cheese, and homemade snacks. Their working farm is in a private valley of high desert, fruit trees, olive groves, and lovely hikes. Fernand was our... More

We spent an entire day and one night in the honeymoon suite at the lodge and loved every minute of it. The smell of the valley, the luxury accomodation and exceptional treatment from Fernand who completed it all with an indulgent breakfast. The olives and olive oil from this working farm are really, really good. We left completely satisfied with... More

Olive Garden Country Lodge is very, very good but what makes it exceptional is the passion that both Gina and Fernand put into everything they do. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending it as a very peaceful place to stay.

We stayed here for 2 nights as our choice for the "luxury" part of our week trekking in the area and were not disappointed. There is no need to explore anywhere else for food (as my partner says "you are remiss if you go anywhere else"), when you have Ferdinand to cook meals for you! We thoroughly enjoyed every meal...

Host and hostess - great. Location - great. Wildlife - great. Accommodation - great. Food - great. What more can I say, we were welcomed by Gina and Ferdinand right from arriving and thoroughly looked after. This is a quality rustic escape in a "biodynamic" context where they care about the earth and not only are great hosts but also... More

My wife and I stayed at the lodge for three nights during our first trip to South-Africa. The combination of the wonderful scenery and the enthousiastic hospitality of our hosts, Gina and Fernand, made it a magnificent experience. We stayed at the beautiful "honeymoon cottage" and thus enjoyed all its luxury in this rural environment. The cosy restaurant and Fernands... More

The beauty of the Robertson mountains and the smell of fynbos combined with the hospitality and friendliness of Gina and Fernand made our engagement weekend at Olive Garden unforgettable. It is definitely a destination that I will recommend to all who enjoy quality food, beautiful and cosy rooms/cottages but most of all the serenity of raw nature which is also... More
