We only stayed for a single night  but one of the nicest stays of our trip. A quaint and very cute country style with comfortable furnishings in a little cottage type building with a lounge, mini pantry, comfortable bedroom and good sized bathroom. The owner host was very welcoming and friendly - homemade cake on arrival & fridge stocked with complimentary beer & soft drinks.
The property has an interesting history to read about and the breakfast room in the main house is lovely …… as was the breakfast !
Location is handy being within a short walk of lots of nice restaurants and shops - highly recommended …. You will enjoy staying here !

Perfect Country Style Lodge - Loved it

If we could award more than 5 out of 5 we would have. Wow! The staff were amazing. So attentive and accommodating. They made us special treats and went out of their way to entertain us. Beautiful gardens and lovely rooms. Food was amazing! Can definitely recommend this gem in Swellendam.

Swellendam Gem!

Quaint b n b in Swellendam...
Original house from the 1700s 
The owner was away overseas but the staff were very attentive. 
The breakfast was superb ....homemade bread, jams ,delicious choice of eggs ,omelettes, French toast, etc.



Quaint b n b in Swellendam 

We stayed here on our honeymoon and we can’t recommend this guesthouse enough! The Arum cottage was stylish, comfortable and warm (even in the middle of winter). The beautiful garden on the property gives the place a secluded feel, so you don’t even notice that it’s near a main road. We booked in on the breakfast, bed and dinner meal and it was definitely great value for money. The on site restaurant is amazing! Hands down the best food we had on our trip. Such delicious flavors and all the food is freshly made by the talented kitchen staff. The bread they serve at breakfast is a big highlight.

Perfect place for a getaway 

We arrived late in the day, but were just in time to join dinner that evening.  Dinner is an event with delicious small plates, conversation and wine.  Plan to spend time and enjoy it. The patio setting was lovely as dusk fell and the patio was lit with candles and small lights.  The seven course meal was varied and filling. Each dish was our favorite, until the next one came- a fantastic meal.  A portion of the cost for dinner goes to a local charity to feed children in the area.  We only stayed one night, but the next morning Terrence had washed our car.  Our host and the staff were wonderful. Worth a stop in Swellendam. 

Don't Miss the Tasting Menu Dinner

There is nothing I can say that has not been said before , place is amazing as are the owners and staff. And the owners ethics.

One thing you should do is eat here in the evening it is very ,very good , but email or call to tell them you want the evening meal as they don't cook every night but will if they have enough requests for it on that day.

Truely Amazing

This was such an amazing oasis that we regretted that we only had time to spend one night. The owners that gave us a great history lesson about the house and the town before checking us in to one of the loveliest “rooms” I’ve ever seen was ever so cordial! Great service and everything you could ever hope for in a Country House or any where else. 

A lovely oasis

Just one night at this oddity and quite unexpected. Don't expect turned down beds and be aware of mosquitoes but this is simply too good to miss. The evening meal and breakfast are just oozing South Africa at its very best.

Want a different experience. This is it.

Dinner was such a great surprise. The standard of cuisine  was excellent. As was breakfast the next day. What a wonderful place. Run with an attention to detail few hotels can match. The owner / host was so attentive and charming and we we made very welcome by all the staff.


Fantastic in every way

Augusta de Mist was one of the highlight of our SA trip : both dinner and breakfast were delicious and home cooked, the Gardens are beautiful, thé room was big and confortable - our host always made an extra effort to make sure we were feeling at home - which we did and was happy to Share his knowledge of SA with us ! The Town of Swellendam is a cute stop on your way to and from Cape Town. Overall this was a great stay ! Thanks to the team ! Elisabeth
