The area is peaceful but still close to everything. The apartment itself is gorgeously decorated, and everything you’ll need is there. Warm & comfy for the winter and they have an AC unit for summer. Definitely recommend staying here!

Everything from arriving to leaving. The property is in an excellent location and easy walking distance to the centre of town. The family room was large and spacious and well equipped with everything you needed and spotlessly clean. The garden was well looked after, the pools and seating areas were lovely and the views amazing. All the staff, Cindy the manager, Morris who did everything, the lovely lady housekeepers and all the other staff were all so very welcoming, helpful and friendly. We didn't want to leave.

    This is the perfect Guesthouse in Stellenbosch with what has to be the best breakfast in all of South Africa. The rooms are charming, well-decorated and with everything you could possibly need. John is a wonderful host and he made my group feel very special. Amazing value for your money. Even if you don't like wine, come to Stellenbosch just so you can stay at Van der Stel Manor.
