Such a lovely place. We stayed in the chalet, with 2 bedrooms and we loved the house and garden with the lawn, shared pool, swings, trampoline. The house was clean, well maintained. The location is amazing. Walking distance to all the nice lunch and dining restaurants. Owners are very friendly. Highly recommend Roosje van de Kaap!

Amir

From

Everything about this place was splendid. First and foremost, the host was excellent—he couldn't do enough for me. An absolute gentleman. The place was very clean, with lovely decorations, and the veranda offered spectacular views of the mountains, where a delicious breakfast was served. I also sat there in the evening, and it was peaceful and amazing. The room was spacious, with everything I needed, including a mini-fridge, kettle, and coffee and tea. The bed was comfortable. The outdoor pool looked nice. The area is very safe and secure, with gated parking, and there are two beautiful dogs that rarely bark and are just so loving—well-trained and much better than any alarm system. I don’t say this lightly: I highly recommend this place. The host is friendly, social, and just a lovely person. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. One small thing: The Google Maps address will take you there, but it’s about 400 meters off. Google will tell you to turn right after passing the actual place. My advice is to follow Google but don’t turn right onto the uphill road. Just go back around the corner on the flat road where you came from, and you’ll see the white house set back behind the gates around 3 houses down from that corner street that google puts you on. The host is lovely and offers a wonderful breakfast. If you expect to arrive late or are delayed, please have the common courtesy to inform the host of your late arrival. If you wish to check out very early, requesting breakfast is disrespectful, especially after arriving late for whatever reason. It's important to be considerate and respectful of the host's time and efforts. It's nice to be nice, and when the host is a good person, it's important to show respect and thoughtfulness. Although the host is amazing and would accommodate everyone’s needs, don’t take the mickey. :)

Comfortable, safe little town with much to offer, two nights minimum stay I would suggest. Very convenient also as a stopover on the way back to Capetown, or indeed travelling in the opposite direction.

Swellendam is a stunning town.

Swellendam is a stunning town. All the comforts you need are there and at the same time you can get away into the mountains and outer areas. There are good restaurants and coffee shops and great activities around the area. Mountain biking is what I would go for, but our stay was too short. Lots of history and my family and I were surprised at what this town had to offer. We normally just drive past, but was great to stay over.

A beautiful little town with a lot to see, do and eat. The restaurants are top notch. We ate at De Vagebond for Supper their food was fantastic with great and friendly service, then we had breakfast at La Belle Alliance their view, food and service were tops. We also had a breakfast at Aan de Eike Guest House, it is a beautiful modern restaurant with lekker food and friendly service. The town is so clean and absolutely beautiful. We love going there. Activities for big and small go to the Fairy Garden. Swellendam is definitely a town to visit!

The Hamlet

Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.5

Exceptional - What previous guests thought, 63 reviews

The Hamlet is situated in a beautiful valley just outside of Swellendam. Although it is only a few minutes away from the town, it doesn’t feel that way with horses, cows, peacocks, and little chickens roaming around the farm. The unit was well-equipped and clearly well cared for. We especially enjoyed the wood-fired hot tub outside; it was a nice touch that the fire was already going when we checked in in the afternoon. These thoughtful details contributed to a lovely stay!

The view from the room was incredible. Self catering accommodation, so we decided to take full advantage of the room and nip to the local supermarket for food. We ate on our balcony area and watched the sun set. Staff were also very welcoming and let us use the washing facilities for an extra charge. Room was very spacious and everything needed inside.
