Calitzdorp Country House

We had such a wonderful stay at Calitzdorp Country House! Stunning accommodation. Very comfortable, clean and spacious room. Beautiful garden. Dinner and breakfast were absolutely delicious! Andrew and Nell are amazing hosts. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and definitely recommend it to others!

What a beautiful place and we were surprised. When we took the road out of Calitzdorp towards the guest house I began to doubt whether we had made the right decision. But the moment we passed through the gates and entered, I knew it had been the best choice of our entire trip. The decor is incredibly beautiful old with modern. Rooms are done with detail. The owners Andrew and Nell are incredibly hospitable. Although we only slept there that night, I'm definitely going to come back and bring the whole family to do Nell's masterchef class with them all.

Having been disappointed with the attitude of the hostess at another lodge in Calitzdorp, we chose to stay at Calitzdorp Country House for the night...and WHAT a good decision that was! From the moment we arrived, we were treated like family! Noticing how hot and exhausted we were, Andrew (the owner) poured us a very welcome drink while his darling wife, Nel, showed us around! Nel's offer to prepare us a light supper to save us driving into town was gratefully accepted and what a SUPERB meal she prepared...fresh salmon salad for my partner and a filet steak salad for me. We cannot speak highly enough of our (all too short) stay with Andrew and Nel. Our room was perfect, the view across the valley breathtaking and the pool was a welcome relief from the heat! Thank you, Andrew and Nel!

Les chambres sont confortables avec une très belle salle de bain. Accueil chaleureux Endroit magique . Vue sur des paysages magnifiques. La piscine mériterait d’être rénovée. Je recommande vivement cette maison d’hôtes

A lovely one-night stay at this comfortable and welcoming guesthouse on the outskirts of Calitzdorp. The owners, Nel and Andrew are hospitable and accommodating and one unwinds upon arrival. The pool is lovely and breakfast was delicious - the best we had on our roadtrip

We had our friends from Europe coming for the Christmas and the New Year and we decided to drive down to Cape Town from Johannesburg. One of our stops on our way was Calitzdorp. As we didn't know this place very well we booked Calitzdorp Country House by looking where to stay for one night. We were so lucky that we chose this place as it was absolutely perfect. Firstly, our hosts are fantastic and extremely friendly people. The food at the lodge was so good, that we all agreed the steak done by Nel was ultimately the best one we all ever had. The vine chosen by Dave was so good that we visited the nearby winery and bought a case next day. Andrew as the owner and host was always there to assist, help and tell us the stories about Clitzdorp and the area. For travelers driving to and from Cape Town through the Klein Karoo, Calitzdorp Country House is definitely strongly recommended, as you will, like us, have absolutely unforgettable time.
