15 guests' feedbackVery neat and interesting! Good value for money. Delicious breakfast. Will definitely go again.
Located within an echo friendly quiet space full of educational, historic info, so ideal for family functions.
We felt right at home there.
My husband doesn't drink coffee at all, but when he saw it being ground himself he enjoyed a cup of coffee at all, really delicious. Own bathroom would be nice, but know it's probably not possible.
Had a great time, the guest house is clean and tidy and was kindly received. The guest house is full of antiques which was so interesting.
The museum is phenomenal, the service is amazing! Shaun was definitely the host with the most! Clean, entertaining, yummy breakfast and a great night's sleep.
Shawn is warm and welcoming and the vibe at his place is very relaxing. The museum theme with all the antiques and curios is interesting and makes for a comforting, solid old-time feeling.
Ideal for our needs.
Great host, great food, awesome company.
Great place to visit for anyone who likes history and museums. It is a living domestic museum. Home away from home. Host and hostess (and baby) were warm and friendly. Definitely a 5 star place for the non nose picking people who still like the farm feel.
Very interesting place, hospitable host and the price includes breakfast.
False advertisement. No privacy. The people themselves stay in the house. Jacuzzi, as requested did not work. The child's things are everywhere in the house. The king-size bed room doesn't even have a door that can lock. The place is roughly in Zandspruit.
Will definitely go back. Great place to stay at.
Beautiful old artefacts and a very interesting venue. Very different and pleasant.
Shawn & his wife was great hosts, more than willing to go the extra mile in offering customer service. We really enjoyed our stay with them, unique home (lots of history to share), very neat and spacious. Our coffee treat each morning was amazing! Will definitely stay there again!
