"Wonderful place."

Lovely house! Very well equipped and comfortable. Loved the side patio area for morning sunshine and afternoon braais. Loved sitting on the front porch and looking at the world passing by. Very comfortable beds and great hot showers. Only small issue was that the thermostat on the oven doesn't work well. So rather plan to use the airfryer or microwave. Hope to be back soon!

"The best ever."

My kids don't know farm life and this was the best way to show them. It was the best ever. My children enjoyed every moment, especially the horses that come to visit at night.

"Happy peaceful stay in Greyton."

Relaxing and peaceful. We loved sitting out on the stoep with a beautiful view of the mountain. It was close enough to walk into town, and the accommodation was very comfortable.

"It was superb and we enjoyed the stay."

We really enjoyed our stay. Everything is there, no suffering. Even if the load shedding is there, but we didn't suffer, we were able to cook.

"We had a very nice stay. The house has a warm atmosphere with everything you need."

We had a great stay and rested. The house has a warm and homely atmosphere, with everything you need and is very centrally located.

"Enjoyable."

It was comfortable with everything we needed. Perhaps a battery torch would have been good for load shedding. Children can't walk around with paraffin lamps.

"This guest house was great."

The stay at the guest house was great. I would recommend it. It is centrally located and it's just a few minutes' walk to the Greyton Village Market. There is ample space for 6-8 people, and the house has all the conveniences and appliances one would need.

"A lovely getaway just a stone's throw away from Cape Town."

We had such a great time in this very well-equipped house. Perfect for just getting away from busy city life and chilling by the fire while overlooking the centre of town. We would have stayed another week if we could.

"Pleasant surprise — many picnic areas for every weather condition. Fireplace works 100% with a nice view of the town activities. You can't get more central. 200 meters from the market."

Quiet, relaxing, water canal, horses in the town, as well as a horse that came to visit and eat in the garden.

"Great weekend away."

Lovely spacious home with beautiful wood floors! It was particularly hot this weekend, there were fans available! Aircon would be great! There are electric blankets on each bed - and a fireplace - which will be very nice in the cooler months!. Kitchen is well equipped. The braai area is very cozy. The house is right opposite the market that takes place on Saturdays. We will definitely stay here again.

"Quiet, comfortable, beautiful views."

Accommodation was very comfortable, with everything needed, very well located in the heart of Greyton close to everything.

"Wonderful stay."

We really enjoyed our stay. It was a cold and rainy weekend and we spent our time around the fireplace. It was so cosy and warm.

"Very comfortable, and easy to check in."

All necessary amenities and comforts. Very satisfied with our stay! Thank you. Could've provided more candles/lighting options for load shedding - or if they were available, it wasn't obvious where to find them.

"Centrally located and well-equipped although could do with a little more upkeep."

We enjoyed our stay in this spacious, clean, well-equipped house which is centrally located. Although, some aspects need some care to raise the standard. Karin was great with regular communication prior to our arrival. The gas stove is also a plus with load shedding.

"Enjoyable, comfortable. The house and garden need maintenance."

The house was conveniently located, well equipped, clean and largely comfortable. The owner was friendly and helpful. The garden and house could do with a bit of a makeover and we occasionally had a noisy generator from a neighbour. Otherwise, it was good.

"It is a beautiful old house, we had a great stay. It is indeed rustic, but well equipped."

It might be a good idea to have tea, coffee and sugar available. Otherwise we had a very nice stay. Just be aware that small dogs can slip out of the yard, there are a few places by the gate at the garage where they can crawl under.

"Lovely old house with all you could need for a comfortable stay, whether having a braai or reading beside the fire."

Just off the main road, with a view of it, and the mountains beyond. Close enough to the main stretch for everything to be within walking distance. And just far enough back for peace and quiet.

"Perfect location in town, the house has everything that you would need and more."

Beautiful house, love the layout. You don't need to drive anywhere, you walk from home to the whole town. Stunning MTB and hiking trails. Really worth a visit. The house is great value for money.

"Very beautiful and perfect for family and friends."

Nice and safe, good value for money and clean.

"A relaxing laidback stay, perfect for all!"

We were looking for a relaxing laidback weekend away and we got one! We loved the spacious house we stayed at with its wrap around stoep area, lovely for all including children and a doggie. The house is also close to the popular Saturday Market and we could walk everywhere. The restaurants are great too. Next time in Greyton we would definitely book the same house again. Thank you, to our friendly Hosts!

"Very quiet and perfectly located. Walking distance to everything."

The visit of a herd of horses was the icing on the cake for the children.

"Very nice stay."

Good location and adequate facilities. Few small things that need attention which we pointed out directly to agent. Nothing serious.

"I really enjoyed my stay. Would definitely recommend."

The only issue I had is that we were told that we could leave at 2pm the afternoon. The day we were supposed to leave the cleaner came at 10am to start cleaning. She said we had to leave by 1pm. It just made everything awkward and it made us feel a bit like we being kicked out. Other than that it was a lovely experience.

"Relaxing with a feast of fun things to do."

The house is nice and central and you can walk wherever you want to go. It is neat, spacious and comfortable, while the sun room and the verandas spoil you for options where you can drink a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. Many thanks to Karin for her advice and support during our stay. We can't wait to go back!

"Lovely weekend spent on the verandah overlooking the village market and mountain."

A very homey, relaxing environment that feels like visiting an old family home.

"Had a great time in the comfortable house, location is excellent for walking everywhere."

House is well equipped (also with washing machine and dishwasher). It does lack maintenance, DStv does not work and the garden is not safe to keep pets in.

"It was a wonderful stay."

The location was absolutely perfect, the beds clean and comfy and the kitchen well equipped. We loved our stay.

"Excellent experience."

The house behind the church, which is like a parsonage with a covered porch three quarters around the house, comfortable furnishings without any pretension, available facilities including barbecue outside and fireplace inside, and real lock-and-go. One small problem: 4 days were too short to explore everything properly in Vader's time.

"We had an amazing time and the guesthouse was an ideal stay."

The guesthouse had everything we needed. We only had to take food and our towels. It was clean and tidy. During the winter months maybe more wood should be provided. We will stay there anytime again. Thank you for introducing us to this gem.

"Lovely place."

We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely book again.

"Fantasy house. Perfect for a large family. We had a nice time."

Very comfortable house. Perfect location and very good value for the price. We will definitely stay there again.

"Had a great time. The peacefulness was the best."

We, that is my wife and I, and the family really enjoyed having the big house to ourselves. Grandson loving scooting around the wraparound "stoep".

"Lovely porch for visiting."

Delicious, relaxing visit with all the necessities.

"Comfortable, beautiful and practical living house for our weekend getaway."

We had a great time in this house with its old world charm and trendy jacket, with all the amenities needed and well located to explore the town on foot and just opposite the Saturday market. Greyt House is clearly a home for the owners and you immediately feel at home there, thanks also to the friendly directions and information. By the way, we were very grateful for the electric blankets and fireplace on the porch on probably the coldest weekend of the winter. Snow lay thick on the mountains.

"Nice home away from home. Restful. Picturesque vistas."

Very nice stay. Location is great, centrally located. Beautiful garden, beautiful house. Looking forward to the next time there! All worries disappear when you drive through the gates and park your car.

"Excellent location and good value for money"

The property is excellently located. It was not once necessary for us to get into a car until we had to drive home again. The house needs some attention here and there, but everything was very clean. The garden needs attention.

"We had a lovely time in Greyton and at Greyt cottage. "

It is very spacious, perfect for social distancing and perfectly situated in the village. A big thank you to the owner and manager of the house who go the extra mile to help you with anything you need. Will be back for sure.

"Greyton is an awesome place to visit!"

The house is slightly expensive for what you get. Very basic. But still cozy and a great location!

"Perfect for friends."

The house was so quaint and sweet, perfect for a group of friends. The location was brilliant, right in the middle of town. Great value for money. It was the perfect place to stay the night before we did the Greyton-McGregor hike as they allow one-night bookings.

"The location was great, you can walk to nearby shops and restaurants. Will definitely go again. "

The house has a great views and outside braai with a nice stoep where everyone can sit together. The comfortable beds are good. Will definitely go again.

"Wonderful host, clean and comfy and allows pets which is perfect for us."

Our host was always friendly, willing to please and attended quickly to queries. It was a privilege to stay in this lovely old house. Really enjoyed sitting on the front porch for breakfast and drinks. Our dogs were able to roam freely in the garden and they had just as much fun in Greyton!

"Tranquil and relaxing but bathroom facilities are limited for a full house. "

We had a good stay and, considering the fact that it is a very old house (walls badly cracked with paint that comes off, windows and exterior doors that are badly rusted, cabinets that smell musty, etc.) generally many complaints or criticisms. Some lights were dead, a hot water tap in one of the bathrooms could not open and the mixer tap in the kitchen was broken and leaked badly. These defects were somewhat annoying, but did not greatly affect our stay. What is a major deficit is a second shower. The ad is misleading here. The ad is talking about a family bathroom serving the second and third bedrooms. I would say the logical deduction is that a family bathroom will contain a bath, shower, basin and toilet and not just a bath and the rest. We were six people who all preferred to shower and assumed there were two showers that were not the case at the time. It definitely was a problem. The fireplace was a winner.

"Cycling weekend in Greyton."

This house is in the perfect location for a weekend in Greyton. Greyton was so cold the weekend we were there, but the beds had electric blankets and once the indoor fire was lit we all gathered around it in the evenings. Accommodation is basic, but the location is fantastic and our teens loved it as they could ride their bikes around Greyton from the house easily. The hosts were great and super in every way of communication. The boys locked us out of the house and they did everything they could to rescue us as fast as possible. We would definitely visit again.

"It is a very nice, spacious and well-equipped house, but really needs paint and attention urgently."

This is a house with incredible potential and we really enjoyed our weekend. This home has a lot to offer, but we found it to be tired and could do with some paint and renovation. One of our guests saw a rat/big mouse running in the kitchen early Sunday morning (+/- 2 am) which disappeared under the fridge! Maybe the owners can look into this?

"Good, but expected a little more."

A Big and comfortable house with a good location. The needs to be renovated though. Some of the windows can't close properly and one of the fans didn't work. The fridge/freezer is too small for long stays. There were fleas on the one couch in the living room. A lot of flies in the kitchen because of the horse/cow manure on the gras by the back door because the fence is not secure and the animals can come in. The ceiling fan in the main bedroom didn't work. Our time in Greyton had enough things to do and the restaurants were great.

"Bad first impression!"

When we first entered the house, everything seemed fine until we started unpacking in the kitchen. The fridge was filthy and had not been cleaned from previous occupants. The deep freeze had spillage in, microwave wasn't clean and had food spills in. The dishwasher had been unpacked, but also had food spillage all over the sides. The bathrooms were much to be desired. The shower was filthy. The house was definitely not cleaned prior to our arrival. The only thing that was clean was the bedding. The gardener was there after we had checked the house and asked him to call the cleaning lady back. A different lady arrived and we were promptly told that they were not told that we were coming and thus didn't clean the house. This is unacceptable, we booked this house in August 2018 already. Furthermore, all the rooms had left over alcohol bottles from new years. We removed them all and put them in the kitchen. The kitchen was full of empty boxes. The cleaner should have removed all this rubbish. The house is in serious need of maintenance, cracked walls, broken mats, etc. In the main room, we had one light working. Surely this is supposed to be checked. The blind was broken and laying on the floor, which we put back up again. Fan broken, the list is endless. We paid a lot of money for this house and in terms of what we received, was definitely not worth it. One last thing, when I am on holiday, I certainly do not want to hear grass being cut, etc. I try and get away from it all, so having the gardener come and work while people are in the house is unacceptable to us. I understand he has a job to do, why didn't he do it when people weren't occupying the house?

"A lovely weekend house where we could rest and walk in Greyton's mountains. Would definitely recommend!"

I would definitely recommend Greyt House to people who want to find peace of mind. A neat, lovely holiday home with everything you need. We will definitely visit you again!

"Peace itself. "

We were lucky enough to sleep in Greyt for three days. I could never understand how one could sit on a patio and do nothing, but in this house it was almost all I wanted to do. There was a very nice breeze that cooled us off. We took our mountain bikes and rode the trails around Greyton and would recommend the Genandendal walk.

"Lovely stay in the most beautiful town."

We enjoyed the house because it is so cosy and very well located in the town. The accommodation is very clean and spacious.

"Home from home."

Would recommend this to anyone, very central.

"Everything was perfect!"

Everything was perfect, house was ideal for our family and the owner was very helpful and friendly.

"Family friendly house with everything we needed."

Greyt House was perfect for our family: plenty of space, electric blankets and a fireplace, well-equipped kitchen and right in the middle of town. It's nothing fancy, but it suited us down to the ground.

"Lovely spacious house, perfect for kids!"

We had a great stay over the weekend - the house is so spacious which was perfect with two kids and two dogs running around. We loved all the different seating areas - stoep, braai area, tree swing - and it was so peaceful sitting on the stoep and watching the world go by with those beautiful mountains in the background. The house was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed and we loved the chess set and other games provided which kept the kids amused in the mornings. Easy walk into town or down to the reserve, perfect location.

"Very convenient."

Very nice stay. The owner communicated well and key arrangements were very well organized.

"Very neat and clean house."

You don't need anything more than what this home offers, in terms of self-catering, to experience an unforgettable weekend in Greyton.

"Very pleasant."

Beautiful view of the mountains. Thank you, nice stay.

"Wonderful, relaxing weekend."

Just what you need on a regular basis.

"Excellent venue for family gathering."

Comfortable and well positioned to enjoy the best of Greyton.

"It is an old house that needs a little with of TLC but it is very neat and clean and in the middle of town."

There are a few things that didn't work 100% and some cooking equipment in the kitchen that was unnecessary. Otherwise, it was a great weekend and we had a good time.

"Amazing house; perfect location; great value for money"

Our stay at Greyt House was simply sublime. The house is extremely spacious with lovely entertainment areas. The wrap-around patio is lovely for afternoon tea or evening drinks. The house is old, so don't expect modern furnishings. The place is, however, clean and tidy. The bedding is lovely! The location is perfect - you are walking distance from everything in town and super close to the amazing Saturday market. I would certainly recommend a stay here.

"It was an amazing venue for a weekend of hiking!"

The Greyton House Self-catering accommodation is truly a lovely venue. Situated in a quiet street, though in the middle of the town, near the Saturday market, it is a lovely place to unwind. The house is very spacious with a lovely garden and old leivoor running through. We could even take our well trained house dog! Lovely bedding! Beautiful roses!

"Nice big house, centrally located."

We had a wonderful stay. It was bitterly cold this weekend. Don't know what we would have done without the electric blankets. Thank you very much!

"Best weekend in Greyton."

Thanks Karen for a lovely weekend. The house is beautifully equipped and ideal for a weekend away. Although it's quite old, it's very neat, cosy and perfectly situated. It's the ideal place for a holiday with a group of people.
