The accommodation was designed to cater to the varied needs of visitors to the area. Many guests attend weddings at nearby venues, so need a place to spend the night. Others are looking for a break from the city and want to absorb the fresh air, tranquillity and beautiful surroundings. The abundance of exciting activities in the area also attract those who would like to take a few days out to have some fun with friends and family. The guest house was started in 2003, and has a typical French country-style ambience which suites the beautiful surroundings.
La Bastide offers 2 self-catering cottages and 6 guest rooms, which in total can host between 18 to 25 guests. They are all unique in interior and exterior spacing and design, and are fondly named after the nature found on their doorstep. The cottages are ideal for the weekend travellers, or for those who come for longer periods to relax and recharge. Each cottage has its own private entertainment space, and there are also several communal spaces for larger groups to get together. The guest rooms are ideal for those who stay for 1 night, or for those who tend to visit the area for a quick country getaway, weddings, cycling races, hot air balloon rides, and other interesting activities. There is a swimming pool for guests to use.

156 guests' feedbackWe had an awesome stay at Lavender Cottage at La Bastide. Nice and peaceful. Very clean and everything you needed in the cottage.
Will definitely stay there again, everything was fantastic.
La Bastide is a beautiful clean unit. Got much more than we expected. Zodwa is an avg. The scenery and mountains give tranquility. Will go back again anytime. Location is also ideal.
We experienced a few things that need to be fixed. The basin was loose. The wooden face cloth rack is loose. We saw a few spiders in the room and bathroom. The globe outside on the stairs is dark, making it a bit difficult to use the stairs at night. We could not use the WiFi as it was only available in certain rooms. So those were the only minor issues.
Rooms and bathrooms very neat and clean. Some of the rooms look better than in photos, so suspect there have been recent improvements. Nice play area for children and large lawn for picnics. Milk and bottles of water in fridges were pleasant. Maybe just look at salt and pepper shaker refills. But really enjoyed it.
Very nice and cute places. Just a cold place, so take your slippers.
I had problems with communication. TV didn't work at all, but I was told 3 times that someone was on their way to fix it, but no one showed up. Certain wall plugs suddenly didn't work, even though the lights were on. Only later received the message that it was loadshedding. It was unpleasant to report every time and nothing happens.
We love coming here. Really value for money. We only have an issue with the ants. It becomes unpleasant but other than that, the place is really great.
We had a wonderful peaceful stay at La Bastide Lavender cottage. What a beautiful place. The gardens are spectacular, the facilities were good. The pool was lovely. The view of the mountain is incredible. Perfect place if you are wanting to do a trip around Harties Dam.
We had a very pleasant stay in the Sky Room. The room was a bit cold, but they provided heating blankets for the evening, so we were not uncomfortable. The premises are well kept and nice for family activities, including a play area for children. I did have a problem with contacting the establishment in the weeks leading up to our stay. However, during our stay they were accessible and very helpful.
Had a wonderful stay. Just a few leaky and broken faucets that need fixing.
Beautiful surroundings and housing. Recommendation: Directions about where each unit is needed. There are no on-site indications of where your booked unit is. There is also no reception on site. Other than that, everything is beautiful. Thank you.
Second time with you.
The area is beautiful. Unfortunately our unit was not clean. Reported it but received no feedback.
No. Had trouble getting in and had to wait outside in main road for several minutes as no one was on duty. No one received us. The sleeping pillows had an unpleasant smell. No hot water. No one answered the phone to solve the water problem. Vehicle was not secure.
Room was very clean, spacious and comfortable. Bedding was fresh and clean. It was a very cold night and the heater warmed up the room nice and quickly and a warm blanket on the bed.
Had a nice, peaceful weekend away. Place was nice and clean. Will definitely stay there again.
David was great at informing me on certain aspects regarding my stay at La Bastide. Zodwa prepared the electric blanket before we got ready for bed as well as charged the light for us way before load shedding hit the area, I'm so impressed, amazed and blessed to have encountered such amazing souls at La Bastide, the place is so tranquil. I would definitely go back there again.
We have stayed at La Bastide several times and have never been disappointed. We have noticed that some improvements have been made. This is truly a guest house that we will visit again and again and also recommend. Nowhere else can you find so much comfort in simplicity, the most beautiful garden and view and lots of peace and quiet. See you again soon!
Just a suggestion. Perhaps the website could also mention that there are stairs to the unit. I had a knee replacement and my wife also has knee problems and it was a bit difficult to get up there. However, the staff were very helpful and helped with the bags. David was very hospitable and helpful.
Had an amazing 3 days at La Bastide in the lavender cottage. The cottage was clean and spacious. Really enjoyed the view as the gardens are well kept. Totally relaxed while I was there with nobody. bothering us. It's close to all the activities you want. Big thanks to Zodwa for looking after us so well. One of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept on. Would highly recommend this place to everyone.
A very nice and affordable little gem, just far away from everything for a peaceful breakaway and yet close enough to activities when you need some action. The staff were true gems, Zodwa and Pedro were always available to help with a smile on their faces. Truly recommend the place.
Love farm environment, safe feeling, fresh air.
The only problem was that the owners and staff are not with the staff after 17.00. This makes it slightly difficult to locate the particular house as the houses are not marked. The owner sent a message during the week to see inbook before 17.00. In my opinion this is something that should be mentioned before booking as many people work and cannot be there that early.
Very nice visit, well located, definitely worth it. Birdlife and nightlife charming with a fire. Clean and tidy. Housekeeping was very helpful. Lovely 2 - 3 km walk in the area. Although there was a nice coffee machine there was no coffee for the filter coffee machine. However, there were bags of coffees, tea and sugar. Thank you very much, your porch is lovely, would like to have the option of a log on the fire. Housekeeping was very nice to help.
Thank you very much for beautiful facility. Only point of criticism and possible recommendation may stem from discomfort to move in and out of the estate. System around opening and closing of main gate is not completely effective.
Everything we saw online is what we got. They assisted us with everything we needed.
The staff were friendly and very helpful. The way in and out can only become a problem if two vehicles have to pass each other.
Road directions easy to follow. Friendly welcome. Clean room, bedding and towels. Lovely hot shower on a bitterly cold night.
Nice location. Safe. Close to all Harties' 'attractions'.
The gardens and the unit are gorgeous. The shower is dark and dirty with black mold everywhere. Shower head hardly works and hot water comes and goes. The kitchen is poorly stocked with only a few white sugar, black tea and coffee sachets in dirty, old, broken, plastic tubs. No washing up stuff to clean the 2 coffee cups for morning coffee. Water sits in rusty sink with only a hot water tap. Dusty, dark and cold, but at least there is an oil heater which helps. Hand soap and cream nearly empty in bathroom.
Lovely place with many birds that create a peaceful atmosphere and rooms are nice and big and very tidy.
Lazy environment!
Loved my stay. the place was clean and tidy, the kitchen had everything we needed. The gardens are beyond stunning and to hear all the birds and see the most beautiful owls was an extra bonus.
Unfortunately, the swimming pool was a bit green due to all the rain. But we loved every moment and would go back anytime. I will definitely recommend La Bastide.
It had everything that we needed. Wish we could have stayed for more than 1 night. Would highly recommend La Bastide. Friendly staff.
We were well received and made to feel welcome. Very neat and clean.
It's a really cute place to stay, especially for exploring Hartebeespoort Dam or if you just need a place to stay for booking Bill Harrops' hot air balloon excursion! They are about 7 km from the check-in point, conveniently close.
Well located. Neat, clean and everything we needed.
Everything you need to relax.
Very nice stay. Provision made for warm blanket in master bedroom. Als is neat and clean. Would recommend La Bastide for sure. Thank you!
See stars.
Very neat unit. Well equipped and beautiful garden.
Thanks for the good service! It was perfect.
Friendly service. Immediately felt welcome. Unit was clean and tidy.
Definitely the perfect place to rest. Only nature around you. Beautiful gardens!
Nice location. Good help. Nice place.
It's a very comfortable place, nice and cool under the trees. Everything you need for an overnight stay is there. It's close to many activities in Harties. Very peaceful atmosphere.
So much more than I expected! I stayed here the evening before my wedding and was surprised with this little gem. The scenery is beautiful and the little unit we stayed in is clean and cosy. The staff is friendly and helpful. I truly enjoyed my stay!
Sky room. Microwave only. No cutlery or crockery.
Wonderful getaway for a relaxing and peaceful time off.
The staff was very friendly and saw to our every need. The view and gardens were food for the soul. Unfortunately it rained all weekend. The bathroom flooded due to a broken pipe.
Cell phone reception was just bad, which made us struggle to contact owners to open gate.
It's our second time here, once in a room and once in the self-catering unit. It's very cute and value for money. Maybe only intimate cleaning can be looked at (cobwebs in the corner of the wall and dead ants behind the bed) can see there was an ant problem, we also had ant eggs by the bedside table etc. (don't know if it fell from the roof). Furthermore, it was very nice and very beautiful! Will definitely book there again. Lots of lawn for kids and play area (could be washed off a bit, very full of dust) but very cute spot for a quick getaway.
Very good and recommendable for the price paid, very well located and easily accessible. Skeerpoort is a beautiful and tree-rich area.
Had a pleasant visit.
Suitable for a quick getaway and close to home but feeling like you are far from home.
We missed having Rooibos tea, there was only Ceylon tea, no dustbin in the bedrooms, all doors were very squeaky and noisy when opening and closing, handwash soap in bathroom was finished and the single beds were very creaky.
Beautiful and neat place. Zodwa welcomed us kindly. We really enjoyed the stay, so attention can only be paid to the quality of the mattresses.
We will definitely be visiting as soon as we can, there was so much to see and do. It was a pleasant experience and getaway. Thank you very much for having us as guests.
In nature. It was very beautiful and peaceful. Will use them again.
It was a lovely getaway, a beautiful place and perfectly located for our wedding. We would definitely recommend it!
Our bathroom had no place to put soap or shampoo, it was uncomfortable. Hatch above headboard is a very cute idea but lets in too much light in the early morning.
We stayed in Lavender, private with a nice view and right by the pool. Ruth was very friendly and helpful. Clean with everything you would need, can't wait to come back!
Room is very neat and clean. Very peaceful and will visit again.
See stars.
I really enjoyed my short stay.
Such a beautiful place in a great location. Loved our short stay.
Service was awesome, we arrived later and the people still helped us nicely to our place and they were so friendly. The place was neat, clean and spacious. Slept so well, the beds were amazing. Thank you very much.
Friendly reception and my room was exceptionally neat, clean and very beautiful. The garden gives you a peaceful feeling and I got exactly what I was looking for, peace and quiet and well-deserved rest. I will definitely go back to La Bastide.
It's the kind of place you always want to go back to and wonder if such peace and safety really still exists.
Room we stayed in (Honesuckle) was very comfortable. Room had a heater and electric blanket on the bed, so we could keep warm. The basic cutlery was also provided, such as a microwave, kettle, plates, glasses and knives and forks ─ all we needed for a quick break away. The views from the patio are stunning, we could park right next to our unit which was safe and the pool was also very clean and a lovely area to relax. Really enjoyed our stay. Only 1,5 km to Van Gaalen Cheese Farm for lunch and walking trails and not far at all from Aviators pub where we could watch the rugby.
We just stayed the one night. Enjoyed it a lot. It is a very good base from which to explore all the attractions in the area.
We were only there for one night, but will definitely come again.
Beautiful garden in the most beautiful street with an old fashioned charm and a small water stream with lush gardens around you. Everything was perfect!
It was very nice and peaceful. Especially not having contact with other people about Covid19.
The birdlife is great in the quite garden. Very peaceful area.
Great location, great experience.
The room was very nice and clean except the bad odour coming from the pipes which dissipated after running the water a bit.
Advance communication about an ESKOM problem was most appreciated. Excellent customer service. Loved the tranquility.
Suitable place for a quiet weekend with beautiful gardens, even in winter.
Very friendly and helpful staff kept us informed of our booking, made sure we understood the directions and received us. We had a really nice stay, thank you.
Comfortable and everything needed for a quick overnight stay. Very quiet and tidy.
Baie mooi en netjies, goeie diens en gawe mense. Net kommunikeer oor telefoon maar kan glad nie oor die diens kla nie. Perseel is mooi en netjies, baie rustig. Enigste negatiewe ervaring, ons kamer was onder 'n ander een, dis nie 'n probleem nie. Die probleem is dat die boonste kamer houtvloere het. So ons het heeltyd die mense bo ons gehoor praat en selfs elke beweging gehoor, veral as iemand loop natuurlik klink dit verskriklik. Ons kon nie inlê nie, want die mense bo ons was al vroeg op en besig so mens hoor alles. Sal definitief aanbeveel en ons sal selfs teruggaan, net een van die ander kamers boek.
Well located and safe in nice surroundings.
Love the garden, very peaceful.
Nice area, the location and everything is very nice.
It was a relaxing time. A nice place to come back to after daily activities. Quiet and peaceful.
Lovely place, sadly they don't offer something as basic as an iron, leaving me with creased clothes. I cast my eye just underneath my bedside table and there was dust and a spider web. Lastly, some doors made squeaky sounds when you open and close them.
Venue is great, clean, well kept. Had sufficient heating which was a plus, customer service was poor.
Also has insects, mostly spiders and flies, again manageable for a few days but not ideal with little children who are scared of them. Would have liked to see a zapper or something else to help control the problem rather than bug spray which is again not healthy.
I would definitely suggest the place, worth to escape from your busy life and the VIEW is awesome
The place is quite and nice to relax.
Beautiful weekend getaway, relaxing and calming.
This was a beautiful stay and getaway from the city. Relatively close to everything.
Was a beautiful place, will go again for sure.
Will definitely recommend this gem. Loved staying, felt like home away from home.
Our stay was perfect !! One concern with open concept and a view different venues on the same road. Just felt like anyone had access to roam free even if they don't stay at La Bastide. Perhaps also just add another safty door as our door didn't seem to lock very tight and sure that if you whanted to enter, it won't be that difficult. Other than this concern we will defenitly recomend it and even stay ourselves on a next bace.
There was no gas option to make coffee and no battery lights and the power was 90% off over the weekend.
Highly recommended.
Was a very quiet and tidy place to stay, everything was clean and the person who met us to get our keys was very friendly and showed us everything, owners or managers on the phone were also very friendly and helpful
Lots to do in the area. Accommodation is cozy with a beautiful view of the Magaliesberge.
Peaceful and beautiful.
There was a water leak that had already been reported weeks in advance. Room's floor was under water. Staff working there confirmed this. Gate's remote did not work.
We had an awesome time, it was a home away from home. The only problem is the pool wasn’t that clean, so we didn’t swim.
Will definitely visit La Bastide again in the near future.
I am very satisfied. Very friendly and willing to help. Will definitely recommend them.
Very nice and neat place, pleasant people on site and very quiet, peaceful and scenic.
Although there are a few units close together, you are still separate and in a very peaceful environment. The garden is lovely with all the flower beds and different flowers. The lavender bushes are breathtaking! Not something you see every day. Unit inside was lovely with decent furniture and bedding etc. Will definitely stay again.
The hostess received us very kindly, and the house was beautifully clean and tidy. I can confidently recommend them.
See stars.
We were welcomed to the venue by a friendly, gracious host. We had a great stay in the beautiful, quiet and serene La Bastide.
Very pleasant people to talk to. Lovely, tidy place to stay in a stunningly beautiful natural environment. Would definitely recommend for a getaway.
We were in the cute loft room. Very neat with nice pictures on the walls. We slept well. Just 2 bugs that have bothered - the kettle can get a longer cord. I because of the bee hives at the bottom of the stairs.
Very hospitably received by Gwen and her husband. Had a wonderful sleep in a beautiful room. The peaceful atmosphere was a welcome change from usual busy guesthouses. We had a great time. Would definitely recommend and go back if we need to sleep in that area again.
We had a great stay. Gwen is the perfect host. The premises are beautiful and the gardens so tidy and well kept. We would have loved it to stay longer.
Beautiful surroundings. Upper room did not have hot water and the children had to come and shower in our bathroom. Furthermore, we had a great time and it was located close to Green leaves where we attended a wedding.
Clean accommodation with all the necessities. Outside is nice a grassy space and boma for outdoor activities and mountain viewing. Warmly welcomed and accommodated for specific requests. We stayed nice.
Your kindness is much appreciated. Room spacious and clean. Enjoyed our stay a lot.
Lovely place, only downside is rooms are very close to one another.
Found the "cottage" where we stayed very cozy and comfortable.
The cottage was neat and nice and close to the wedding venue.
Beautiful and neat self-catering units. Quiet atmosphere and beautiful gardens. Swimming pool and play area for children. Excellent hospitality.
We were attending a wedding at Green Leaves and I was able to arrange to check in earlier so we could get ready at the guest house for the function which was very convenient. The room was very nice and tidy. The welcome was very warm. Robin, the lady standing in for Gwen, communicated with us from early in the morning to make sure check-in was as quick and easy as possible. We also had trouble sending proof of payment and the owner of the guest house was kind enough to hold the reservation until I could sort out the proof of payment. There were also frequent calls and emails to make sure I was aware of the situation. Great job!
Friendly reception owners helpful and very hospitable.
Great experience, very tidy and Gwen was a wonderful hostess! Will definitely visit them again!
Friendly reception. Rooms were neat and clean, self-catering units had everything needed, beautiful green lawns and lavender bushes everywhere. It was a lovely overnight stay.
Terribly cute cottage with fireplace, braai on porch, DStv for sports, enough heaters to make sure the whole cottage is warm and everything you'll need so you don't have to pack up and bring your entire kitchen. Had a great time away from the city.
See stars.
Place is tidy, well furnished and very friendly, helpful service.
We got there late on Friday (we were running Om die Dam ultra marathon) and Gwen was still awake and as friendly as ever. The place was in tip top condition and we were so pleased to get back after the marathon to find it spic and span again, we had left in a hurry and it was messy when we left! We also asked to stay longer because we were exhausted and once again, this was no problem for Gwen. We eventually left at 15:00!
Lovely owner, very friendly and helpful. The place is cute and typically German and softly furnished. Even coffee, milk and sugar and other goodies were available for use. We had a lovely, peaceful experience and will definitely go again.
I love the place, was absolutely fantastic! Value for money and exceeded all our expectations.
Very comfortable, tidy and beautiful.
One of the cleanest places that I've stayed in, everything was great. I recommend that people try it. It's a great place to spend a weekend.
Nice peaceful atmosphere, clean and tidy and friendly service. I recommend it to anyone.
See stars.
We were a family group of 12 adults attending a wedding in the area. The accommodation was spacious and well appointed. The customer service was great and we will definitely use La Bastide again.
The place has beautiful views and is very neat. I would recommend La Bastide when in the area.
Was very helpful and everything was well organised as requested. The management went out of their way to accommodate us. Can definitely recommend it to any couple that want to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and experience the quietness of the bushveld.
The place is beautiful and calming. I would recommend it to other friends. The hosts were kind and very welcoming. There is only one small issue, the TV didn't play some channels and kept on having issues throughout the weekend.
Refreshing, and peaceful.
Stunning place, pretty decor and you really feel at home! The atmosphere is peaceful and you can breathe for once! Very happy with the service and we slept well! Safe parking, neat rooms and perfect for an overnight stay after a wedding.
Friendly reception. Neat and clean. Everything you need, even a heater and electric blankets for a cozy night. Will definitely book La Bastide again.
Would recommend to anyone who wants to break away a little.
A bit more water pressure would be nice.
Although there is no braai area the owner gave us her portable Weber braai to use, my only disappointment was that there wasn't a TV in the room, however, the time was well used for enjoying the beautiful surroundings.
Very neat. Value for money.
Very quiet and nice place to stay.
Lots of open space for kids with bicycle. Really enjoyed it, good facilities.
Friendly service and good value.
The host was very good to us and she waited for us even though we arrived at the venue after the check in time. I will book the place again.
Very pleasant for a few days of rest, peace and quiet.
When we first walked into the room, we immediately noticed that the cushion covers on the chairs (inside and outside) and the inside bench were stained and dirty. That made me worry about the bed linen. When we went to bed that night, I picked up my pillow only to find a small scorpion underneath it. The room was also infested with spiders. I did not sleep the entire night - I was too worried about what could crawl into bed with me. The shower was also full of cobwebs, so clearly it was not cleaned recently - definitely not before our stay there. I was really not impressed. Also, the walls are very thin - I could hear my neighbour snore the whole night. Definitely not a restful experience. What a waste of my money.

The accommodation was designed to cater to the varied needs of visitors to the area. Many guests attend weddings at nearby venues, so need a place to spend the night. Others are looking for a break from the city and want to absorb the fresh air, tranquillity and beautiful surroundings. The abundance of exciting activities in the area also attract those who would like to take a few days out to have some fun with friends and family. The guest house was started in 2003, and has a typical French country-style ambience which suites the beautiful surroundings.
La Bastide offers 2 self-catering cottages and 6 guest rooms, which in total can host between 18 to 25 guests. They are all unique in interior and exterior spacing and design, and are fondly named after the nature found on their doorstep. The cottages are ideal for the weekend travellers, or for those who come for longer periods to relax and recharge. Each cottage has its own private entertainment space, and there are also several communal spaces for larger groups to get together. The guest rooms are ideal for those who stay for 1 night, or for those who tend to visit the area for a quick country getaway, weddings, cycling races, hot air balloon rides, and other interesting activities. There is a swimming pool for guests to use.
