75 guests' feedbackWanda and Johann were really the nicest people, privacy, beautiful and perfectly located.
A fantastic experience!
This is a beautiful place in the heart of the town. Each cottage is private and has a lovely outdoor sitting area. Inside is spacious yet cozy and very well equipped and very tidy. I can highly recommend this place.
Was even more beautiful than in the photos - Hostess' customer service and welcome was great - She made us feel at home straight away and they really go "the extra mile". The directions to get there were easy - Kol Kol fire bath is a winner - She also provided us with a list of activities and things to do in the area - We will definitely be visiting again, this time only for longer!
One night is far too short to fully enjoy all possibilities.
Absolutely fabulous.
For sure! Of the many places we've stayed, this might be the first time we couldn't think of anything that could be improved. The private pool and hot tub is definitely a winner.
This is a beautiful place to stay. Lovely private dipping pool and hot tub. Great braai facilities and relaxation areas. The bed is very comfortable, the kitchen is well-equipped with lots of thoughtful and tasteful touches. There is a beautiful vegetable garden and shop items available. Great indoor and outdoor showers. Close to town but very secure and private too. The only small downside was in very hot weather it is difficult to get the room temperature down to a level that is comfortable enough to sleep deeply, especially when mosquitoes are around. Maybe a ceiling fan in addition to the portable fan would help, as I think installing effective air conditioning would require a lot of work to seal the room/windows effectively. Other than that, a very nice place to stay in Montagu with fantastic hosting by Wanda and Johann.
Fabulously appointed cottage with meticulous care taken by the hosts over every detail from a welcome drink to farm eggs, rusks and even warm gowns for the chilly mornings. The outdoor area is wonderful for relaxing in the sunshine or enjoying a braai. I would highly recommend!
Lovely cottage that is very well equipped. I wanted to stay longer. Will definitely go back.
It was a special stay - actually more than just accommodation, it's a whole experience! We stayed in the Olive unit. It was neat and very clean. The bedding and towels are top quality. The rusks and farm fresh eggs were a hit. Very well equipped and really felt like a Little Karoo house, only with all the nice modern things that make one relax comfortably. 5 out of 5!
We loved this place, very friendly hosts that personally welcomed us in. Cosy, comfortable and luxurious cottage.
Can't help but give full marks. Incredible place. Have fun. No loadshedding experienced. Thank you Wanda.
We absolutely loved our weekend in Montagu. This is definitely my new favourite place to stay in Montagu. Such beautiful decor within the house and amazing hosts that make you feel so welcome! We will definitely be back!
Wanda's attention to the smallest details is remarkable! Luxurious and relaxing! Would love to visit Olivestone Farm Cottages again! Luxury! Fantastic! The perfect romantic getaway, winter or summer!
Incredibly well equipped cottages with all the extras.
We had a wonderful stay, everything was perfect: the amenities, the KolKol hot tub, and the accommodation were all top-notch.
We went to Montagu for a 50th birthday, and stayed at Olive Stone. The cottages are really very nice and comfortable and close to everything. We're just sorry we didn't have enough time to use the hot tub, will definitely have to go back! Can wholeheartedly recommend it.
There are few self-catering "cottages" in South Africa where the owners put so much effort into creating a fantastic stay experience.
Quiet, beautiful and elegant.
I would recommend it anytime.
The location of Olive Stone is perfectly situated, accommodation in town but on a farm. You can walk anywhere and feel safe at all times. The cottages have only the best inside, from linen to everything you need in the house, biscuits, coffee, milk and enough wood for the fire and fireplace. The hostess, Wanda, is excellent and we will definitely stay here again.
Offers everything you would need for a weekend away.
Beautiful, hospitable and peaceful place.
Quality accommodation, everything was perfect, friendly owners.
Beautifully designed, furnished & decorated cottage, attention to detail (everything you need plus much more), super comfy bed, private, stunning location, friendly hosts (and animals), all the special touches (outside shower, spaces to nap/read, antique fireplace, fresh roses, farm eggs, veggie garden). Olive Stone ticks all the boxes for a perfect self-catering break and is one of my top self-catering places in SA. Highly recommend this little gem!
Olive Stone creates a wonderful farm feel and complements the small town feel very well. Wanda and Johan received us very well and always helped out with any query.
The houses are perfect, neat, fantastic shower and outdoor shower, wonderful bed with pure white linen, great coffee and braai area with a splash pool. Wanda and Johan are the perfect host and hostess. You see us again!
Olive Stone exceeded our wildest expectations! It's beautifully furnished with everything you need for a romantic holiday - the splash pool and wooden "pod" in the garden create a wonderful atmosphere. It feels like you are staying at your own place. Come and enjoy the quiet and privacy in the heart of Montagu, a beautiful town with so many things to do and experience. We will definitely visit again. Wanda and her husband made us feel so welcome with treats such as fresh milk, organic eggs, biscuits and access to the vegetable garden.
We felt very welcone by Wanda! We had a lovely weekend and could not be happier with the accommodation!
Beautiful place. We enjoyed our stay with our fur kid that was also welcome. Great place to visit.
If you want to spoil yourself, book this cottage, you will not regret it! The cottage is beautiful and with the amount of detail inside, the host has really thought of everything. Hooks to hang wet towels or swimsuits, nice towels and enough towels, nice soaps and lotion. A nice hot outside shower, while listening to the bird. The plunge pool is in such a beautiful setting, cool and refreshing we even used it in the rain. We had farm eggs and homemade rusks waiting for us on arrival. We didn't grill but regretted it, you will also find a nice big outside-covered dining room table if you do decide to grill. This will also be a perfect "honeymoon" cottage as it is completely private with a wall around it. One of my top stays ever and definitely one I will go back to even if I have to make a special trip to Montagu! Lastly, do not book just one evening, you will regret it!
Very nice, love the detail in the cottage. Will definitely go back again.
Olive Stone's "attention to detail" is remarkable, really felt like 5 star quality accommodation we will definitely be back again. The farm products, for example olive oil and eggs are also great. Highly recommended.
We enjoyed every moment. The cottages are private, very well furnished and practically laid out. Will definitely visit again.
It's been a long time since I can say that a stay was perfect. This is one of those times. Our unit had so many personal touches that just made everything feel special. The fact that it's pet friendly is a huge bonus. Loved the stay, I wish it was longer.
Even though we only stayed one night, we left feeling renewed. The farm is beautiful and the house is truly incredibly beautiful and wonderfully equipped. Coziness and luxury in one living space.
The cottage is very beautiful - it is simple, but beautifully built and very well looked after. Wanda made us feel very welcome, and well pampered. If you are looking for a nice getaway for you and your partner, I would definitely recommend it.
Thank you so much Wanda, you made us feel so welcome!
The cottage and entire farm setting are beautiful. The warm welcome by Wanda set this magical experience. The accommodation is faultless with attention to detail, comfort, privacy, and peace. The stunning private plunge pool is very special. And being able to harvest fresh produce from the edible garden was superb. Wanda was incredibly accommodating with personal requests and her warmth and kindness added to our awesome experience. We plan to return, hopefully very soon!
A wonderful break with my mother and daughters (girls' weekend). Olive Stone Farm & Cottage is just one fantastic getaway spot with the most delicious swimming pool and Wanda goes out of her way to make your visit very special!
We had such a great stay at Olive Stone for our wedding anniversary. The cottage is fantastically equipped with everything you need. The outdoor dining room and plunge pool were definitely a highlight as was the outdoor shower. We would definitely go again and can't recommend it enough! Farm life in town has never been so fun.
Very central, close to everything and hospitable. Nice stay.
We enjoyed the layout and the location of Olive stone cottage! Here we switched off and just experienced the uniqueness and beauty!
We wanted for nothing. The attention to detail in the cottage is superb. It is totally private. We didn't use the pool (too cold) but the water is crystal clear. The indoor fire, albeit a bit "smokey", was amazing as was the small braai outside. The hosts are first class. It was a fabulous weekend away.
Very nice and neat. Fully equipped with nothing missing. Good location with nice view. Private and very relaxing.
This is one of the best self-catering stays we've ever enjoyed. The accommodation is superb, the comfort is outstanding, and the hosts are wonderfully friendly and obliging. We were provided with farm-fresh eggs, vegetables from the garden and olive oil from the farm to use in our cooking. We would love to spend a week here, exploring the surrounding country. Next time!
So many beautiful thoughts that make the cottage and the stay just unforgettable, from picking vegetables from the garden to eat, to taking a shower under the stars in the outdoor light. Fireplace in winter was a big treat. Will definitely want to visit Olive Stone Farm and Cottages again.
We wish we could've stayed longer. The house had everything we needed and the outside area is beautiful. Thanks Andrew and Elaine. Your animals are also beautiful.
Had a great time. Wonderful fireplaces in the houses that made the stay nice and cozy in the cold.
The houses were built with a lot of love and planning. It's all the little things that matter and there are a lot of them. It is a must to sleep there if Montagu is on your route.
Al's was perfect, neat and clean! Beautiful place and wonderful people! We will definitely go again!
We had a great time, swam in the beautiful pool and Andrew went out of his way to set a table for us in the evening with beautiful plates and silverware, so that we and our friends could have a barbecue together that evening. I will definitely visit there again!
Olive Stone Farm and Cottages is tucked away in between the beautiful olive trees in Montagu! The perfect getaway not too far from Cape Town. We loved the cosy fireplace for the cold winter evening and the fresh farm eggs for breakfast, such a gem in Montagu!
What an incredibly beautiful place! We will definitely go back.
Warm welcoming hosts. Excellent cottage. Amazingly constructed. Extremely comfortable.
Was all over the country - this is the best ever! Jacobs coffee, honey, fresh eggs and milk were a nice bonus! On the farm but within walking distance of great eateries and shops in town!
Very friendly welcome, beautiful spacious cottage with private front garden and lovely splash pool. Had such a great time here and relaxed, and can't wait to go back. Don't leave until you've tasted and bought some of their homemade cheese and olive oil! From the books! A real oasis in the licorice - and can highly recommend!
We had a lovely stay in Olive Cottage. Als was clean and the house is beautiful. Furniture nicely painted. Bed slept well. Fresh eggs and milk. Everything you need is there. Thank you very much.
Our visit to Montagu, with specific reference to our accommodation in the Olive Cottage, was off the books! The farm is in the middle of the town, yet you experience a wonderful farm feeling. The mountain view beyond the olive groves was beautiful, and not to mention the little spring water that creates a peaceful atmosphere. My husband and I had fun greeting the geese, chickens and cattle as we walked through the orchards on our way to the vegetable garden where we could help ourselves to fresh produce. Our little house was beautifully tidy, and for me perfectly decorated with the loveliest bedding and appropriate furniture. The fireplace was deliciously cozy and the fresh eggs and milk magically soothed us in the morning. To top it all off, I washed my hands extra often with the nice soaps and creams that were there. Everything was just super beautiful and super delicious. So many thanks to the friendly owners and also the website. We will definitely be back to test out the outdoor barbecue and splash pool in the summer.
Really good accommodation, pool , braai, WiFi, generous hosts, well furnished, nice bed and linen, good location, secure, friendly and helpful staff. Well worth a return visit. Would recommend to anyone visiting the area.
What an exceptional experience. The images doesn't do any justice to how exquisite Olive Stone Farm really is. You are in the centre of the little town, yet feel that you are somewhere out in the middle of nowhere. Everything you need is available in the cottage and the fact that you can help yourself to a little veggie garden, and get fresh milk from the wandering cow means that you don't have to leave this tranquil space at all. The bed is super comfy (which is always a plus) and the fire place makes it so cosy and nostalgic. We regret only staying for one night, but hope to be back real soon and to stay a little longer! Definitely highly recommend this gem in Montagu!
What was nice is that even though you feel like you are on a remote farm in the middle of nowhere, the shops and all tourist attractions are a walking distance from you. The security and privacy is amazing. The facilities and overall stay was so fantastic, they really look after you.
We were so pleasantly surprised that we immediately asked the owners if we could book an extra night. Without a doubt they said yes, but we had to move to another unit. When we came back in the afternoon after a day out, they pulled all our stuff and nothing was gone. Even had our clothes washed at no cost and hung up for us. This is fantastic service. The cottage is so safe you can sleep with your doors and windows open. And on a hot day, the splash pool is great to cool off in. Will definitely go again.
We were looking for a peaceful getaway and were surprised with more than just a peaceful getaway. Stylish with extras we didn't expect. Olive Stone Farm and Cottages is definitely a bucket list item!
Was one of the best getaways that we had in a long time. Truly enjoyed it a lot.
Unbelievable accommodation and atmosphere.
Charming cottage, peaceful location, wish we had stayed longer.
Incredible destination. Everything is there that one needs for a break away from the city. But also lots of extras like farm eggs, fresh cow's milk and access to herb and vegetable garden. Also daily wood for fireplace and braai. Well done Elaine. We will be back.
Fantastic stay. My wife and I really enjoyed the tranquil yet central location. We loved the cottage architecture. It was clean and safe and the owners were always around for a chat. We will definitely be back.
Don't make the mistake of staying here for just one night! Andrew and Elaine have created something wonderful here. One will be able to stay here for a week and rest properly. Literally one of the best places we have stayed at. The cottages are among hundreds of olive trees, the shower outside is among the olive trees, you can swim in a pond that pumps river water and you eat fresh salad from their own vegetable garden. The next morning, Andrew provides fresh eggs from the chickens on the farm. Much more beautiful than in the photos. Will recommend for sure.
We really enjoyed our time at Olive Stone Farm. The house is very nice, practically laid out, well equipped, neat and clean. Andrew and Elaine immediately made us feel at home with their hospitality. There was fresh farm milk and farm eggs in the fridge for us to use. We were also able to pick lettuce in their vegetable garden. You don't feel like you are in the village at all, the cow and sheep often grazed in the field in front of our house. We enjoyed the outdoor shower and splash pool to cool off in the heat. If you go to Montagu, you must stay here. You will not regret it!
Especially beautiful. Elegant. Very practically laid out. Silver clean. Warm welcome. Olive Stone is a 'blueprint' for other guest farms.
We were very surprised with the layout of the place, if there is what one needs. We really liked the 'attention to detail' and felt very special when there was fresh farm milk and eggs (brings me back to the countryside as a child). The outdoor light shower was heavenly, especially for a late night shower under the stars. Plekkie is very centrally located, you are in the town, but also not in the town. Very cozy feeling and the place is also private. Will definitely visit them again.
The little placd is neatly equipped with everything you need and more. Ideal for a getaway if you need to relax. There is a veggie garden where you can help yourself with lettuce, tomatoes etc. The free range chickens produce eggs and there is even a dairy cow (we sommer called her "Daisy") for fresh farm milk in the fridge. Couldn't have asked for a better place for some R&R.
