234 guests' feedbackGreat, clean with friendly hosts.
The place's charm envelops you after a long day of driving. Everything very nice and clean.
Unbelievable, not only the place, but the people too! It is a must for everyone to spend the night there!
Great stay at Valerie's place.
Beautiful place that is very peaceful even though it is located close to everything.
We had a wonderful stay, neat and clean, friendly hosts.
A very warm and comfortable stay on a cold night. I really appreciated the attention to detail in the room (good coffee, milk in the fridge, nice linen, lovely soaps). A perfect overnight stop for us!
Wonderful place and wonderful hosts.
Lovely warm and clean room, kind and helpful host. Would recommend.
We were highly impressed with our stay at Rietjiesbos! We were personally welcomed on our arrival, and greeted again on our departure by Valerie and her husband. The location is prime in town, secure parking behind a controlled gate, and the unit was exactly what we wanted; a bed with sheets and a thin blanket and not just the horrible duvets that everyone suffocates under in the summer! A small kitchen with a not too small fridge, and a beautiful spacious bathroom with a lovely shower which is semi open plan with the sleeping area! This guest house owner certainly understands the need of a one-night overnight traveler on his way from or on his way to the lovely South Cape!
Had a wonderful stay and had a beautiful show of the thunder on the mountains.
Very quiet area and unit is well maintained and equipped.
The owners contacted us even before we arrived and thus made us feel welcome even before we arrived. The hostess's attention to detail to make guests feel welcome definitely deserves a thumbs up.
Very tidy, so quiet and slept incredibly well. Host and wife are very friendly. Would definitely recommend if you are driving through to the Cape.
Stayed and slept very well. Accommodation very nice.
Brilliant in every way.
Very nice stay. The only problem I had was that my car was under a tree and the birds made a terrible mess of my car.
Lovely town and the nicest place to sleep over.
I was pleasantly surprised with this beautiful place, the most beautiful detail that greets you and the cleanliness that makes you feel right at home. The air conditioner was a relief on the hot day. Everything that is needed, so carefully planned and displayed. Had a great sleep. Thank you very much, it was truly a pleasure to spend the night here.
Very nice rest after a long journey.
Air conditioning in 38 degree C heat was a pain. Beautiful rooms and fragrant herb garden were like an oasis.
What wonderful hosts. It's not easy traveling with a 3-year-old and 5-year-old, however, this place was perfect for our family. Close to a Spar (walking distance) to get snacks for the kids. The rooms had everything you needed. The hosts were knowledgeable and helpful.
Very nice stay at Rietjiesbos. Everything was very clean, tidy and comfortable! Friendly and helpful host and hostess. We would recommend Rietjiesbos anytime.
A clean and spacious, uncluttered bedroom. The mattress was very comfortable and the surroundings were quiet.
Beautiful unit, nice decor. Cutely furnished, small kitchen with everything you need for a sleepover. Friendly owners, very helpful.
Lovely venue and welcoming hosts.
Clean and tidy. Nice room with everything one needs. Very comfortable stay.
Was comfortable and neat.
Average but okay. Value for money.
Great stay. Nice people.
Had incredible delicious ear soap there. Super cute and helpful host!
Would definitely recommend this cute little place. The owners are very friendly and helpful. Secure parking and close to all shops.
Amazing host and hostess.
Will stay here again.
The place gets 10 out of 10 and is excellent value for money. All needs are catered for, including small items such as a grab handle in the shower.
There is so much attention to detail in that guest house. Bubblebath, filter coffee, biscuits, enough milk - it's the little things that make a BIG difference.
The room, bathroom and kitchen are beautiful, very neat and clean. Valerie was very friendly and helpful. We had a great stay even if it was only for one night.
Fantastic hosts. Everything was as advertised and I highly recommend it.
Room was ready. We traveled with our Mobi Lodge (caravan) no effort was spared to park it safely for the night.
Beautiful place with very friendly host and hostess. We would definitely choose Rietjiesbos again if we were to drive through Graaff-Reinet again.
Our hostess and host welcomed us kindly in the beautiful Rietjiesbos. The garden was stunning and added to the peaceful atmosphere. Our room was beautiful and equipped with everything we needed. We had a nice walk around town and had a good night's rest. We would definitely recommend Rietjiesbos.
Nice place to sleep, centrally located near restaurants.
Friendly reception, spotless and stylish overnight accommodation. Definitely worth a return.
We had a wonderful stay. Thank you for the hospitality.
Friendly service, very helpful, nicest room. Beautifully clean.
Ideal place to spend the night. Well located. Person who received us is very friendly and helpful and there is also a paper indicating load shedding. Room is spacious, clean and tidy. Bed also sleeps very well. Will sleep there again.
A very comfortable stay!
Warm welcome and very neat and safe.
Very nice stay. Will stay there again. The rooms look like on the web photos, beautiful. Friendly people. We slept very well.
Nice restaurants close to the guest house, as well as an all-night garage just a short distance down the same street as the guest house. Was also happy for the 5 liters of fresh water they provided.
Can recommend for sure.
Excellent, neat and clean accommodation. The facilities are very well planned and complete.
Rietjiesbos is beautiful and a wonderful retreat after a long journey. We had a wonderful sleep over. The room was very neat, nicely furnished and very comfortable. Will definitely stay there again if we venture on the road to the Cape or if we spend time in the Karoo.
Would highly recommend this as a stop-over.
Comfortable accommodation in a beautiful setting. Wonderful hosts.
Graaff-Reinet is beautiful. Rietjiesbos offers secure off-street parking, which many other places do not have. Most beautiful, cleanest, finest place to sleep.
Clean, safe and comfortable.
A beautifully appointed room with lovely en suite and well stocked little kitchen set on quiet garden. Delightful welcoming hosts.
What a fantastic place, neat, clean, there is everything you need and more. Friendly owners, helpful and to top it all off all the units are beautiful.
Very neat. Friendly reception, value for money.
After a long hot drive, it's nice to be able to go home to an extremely stylish oasis. Friendly reception with excellent facilities. Keep it up!
Gasheer was baie behulpsaam en vriendlik. Aanbeveelbaar beslis.
Friendly reception and spacious, beautiful accommodation.
We had a great stay in a neat, clean room in a peaceful environment with everything we needed.
The room was spacious and clean. Bed was comfortable and the kitchenette caters for all your needs. I will definitely return.
Our room was beautiful and clean, staff was extremely friendly, would definitely recommend.
We were received very kindly and slept well.
This little cottage was very convenient, walking distance to shops and restaurants, fully furnished, clean, comfortable, etc.
Would highly recommend. Very convenient.
Friendly hostess. Very clean and tidy. Authentic and unique to the county.
Everything was perfect. Very clean, comfy bed, amazing bathroom and attention to detail superb. We even received a little milk in our fridge for our coffee- much appreciated!
Okay, very neat thank you.
We had a nice rest after a long journey. The owner is very nice and helpful. We will definitely stay there again.
Will definitely stay at Rietjiesbos again on the next trip down to Sedgefield. Top class.
How nice it was to come to a beautiful cottage after a long journey and sit on the porch and watch the sunset! Truly a gem!
The unit was neat and clean. Everything we needed for our two day stay was available.
Rietjiesbos exceeded all our expectations! Valerie and her husband were excellent hosts and very helpful. We have been spending the night in Graaff-Reinet on our way to the Cape for 20 years and Rietjiesbos is for sure our new stopover. The beautiful, exquisite decor is an absolute bonus.
Filter coffee a big plus.
Perfect halfway stop. Had a great time eating out and hanging out in Graaff-Reinet.
At Rietjiesbos we only receive the best service. We often spend the night here and will stay here again and again. Warm welcome and the places are neat, clean and very comfortable!
A wonderful place to stay. Beautiful and comfortable. Will have to come back when lockdowns ease to explore, the town looks vibey and fun.
We were absolutely surprised with the beautiful and clean room, lovely electric blanket and all the DSTV channels. Really value for money. Natasha is very helpful and friendly.
Rietjiesbos, with her very knowledgeable and attentive hostess Valerie, offers the traveller a good night's rest comfortable, well equipped and quirky accommodation. Highly recommended.
Very friendly and pleasant owners. Plekkie is very neat and has everything that makes an overnight stay (and also longer) comfortable. Never felt unsafe. Will definitely stay here again if I'm looking for accommodation in the area.
Would definitely recommend Rietjiesbos.
Friendly reception. Very neat and tidy room and bathroom. Secure parking. Quiet area.
We were received kindly and immediately felt at home.
I have very few times stayed in a place where I could not have done or had something better ready for guests. At Rietjiesbos, the owners are people of heart. The view beautiful and it really feels like 'home'. I was very impressed during my time there. Please don't book there, because then there might be a possibility that I won't get a place! Had a great stay and the laundry was top notch! Can really recommend.
We slept great and the room is so nicely decorated. The room is well equipped with everything one could need and we appreciated the air conditioning. We would definitely recommend it and stay there again.
No breakfast is currently served! Also very clean and tidy. Fare maybe just too expensive.
The rooms are really nice and clean. Everything you need for an overnight stay.
We stayed at Rietjiesbos as a midway stop between Gauteng and the Garden Route. Rooms were nicely furnished and well looked after, full DStv available and electric blankets in winter were a big plus!
Very neat and clean.
Very neat and clean. Will definitely recommend them.
The friendly, hospitable and prompt service at Rietjiesbos B&B is what gives this overnight stay ten out of ten in my book.
Good overnight stop to the coast.
Friendly reception, room in excellent condition, very secure parking.
Reception was very friendly and helpful.
Would suggest that due to COVID if you cannot supply breakfast that you give a discount or some form of goodwill. Know we are all struggling but need to keep customer confidence up. Very clean and neat and safe parking for the over night stop.
Beautiful place with very neat room. Will definitely stay there again.
Our host and hostess went the proverbial extra mile to make our stay a pleasant experience.
Would definitely recommend Rietjiebos. Very pretty.
Made an extra effort to upgrade us to a better room.
Hospitable and friendly. Neat with crisp white linen and towels. Secure parking. Delicious breakfast.
Couldn't get breakfast because it was a Sunday morning. Probably I paid for it when I booked accommodation. Couldn't get breakfast at 8am in town either.
I arrived exhausted from a long drive, I had prompt and excellent service. The room was very comfortable, clean and spacious. They went out of their way to make me feel at home. I hope to stay there again.
Accommodation and breakfast at Rietjiesbos was like a fresh breeze through the Karoo's grasses. Crisp, pure white linen and towels. Rest, peace and comfort! Thank you Valerie for your hospitality and kind welcome. We will definitely come again.
Everything was perfect and we had no problems. Hospitality outstanding.
Valerie is an excellent hostess, took the trouble to book dinner at a restaurant, her breakfast was delicious and hot. The bed and pillows were very comfortable, the area is quiet and our car was safe. What more could a traveler ask for?
Rietjiebos' rooms are beautifully decorated. Rooms are spacious and clean. Attention to detail has been given with each room. Beds are comfortable.
We stayed overnight at Rietjiesbos when we traveled back to Pretoria from Cape Town. We got there in the afternoon after a long day on the road, so the lovely bath and extremely comfortable bed was just what we needed. The room and en suite bathroom were beautiful and had everything we could possibly need. The only bad thing for us was that we were on our way again early the next morning and couldn't stay longer. Next time we go to the Cape again we will definitely stay at Rietjiesbos again, but this time we will probably sleep there for a few nights.
We had a great time at Rietjiesbos. The unit is very nice and clean, exactly as it looks in the photos! We also had a delicious breakfast. Will definitely stay there again!
Everything was clean, neat and comfortable. Valerie and her husband are friendly and very helpful. You feel safe and welcome.
Valerie took us through and explained everything and served a brilliant breakfast.
We had a great time at Rietjiesbos on the way to Mossel Bay! Would stay there again anytime. Very tidy with beautiful rooms.
The rooms are comfortable and inviting to relax. The owner is so accommodating, you feel at home. Will stay there again.
Delicious breakfast and good recommendation of restaurants for dinner.
Safe and a wonderful place to return to.
Very hospitable, tidy and well located in peaceful surroundings and good precautions against the cold area.
Very nice guest house and very neat and clean with secure parking. The air conditioning helped a lot because it was very hot.
Friendly service. Very pleasant.
Clean, tidy, friendly and helpful people and very safe and peaceful.
Have slept in the area in the past. First time here and going back every time.
We have 4 teenagers who experienced the overnight stay as wonderful as we did. It was incredibly hot in Graaff-Reinet, but the rooms have air conditioning, and everything you need. We will definitely stay here again!
Great town and excellent service.
Our hostess received us warmly and was very helpful. The grounds were neat and tidy and the water-wise garden, despite the severe drought, provided a courtyard. Secure parking inside. Our room was clean, neat and equipped with all possible amenities. The decor was characterful and created a homely atmosphere. Our breakfast was neat, tasty and good value for money. The service was prompt and friendly. We would definitely love to stay there again.
Stunning, neat unit with wonderful hosts. Place very safe and breakfast out of this world.
Rietjiesbos guest house's room was tastefully decorated and ideal for an overnight stay on the way to Hermanus. The bath is lovely big and the air conditioning made sure that the heat didn't bother us! What a lovely place to visit!
I travelled with a friend and experienced true countryside friendliness with the hostess and her husband. They went out of their way to make us feel welcome. The unit was clean and tidy. Bedding was beautifully clean, white and crisp. They also provided coffee, tea, milk and rusks. I will definitely stay here again.
Have been several times at Rietjiesbos. Always clean, neat and tasteful. Comfortable accommodation with a good and safe location in Graaff-Reinet. Breakfast at Rietjiesbos always very tasty. Friendly service.
Had a nice stay and the people are wonderful.
Very comfortable place to stay overnight in Graaff-Reinet, if not the best! Felt immediately at home in the Duifie room and slept wonderfully. There was fresh milk for coffee and a nice porch to enjoy it. Great!
We were very kindly received upon arrival. We were also informed of nearby places to eat. We did eat at one that night and it was excellent. The room was ready for us upon arrival. It was spacious and extremely tidy. There were also essential extras such as a hairdryer in the room. The Wi Fi and a large selection of television channels was an additional treat. The environment was extremely peaceful and parking safe. We would definitely stay there again and highly recommend it.
From the start to departure from Rietjiesbos, everything was extremely professional. The rooms are tastefully furnished. Valerie was extremely helpful. We will definitely stay there again if we are in that area.
A gem and a sleepover that was wonderful. Close to restaurants and easy to get to.
We would recommend Rietjiebos to travelers anytime.
Very friendly. Asked how far we were on the road.
Definitely good value for money.
Lieflike oornagverblyf.
Had a wonderful stay. Friendly welcome very nice clean and very tidy. Will stay there again for sure. Really good value for money.
Lovely, clean and comfortable with hospitable hosts.
Wonderful stay! Breakfast is great value for money. Valerie is a lovely host - quiet and unassuming. We wanted for nothing! Thank you Rietjiesbos, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
The people at Rietjiesbos B&B are really pleasant.
Had a wonderful stay. Very spacious and comfortable. Silver clean. Good bedding. Will stay there again. Valerie and her husband very hospitable.
Friendly guest house.
Very pleasant stay, neat and clean.
The room was very well equipped and had enough room. Good location and nice stoep.
The only guest house that was all right. Bathroom nice and big and the only shower with a hand shower to wash hair. The only place where we could watch KykNet again.
I could not recommend the Rietjiesbos B&B any higher. My girlfriend and I were blown away by the decor of our room and bathroom, the facilities available (DStv, Wi-Fi) and the friendliness and professionalism of management. If you are staying in Graaff-Reinet, go to the Rietjiesbos B&B!
I have a guide dog. Was very happy that they accommodated us. The most beautiful furniture in the rooms, very neatly and painstakingly decorated.
Would recommend to any people. There are so many things to see in Graaff-Reinet, next time I will stay longer at Rietjiesbos and visit everything there.
Would love to stay here again. Clean, tidy and very beautiful. Walking distance to restaurants. Hostess was friendly and very helpful.
Would definitely stay there again. Friendly service and beautiful rooms.
It's very neat everything is working. Valerie lets you feel at home right away and is friendly and helpful. I can recommend it to anyone. Absolutely beautiful.
A very warm welcome in an authentic Victorian location.
Finger licking good breakfast, fluffy white towels, crisp white linen and I really loved the garden! I am definitely coming again.
Great service and a beautiful place. A must for groups or solo travelers too.
We were received kindly, everything was beautiful and tidy in the rooms. The most delicious pillows! Quiet surroundings, safe vehicles and delicious breakfast.
The rooms are very neat and nicely furnished. Everything you need. We were received and served very kindly. The breakfast was also delicious! Rietjiesbos is highly recommended as a place to stay!
Perfect location, walking distance to all attractions, very safe, quiet and met all our needs. There's just no substitute for personal attention, and you get that here!
Clean, tidy place. Very quiet and peaceful. The hostess made us feel at home and was very helpful. Would recommend anytime after a long trip on the road.
I would give this place 6 stars if I could! The people are so friendly and hospitable! The rooms are beautiful, we slept very well. And they went out of their way to make us feel extra welcome by giving us a bottle of wine! Would definitely stay there again!
The rooms are spacious and tastefully decorated. The location is central and can walk to the nearest shop. The staff are friendly and helpful. We had a wonderful overnight stay at Rietjiesbos B&B and recommend the guest house.
Excellent service with clean and safe facilities in a very good location make Rietjiesbos a good choice as an overnight facility. Valerie received us warmly and very soon even helped us to get another reservation at a nice restaurant quite late.
Beautiful accommodation, absolutely loved our stay!
Friendly service. Good mattress. Slept well. Good shower. Safe. Helpful hostess. Delicious breakfast. Old world charm.
Graaff-Reinet was a wonderful overnight stop! We really enjoyed the short time there.
Our room was tidy and the bed very comfortable. There is a beautiful garden in the courtyard. Unfortunately, the room walls are not very soundproof. Our neighbors were not noisy, but it can be funny if you accidentally hit it. Valerie is a friendly, helpful hostess. If this is important to travelers, they should note that breakfast is not offered at Rietjiesbos on Sunday mornings. Ask Valerie for pointers to restaurants that do offer it on Sundays.
Our stay at Rietjiebos B&B was wonderful. It's simple and nicely laid out, perfect for an overnight stay. All the facilities are clean and there is secure parking for your vehicle - their breakfast was also delicious. Valerie and the rest of her staff are also very friendly and helpful.
Was kindly received and had a very nice stay. Would definitely recommend.
Very friendly reception when we arrived at 7 pm. Nice spacious bathroom with a bath and large shower. Very neat, clean and peaceful area.
My husband and I were on honeymoon and Rietjiesbos was our third last stay. The accommodation was beautiful, clean and comfortable. Our host was super friendly and recommended great tourist activities. Breakfast was lovely and Wifi actually worked! Our best stay of our entire road trip/honeymoon.
Our stay at Rietjiesbos was short, but it's the type of place where you can stay for a long time to enjoy the jewel of the Little Karoo, Graaff Reinet. The service was superb, the owners hospitable and always at the ready to be of assistance. Breakfast wat tops - any traveller's dream. Rietjiesbos is strongly recommended!
Owners are there to personally welcome you. Most beautiful and comfy rooms even with electric blankets and fluffy towels. Quiet and peaceful and delicious breakfast.
I can recommend Rietjiesbos B&B to travellers. It is clean, neat and in a quiet setting. The staff is pleasant, helpful and willing to meet the guests' requests.
As always a nice place to stay, clean, safe, friendly and well located.
See rating.
Wilfred and Valerie know what they're doing at Rietjiesbos. We booked through LekkeSlaap. The foto's we saw on the website was exactly what we got at Rietjiesbos. Valerie welcomed us warmly, showed us the rooms, advised us where to get dinner, answered all of our answers and treated us to a lovely breakfast the next morning. From our arrival to departure, a lovely experience!
Very friendly welcome, accommodation clean and tidy, would recommend it anytime. Top notch breakfast.
All of the guests were impressed.
We felt very welcome and at home with our 2 kids, 2 and 6 months. They were able to play outiside and we relax on the nice stoep.
The breakfast was delicious, and well prepared. We inquired about the mattress in our room as we have never slept on such a nice bed.
Rietjiesbos will definitely see us again and we really enjoyed our stay.
At my 4th stay in Graaf-Reinet the best i've seen. Excellent room, good breakfast, convenient location.
Valerie ... What a hostess! Her place is neat and clean. Feel free to stay there for the Karoo experience of a lifetime.
Older house, great maintenance, friendly people and in a quiet part of town.
Rietjiesbos is our first choice to spend the night. The rooms are extremely clean and tidy. Everything we need is there. With the fridge in the rooms it is now even better. Thank you very much for your kindness and hospitality.
The rooms are well equipped, and the bathroom really something special. The breakfast is nice and big, the reception very hospitable. It is certainly value for money, despite being located so far from the town centre.
Beautiful facilities, great feel and neat and clean. Owners were friendly and helpful and you were made to feel special. Would definitely stay again if opportunity arises.
Pleasant reception and stay. The hostess cares, even when I got sick. Homely atmosphere. Pleasant breakfast, help with places to visit in town and in the area. We would definitely recommend Rietjiesbos.
Quiet area, beautiful, neat and stylish! I'll definitely visit again. Good breakfast.
We enjoyed the weekend at Rietjiesbos. Thank you for your hospitality and the delicious breakfast. The room is neat and welcoming.
Accommodation was very neat and clean, host and hostess were very friendly and helpful.
Rietjiesbos B&b is a Graaff-Reinet gem. The reception was friendly and felt at home immediately. Would definitely recommend.
Beautiful, friendly, spotlessly clean guesthouse with peaceful atmosphere which is situated on the edge of the town but still near the main street. Rooms are tastefully decorated which provides a homely atmosphere. Will definitely be returning.
What a pleasant surprise! Exceptionally friendly and helpful. The room was lovely, modern and tidy - with crisp linen! The breakfast was delicious and plentiful! And a bonus because I thought you pay extra for breakfast - but it was already included. Definitely one of the best B & B's I've ever stayed in. Definitely book here when you need accommodation in Graaff-Reinet.
I was pleasantly surprised by Rietjiesbos. The rooms were neat, clean and very nicely decorated. Our hosts were friendly and the breakfast was fantastic. I will definitely stay there again and will highly recommend Rietjiesbos to all my friends and family.
We had a lovely stay. Clean, neat beautiful place with very hospitable people.
Great service, stunning room and nice relaxing place. I felt safe.
Stunning decor and quality bedding. Delicious breakfast. Relaxing area. Lovely garden. Vehicle locked behind gate and high fence. Really a great place to stay at!
Rietjiesbos is a jewel in the middle of a lovely Karoo town. The owners are smiling people with a sparkle in their eyes and one cannot but feel home and safe as soon as one arrives. Unsurpassed neatness and beautiful decor. Clean and fresh. The owners put in a real effort to make us feel comfortable and breakfast was excellent - à la Karoo-hostess, like something from a storybook. When we have to stay over in the Karoo again, it will be certainly be at Rietjiesbos.
Thanks for the lovely accommodation. The hostess was nice enough to let us book in earlier so we could get ready for a wedding. The decor in the rooms is modern, clean and open, but also has character. Breakfast was delicious. Would really like to stay at Rietjiesbos again.
Wonderful guest house, value for money. I would definitely return and recommend it to all.
We were very happy with the accommodation. Owners were friendly. Enough secure parking and the unit was stunning and comfortable.
Excellent service, caring.
Rietjiesbos is a stunning guest house, not a thing out of place and nice little patio where you can appreciate the view of the beautiful garden. Friendly reception by Valerie, the host. All information about local activities and eateries area provided in file in room. We will stay nowhere else in Graaff-Reinet.
Friendly reception and really enjoyed our stay. Will definitely go back and highly recommended. Delicious breakfast.
What a wonderful experience. The hospitality and area is incredible. Thank you!
The room was beautiful and comfortable. It's in a lovely quiet setting which is a bonus. Vivian was very friendly and helpful. The guest house is really beautiful and everything is neat. One feels very safe. I would definitely recommend it.
Rietjiesbos is beautiful with a cute character. Silver clean, just smells good. Quiet and safe, but close to shops, garage and restaurants. Delicious breakfast! We would visit there again anytime and would be happy to recommend.
We had a lovely stay and will definitely recommend them. It is neat and clean and the breakfast is lovely. We will stay here again in future. Thank you!
Thanks Valerie and Wilfred. You were the best!
One of the best guest houses I have ever stayed at. Hosts went the extra mile to cater to my every need. Will definitely organize my next trip in such a way that I can stay here again. 100%! Thank you so much.
I have stayed in guest houses right across the country. This guest house is one of the best. Lovely, spacious and spotlessly clean rooms. The hostess is very friendly and helpful. Delicious breakfast. Safe parking.
Our stayover was fantastic. A very neat place and fully equipped. I will recommend Rietjiesbos to my family and friends any time.
Like a homecoming after a long journey.
The accommodation and breakfast were very pleasant. Couldn't ask for better. I will stay there again and recommend to everyone. Perfect!
It was indeed a pleasure to stay there. Great hospitality.
I had a great stay and felt completely safe. Breakfast was also delicious.
Highly recommended - good value for money.
Safe, clean and homely and pet-friendly accommodation in a quiet part of Graaff-Reinet. The owner is very helpful. Made recommendation as well as a reservation for us for dinner. Would recommend with great confidence.
Rietjiesbos is nothing short of excellent. It is located in the quieter part of Bourke Street, but still no more than a stone's throw from the town centre. The rooms are more than comfortable and very nicely furnished. One feels more than at home, just special. Valerie is hospitable and kind and she went out of her way to find us a place to eat at her own expense (Polka, which was again excellent). The breakfast was again top notch. We are definitely going to stay there again soon, just for two nights so that we can see the town a bit and we highly recommend this accommodation.
Neat and clean with a fantastic breakfast. Wilfred and Valerie are a great host and wife respectively. Very safe and indoor parking. We will definitely stay here again.
Very friendly people.
Friendly and helpful hosts. Real home away from home! Stylish and cosy rooms and very safe. Delicious full breakfast, including healthy and traditional options! We will definitely come back!
Very friendly welcome, everything in order and nice and pleasant overnight stay.
Good, neat and beautiful. Unfortunately would not recommend if pets are with you.
Comfortable and well furnished and very clean and tidy. All our needs met. Enjoyed a lot. Warm friendly service. Was clean and tidy and vouchers and WiFi good idea especially if you are staying there and have business to do.
I was travelling on my own as a young guy and I really enjoyed my stay at Rietjiesbos B&B. Even though I only stayed there for one night, I slept like a rose after an awesome night-drive in the Camdeboo National Park that the owners suggested me to do. The room was decorated in a modern style and was therefore nice and fresh. I wish I had a bathroom like theirs at my own place. The breakfast was great and their garden is beautifully filled with flowers and herbs. With the sun shining in the morning I could really enjoy just a coffee on the veranda of my room, watching the garden, mountains and birds while having a nice chat with the owners.
Can also be used for business travel, well located, friendly and good service, nice interior and clean, beautiful town, lots to see, especially the National Park - nice visit!
Felt at home immediately. The room was tasteful and clean. Will definitely visit again.
Clean, friendly, peaceful rest and stay
We will definitely use the accommodation again if we want to spend the night in Graaff-Reinet.
Friendly people and a nice breakfast in a very cute room.
