86 guests' feedbackSparkling clean and fully equipped self-catering cottage. Perfect for a stopover on the way back from the Kgalagadi to Durban. Friendly, helpful, welcoming host. Highly recommended.
Excellent accommodation; they had no issues with my late arrival. The room was clean, neat, and had all the amenities you would need. I would definitely use them again when travelling to JHB.
Excellent, a wonderful place for us to stopover on our trip.
Absolutely immaculate, stunning bathrooms and very comfortable bedrooms. The hostess was really lovely and accepting of our 4-legged kids regardless of size. Very impressed.
I would definitely recommend the Die Gewel Self-catering Guest House. Very tidy and Janet makes sure you feel at home.
Very friendly and welcoming.
Although the environment in which Die Gewel is located does not necessarily make one feel particularly safe, we were comfortable staying here as 2 women. The place is beautiful, newly redone and everything was very neat and clean. The bathrooms are a lot more spacious than necessary, but of course that's nothing to complain about. The beds and pillows were comfortable and the linen of good quality and spotless. We only stayed for the night and Die Gewel was conveniently close enough to the main road and easy to find. The hostess gave us enough attention to make us feel at home and we had a good rest. Communication was quick, friendly and very clear. They made an effort to receive us later than the expected arrival time. The WiFi didn't work very well, but I didn't bother asking for help either because I could manage with my own mobile data. I would highly recommend The Gable to anyone. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your beautiful place!
Such a lovely stay with the best host and hostess. They are very friendly and go beyond the call of duty. We love Die Gewel. Beautiful rooms, each with their own verandas. Very comfortable stay and we will definitely be back.
Best accommodation and best reception and hospitality, would recommend anytime, very tidy accommodation and everything is very comfortable.
Delicious! Bathroom is special. Everything is perfect.
Very nice rest after a long day's driving.
Friendly, tidy, value for money, will definitely stay there again.
Accommodation exceeded expectations. Only spent the night there on the way from North to South, and it was the perfect choice.
We were four people who only stayed one night but it felt like a holiday. The most beautiful view, all the luxuries one could want and the friendliest owners. Air conditioners in the room, a generator and gas plates. The place to stay is so beautiful, clean, tidy and modern. It was really like staying in a 5 star hotel, but only self catering.
Lovely, quiet accommodation on the edge of town. It's well equipped, neatly maintained, and spacious. The comfort ensures that one is rested for the next day's journey and/or activities. There is plenty of covered parking.
It was just like last time, a pleasure to stay there.
We were received very kindly. The stay was wonderful. The spacious rooms were a pleasant surprise. Everything is clean, tidy and of very good quality.
If I could give an 11 out of 10, I would for sure not only one of the best places we have stayed, but THE BEST.
The Gewel guest house offers all the necessary facilities for any traveler looking for an overnight stay. There is a generator that is switched on during load shedding, so no darkness. The unit we stayed in also had an air conditioner. Perfect, perfect, perfect! Very neat and clean.
We had, as we did the last time, a wonderful night. Janet is a kind and very caring hostess who makes you feel so welcome. We loved our stay. Thank you.
Room has everything one needs. Will recommend for sure.
Beautiful, neat, spacious guest house. A gem.
Hospitable and friendly owners.
The friendly welcome and the beautiful neatly equipped units are luxurious and tasteful, attention is paid to detail and guests are spoiled with little extras that we have not seen at other overnight places with our trip to Cape and back, the place gives more than value for money and I felt we could have paid more for what we got and experienced, the place is really "a cut above".
Friendly reception, clean and tidy, ideal place for an overnight stay.
Our 2nd time staying there. Wonderful, neat, friendly service, lots of extras included. An oasis in a village that has deteriorated greatly.
Lovely peaceful surroundings. Beautiful garden area. Loved it! The room was spacious, clean, and had everything we needed. I'm short and did find getting things in and out of the microwave a bit difficult, especially as it had to be done at an angle and was a bit high for me. We so enjoyed relaxing in the garden after a day on the road. The hostess was there to meet us and was friendly and helpful. We did have a little trouble finding the premises even with our GPS but found it quickly after asking for directions. We would definitely stay there again.
Accommodation of such a high standard and decor beautiful. We will definitely stay over again. Despite loadshedding we had aircon and warm water when using the lovely shower.
We were very surprised when we walked in and saw all the luxuries. Everything has clearly been redone recently. There is every possible thing you need (also for loadshedding) and a lovely garden. Our dog really enjoyed it there too! Janet is very helpful and friendly!
Good friendly service. When the restaurant where we wanted to eat was closed due to load shedding, the owner even offered to make us something to eat! Excellently equipped for self-catering, beautiful spacious bathroom!
We had a great stay, fantastic accommodation which was very unexpected for Ventersburg. This place is a gem.
Great, comfortable stay. Lovely gardens.
Although the village is run down, Die Gewel Guest House was a pleasant surprise. Clean, tidy with everything we could possibly need.
It was our first time in Ventersburg and although the town does not look good, the guest house was a pleasant surprise.
The accommodation was quite adequate. Just the town itself wasn't great. Fine for an overnight stay.
The area was a bit shady but clean. We felt safe behind a secure fence and gate. The room was nice, clean and airy. Lovely lawn area to unwind on.
The accommodation was clean. The hosts were extremely friendly. The only problem was that it was difficult to get food.
We arrived after check-in time, but were kindly received. The unit was super modern and beautiful with everything needed.
The place is so so clean and everything is up to standard, as long as I need accommodation in Ventersburg, Die Gewel will always be my first choice. Keep up the good work.
Our hosts went out of their way to make us feel welcome and at home. The accommodation was excellent in every way. The location was good and secure parking was a bonus.
The lady made us feel very welcome and gave us an upgrade, for the unit where we would sleep. Room no 6, beautiful room and very spacious for 2 people. Thank you very much.
The next day down south is just that much shorter! It's a lovely spacious apartment! We were even able to make coffee with load shedding on their gas stove - luckily we had our own kettle there. The shower's water only took a while to come through again after load shedding. But a lovely lovely overnight venue.
Clean, very neat, spacious bedrooms and bathrooms.
Friendly service, extras like soap, cream etc. in bathrooms, milk, juice, water in fridge. Electric blanket on bed, spacious, clean.
This has been the best overnight stop we’ve found in the area. The room we had was large and very accommodating. The kitchen has more than one needs and the bathroom huge, with a wonderful hot shower. The hostess, Janet, is very hospitable and attended to all our needs.
Very nice place. Would sleep over there again when needed.
Janet is a wonderful hostess, she welcomed us kindly and made us feel very much at home. The rooms are luxuriously equipped and were particularly clean and tidy. It is always nice for us to spend the night somewhere where there are quality beds that will therefore ensure a good night's rest. We will definitely stay at the Gable again, great atmosphere and value for money.
Would love to check in there again in the future the cottage is nice and clean and each room has its own full bathroom.
We attended a sporting event in Kroonstad.
Very comfortable recently renovated self-catering cottage with view of farmlands on the edge of town. Above average bathroom and kitchen facilities. A friendly welcome from our hostess. This is a most convenient stopover en route home from Kruger.
Janet welcomed us with open arms and made us feel at home. Really value for money. Will definitely go back.
An oasis in Ventersburg. Had a great stay and enjoyed everything that is new, clean and pleasant. Very friendly host and hostess.
Die Gewel is the most beautiful property in the whole of Ventersburg. Very neat and clean, and friendly service.
This is my second stay at De Gewel, it makes an easy and convenient night between the coast and Kruger Park. The accommodation is well priced, spotless and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Wayne and Janet are brilliant hosts.
Very good service. They welcomed us with a smile at 2 in the morning. We were pleasantly surprised by how nice and tidy the rooms were. Will definitely stay there again.
Very modern, neat, friendly hostess.
Cute, clean, tidy, beautiful with lots of style - would really like to stay longer. We will most definitely stay there again in the future. Definitely a place to recommend. Thank you very much.
Well equipped and very tidy. Value for money.
Definitely recommended for travelers who want to spend the night in a clean and comfortable space on the long road. Will definitely visit again.
I had a great time staying at Die Gewel. The unit was super clean and the DStv and air conditioning was a big plus! Everything one needs and more. Will spend the night there again and again!
The Cottage was modernly furnished. Clean. Everything needed was there.
A well appointed self-catering option, conveniently situated near N1. Very friendly hosts - highly recommended.
We were received very kindly and were even helped to unload. Thank you very much! Unit is fresh and spotless and comfortable with everything you could need. There is a lot of history to this old Parsonage and the owners' collections and stories are very interesting. Would definitely recommend.
See stars.
Wonderful accommodation, very clean, lovely garden and fantastic hosts.
See stars.
The owners were very helpful and friendly. We are definitely going to sleep there again! We appreciate all the extra effort Janet and Wayne made for us and our parents.
It's a beautiful place and really beautiful. The owner welcomed us with open arms and it's definitely worth the effort.
Clean place with nice warm blankets. Well equipped kitchen. Nice and neat. Warm welcome as the room was warmed for us before our arrival.
We've discovered another gem.
See stars.
It was definitely value for money. Close to the town of Welkom. Clean and neat. We arranged in advance to take our puppy with us and there were no problems.
Friendly people and helpful. Very tasteful rooms and everything you need, especially mirrors in the right places near power plugs! Very comfortable evening. Will stay there again.
Beautiful, clean accommodation with all the facilities you need to explore the area or to stay the night on your way elsewhere. Top notch hospitality, without interfering.
Not the best of places at which to stop. The owners have tried to do the place up, but the location is not good and the roads are really bad.
It was so beautiful and clean and the area was incredibly peaceful.
My parents, wife and young child travelled with me for a wedding. Modern, clean, not a thing out of place and frankly, we couldn't suggest anything because everything was perfect. What a pleasure, thank you!
Lovely, well maintained garden in a quiet peaceful setting. Definitely worth a visit for some rest and relaxation.
It was a wow for me and my wife in all respects that one expects from a guest house. Owners are very concerned and friendly. It was freezing cold on the road and the room's aircon was set nice and warm when we got there. It was a wonderful thought. We slept very well.
Best overnight stay we have found in a long time. Even though the town is neglected, Die Gewel is a diamond in the area. The patio in front of the room is great for relaxing. The residential unit is excellently planned and equipped. Would recommend this as an overnight stay option anytime.
The rooms are very well equipped, with microwave oven, air conditioner etc. The host and wife are friendly, particularly helpful and accommodating.
See stars.
I would recommend The Gables to any overnight travelers. The unit is too small for a longer stay.
We were very kindly received by Wayne and his wife. There is still quite a bit of construction going on, but it didn't bother me. The self-catering unit was neat, newly redone and well equipped. The running water creates a peaceful atmosphere. My only criticisms are the fact that parking is too far from the units (we had quite a lot to carry off - although Wayne offered to help). The Gewel Self-catering Guest House has a nice shaded braai area.
The owners, Wayne and Janet are very friendly, hospitable and gave us a warm welcome. The accommodation is very neat and beautifully equipped with all the necessities that one would need in a self-catering unit. Will definitely, if we travel that way again, stay at Die Gewel. We will definitely be able to recommend the accommodation.
We enjoyed our stay at Die Gewel, we will definitely come back.
