This is a beautiful property in a great location. Our accommodation (Cottage 6) was very spacious, beautifully decorated and well equipped. The Manor House itself is a real gem - full of interesting art, literature and furnishings. Leon and Luke are great hosts. They were always on hand to chat over our plans and offer any assistance we needed. The overall experience felt more like sharing their home than staying in a hotel. So if you want something that is high quality yet really homely, just book it!

Consistently great
We’ve stayed at Vredenburg before and the reception we’ve received has always been brilliant. The room is in great condition and the bed is extremely comfortable. It’s a beautiful old house with all of the creature comforts of home. Our only criticism is that the breakfast was not of the quality we would expect from this type of 4 star establishment

Beautiful location, tranquillity and friendly
My mum and I have just returned from a stay at Vrendenburg Manor House, the location is beautiful and very peaceful. Luke and Leon make you very welcome and will do everything to make your stay perfect. The breakfast on the veranda in the sun was just a great start to the day with a choice of fruits, cereal, yogurt, breads, cheeses and meat along with a full cooked menu. The rooms are clean and very comfortable. The house itself is well decorated and comfortable. Paintings, books and pieces of art make for a lovely feel to the manor house along with the piano. The staff are all very friendly and make sure everyday that your stay is going well. The gardens and pool are also well kept even at this time of drought. I would definitely stay here again I loved the relaxing peaceful surroundings. Thank you Luke and Leon for a lovely stay. You do need a car to get around but most things are fairly close and easy to get to with GPS.

I went to SA to spend New Year's Eve with my family and friends. I happened upon this place it is well-- incredible in every way and I am already planning to go back! From the personal touch offered by Leon and Luke and their incredible team, to the room that smelled of lilac when I entered. Breakfast was incredible I couldn't eat it all. It's centrally located in a very safe environment.
