Middedorp Manor

The owners of Middledorp Manor were nothing but accommodating and friendly. Their attention to detail is fantastic and they have such a welcoming home! I can highly recommend a stay here in the heart of Stellenbosch.

We were very disappointed. The rooms are tired and the overall cleanliness wasn't great, e.g. the slippers offered looked like someone else had worn them before. The level of service was also a let down. I called to confirm our time of arrival and was told check-in is two hours earlier than what it said on our booking confirmation. So we had to cut our (until then beautiful) day trip short to rush to the BnB. When we arrived, we asked for a nice restaurant to have dinner at, the only answer was: "They are all good." Apparently not, because I caught a very nasty stomach bug. Breakfast also wasn't impressive. The only reason why I give more than one star is the location: They are in great walking distance to Stellenbosch.

I stayed in 4 different places in South Africa and this was by far the best. It's a beautiful guesthouse is a fantastic location- minutes walk from the centre of Stellenbosch and extremely good value. The staff were very welcoming and friendly and always on hand to help. The breakfasts were delicious too! Well recommended and would definitely go back.
