Lovely old property built and set out in the old Dutch style. Small but clean swimming pool. Owner very helpful and stepped in with hot water bowls when the overnight storms caused water failure. Recommend this B&B.

Stay at Buiten Verwagten Guest House
Warm and friendly welcome by owner Lizelle. Room and facility immaculate. Enjoyed the private garden area and parking close to our unit. Lizelle made a dinner reservation at Polka restaurant in Graaf Reinet , a definite highlight of our trip. Breakfast served was of high quality. Thank you Lizelle and staff, will definitely see you again. Deon and Magda Kriel

Das Zimmer war einfach nicht zum wohlfühlen. Gott sei Dank waren wir nur eine Nacht da. Wenn man die Zimmertür aufgemacht hat stand man direkt auf dem Parkplatz und wenn man aus dem Fenster geschaut hat war in einem Meter Abstand nur eine Wand zu sehen. So ein Zimmer dürfte nicht vermietet werden. Kann ich nicht weiter empfehlen.

Dieses Guesthouse ist wunderbar und sehr schön und geschmacksvoll eingerichtet! Old Style! Die Zimmer haben wunderschöne alte Holz-Böden! Durch die Hintertür gelangten wir direkt in den schönen Garten an den Pool! Dort ist es sehr erholsam! Die Gastreundschaft der Besitzerin war sehr herzlich und super freundlich!!! Wir können das zu 100% weiter empfehlen! Jederzeit gerne wieder! 🌸

SUPER hyggelig sted. Kommer helt sikkert tilbage
Vi overnattede i “The Blue Room” super hyggeligt i original stil. Der er rent og pænt og en god morgenmad. Det ligger midt i byen i gå afstand til de fleste attraktioner. Lizelle som er værtinden er super sød og venlig og står klar med gode anbefalinger til alt fra middag til hvad man skal se i lokal området. Vi skal helt sikkert bo her næste gang vi kommer i området!
