4 guests' feedbackWe had a wonderful stay, rooms are well furnished. Appreciated that heaters were on for us before we returned from our function - rooms were wonderfully warm on a cold evening. Breakfast was very tasty with great variety. Guest house has cute sitting corners in the house and outside. Host and hostess were very friendly and nice. Thank you very much again!
We had a lovely few days over Christmas at Steynshoop and came away feeling relaxed, well-fed, and spoilt. Thanks to Pieter, Mita, fabulous Chef Paulina, and the rest of the team. It's a beautiful location for a peaceful breakaway.
Very nice hike to the top of the mountain. Friendly staff, nice weekend.
The place is beautiful if you like nature. The fact that there were no children or pets really gave it a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. We had a great rest and the place is well maintained.
