"Nice, neat and well-equipped house. Ideal getaway for a great rest."

It was a lovely getaway weekend. Everything is very beautiful and peaceful. We were able to relax in the beautiful nature and were warmly received by the host/wife, as well as the pets. We will definitely do it again.

"Quiet and lovely environment."

Was a very pleasant and lovely stay with great customer care services.

"Awesome ."

Beautiful views, very pleasant and accommodating host. We enjoyed the scenery and the beautiful starlight nights! A bonus in the countryside but difficult getting Ubers.

"A gem"

Special service and attention to satisfaction outstanding.

"Wonderful."

My family had a great stay. Garden house is very cozy and nicely furnished and the hostess was excellent.

"Peaceful and beautiful."

The place is incredibly beautiful and clean! It was our wedding day and the owner left chocolates and champagne for us in the unit. The owner is also very friendly and helpful. Would definitely book here again and definitely recommend. Peaceful atmosphere!

"It's been a wonderfully peaceful few days."

We searched quietly and calmly, our daughter had to study for an exam, and that's what we found at the garden house. The hostess is very friendly and helpful. She makes you feel at home.

"Fantastic!"

A hostess like never before. Friendly, helpful, caring and much more. It didn't even feel like I was away from my own home.

"Quiet nice visit in a unit that meets all needs."

Riki is a very friendly and hospitable hostess who puts her guests' interests first. Excellent and prompt service. Thank you very much Riki. We see again.

"It's a really nice place, it's very peaceful and you definitely get your money's worth."

The garden house is absolutely a stunning place where you can just sit and take in nature, it's outside the town so if you don't like places that are busy around you I would recommend the garden house.

"Very comfortable and beautiful."

It is a lovely peaceful beautiful place with everything you need and more. I can recommend it to everyone.

"Comfortable, neat, beautiful."

Many thanks to the owners of the Garden House. What a beautiful place. We had a great time. Will definitely go again.

"Neat and hospitable."

Our stay at the Garden House was very pleasant. Friendly service and hospitality stand out like an eyesore. The Garden House also pleasantly surprised us and made the Easter weekend extra special with a bunch of Easter eggs. Beds, pillows and blankets are lag-lag of the best.

"Amazing."

We had an amazing, awesome weekend. This was fabulous, no words can express.

"Very relaxing and private."

There was sufficient bedding and kitchen items. Hostess checked on us.

"Garden walk on the farm."

Well equipped and very central. Very friendly and helpful. Also some friendly farm animals for the children's fun.

"Friendly hostess and we will do it again."

The location is convenient especially for 3 ladies. The dogs are super friendly and the hostess is very accommodating. Close to supermarket.

"Beautiful, spacious place to escape to, with a lovely garden and dam for the kids to swim in."

Having the dogs and cats around made it feel like home.

"Relaxing, calming, private."

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Tuinhuis! It was well equipped and perfect for a break-away from the city. We especially loved the indoor fireplace at night. We'll definitely recommend this lovely place.

"Unique, practical and neat."

Centrally located to tour the Cape. Quiet farm atmosphere. Great for family time!

"Very peaceful place, will be able to stay longer in the future."

Riki and Isak went out of their way to accommodate us comfortably, even the dogs were friendly and didn't bother at all, will definitely go back!

"It was great, peace and quiet. I love it."

It is beautiful.

"The time was really awesome there."

Very neat, safe. Rikki's hospitality was heavenly, always helpful and made us feel at ease. It is very beautiful, neat and we enjoyed the swimming at the dam just as much. Can't wait to go home there again.

"Very convenient."

Very friendly and helpful. The environment is very quiet and peaceful and we felt very at home and welcome.

"Pathetic."

No cleaning service, change of bedding, floors, towels etc. No running water in taps when loadshedding. No television unit. WiFi that is available is very on and off. Photos on your ad do not match what we experienced.

"It was very relaxing. The kids come to run around and play, the space was just what we needed to relax."

The place is not too far from shops so that is a plus! The hostess was also very friendly. My children really enjoyed the dam, we will definitely go there again.

"Peaceful farm stay."

The first moment we walked into the Garden House, it felt like home. It smelled so deliciously clean you couldn't help but feel welcome. The children really enjoyed the peace and freedom of the farm, especially with their 3 new dog friends. Riki was very helpful and she is a wonderful hostess. Will visit again for sure.

"My sister and I could count on Riki, the hostess, for literally anything."

It was an interesting experience - however, the corrugated iron road puts immense pressure on the driver of an A-class vehicle.

"Peaceful and relaxing!"

This is perfect for a family, we went for my husband's birthday weekend, our toddler absolutely loved the labradors, we even gave them our own names, Whiskey, Brandy and Jack. They're super friendly and playful. The house is a perfect open plan, I can be in the kitchen and watch my daughter play. We braaied outside and in the evenings we lit the fireplace, all in all, 10/10 from us!

"Hospitable accommodation, very peaceful."

Garden house is much bigger than the photos reflect and it's a cozy place and the fireplace is definitely a plus.

"Lovely stay in the countryside, close to everything."

The house is very neat and comfortable. Felt very at home. Lovely fireplace for the winter. The house is on a farm, in nature, but still close to all the attractions, wine farms and Cape Town. Will definitely go again.

"We were in Paarl for my child's birth."

The apartment is very neat, but gets very cold at night. We had a nice stay.

"It was very nice, very nice place."

It is really value for money, if you go to rest it is the ideal place safe, quiet and very hospitable.

"Rest and peace for the soul."

An "all in one". From the sleeping place, indoor braai, kitchen and the tidy bathroom. Shower facilities fantastic. Neat garden. 3 x Labrador dogs (who were our animals for the weekend - very well behaved). Can't think of better and definitely recommended.

"Lovely, hospitable and helpful."

We were in a situation and needed a physiotherapist and the owner was able to refer us and we got sorted right away. Rikie also asked us every now and then how my son was doing. The animals and the miniature ponies were so beautiful and tame. Visited us every night.

"It was peaceful and comfy."

Very homely. Relaxing.

"Immaculate."

Welcoming was great. Place was extremely clean. Dogs were the best. Had an amazing resting weekend.

"Perfect place to get away from it all."

The garden house is a wonderful little house on a beautiful plot. It is calm, and has a nice farm atmosphere. It is within driving distance of Franschhoek, Stellenboch and Paarl. Definitely a winner for a nice holiday with family and friends.

"Incredibly Delicious"

My children's friends and I haven't seen each other for so long we just want to hang out and talk the garden house was perfect everything we needed was there we were received friendly the place was amazing

"Very nice environment and quiet."

We were well welcomed and received. Will definitely use garden house again.

"Business trip"

It's the right place to book if you're traveling for business but still want to wind down after a day's work, it would also be a perfect holiday spot. The atmosphere is wonderful and the owners make sure there is no shortage of anything. Will definitely recommend the place to people.

"Suited our needs down to the ground."

Very rustic, quaint accommodation on a small holding. Very central to Paarl and Stellenbosch, wine and Spice Route. No WiFi or TV but retro and cosy. Lovely host.

"Very quiet outside the bustle of a small holding with plenty of space and extremely friendly hosts."

We felt very at home with a very friendly reception in our own language by Riki, and we were surprised with the spaciousness and accessories in the unit. There was even an indoor braai, braai accessories, wine glasses and a bottle opener rarely found in self-catering units that are not familiar with our South African culture of braai and good Cape wine. Everything one could possibly need was available, security was sufficient, we had our own alarm remote control at our disposal and even the dogs on the yard further contributed to the general feeling of safety and homeliness. Thanks so much, Riki, we would love to come again!

"It was great!"

The garden house is a very quiet unit, fully equipped. Clean and neat. Riki is a true hostess.

"Was excellent and peaceful with hospitality from owner of place."

3 nights slept at quiet area, room only, place without any rooms if you bring kids.

"Quick getaway."

For a quick getaway not too far from the Northern suburbs it's perfect.

"Wonderful, old fashioned farm-style hospitality and an enormous room, with close proximity to Cape Town, Paarl and Stellenbosch."

Spacious, clean, traditional farm atmosphere, lovely kitchen (well-appointed).

"Quiet farm atmosphere."

A nice few days relaxing in a peaceful farm atmosphere.

"Very nice, calm and friendly aunt."

Upon arrival I was very kindly welcomed. I like the whole idea of being in the middle of nowhere and nowhere. I was looking for a place to rest after my long day of work and this is what I got without a doubt. Thank you very much.

"Walking distance from wedding venue. Very comfortable and neat."

We were welcomed by a very friendly lady. The place has everything you need. Large, open living area.

"Instantly felt at home. Friendly service and well furnished. "

Wonderful farm atmosphere, tranquil and very friendly service. Well furnished, spacious and I enjoyed it when the puppies came to visit. Very good value for money, can strongly recommend it for a get away.

"Nice quiet environment."

Was calm. Friendly welcome.

"Nice and clean, quiet place, close to everything!"

I really enjoyed being Martha's guest! She spoils you with delicious rusks, as well as a proper Garies friendliness! It is nice and quiet, yet very close to Paarl and Cape Town. Shops in Klapmuts are just around the corner. I will really recommend it to an individual, as well as a whole family!

"Quiet with enough wood to grill and provide heat."

It is well located and within reach of N1, just 5 minutes. Many attractions in the vicinity.

"Friendly host lady and she made us feel so at home. "

The apartment is a large room surrounded by windows, so it's quite cold in winter. There is a fireplace/braai in the one corner with enough wood. One of the single twin beds is a tad short for a teenager. Only equipped with microwave, no stove. Spacious, modern bathroom. The host went out of her way to make sure everything was fine.

"Got some great rest."

We were treated to a warm welcome. Clean and neat accommodation. We had a great stay and we got some proper rest. We recommend Tuinhuis.

"Not what we expected from the photos."

Owners were not even aware of our booking. Parking about 30 m from the entrance on the other side of the building. Unsafe, no burglar bars. Power failure at about 20:00, never came on again. We didn't sleep well as there were constant hitting and scraping on the roof. We got up at 6 the next morning to get ready to leave. Couldn't prepare anything to eat or make coffee or shower as only 2 candles were available. We had to pack in the dark as the power was still off and left at 6:30. Don't think we'll make use of this facility again.

"Fantastic."

See stars.

"Hospitality from another world, mat very spacious and adequate unit!"

See stars.

"Very nice and private."

Nice place and hostess is very friendly.

"Felt at home on arrival."

You can see that both a man and woman provide their insights with the putting together of the living unit. We immediately felt at home and could relax for 4 days and explore the area. Hospitality was top notch. Ockert and Christa, thanks for everything you did for us.

"Relaxing and peaceful."

Very quaint place, especially with small children who don't want to sleep alone. No TV which is a big bonus. Good family time. Very friendly and helpful owner.

"We were treated like kings! Lovely farm getaway on a working farm."

1. Arrival: We were welcomed not as strangers, but as family. The house was neat and clean with the fans already switched on to make the room a bit cooler on a swelteringly hot day. 2. The kitchen: The fridge had been filled with milk, ice and water. A big bowl with home-made rusks, and all the coffee, tea, rooibos tea and sugar we could need for our stay, was provided. The kitchen part was well equipped. There was even insect poison! Even though there is no stove, we found that the electric pan and microwave was more than sufficient. 3. The living and sleeping areas: Unique architechture with eclectic furniture. A mixture of modern pieces, family artefacts and Swedish wooden furniture. The coloured cement floor helped a lot during the heat wave. 4. Bathroom: Modern and very spacious. Fully equipped with user items. 5. For dog lovers it was nice to be visited by six dogs - not all at once though. The presence of the dogs ensured a feeling of safety. We even went to bed one night without closing the door, nevermind locking it! 6. The owners and staff on the farm were friendly and helpful. The owner even filled the cement pool so that we, two city slickers, could have a swim! What an experience! Summary: It was the perfect weekend for us, a good base from which we could explore Cape Town, Stellenbosch, Franschhoek and Paarl. I really hope we get the chance to stay at Tannie Martha's place again.

"Very quiet and peaceful."

Just what one needs.

"Had a great time."

It was very nice. Nicely fried. Will definitely stay there again.

"Very relaxing for a break away from the city. "

Relaxed, nice if you want to chill out and get some fresh air.

"Very nice stay, just a little far from Paarl."

Very comfortable and very nice stay. The place was just a little far from Paarl and our search was for Paarl. Maybe LekkeSlaap can just take a look at the results when you search for a place to stay in a certain town.

"Clean, tidy spacious unit."

Our stay was nice. Received very hospitably and the accommodation was very comfortable. A little far from big shops, but a wonderfully peaceful atmosphere.

"It was lovely."

We enjoyed our stay at Tuinhuis a lot.

"Not too bad for the price. "

Nice place, but the owner needs to fumigate the place more often for the flies, bugs and spiders all around.

"Pleasant stay, lovely people!"

Cute place, would stay there again! I might just suggest air conditioning.

"Very pleasant and lovely accommodation with, warm welcome, best hospitality!"

Highly recommended if you want to stay outside town.
