Barbara and Johan are excellent hostess, they made me feel at home from the very moment I entered their Guesthouse. The Dinner and breakfast were excellent both with a personal touched. Barbaras Sago and Rose essence desert were the best taste ever. At breakfast she served her home-made muesli and fresh baked Seed bread, this is "Out of the Books" a must taste.

Our host Barbara, was excellent. She ensured that we were able to change our booking date and was prepared to provide an early breakfast on our departure date.

Proactive for arrival, informs upfront what is not available in the town (like fuel) so you can be prepared upfront. Available and helpful by phone with directions (first time visitor). Felt at home from the moment I arrived, super friendly hosts and so accommodating and friendly. Guided me to restaurants where I could have dinner in town (I'm vegetarian). Accommodated me for vegetarian breakfast and the time I wanted to eat. Rooms are super comfy with electric blankets, heaters (room & bathroom), feather duvets (I slept like a baby). I asked about several things in town, the host assisted with all the answers. I'm going back to the establishment for a longer stay next time. I can definitely recommend this establishment and town - you will not regret it!
