The staff, both front office and hired help were super nice, helpful with suggestions, and booked us 3 very different dinner dining experiences. Maybe next time we'll stay at the more upscale Rickety Bridge sister property, 'just because'."


"Excellent location"

(United Kingdom) Victoria Weller

"Really lovely accomodation, 30 minute walk to the town or short taxi ride in the evening (recommended not to walk after dark). The restaurant and wine tasting at Rickerty Bridge (next door) is great too. Would highly recommend this place. Staff helpful and friendly."

"We stayed at Rickety Bridge - the little sister of Basse Provence.

Beautiful location among the vineyards. Extremely welcoming staff. With only three bedrooms it was a very comfortable and calm place to stay. Nice big rooms, big bathroom, small public pool. All very clean and cosy. (if however you like spas, room service and people to fuss over you, go elsewhere as we didn't see much staff presence the whole time we were in the guest house Didn't get to check out the restaurant so can't say anything about the food. Explore the surrounding wineries and go to Franschhoek for dinner. It's just 2 km away and offers great restaurants (often you need a reservation). Perfect place for couples and people who love hideaway places. We'll come back!"


"Fantastic!"

(South Africa) Sarah Sadler

"We had an amazing time at Basse Provence Guest House and will definitely be staying there again."


"Always a nice stay!"

(South Africa) Nadia Boucher

"Sheer bliss"

(South Africa) Kim Petersen

"We only stayed one night, but we can't find fault with anything. It was the perfect romantic getaway. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The Elizabeth Suite was just stunning. Warm and comforting."


"Highly Recommended"

(South Africa) Kim Coop

"Thank you for the lovely hospitality at Basse Provence Guest House. Our stay at the Elizabeth suite was one to remember. I will definitely return in the future."


"Great"

(South Africa) Mike Freyne

"Great accommodation and friendly staff together with location on the Rickety Bridge Wine Estate means we have no problem in fully recommending this Guest House. If we return to the region we would definitely visit again. Thanks Shani for making our stay enjoyable."

"It was good to get out of the City, Cape Town, and into the country. We were welcomed by Nicky, with a glass of sherry, then we were shown our suite, the Elizabeth, which was all that it was claimed to be: clean, serviced with the necessary available drinks in the mini bar. A welcomed great bath," bubbles and all"! Being out of season, we were the only couple in the lodge on the Friday night and had the run of the place.
The staff on duty were really great, supplying information on the surrounds and eateries. We had a good full breakfast, then a visit of this charming town.
We chose the Rickety Bridge of luncheon, great wine and food.
Next visit to this area will be to Basse Provence Guest House. We can only but recommend this stay.

"Warm welcome from Naiomi, choice of sherry or port, and arrangements made for dinner. French Connection in town was wonderful, excellent flavoured food, and reasonable prices. Much better than the Reubens where we ate on our 2nd night. Manor rooms were clean and very confortable. Plenty of additional sitting areas, and even allowed us to use the internet to keep in touch back home. Will recommend to friends visiting the area."

"We had happy memories of Basse Provence having stayed there 4 years ago. Returning we thoroughly enjoyed the quiet , well appointed and well cared for accommodation. The ambience is most tranquil, the surrounding valley immensely beautiful with interesting places to visit and some splendid restaurants . We were made to feel most welcome,the beakfasts were superb, the care of our room thorough but discreet. The smiling staff were genuinely interested in our day and we appreciated the quiet work of the gardeners maintaing the glorious flowerbeds and the night watchman ensuring security.
The recent change of ownership has been smoothly effected and the staff were all happy with the new management. It remains a vey special place. We would gladly return!!"

"Our nice "get-away""

(South Africa) Mrs Phillips

"We were well surprised with Basse Provence. The service was excellent and we felt "at home" from the beginning! The staff really made sure that all our needs were met. The room was spacious and clean. A quiet get-away (just what we wanted). We would definitely recommend it!!
Thank you."

"We had two beautiful days at Basse Provence, in May. We could not use the swimming pool because of the weather but the location was beautiful. The room is very spacious, the under floor heating was wonderful in the morning. My only complaint would be the toilet not being totally isolated or separate from the room and the shower was a bit small. The jet bath made up for this 100%. Service was good and ambiance was just right for our honeymoon."


"Excellent service"

(United Kingdom) Ms Younge

"We had a wonderful stay with friendly staff and a hearty breakfast on the patio.
The room was very spacious in the loft and very quiet. "

"The accommodation was certainly very nice; however, as we were 2 couples traveling together, we would have enjoyed a quiet drink later in the evening. We felt we couldn't do that since there was not a common area inside which wouldn't disturb the guests who had their room directly joining this common area (lounge). There was an outside area, however, at the time of our visit, there seemed to be a plague of small flying insects which forced us to go inside and we felt we would disturb the other guests if we chose to do that after 22h00. Also, we were disappointed the manager did not advise us she was leaving the premises late afternoon and we would have a security guard and dog. She needed to advise us when we arrived who else was at the Guesthouse and who would be "coming and going" during the evening. Otherwise, the bed was clean and comfortable as was both our rooms."
