Reviews of Thylitshia Villa Country Guesthouse


"Excellent"

(South Africa) LEON LA VITA

"Loved the lovely clean rooms we stayed in. For hot climate air conditioning was important as well as pool and bar fridge.

Great service by owners. Breakfast sustained us till the afternoon.

Loved the fact I could braai on premises on facilities provided by guesthouse."


"Enjoyed our stay"

(South Africa) Steve Neufeld

"The rooms are clean. The breakfast was great. Pool was refreshing on a hot day. Friendly dog and cats. Even a tortoise walking in the garden."


"Wow!"

(South Africa) Mr Botha

"From arrival to departure our stay was an experience to remember.
A loving personal touch was evident throughout.
We were overwhelmed with genuine friendliness.
Dinner is out of this world and adds to the desire to make many return visits. "


"Great stay at the Ostrich Farm"

(Germany) Mrs Knoth

"We (4 adults) really enjoyed our stay. The guesthouse is very nice, the garden beautiful, the service just great and our dinner as well as the drinks were delicious.

"A Ttouch of Class"

(United Kingdom) Ms Mabley

"A nice place to relax and enjoy good service with attention to detail. A warm welcome that is friendly courteous and not too formal with plenty of opportunity to sit or lie in comfort and take in the lovely setting.

"A nice place to relax and enjoy good service with attention to detail. A warm welcome that is friendly courteous and not too formal with plenty of opportunity to sit or lie in comfort and take in the lovely setting. Basil & Gustav - the 2 canine residents also display a languid interest but are not too intrusive.
The pre-dinner aperitif, the white chocolate on the pillow at night (safely wrapped so not noticing won't result in a stickymess) the sparkingly clean car each morning, the closeness to some excellent shopping opportunuties, all go to make this the ideal place for a mini break. We've been there twice and will be back."

"The accommodation, the cleanliness, the welcoming reception, the beautiful garden and the view were superb. It was most appreciated to find in the morning that our car had been cleaned! The restaurant is nicely decorated. The food was good but average. Considering the Guesthouse is a bit far from the town and other restaurants, a little upgrade on the menu would make this place absolutely perfect with an excellent ratio quality/price."


"One Nighter at Thylitshia, Oudsthoorn"

"The Farmhouse Villa, gardens and settings were even more beautiful, mature and spacious as in the photos on the website. As we were flitting though the Garden Route we stayed just one night and had missed the ostrich farm visit which was only at 16:30. However we thoroughly enjoyed the Highgate Ostrich farm the next day.
Our accommodation was very spacious and quaint which will be loved by any UK visitor. However, our friends' suite required a touch of cosmetic maintenance.
The dining room was very nicely furnished and cute in the candlelight for the ostrich supper. One quibble was that a wine price list was not offered although the estate's wine was excellent. Watch out tall people when you serve yourself from the breakfast bar!
The staff was very courteous and prompt. Our car was washed while we had breakfast. The place was more of a hotel standard rather than just a mere B&B.
Excellent place to stay."


"Three great days"

(United Kingdom) Mr Wilson

"Lovely welcome - comfortable clean room - superb service - dramatic thunder storm - what more could one ask ? Philip"


"A warm welcome"

(United Kingdom) Mrs Nevens

"We were delighted with the very warm reception at the guesthouse. The accommodation was roomy and comfortable, with lovely gardens and pool for the children to run around in. Dinner was most enjoyable with a beautifully cooked ostrich steak and good red wine.
Great family accommodation."

"We were disappointed by the cold welcome we received on arrival. We were hurried into our rooms, nothing was explained to us and we were told we would be having ostrich steaks for supper, as if there was no alternative. The comforter on the bed was dirty and the room was freezing.

That said, we certainly enjoyed the attention we received at dinner and indeed the ostrich steaks we had no alternative but to eat. We also sampled the local wit blitz which we thought was a special touch.

We would highly recommend the guest house, if they paid attention to the little things."


"Excellent accommodation."

(United Kingdom) Mr Selby

"Accommodation, food and farm trip excellent. Brilliant to see the young Ostriches. Staff very friendly. Would stay there again if in the area. Could do with a better pool area."
