Reviews of Rusticana Guest House


"Superb host"

Stewart Lombard

"We were a large group and this place was ideal. "


"Simple, clean accommodation. "

David Winter

"Loved - good value for money
Improvement - it lacked a few basic items (washing-up liquid, etc)"


"Delightful"

James Parrington

"An old and well presented guest house / self catering in Riversdale. Perfect stop-over for investigating the stunning area. Easy access to the restaurants in the area, and a lovely drive to meet up with the R62, or continuing the journey to George/Cape Town."


"Rusticana B&B"

Cherise Delport

"Loved everything about this establishment. You can maybe look at putting up a door in the bathroom, as our room did not have a bathroom door. Everyone likes their privacy."


" Compliment : Quality, Bedding and Towels Beds very comfortable. Fridge and TV"

Prudence Mckie

"Kitchen requires more working space, for a Self catering unit. No stove, so you are forced to Braai. Additional, Electricity Plugs. Crockery and Cutlery requires some upgrade. A coffee table would round off the setup, as there is not Table and Chairs in the Kitchen.

"Kitchen requires more working space, for a Self catering unit. No stove, so you are forced to Braai. Additional, Electricity Plugs. Crockery and Cutlery requires some upgrade. A coffee table would round off the setup, as there is not Table and Chairs in the Kitchen.
Management to be available when guest check out, we slipped, the keys inside the Reception area at 10.00am when leaving. Called the Cellphone No 0834160670 @ 10.09am It is now 19.09pm Nobody has taken the time to call back, to confirm they have found the key lying in the entrance hall, or why we called.
Pool area can be cleaned, water has not been cleaned for sometime.
Wi-fi Code (No Wi-Fi passwords available in the Unit - Leave a printed Pamphlet in the rooms) if their is no one at Reception to answer Guest Questions
DSTV - Satelite TV (Only had Chanel 1,2,3, eTV and a Christian Chanel"

The only comment I have is that more info can be provided on the facilities available so that you can pack properly for the self catering kitchenettes . "

Our room was clean and so was the bedding and towels but had a hiccup in the kitchenand welcomed the air conditioning as it was very hot on the day we arrived. unfortunately we could not stay for breakfast as we still had quite some driving to do before getting to our next destination and had a breakfast on our way. Thanks for a lovely nights sleepover."

"The old house is very nice and furnished with antiques and brick a brak that add atmosphere. Staff were friendly, tho I never saw the owners. Room was comfortable, but there was mould on bathroom ceiling. Breakfast was generous, but very meaty - not much to cater for those not into 'vleis'.The very reasonable tariffs unfortunately meant a different class of visitor in the room next to mine. They played loud 'doef doef' music till midnight, followed by a domestic quarrel, after which he left. Returning around 1 when she had locked him out. Much banging etc ensued. She eventually let him in, whereupon there was a lot more loud argument, then much unpacking, banking etc. Eventually quietened down around three. Till 7am when the music started up again...Also had a visit from a v e r y large rain spider. (I think they are harmless)

"A step back in time! This Victorian house in the middle of the small town of Riversdale has a lot to offer, and if you love antiques and everything from a bygone era, combined with the modern, this is the place for you. The host as well as all the staff is extremely friendly, they make you feel right at home. The 3-course homemade South African dinner is to die for, and the breakfast can be compared with 5 star restaurant quality. I do recommend Rusticana for everyone traveling through Riversdale, the hospitality and old-time charm will definitely captivate you."

The rooms were spacious and the dŽcor interesting, with a variety of olden day bric-a-brac. The beds were incredibly comfortable and we had a wonderful night's rest. Although we had not paid for breakfast, Fanie generously provided us with a meal before we continued with our journey the next morning. I recommend this establishment without any hesitation!"
