As an extra there is a communal living room with coffee and tea making facility and a fridge. The guest house is centrally located with minimal traffic noise and an ideal location for exploring wineries in Elgin and Bot River. Exceptional good value for money. "

" WE did not stay at Swan Gables but were referred to Kitty Paws

We were on a Car Club Rally and so only stayed overnight.

The accommodation was quite fascinating as it went on for ever but set out in a most unusual way.

On our return from a late afternoon meeting we found a lovely ginger kitty lying on the RR (where it was warm) waiting for our return. So lovely.

Everywhere was clean and accommodating. "

"Thea was very helpful and changed my room when I asked for a fridge. Very accommodating. It was so hot so it was much appreciated. 3 days was a bit much but all in all I was quite satisfied."

" When I arrived it seems as if I was only expected the next day. I was moved out onto a farm 6km outside Botrivier.

It turned out to be a gem. certainly will be back.

"The owner Thea was extremely pleasant and helpful. Our bedroom was large enough, the bed was excellent and the shower hot. We also has cotton sheets on the bed which makes a huge difference.The room had a kettle and coffee/ tea making facilities as well as its own little fridge.

For the price..."
