"We were welcomed warmly on a cold rainy day by Alta and Poppie, after which we were welcomed also by the owner Cedric.As artists ourselves, my daughter and I feasted our eyes on the rich heritage of art and old-worldly charm of the sand-stone and mud-brick structure of this lovely venue. We were caught up pleasantly in an era long gone by. Our room was quaint and luxurious and were told breakfast at the early hour we required was no problem.We were welcomed at the owner's restaurant as if we were part of the community and treated to wonderful food and company the night before the competition and was very reluctant to leave the next day.
We will most certainly return to the warm hospitality of Rosenhof and the Paul Roux people. Thank you Cedric, Alta, Poppie and all the others involved in our stay, hope to see you again very soon."


"Rustic and tranquil"

(South Africa) Elle Varalda

"We stayed here for two nights over the Easter weekend while visiting a friend who lives in Paul Roux. Rosenhof is a very rustic tranquil country hotel with antique furniture. Poppy checked us in and kept us informed and made us a lovely breakfast every morning."

"Paul Roux - who knew?"

Cedric (the owner) is a collector of note, original art, memorobilia, vintage cars, you name it and this is reflected in the interior design. We relaxed over supper on the cool..."

"A step back in time to old world hospitality in a building that has been lovingly restored and with the most amazing decor. Cedric (the owner) is a collector of note, original art, memorobilia, vintage cars, you name it and this is reflected in the interior design. We relaxed over supper on the cool front stoop and were entertained by his wonderful anecdotes and history of the area. A pity we had only booked in for one night, we will definitely be back!"


"Overnight stay"

(South Africa) Michael Jay

"Very good, excellent breakfast. Cedric the owner was unfortunately in hospital, but well looked after by Mariette."


"Relaxed and homely"

(South Africa) Billy Vorster

"Relaxed, good personal service and not your run of the mill franchise or chain group. The day I left I even found my car had been washed. Big breakfast. A country feel filled with furniture from yesteryear."


"Wonderful find"

"Our thanks to Cedric and his staff for their hospitality, friendliness and relaxed way of making guests feel at home away from home. Everyone went the extra mile to sort out any requests/queries. We really enjoyed our 11-night stay with bed and a whopper of a breakfast each day. Although we learnt the lodge does not cater for supper at this stage, we found the food at 'The Rock' pub excellent value for money. Incidently he owns this as well. The furniture and paintings/ornaments really complement the old-style ambiance of of the sandstone buildings which are characteristic of the area. If the opportunity arose we would be quite happy to stay there again!"
