"Amazing old house which has pretty much been kept as it would have been all those years ago. It has been in the family for some time now.

You are really staying in the family's house with separate entrances to the rooms. That, of course comes with all the family pets and chatting to the owners too. Listening to Anthony tell me a quick history of the house and the current drought struggles was interesting.

We felt like we could have a family game of soccer on the lawn with no problem at all - the location is really beautiful.

We had a delicious breakfast at the house.

The house does need some basic maintenance but that certainly won't detract from your stay.

Aliwal North has a couple of places to eat so all in all a good place to stay over. "

"Beautiful old farmhouse, in a tranquil setting, felt like we were transported back a hundred years. Hosts were very friendly and breakfast was good. Overnighted but would have loved to have had extra time to explore some more. "

"What a beautiful home to spend the night in!! I spent some time in the early evening just watching the sun setting, with the three family dogs keeping me company.

"What a beautiful home to spend the night in!! I spent some time in the early evening just watching the sun setting, with the three family dogs keeping me company. This house has been lovingly preserved, and it felt as though I had stepped back in time. Lovely to have a friendly host, who personally prepared our breakfast. I would certainly recommend Conville to anyone either passing through Aliwal North, or intending to spend some time investigating this interesting little town. "

"My husband and I had the pleasure to spend some time at this little piece of paradise. I fell in love with the home and the hospitality offered by the owners. Some parts of this exquisite home need some repair but as a whole, our experience was absolutely wonderful."

"Beautiful old house with big,cleanrooms. Breakfast was good! Affordable for a family of five."

Adequate breakfast was served to us before our departure. Our hostess was very caring in helping one of our party to attend to a wound which she got in a horse riding accident."

"An old farm-house and you are made to feel part of the comings and going. Dont expect 5 star plushness, but rather old worldly authenticity and a peak into living 100 years ago! Beautifully cool rooms in the heat and our family unit was just perfect of our needs. And so reasonably priced! "

"A really charming place, which made me feel like I was staying in a stately home or a luxurious castle! The rooms were enormous and we were all very comfortable, the breakfast was great and the view from the house over the lake and countryside was beautiful. Highly recommended!"

"Beautiful scenery with a historical homestead. Friendly service. Relaxed atmosphere to have a retreat. Quiet and safe."

"A quiet location just minutes from town made Conville very attractive. The lovely location was a bonus as was the helpful hosts. We appreciated the opportunity to just sit and enjoy the pond and the bird life before heading to the pub for a meal."

"The Conville homestead is astonishing and it would have been interesting to have received some information on the house and the family."

"Enjoyed our stay at Conville. Lovely old family home and very welcoming. The rooms were comfortable and the veranda lovely to relax on and enjoy the view. We would certainly return if in the area."

"Our family of four stopped over on a trip from Gauteng to the coast. We were in two adjacent rooms. Both very comfortable. We packed a picnic for late afternoon when we arrived there. Beautiful setting with large garden overlooking a dam. Breakfast was great."

"We stopped over for a night on our way to Grahamstown from Johannesburg and plan on doing so next time. The place is even better than the photos on the website. It's a beautiful place full of charm. There were six of us travelling and everyone loved the place."

"Beautiful setting, very relaxed. Highly recomended!"
