Room with a fantastic view
Our stay was very enjoyable, the balcony to our bedroom was amazing and when in Oudtshoorn we will stay here again. I most liked the early morning having a cup of tee before the hot sun rose.

The Guesthouse is jut outside the town centre (10 min walk/3 min drive) in a quiet built up area. Our host, George, was an absolute delight, very helpful and knowledgeable about the area - recommending various "must do" attractions in our two days in Oudsthoorn. Our breakfast was cooked to order and was a great start to our day. George invited us to use the pool, enjoy the barbeque facility and generally make the most of the facilities. Quite honestly, it was more like staying with friends than being a guest. Couldn't have been nicer

A Hidden Gem In Oudtshoorn
We really love this clean, cozy & lovely B&B, it's a hidden gem in Oudtshoorn!! The owner is very hospitable, he shows us around its compound and makes simple yet delicious breakfast 🍳😊👍 He recommends us nice spot for lunch and dinner around the area too. Truly an unforgettable stay, we will be back.

Definitely a recommendation to anyone visiting Oudthoorn. Our hosts, George, made it a pleasant stay, also advising us on "what to do and see", and gave us a warm welcome and farewell. If you just want to relax, Miles B&B have all the tranquility and facilities. The room was comfortable, with wifi, a kettle (with coffee sugar and milk), small stove and even an iron. Plenty of braai areas on the premises, including a fire pit surrounded by nice green trees, for those that just want to feel cozy at night around a fire. Within walking distance from shops and restaurants. We will definitely stay at Miles, should we return to Oudthoorn in the near future. Regard Frank, Cape Town

Good morning, Thank you for the review, we appreciate it. Indeed, during winter extra heating is important and therefore the room is equipped with air-conditioning with a heat function, there were an electric blanket on the bed, besides the warm and cosy through, and a extra blanket in the wardrobe.

The owners were gracious and the place was clean, the guest next to us talked loudly all afternoon and night, which made it hard to relax, and sleep.

Good morning, David Thank you for taking the time to review us. Indeed, the room that you have stayed in is painted in quite a dark colour, however it does compliment the beautiful original art deco furniture that used to belong to the owners (a wedding gift to themselves in 1972). Even so, I am sure that even though the room is painted quite dark, that there is a lot of natural light entering the room from the window that faces the balcony. We hope that you have had a lovely stay in South Africa! All the best for the new year ahead! Regards, Lana Miles

We were late arriving but Lima was so helpful with recommendations and even rang local restaurants for us. She also left a complimentary bottle of champagne in our chalet as we were on honeymoon. The accommodation is centrally located and is beautifully designed and decorated throughout, the pool area is exquisite. Such luxury meant we didn't want to leave! Would highly recommended!

Great place to stay
This is a great place to stay and use as a base for exploring the area. We had two double rooms and each room was fab. We had everything we needed and the breakfast was lovely. The owners and staff were fab and friendly. Plus pointed us in the direction of local restaurants and places to see and took time to book us on a Canvo Cave tour. As for the garden and pool area I just wanted to spend more time sitting next to the pool and explore the garden. We will be back to visit ☺

Easy stay for a couple of days
We stayed in Oudtshoorn for 2 days and found this B&B. It is a nice place with garden and pool and fantastic breakfast. The owner is very helpful and recommends activities and restaurants. The rooms are simple and ok. The downstairs rooms don‘t have an AC (only a fan) therefore it was quite hot at night.

Good afternoon, Thank you for reviewing us. Indeed, the rooms downstairs do not have air-conditioning (only fans), because it is so much cooler in the rooms on ground level. However, Oudtshoorn was tremendously hot the last few weeks. We hope you have enjoyed the sunshine Oudtshoorn offers almost all year round. Lana Miles

Tolles B&B in ruhiger Lage
Die Inneneinrichtung versetzt einen in eine frühere Zeit, sehr angenehm und geschmackvoll. Der Ruhe suchende entspannt an einem tollen Pool und der Aktivere hat einige Schritte ins Stadtzentrum. Die Lage ist ausgezeichnet um die im Umfeld liegenden Attraktionen gut zu erreichen. Der freundliche Service zum Frühstück gibt dem Tag eine erste tolle Note und so fangen meistens sehr gute ereignisreiche Tage an. Ich kann dieses B&B nur wärmstens weiterempfehlen.
