Pleasant guest house in centre of Prince Albert.
Lovely little guest house quite near the centre of town with very cordial hosts. The courtyard particularly was a little oasis of clam. We only stayed one night as we were passing through, but would certainly stay again should the opportunity rise.

A lovely stay
Our one night stay at Onse Rus guesthouse was an absolute pleasure. Room was bright, well appointed, comfortable and clean. Small touches were evident, for example the low lights in the room had been switched on prior to our arrival. The guest house and grounds are beautiful and well kept. Breakfast was delicious with several choices available. Would definitely stay again and recommend to anyone.

Prince Albert oasis
We stayed here for one night last week and thoroughly enjoyed our stay either by the pool or in a local restaurant which we could walk to. Lisa was most helpful in giving us accurate and detailed directions for our onward trip over the Swartberg Pass.

Kuscheliges Haus mit Herz auf dem Weg n.Oudtshoorn
Eine sehr freundliche Gastgeberin empfing uns. Wir erhielten ein Upgrade in eine Suite, nur das Bad war etwas klein. Die Gastgeberin hatte schon ein Restaurant für den Abend reserviert und die Airkondition im Zimmer lief, es war angenehm kühl und die AC war leise und störte nicht. Das Frühstück war sehr gut, mit Schwarzbrot, nett gedeckt im schönen Garten . Es hat uns sehr gut gefallen!

Leuk en gastvrij B&B
Leuk en gastvrij B&B in Prince Albert in een serie oude historische panden. Goed zwembad in rustige binnentuin. Gastvrouw is zeer attent: zag dat 's avonds een lampje in de auto nog brandde en belde naar het restaurant waar we zaten te eten om ons er op te laten attenderen. Uitstekend ontbijt. Eigen parkeerplaats op openbare weg,

Charming guesthouse in a historic setting
This place exceeded our expectations in many ways. The guesthouse is very charming and dates back to the early 19th century. Our room was actually a very spacious multi-room bungalow with a gorgeous thatched straw ceiling and lovely art. The hostess clearly pours her heart and soul into her business. We cannot recommend this place enough!
