This is a lovely place in a fantastic location within easy walking distance of some great restaurants and shops. The room was very clean and the bed was very comfortable.

We are more used to staying in hotels, but Fiona ( my friend) assured me Guest houses in South Africa were to way to go. I can say were we not disappointed. After a long flight from Scotland via Dubai we were warmly greeted byGwen and Johan. We were shown our room and unpacked while we waited for our friends... More

We were two couples - one from Tanzania and one from Scotland - and our first destination in the western Cape was Aan Dorpstraat. We picked this guest house on the strength of other reviews on Trip Advisor and we weren't disappointed. We chose Stellenbosch and Aan Dorpstraat as our first port of call as we'd travelled fairly long distances... More

Others have said it all. Gwen and Johan are great hosts and run an excellent B&B. Very well appointed room. Gwen was happy to spend quite some time giving us helpful advice and we wish we could have stayed longer.

In our opinion, this is the place to stay in Stellenbosch. Very centrally located but still quiet. Our room was super clean and extremely comfortable with a king size bed, crisp cotton sheets, duvet and plenty of pillows. The bathroom was roomy with heated towel rail, thick towels, mixer taps, large shower, bath tub, loo and bidet. Added comforts in... More

I can only confirm what my father said in his review below. It was a perfect stay. Gwen helped me to find and book a hairdresser who was great and very priceworthy. As a student, you might have interest in where all the university people of Stellenbosch hang out. The three largest pub/cafés for student are at the other side... More
