This charming cluster of Colonial-style buildings with decorative gables has been converted into a wonderful place to stay with every comfort imaginable. The interior of the upper-floor suite we were in was very chic, with ultra-modern furnishings and the most gorgeous, spacious bathroom. It also had a smart kitchen - we could have stayed for days. The pool looked delightful... more

We stayed here for 1 night whilst on our honeymoon touring south africa. The room was beautiful, we stayed in the morning sky suite, and very spacious. The grounds were beautiful and peaceful. We had a great recommendation from the owners for dinner (La Sosta - italien restaurant about 15 mins walk away) and breakfast there was delicious. more

We just stayed for one night at Rothman Manor en route from Cape Town to Knysna and it was a perfect stopover. Andreas and Franzisca made us feel so welcome and work hard to make sure everything is just right. We stayed in one of the smaller rooms, but there is great attention to detail - everything was lovely, and... more

I can only add what others have written: it's a wonderful place. The owners have created everything with love and taste. The service (especially housekeeping) was the best we experienced during our trip. The garden is beautiful as well and now I stop describing details just resume: excellent! more

We stayed in the Deluxe room which is just wonderful. There is a full size reception area, kitchen and a hugh bedroom and bathroom. The decoration is very tastefully... more

The... more

We only booked one night here, whilst travelling the garden route. However, having seen the rooms and the beautiful grounds we wished we had stayed for a second night. The room we had was enormous and beautifully clean and stylish. Andreas and his wife were excellent hosts and breakfasts were substantial. However, the best bit was the grounds and the... more

We stayed at Rothman manor for two nights. We booked the small room which was actually quite small but fine. The garden of the manor was very nice with a large pond full of birds. Two zebra’s and two springbok at the back of the garden made the picture complete. The house cat was also very friendly. The owners were... more

If your route takes you any where near Swellendam then a stay at Rothman Manor is a must. The gardens are just lovely, complete with swimming pool, flower beds, lily pond and zebras (obviously in a separate area). If it’s too cold to swim, which is was when we were there, you can always soak in the hot outdoor jacuzzi... more
