No real complaints about this place....very nice hosts and a really great breakfast. We had a detached building, with aircon, but it was very rustic. Comfortable bed and sitting room, and a basic bathroom. No TV. Walking distance to 2 or 3 good restaurants. A nice pool and a large rambling garden. Would possibly recommend it to friends, with some... more

On the edge of town is this lovely country home with detached little bungalows in the gounds . a lovely setting and the rooms were immaculate and nice welcome touch with a liqueur, mini bar and jacuzzi bath. A lovely bed and wonderful breakfast topped a great little 1 night stay. the owner recommended 4 resturants and made a reservation... more

This is a difficult place to find from the directions on the safarinow.com site I used to book. My advice would be if coming from Cape Town travel along the main street and as you seem to be leaving the town the road forks to the left. Take the fork and Augusta de Mist is immediately on the left. That... more

We stayed for two nights at one of the cottages at Augusta de Mist. Although it was quite rustic, it had everthing we needed and was surrounded by beautiful gardens. The bed was huge with crisp sheets and a cosy mohair blanket at the bottom - not that we needed it. Bath was big enough for two - and candle... more

Great rooms with personal touches, great breakfasts, very friendly hosts. Swellendam is well situated for winetasting trips and exploring the Overberg. more

I have given the Augusta de Mist three stars because it was not particularly to my taste, although I can see why others would find it attractive. The guest house consists of some suites and some separate cottages – we had a small cottage to ourselves, with a lounge, small kitchen area, bedroom and bathroom. The emphasis was on maintaining... more

Stayed here for one night en route to Knysna - this is a lovely guesthouse, although we found Swellendam to be a bit of a one horse town.... and completely full of locusts! Melissa who greeted us was exceptionally helpful. The main house is lovely. We were staying in a cottage on the grounds as the initial room that we... more

Swellendam is a nice little town and we had the perfect place to stay there. Augusta de Mist has everything to make you feel comfortable: up to the details perfectly decorated cottages, an incredible garden, extremly good breakfast, very helpful hosts and great restaurants you can walk to. Even our car was washed one morning after we had been at... more

This place is a real gem. We were a group of 5 staying in 3 rooms. We got a lovely welcome from the receptionist, Melissa. She showed us to our rooms. They were beautifully decorated. I liked the candle beside the bath. The pool looked good but it was far too cold for a swim. I'd imagine it would perfect... more
