Jan Harmsgat Country House is set in a historic 17th-century farmhouse surrounded by the Langeberg Mountains and the Breede River.

The staff at the hotel were 10/10, they couldn’t be nicer nor more helpful if they tried. The food isn’t five star gourmet meals, but it’s very tasty. The wine was great, and we did a tasting on the day we arrived which we enjoyed immensely.

Offering an outdoor pool, Cypress Cottage is located in Swellendam. Free WiFi access is available. Private bathroom also comes with a bath or shower.

Our family suite was very spacious and fully equipped. The beds were fitted with electric blankets too. The common spaces were beautifully appointed and we loved lounging by the pool. The location is within walking distance to supermarkets and restaurants, and only 5 mins drive to Marloth nature reserve. The hosts were generous and thoughtful, gave us many good recommendations on the neighborhood.

A Riverbed Guest house in Swellendam has 4-star accommodations with an outdoor swimming pool and barbecue facilities.

It was a beautiful property with a lovely room. The salt pool was so inviting and the perfect temperature. The lush garden and river on the side of the property gave it a destination feel.

    Comfortable, safe little town with much to offer, two nights minimum stay I would suggest. Very convenient also as a stopover on the way back to Capetown, or indeed travelling in the opposite direction.

    Swellendam is a stunning town.

    Swellendam is a stunning town. All the comforts you need are there and at the same time you can get away into the mountains and outer areas. There are good restaurants and coffee shops and great activities around the area. Mountain biking is what I would go for, but our stay was too short. Lots of history and my family and I were surprised at what this town had to offer. We normally just drive past, but was great to stay over.

    A beautiful little town with a lot to see, do and eat.

    A beautiful little town with a lot to see, do and eat. The restaurants are top notch. We ate at De Vagebond for Supper their food was fantastic with great and friendly service, then we had breakfast at La Belle Alliance their view, food and service were tops. We also had a breakfast at Aan de Eike Guest House, it is a beautiful modern restaurant with lekker food and friendly service. The town is so clean and absolutely beautiful. We love going there. Activities for big and small go to the Fairy Garden. Swellendam is definitely a town to visit!

    Lots of people use this as a one night stop to break their journeys. That is fine, but I would honestly stay an extra night if you are not in a rush. Great place to relax and enjoy their excellent food and hospitality.

    We liked everything, and also had a lovely time at Christelle's restaurant - thoroughly recommend. Very nice people at both venues. Swellendam is also very interesting and friendly, and indeed a very pretty town.

    A lovely small estate in an 1801 property. Must impressed with Swellendam, a lovely old town with some great buildings. De Kloof had some beautiful gardens and the pool area particularly nice. Breakfast served was excellent. Staff all most kind and delighted, and surprised to have my car cleaned. Quite unexpected. Our room was separate from the main house, all named after a different grape. Sauvignon Blanc was our suite. Huge bathroom. Would stay here again and highly recommend.

    Super layout with 2 large bedrooms, front and back patios to relax on in the sun, lovely braai area, dishwasher and washing machine in the kitchen. Bathrooms were great and lots of towels (bath and for swimming). Beds were very comfortable. Unit is in walking distance to the Drosty Museum, Happily coffee shop, Bokmakiri and La Belle Alliance, as well as Grace and Merci and the Saturday Farmer's market.
