Stanford Hills Estate

Breathtaking.

We loved our stay at Stanford Hills Estate. We had our dog with us and we liked that they have a fenced area for our dog. Beautiful views, beautiful accommodation. Had everything you needed.

We had a good stay.

We had a good stay. The weather (no one's fault) did not allow us to enjoy the unit as much as we would have liked, but the DSTV and WiFi were a saving grace for the first 2 days. The unit is self-catering and fully equipped with everything that is needed. The unit was spacious, neat, and well-decorated. The unit also had a closed-off yard perfect for guests with pets and children. We were given a complimentary 5 litres of water and a bag of wood, which was appreciated. The staff were great, friendly, and readily available for any assistance or concerns. The unit is on a farm, so there are gravel roads leading to the unit. The condition of the roads wasn't too bad, but the rain certainly does affect this; future guests should keep this in mind. I would also suggest that the owners close the patio for guests to enjoy the braai area on rainy days too. Overall we had a good stay and made the most of our time there despite the weather. Thank you for hosting us.

Cosy and private retreat.

Magical stay at Sylvia cottage - super cosy and private and awesome for our little doggy (enclosed garden).

Loved the location and people.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay. My cousin took the cottage next to us. From the services and warm welcome to the beautiful view, we had an awesome time. However, two disappointing things - no TV and electric kettle (the kettle is not major though) - the TV I had an issue with especially at night.

Gemaklik, gerieflik en wonderlike plek vir net ontspan.

Ons het baie lekker gebly by Stanford Hills Estate se Villa cottage. Baie goed toegerus, en alles voel eintlik heel nuut. Sal dit graag aanbeveel. Dit is twee cottages aanmekaar - so moenie 100% privaatheid verwag nie - maar dit het ons eintlik glad nie gepla nie.

We could not get the internet to work, so no TV, which frustrated us.

Very comfortable and quiet, which we sought. We loved the pet-friendly accommodation. We did not use the hot tub, so cannot comment here. It was off the patio and cold wind blowing. I would brick up the wall between the cottage wall and braai as the wind blew through there and made us cold on the patio.

Rustige wegbreek.

Die Stanford Hills Estate is privaat en het 'n pragtige uitsig. Die kaggel verhit die kothuis goed en die houtvuur-warmbad is 'n pluspunt. Mens kan op die plaas stap en daar is 'n restaurant.

Highly recommended but will next time stay at the Africamps part - (more space).

Fantastic! Scenic, friendly, including doggo and just a great location to relax!

A wonderful stay in a tranquil setting. Great space for pets, hot tub was a hit!

The views were amazing! Went with hubby and our 2 dogs, so Stanford Hills Estate was perfect having a large fenced off area for them. Family joined and booked the Brunia lodge, so that was also great to have separate spaces but Stanford Hills Estate was larger and more suitable spacewise to eat and socialise together. The staff were super friendly and accommodating in assisting us. Love that the restaurant was also pet friendly.

Mooi, gerieflik, maar die warmbad is nutteloos.

Die plekkie was goed toegerus en niks het gekort nie. Die bed het heerlik en warm geslaap. Ons het lekker by die onsite restaurant. Die personeel is almal vriendelik. Ons het verblyf gekies op grond van 'n warmbad beskikbaarheid. As hier nie 'n warmbad was nie, sou ons nie die keuse gemaak het om hier te bly nie. Die warmbad was egter teleurstellend. Ons het 4 groot kratte vol hout en die sak hout wat hulle verskaf het, gebruik en dit was hopeloos. Die konsep werk nie. Daar is nie instruksies oor hoe om die bad te gebruik nie (- ek het laataand 'n WhatsApp gestuur om te probeer uitvind of ons iets verkeerd doen, buiten vir net die vuur maak en die water roer). Daar is nie 'n pomp om die water te sirkuleer nie. Ons het die water geroer met die houtspaan, maar dit was nutteloos. Die kol-kol warmbad konsep is baie meer effektief as wat hulle hier in plek het. Ja, dit is winter, en sekerlik werk dit beter in somer, maar nietemin - hoeveel hout moet mens opgebruik, teen watter koste, om iets te geniet waarvoor jy betaal het?

Baie luuks splinternuut. Duur meubels, maar warm water is 'n probleem.

Het gasgeiserprobleme gehad gedurende die twee dae van ons verblyf. Die personeel kon dit nie regkry nie. Gelukkig het ons die volgende dag 'n spesialis laat kom wat gehelp het. Ons het uiteindelik 'n manier gevind om met moeite warm water te kry. Die probleem is dat hulle nie na die spesialis se raad oor die koppeling met gasbottels luister nie. Daar is twee geysers op een aangesluit.

Wonderlike.

Was fantasies en sal vir seker weer terug gaan. Die villas is pragtig en baie netjies. Die personeel is regtig baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig.

Lekker rustige kuier op 'n pragtige blom- en wynplaas - mooi uitsig en lekker cosy cottage.

Ons het heerlik ontspan. Ver gestap tussen blomme en wingerde. Wyngeproe en gebraai. Eienaars baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Sal definitief weer daar gaan bly vir 'n langer periode.

Rejuvenated, feel like a new person afresh.

We were a group of friends and family that celebrated my mother's 60th bday. The scenery and location is absolutely amazing. The weekend was too short to experience everything Stanford has to offer.

Stunning location with everything a family needs for a relaxing holiday.

Wow. This was our second stay at Stanford Hills. This time our teenagers took along friends so we booked the Manor House. We can't wait to go back! The house is absolutely stunning, it has everything you need and more. I'm very fussy and hate staying anywhere that is not cleaned to my standard, I'm always cleaning before unpacking while hubby takes the kids to look around. Not here. I felt at home right away. Super clean, crisp white bedding and super comfy beds. My only negative was that there were no heaters apart from the main fireplace. It's a big old house and we were very cold at night. The water bottles were a nice touch and we would have suffered without them! But a gas heater or a little blow heater just to warm the room after a bath would have been nice.

Pragtig in fynbos-omgewing met 4 seisoene in een dag.

Die woonstelle is goed geleë tussen fynbos-landerye. Pragtige uitsig op die rivier. Gerieflik naby Stanford. Waarde vir geld.

The vibe is to die for, we really enjoyed our stay.

See stars.

The stay was okay.

The accommodation was average but I found certain essential things missing, like no TV, no ice trays. no oven gloves, no tray, no braai utensils, luckily I brought my own, no salt and pepper set had to request from the reception but was not dropped off as suggested, no bath soap,.

Pragtige plek, lieflike ligging.

Sien sterre.

Lovely cottage and great restaurant.

My friend and I went on a little road trip and decided to spend 3 nights in Stanford. We decided on Stanford hill for close proximity to town and onsite restaurant with excellent food was most enjoyable.

Fabulous accommodation, friendly staff.

Our group of 13 spent a weekend at the Manor house and Sylvia cottage. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the beautiful, comfortable and well appointed accommodation in such stunning surroundings of the lovely Stanford Hills Estate. We highly recommend this wonderful venue.

Bekostigbare verblyf op mooi plaas en in pragtige omgewing.

Oulike huisie, maar het werk nodig. Geleë in 'n wonderlike area op 'n pragtige werkende plaas. Baie lekker gebly.

Fijn verblijf in prachtig gelegen cottage.

We hadden eerst de trailer geboekt, doe dit niet, voor dat hij grondig is gerenoveerd! Gelukkig konden we omboeken en verbleven we in een prachtige cottage met goeie voorzieningen. Alleen de verdeelstekker in de woonkamer moet vervangen worden. Mooie natuur, vogeltjes, rust. Lekker buiten zitten, prima kookvoorzieningen. Onze kleine van 1 jaar kon (nadat we de stekker hadden afgeschermd) prima rondkruipen door het huis.

Ons het baie lekker gekuier.

Ons het baie lekker gekuier. My dogter van 7 het met skok gevra waar die TV is toe ons instap, maar dit was heerlik om net mekaar se geselskap te geniet. Als was mooi skoon en almal was vriendelik. My vrou was baie bly oor die pragtige bos proteas. Sien julle weer binnekort.

Zero kliëntediens.

Na 'n aand se slaap is daar vyf Stanford Hills-werknemers in die ontvangsgebou. Twee is op sosiale media. Een kam haar hare. Een vat jou geld. Nul vra of jou verblyf okei was.

Verblyf goed, maar personeel baie vriendelik maar uiters swak.

Eers nie kothuis gekry waarvoor ons gevra het. Betaal vir DStv maar geen TV beskikbaar. Later terugbetaal. Wynproe uiters swak. Bottels moes baie lank oopgestaan het en wyn het oksideer. Verskillende wyne in dieselfde glas met geen water of iets om palet skoon te maak. Persoon het baie min kennis van produk. Wyn word nie higiënies bedien. Vryf bek van bottel warm met kaal hand. Webblad sê wynproe is gratis. Prys R40 per persoon.

Awesome, kan jou skoene uittrek en rus.

Ons het dit baie geniet, veral dat ons hondjie saam ons kon gaan. Ons het 'n omheinde kothuis gehad en sy was ook veilig as sy gespeel het. Kon glad nie uitgekom het nie. Die kothuis het 'n wonderlike uitsig, die wind het nogal gewaai toe ons daar was, maar ons het die stoep en uitsig baie geniet.

Heerlik.

Alles was 100% en ons het heerlik gebly.

Heerlik en ontspannend!

Lekker rustige plaas atmosfeer en oulike speelparkie vir die kinders.

Baie goeie waarde vir geld!

Ons sal verseker weer terugkom in die winter! Lyk soos die ideale snoesige winterwegbreekplekkie!

Rustig, mooi en die wyn fantasties!

Sien die sterre.

Baie lekker!

Sal altyd weer terug gaan. Baie mooi, rustig en kalm.

Lieflike ligging. Opknapping nodig. Onaangename reuke was 'n probleem.

'n Baie vreedsame ligging. Ideale plek om batterye te gaan laai. Fasiliteite benodig opknapping.

Mooi uitsig, maar stort werk nie.

Ons eers die Vrydagaand laat daar aangekom aangesien ons tot laat werk, dus net neergesit en in dorp toe gegaan om daar te gaan eet by restaurant waar ons bespreek het. Toe ons terugkom, wou ons warm stort vat, maar tot ons groot teleurstelling het daar net druppels water by stort uitgekom. Ons moes weer die volgende oggend vroeg ry, dus nie tyd gehad om te wag dat iemand kom kyk nie, moes dus eers die middag gaan stort by volgende bestemming. Ek voel jy betaal op 'n Vrydagaand net vir slaapplek en warm stort, dus teleurstellend.
