Thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Looking forward to being back soon. This was an absolute gem as accommodation goes. A bit of old world charm, great hospitality and great food in the restaurant.

Neat and good location to walk through town. Very nice stay and well located for walking through the town. Service was excellent and room beautiful with everything needed.

Netjies en goeie ligging om deur die dorp te stap. Baie lekker verblyf en goed geleë om deur die dorp te stap. Diens was uitstekend en kamer pragtig met alles wat nodig is.

Hearty, artful quick stop. It was a lovely place to stay, the hostess is wonderful and helped us a lot with what to do and enjoy the best of the town. The breakfast was delicious and I would have liked to stay longer.

Hartlike, kunssinnige vinnige stop. Dit was 'n heerlike oorslaapplekkie, die gasvrou is wonderlik en het ons baie gehelp met wat om te doen en die beste van die dorp te geniet. Die ontbyt was heerlik en ek sal graag langer wou bly.

Fantastic. Magical space with a nice lounge and fireplace. The Bethesda is in the middle of the town so you can walk anywhere without walking too far! The host is super friendly and always quick with a suggestion of what to do in town. Would definitely recommend.

The Bethesda was a restful timestop for my soul. For 35 years I've been wanting to see Ms. Helen's owls, but always somehow ended up taking the N12 home to Pretoria. This year was to be different. This year I steered west from Knysna and followed the N9 to Nieu-Bethesda. We were late. Our hostess was our beacon from the start of our journey and brought us safely in for the landing. The road was dark but smoothly tarred - we were quite expecting a dirt road. I'll definitely remember some of the finer details of our stayover. The smile and warm welcome. The sherry waiting in the glass decanter in the arty, colourful lounge. The smell of pea soup coming from the kitchen. The pizza that we telephonically ordered as we drove through Graaff Reinette with Lorraine Mellier from Zalig and her perfect timing to have the pizza ready as a drive-through dinner pick-up for us. We heard people driving through from Beaufort for her pizzas and we were definitely not disappointed. How clear the Milky Way sparkled. The steel-footed bath and the 2-hour soak in fragranced bath salt while reading the laminated life story of Helen Martins and discovering a whole treasure map of things to do in Nieu-Bethesda the next day. The pictures of the cats. The Mebos sweets on the Alice in Wonderland table. The red knitted scarf in the Narnia cupboard. Our tasselled West door key. The dogs that came to greet. The quiet. The smell of filter coffee. The red Persian carpet and matching wingback on the stoep. Wondering what summer would look like. The books in the hallway bookshelf. Working out where the closest airport and car rental was, because flying would be much faster than 9 hours driving next time. The peanut brittle (that did not make it to Bloemfontein). Driving past the Water Tower and the Church and Library before we left for home. I was sure the handmade owls winked / blinked to remind us to come back another time. Same place - just a few days longer!
