The staff were particularly friendly, helpful and hospitable. Unfortunately I was badly bitten in the night, maybe a spider or two, it's now 2 days later and my legs are badly swollen from the bites.

The Manor House 's response
Dear Amanda
Thank you for your stay at the Manor House on 03/09/2023. Regarding your review, please note that we have absolutely no control when it comes to the establishing and growing of Informal Settlements. This is a huge concern, not only in our village of Sir Lowry's Pass but also across South Africa. We understand that this may have been a little unsettling for you as you are possibly new to the area but I can assure you that we have some lovely families living there. We as an establishment have worked very closely with the charity organizations from the informal settlement and have done our best to support them whenever possible. We love our little village and the people that reside there. Regarding our confusing booking system, this was due to misunderstandings and/or possible miscommunication which we apologize for.
Best regards
Knorhoek Manor House.

Century-old living experience in Knorrhoek Mansion. Warm hospitality and delicious food.
We arrived at this beautiful old Cape Dutch mansion with its beautiful gables between midnight and 1am on a Sunday morning, after a drive through the slightly 'sketchy' informal settlement called Sir Lowryspas, complete with street drunks etc. Since we were late, the friendly manager had already made arrangements with us earlier where we could get the keys and also left directions where our room would be. The room was well furnished, but we were slightly disappointed in the quality of the beds [have had better at other places]. Everything else had been very good. The next morning, the manager explained to us that they are in the process of replacing all the beds with new ones, that they have only been managing the beautiful place for one year and that Covid-19 has hampered their planning a bit. The breakfast we enjoyed there was top notch, with great service from the staff. The atmosphere of this old-world gabled mansion, which was already built here in the Hottentots-Hollandberge in 1795, is something that stays with you all the time. Hope to stay here again and see the century-old oaks again. The biggest surprise for us was to find out that the cost of our delicious breakfast was included in our overnight accommodation costs, which were already very affordable at R440 for 2 people per night.

Hi Jonathan,
You were very clearly in the wrong and were asked politely to leave 3 times.
When you refused and chased my staff away, I had no option but to be firm with you when you still had not departed hours after check out time and had settled in for the day making braais, parking on the lawn, using the cottage facilities.
If you feel that you were treated unfairly, I am sorry, but you and your group were very rude to my staff.

Very disappointed, expected much more.
When we arrived there was a lot of noise from the day visitors (nothing on the website that day visitors are allowed). Then I had to run through a spreader to get to the front door. On inspection of the pool we had to find out that the day visitors had taken it over. Later that evening when we wanted to go swimming, we saw that the water was very dirty and oily from use by the day visitors. Our room had no air conditioning, only a small fan, also no fridge in the room (it was about 37 degrees). The 2nd room where our children aged 22 and 20 slept was terribly small and had another smaller fan which made no difference whatsoever. With the first shower, the shower head came off. On the plus side the surroundings are very nice and peaceful (after the day visitors have left), unfortunately you have to drive through Sir Lowrys Pas Village to get to the guest house. So overall not a very good experience.

Peaceful and relaxed in a beautiful, old-world farm setting.
One gets the feeling that you are isolated in a hidden corner of the Cape where the hectic life cannot reach you. The decor is simple, functional and elegant. With the opening of a door or a window, you are outside in peaceful nature. A request for comfort access due to recent leg surgery was attended to and we were moved to a more comfortable room at no extra charge, even though we were willing to pay more.

Hi there,
I am sorry you were not happy with the room, but it is a cheapest budget room and we do advertise it as such.
The rooms downstairs are much larger and more comfortable, but of course slightly more expensive.
We have never had a problem in the village or the on road coming to the Estate. We ask guests to check in before dark too.
Hope you see you soon again

Above expectation good!
Friendly reception and what a beautiful environment, you can see the management goes out of their way to keep things in good condition and it already makes you feel at home, the weather cooperated nicely and our stay was like a fantastic trip, and so it should be! Thanks to all the staff for a nice effort.

Baie rustig.

Very calm.
Very nice place. Excursions on the farm during the day and swimming in the pool. Not many people, so nice and quiet. Braai facilities in the evening. Only the Manor House's dogs had to be leashed. The little dog chased us.

Hi Megan,
So glad you enjoyed your stay.
Not sure if you are referring to our neighbour's little Chiwawa dog or our little Maltese poodle. Sorry if the dogs worried you, on the farm, we need them as security so that our guests can safely walk and enjoy the farm.
Hope to see you soon.
Warmest regards,
Carol and Ed

Pleasant stay. Nice farm atmosphere.
Very pleasant stay. Overlooking mountains with farm atmosphere. Neat and good service. Just a pity that the bedroom and bathroom are not connected. There is also a very steep staircase between the bedroom and bathroom/kitchen facilities which can be problematic for children and older people.

Refreshing.
We were very late due to delayed flight. Was still very kindly received. Rooms nice and big, clean and well equipped. Breakfast was tasty and more than enough. The setting is beautiful, with lots to do and see in the area. Would stay at The Manor House again anytime.

Have a great holiday!
Lots of adventure in reasonably safe surroundings for 4 year olds. Just watch out for the balcony and stairs if you stay in the Mill House. Friendly and helpful employees. Management is helpful and eager to help solve problems. The Mill House's roof is leaking! It's also very cold in the winter, despite the big fireplace. It is clear that this is a very old building, apparently 300 years, and it needs attention. Windows don't seal well, etc.

Good day Johan,
Thank you for your review. Constructive critique is always welcome and helps improve standards.
As you have mentioned, the building is very old, and will mention that and also the steep staircase in our description from now onwards.
Hope to see you soon again
Warmest wishes

Very peaceful atmosphere and environment
The staff were very nice and helpful at all times. The cleanliness of the unit could improve. Would prefer to be there every day clean linen whether bed linen or towels are provided. Furthermore, we had a nice time, beautiful place in nature.

The Mill House has much potential, but was unfortunately very dirty and was misrepresented on the website.

Hi Sam,
So sorry to hear that you were not happy with the accommodation. We have been trying to train the local staff from the farm and Sir Lowry's pass village as part of our contribution to job creation and we have had various degrees of success. We have had a meeting with house-keeping and addressed all of your concerns, and you were correct in letting us know. We would, however, like to rectify the situation and offer you a complimentary night's stay at The Manor House for your family for an evening and include breakfast.
Please let me know when it will suit you.
Kind regards
Carol & Ed
