A great experience that I look forward to repeating. Our stay at Wittedrift Manor House was a fantastic experience that I would be very happy to repeat. The staff were helpful and the manager was very knowledgeable about the surrounding area. The atmosphere of the house was friendly and inviting. A very big thank you to the folks at Wittedrift for making our stay there such a wonderful experience.

Historic, pleasant, friendly owner. Was absolutely wonderful and pleasant to stay at the Wittedrift Manor.

Histories, aangenaam, vriendelike eienaar. Was absoluut wonderlik en aangenaam om by die Wittedrift Manor te bly.

The house almost looks like an art gallery and museum in one. Beautiful place. Very nice house. Full of very beautiful art. Nice pool. Had a nice breakfast. Guests may use the kitchen.

Die huis lyk omtrent soos 'n kunsgalery en museum in een. Pragtige plek. Baie lekker huis. Vol baie mooi kuns. Lekker swembad. Lekker ontbyt gekry. Gaste mag die kombuis gebruik.

Double bed did not have a top sheet - sweltering hot night. Impression: old/dusty. Stay was satisfactory but not outstanding.

Dubbelbed nie 'n bo-laken gehad nie - snikhete aand. Indruk: oud/stowwerig. Verblyf was bevredigend maar nie uitstaande nie.

Great stay, just too short! Summing up Wittedrift Manor House in a few words will be difficult because it has been a very interesting experience. We did have a lovely stay and would recommend Wittedrift Manor House. This is a fantastically beautiful old house. Unfortunately did not meet the owner/s because there must be incredibly rich historical background that I would have liked to experience from the owners' point of view. Not all of us like owners who want to talk about their place all the time, but in this case it would be fantastic. The reception experience was initially a bit of a disappointment because you arrive at the gate with no bell. We and other guests called after which a very friendly woman received us and checked us in. As soon as you are in the house, you are overwhelmed with the hoe roof, a large collection of beautiful and old furniture, paintings, ornaments, and giant flower arrangement. Kitchen is large and you feel like in your grandmother's kitchen, except that there is no charcoal stove with a pot of coffee on it. Bedroom is large and comfortable. Like all guest houses, there are a million loose pillows to throw on the ground when you go to sleep, but there is space for that. A variety of paintings decorate the walls, the dominant theme of paintings made me wonder if the artist has a thing for women's breasts. Shower and toilet space is spacious and comfortable. Parking is tight, but we were able to park inside the yard. Would not have been comfortable to leave my vehicle outside on the street during the night, although the guests from other places in Church Street around the corner had to leave their vehicles on the street. The entrance gate is not automatic and must be opened manually on each arrival and departure. An automatic gate would be a welcome upgrade. Breakfast is basic with a choice of scrambled or fried eggs, bacon and toast. Yogurt and muesli were also served.

Heerlik gebly, net te kort! Om Wittedrift Manor House optesom in paar woorde gaan moeilik wees want dit is 'n baie interesante ervaring gewees. Ons het wel heerlik gebly en sal Wittedrift Manor House aanbeveel. Dit is 'n fantastiese mooi ou huis. Ongelukkig nie die eienaar/s ontmoet nie want daar moet ongelooflike ryk historiese agtergrond wees wat ek graag van die eienaars se oogpunt wou ervaar. Nie almal van ons hou van eienaars wat heeltyd oor hulle plek wil gesels nie, maar in hierdie geval sou dit fantasties wees. Ontvangs ervaring was aanvanklik bietjie van teleurstelling want mens kom voor toe hek met geen klokkie nie. Ons en ander gaste het gebel waarna 'n baie vriendelike vrou ons ontvang en ingeboek het. Sodra mens in die huis is, word jy oorweldig met die hoe dak, 'n groot versameling mooi en ou meubels, skilderye, ornamente, en reuse blomme rangskikking. Kombuis is groot en jy voel soos in jou ouma se kombuis, buiten dat daar nie koolstoof met potjie koffie op is nie. Slaapkamer is groot en gemaklik. Soos alle gastehuise is daar 'n miljoen los kussens om op die grond te gooi wanneer jy gaan slaap, maar daarvoor is daar spasie. 'n Verskeidenheid skilderye versier die mure, die oorheersende tema van skilderye het my laat wonder of die kunstenaar ding oor vrou se borste het. Stort- en toiletruimte is ruim en gemaklik. Parkeering is knap, maar ons kon binne in die erf parkeer. Sou nie gemaklik gewees het om my voertuig buite op straat te los deur die nag nie, alhoewel die gaste van ander plekke in Kerkstraat om die draai hulle voertuie op straat moes los. Die ingangshek is nie outomaties nie en moet met die hand oopgemaak word met elke aankoms en vertrek. 'n Outomatiese hek sal 'n welkome opgradering wees. Ontbyt is basies met 'n keuse tussen roereier of gebakte eiers, spek en roosterbrood. Daar was ook jogurt en muesli bedien.

Not good at all. A big disappointment. Although a beautiful manor house with some nice antiques, the general feel was 'tired' and run down. Then the clientele - it appears to be run as a hostel, with various people cooking curry in the kitchen, brewing up stews and then eating in the lounge etc. Very uncomfortable. Sad.

Thank you - constructive criticism is great as it gives us an opportunity to improve for future guests' experiences. Besides routine maintenance, which we do in the quieter months, we had damage caused by the strong winds and storms, so we are busy repainting and replacing thatch due to the damage caused - this is a messy job - huge apologies for that. Yes, the house is self-catering with communal lounge and kitchen areas allowing all the guests that are staying in the house to cook meals as they wish. Most of the guests staying are booked through agents like this plus others and enjoy the self-catering aspect of the house - home away from home feeling. We will, however, make a note to ask guests to be considerate of others, especially those who are booked in for a week as part of our winter special package. Thank you and kind regards.

Beautiful Accomodation. Beautiful Accomodation. The hosts were fantastic and friendly. The breakfast was excellent with such a good spread. Will definitely make use of this B&B again in the future. Was treated like family there.

Wittedrift's location is ideal. The house is very interesting with antiques and modern art. Every room has a story to tell. We were only there for one day, will definitely want to visit there in the summer and then want to stay a little longer.

Wittedrift se ligging is ideaal. Die huis is baie interessant met oudhede en moderne kuns. Elke vertrek het 'n storie om te vertel. Ons was net vir een dag daar, sal definitief in die somer daar wil gaan kuier en dan bietjie langer wil vertoef.

Excellent. The house, although built since the earthquake, is amazing. Really interesting. And we weren't expecting the great breakfast.
