    "Thank you Lizelle &amp; her family for a nice overnight stay at her wonderful guest house. The cottage &amp; the single are very roomy &amp; lovely. I'm sure the whole place'll look so magical when all the flowers're blooming in Spring or summer. We had a nice dinner (grilled in African style) there. I'd recommend this guesthouse to everyone because the price is right, service is great &amp; the place is nice, clean &amp; lovely.<div>Family Degel, Germany</div>"

    01 July 2014

    "We loved every minute of our short stay at Cape Karoo Guesthouse. We had our dates wrong, but our friendly hostess, Lizelle, took it in her stride. As her guesthouse was fully booked, she made a few phone calls to help us out and managed to set us up very comfortably at a friend's place.The evening spent in Cape Karoo's Garden Cottage was great. The accommodation is excellent, the linen beautiful and the lovely little guest's garden is perfect for soaking up the winter sun while reading or drinking a glass of wine. Lizelle and Truia's Karoo breakfast kept us going till almost dinner the next day. Best lamb wors ever!"
