Very clean & spacious rooms. I highly recommend this place. The fireplace on a cold winters night was perfect 👌. The hosts were very friendly. I loved every thing about this place.

The walk on the farm the next morning...country living! The fire place in the lounge was lovely.
The staff were amazing especially Clifford who made us feel welcome. Nice breakfast.
Marissa and Clifford went above and beyond :) Regret not staying an extra night, lovely area, lovely people
ausserordentliche Lage, schöne Garten.
Sauberkeit …. die Tischtücher waren befleckt ….Brotkrümel vom Tag zuvor magen herum…
Very friendly staff, comfortable beds and nice access to the common fireplace and honesty bar for the evenings
There aren't many dinner options nearby which makes the evenings a bit difficult to plan

Itchy bugs in bed. Sat around waiting for breakfast for 20 min and then left to get breakfast elsewhere
The beautiful setting and homely feel.
The quietness

All was perfect - room, amenities, breakfast, tennis court and of course - winery next door!
Overnattingsstedet burde hatt sykler for gjester som ikke kommer meg eget kjøretøy. Avstandene er lange.
They were excellent as they gave me the room I saw online. I so loved the bathroom of that room. So spacious and comfortable

Absolutely beautiful!!! And wonderfully friendly and accommodating staff! Wish we had more time there
Der Pool war wunderschön, ebenso die Gartenanlage und auch das Haus selbst hat seinen Charme
In unserem Zimmer lag alter Teppichboden, der schon viel erlebt hat…das Haus ist sehr hellhörig und ist kein Hotel, es werden demnach Zimmer in einem Privathaus vermietet, wir waren in der ersten Nacht komplett allein, Frühstück sollte es ab 8 Uhr geben, letztendlich war es erst 1 Stunde später fertig und war das schlechteste, das ich in 3 Wochen in Südafrika bekommen habe
The bed was extremely comfortable, the Merlot was lovely, and breakfast was excellent.
It was a bit too peaceful for us and it was impossible to find a dinner option in the area. On site evening meal options seemed limited to pizza!
Clifford was very friendly and welcoming! The room was spacious, comfortable and clean with everything I needed. Was such a pity I was there for such a short time and couldn't take advantage of the beautiful venue. Will definitely be back! Thank you to everyone:-)
Beautiful property, incredible hosts and sublime breakfast
Spacious and clean room and beautiful gardens
Die einmalige, ruhige Lage, die Möglichkeit ungestört zu schwimmen, das Personal, das Weinangebot - alles ist wunderbar.
Die technische Ausstattung des Zimmers ist nicht mehr ganz zeitgemäß, aber für uns war es völlig ausreichend.
- breakfast yummy - location restful - outside of the place is much better in real life than the posted pictures - staff attention is good - safe
Excellent location..... peaceful and quiet.
No dislikes
The place is excellent for those who want to disconnect, enjoy the countryside and savour good wines in a beautiful setting. The team is very friendly and welcoming.
It is important to note that after 5 p.m. there is no staff on site — it is a country house, so any room service must be arranged before then. I was alone on the property; at first I felt a little unsure, but I soon realised that it was extremely safe and that there were people very close to the main house at all times.
Lovely big old country house. . High ceilings, wood floors and attractive bathrooms. Delicious breakfast sitting outside...beautiful gardens.

very good breakfast - friendly service
A tranquil oasis with beautiful room and gardens
The bed comfy, linen clean and fresh Bedroom and bathroom was a little tired, carpet needs replacing Beautifully garden
Bedroom and bathroom a little tired Carpet needs replacing. Staff go off from 4pm so you left alone in the house, a little daunting We had to leave by 8.30am. The breakfast which was included in our stay is only served from 8am, so no breakfast Would have been nice to see a staff member in the morning to say goodbye
The breakfast was great
The one window didn't lock Shower was dripping onto the bottom metal plate, making a noise.
Elgin Vintners Country House is magnificent. Beautiful location, large comfortable bedroom and picturesque English country garden. The staff are very welcoming and friendly possibly because they are so happy and the establishment oozes positive energy.
I would suggest a flood light in the parking area outside reception. Very easy for someone to trip over tree roots in the dark.
The garden was amazing and the bedroom and linen fantastic.
I would have liked to have a continental breakfast option.
Lovely old Apple Baron house with huge rooms set in a lovely garden. The folks taking care of me were so kind and friendly.
Very friendly staff, clean and neat. The room was very spacious and the bed super comfortable. The breakfast was excellent
Vår favorittvingård i Elgin! Anbefales på det sterkeste. Dette er andre gangen vi er her ☺️ Gus og Marisa tok godt vare på oss.
Set in the vine yards
All Good!
It was a lovely old building and the grounds was really exquisite. The breakfast was really good.
We got lost on our way to the property as the map facility took us into farm lands. The floor in front of our room was extremely slippery and I had a tumble the night we arrived. the heater in the room was broken and the towels needs some upgrading as it is extremely worn. We heard during breakfast the next morning that all the other rooms have towel heaters and they seem to be very new and upgraded.
The scenery, gardens and the staff were wonderful.
The plug in the bedroom was not connecting properly and the staff were aware of it. Would be good if it was fixed.
Beautiful place, met all my needs. Friendly staff.
Friendly staff. They keep contact with you throughout your stay. The entire venue is well kept.

I went in the week. I struck gold.. I had it all to myself for the night. A rare lucky bonus for me. It was quiet, beautiful and super helpful friendly staff.
I could only stay 1 night. I would. Have loved a 2nd night.
It was very expensive for what you get. I expected a lot more after reading the reviews.
We had such a beautiful experience of quiet and calm. Walks among apple orchards. Birds in the trees and flowers. Gorgeous roses, a beautiful fairy garden. Everything, so lovely, so ladylike and refined. So peaceful. Thank you
Breakfast was lovely, the estate is beautiful, rooms comfortable and beautifully appointed.
The bathroom towels looked a bit tortured...Clean but old with a few small stains. Maybe time for some new sets...
Super friendly staff. Beautifully situated to explore the Elgin Valley!
Very friendly staff, clean, neat and comfy. The breakfast was excellent, and I really enjoyed the stay with a view! I would definitely recommend this place and book my next stay with them again.
I would prefer to have a fridge in my room.
Beautiful, quiet & remote location & setting. Lovely pool Wonderfully friendly & welcoming staff Honesty bar with great wine options Delicious breakfast
Staff left at 5pm so all felt a bit odd. It's not a hotel, but we felt a bit abandoned with no dinner options. Had to drive 30 mins to find somewhere decent. No a/c in room so we were rather warm. Needed to keep windows open for air...and in came the bugs. That explained all the insect cream & sprays left in room!
I didn’t stay at the property as I couldn’t find the entrance

Beautiful setting Amazing views Great friendly staff Wine tasting setting and Wood fired pizza was fantastic
we didn’t have another night to enjoy
Comfortable bed Nice size room and gigantic bathroom Gardens and swimming pool Good breakfast Tranquility
Check in was delayed whilst we tried to track down the receptionist
location was perfect to visit the outdoor expo. we never stayed for breakfast. nice Rose garden and beautiful plants and lawns.
Beautiful establishment in a stunning setting. Wonderful garden to explore. Megan was exceptionally friendly and a good communicator. Room was very spacious and beds super comfortable. Very tranquil and quiet - a perfect getaway!
As there is no staff around in the evenings, perhaps it should be mentioned upon arrival, that there is an honesty bar if guests would like some refreshments. A small fridge in the room would be a bonus! The pool is not accessible for the walking-impaired, which was really a pity, as it was a very hot day!
The house and the garden are beautiful.
A number of small things were not quite right. Reception was uninformative, access to the house was limited because of pest control taking place, bathroom was quite a bit older than pictures suggested.
Staff so friendly . Very comfortable rooms . Lovely breakfast.
Having a dinner option would be amazing .
The staff were friendly, engaging and did a great job. We were allowed to check in early, which was helpful. The home cooked breakfast was simple but delicious. We enjoyed eating on the terrace overlooking the beautiful gardens. There was a large pool and pool towels were provided, but there was no shade/umbrellas and the pool itself would benefit from a lick of paint. The bed was very comfortable and we slept well. No air con or fans, but it cooled down at night so that wasn't an issue for us.
Our room (the family suite) was very dated and rather shabby in places. The bathroom in particular was very old and in need of updating. We saw some of the other rooms whilst they were being cleaned, and they looked much nicer. Wifi would only work in the main area of the house and would not connect in our room. It's quite an unusual set up in that the staff leave the property at 5pm and guests are left alone at the property. There were no other guests during our stay and it felt slightly unsettling being left alone with no emergency contact numbers etc. There's a communal microwave and fridge in the breakfast room but generally speaking it's not set up for eating in and you need to drive to go out and get dinner etc as there is no on-site restaurant after 4pm when the wine tasting room closes. Unusually for a hotel on a vineyard, no complimentary wine tasting. The honesty bar was useful.
Relaxed and very quiet
Nothing to dislike
Magnificent homestead and stunning garden!
The location and view were amazing. The bed was comfortable. The breakfast was delicious.
There was no place to sit and do your hair. The coffee station was not adequately equipped. We were not able to have pizzas the evening at the venue as expected.
Staff were very friendly. Place was quiet and clean.
I was to tired to look out for things that I din't like.
Everything was great. Nothing I was unhappy about. Had some issues with dstv connection but sorted out in a flash. Breakfast lasted me the whole day. Megan, Marisa and staff were fantastic, helpful and friendly. Will definitely be back. Grounds/garden stunning
Nothing.
Excellent breakfast, Yoghurt, fruit and muesli followed by English breakfast was ideal. Superb mattress, pillows and bedding, the most comfortable of the places we've stayed for years. Wonderful surroundings and formal garden . THe Barn restaurant nearby was oustanding the addition of a heated towel rail was luxurious.
THe low availability of marmalade at breakfast time.
everything was great. Quality.
Didn't know there was a tennis court! would have planned a game.
