The view and accessible. Breakfast was delicious.
There was no wifi and bad network reception.
Schöne Unterkunft, gutes Essen.

Fire and hot tub and food
It was raining and cold, nothing to do with the property
Het is prachtig daar
Ik had de mountainbikes mee daar werkte niet alles aan (remmen) en helmen zonder sluiting
Everything was perfectly
Son emplacement dépaysant dans un environnement tranquille et moderne.

Most incredible view. So cozy and comfortable.
It felt like a 6 star place if there was any this place must have 6 stars. We were treated like royalty.
NOTHING!
Perfect place to stay in, the rooms are very comfortable and clean. They also have a exceptional restaurant
We loved everything
Lovely outlook from the balcony, Ruby was very welcoming and attentive. The room was spacious and very comfortable with a separate kitchen area and big bathroom with great rain head shower. Bit far from Stellenbosch central and the management need to stop the dogs barking!
Bit far from Stellenbosch central and the management need to stop the dogs barking, especially at night. The dinner waiter needs to sharpen his skills.
Tudo muito bom! O café da manhã era uma atração à parte com seus Ovos Benedict. O hotel me surpreendeu positivamente, pois eu esperava menos pelas fotos. Mas é lindo, com uma vista maravilhosa, super recomendo.
O banheiro era bem frio
I loved how friendly and professional the staff was.
O hotel é bem tranquilo, localizado próximo a vinícolas e com ótima estrutura no quarto, sendo uma região de tranquilidade e paz. Os cachorros são um plus, muito fofoss e carinhosos! Café da manhã bem servido e ótimo atendimento!!
A localização é um pouco afastada do centrinho (+-15 min de carro). Caso seja um dia de vinícolas com intenção de jantar fora, pode ser um pouco ruim. Apesar disso, o hotel serve jantar, que parece ser bom (não provamos). A casa principal é de madeira, então pode-se escutar facilmente os passos de outros hóspedes, o que pode ser um pouco incômodo. As luminárias do quarto são sensíveis, esbarrei por acidente e uma soltou/quebrou. Me ofereci para fazer o acerto e o hotel mandou a cobrança posteriormente (justo, mas desagradável).
Comfort room, lounging area, open air woodfire hot tube. Two bedroom log comes with washer and dryer, and full kitchenette. Very genuine friendly staffs. Thank you.
It could be a negative for some - - the location is away from city centre. For those with a car, this is fine. We enjoyed the stay and love the seclusion.
The property is stunning , I liked the fact that it has a restaurant , I liked the friendly staff both the lady and the guy.
The lodge was amazing with an incredible view. Staff made sure the jacuzzi was heated prior to our arrival.
Vista e posizione e i cani dei proprietari, mi sono innamorata di loro
Troppo freddo nella zona colazione, impossibile starci x bagno freddissimo. Prezzo del pranzo troppo alto rispetto allo standard
Was für eine traumhafte Unterkunft! Von der herzlichen Begrüßung des Rezeptionisten, über das traumhaft schöne Zimmer mit allem, was man zum Wohlfühlen benötigt und dem leckeren Frühstück, war alles einwandfrei. Die beiden Hunde und die Katze sind sehr lieb und verschmust und letztere leistet einem Abends vor dem Kamin (Winter) gerne Gesellschaft. Besonders haben wir den wunderschönen Sonnenuntergang in der Hot Tube genossen. Auch das Abendessen können wir weiterempfehlen (der Koch hat extra etwas veganes zubereitet, was so nicht auf der Karte stand) - sehr lecker. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

The Log Collective si trova in una vallata stupenda nella regione dello Stellenboch. Il lodge è immerso nel verde e nei vigneti e la vista di cui gode è meravigliosa. La camera che ci hanno assegnato era perfetta: spaziosa, pulita, confortevole. Abbiamo trascorso due notti all'insegna del relax, approfittando anche della cena una sera e dell'aperitivo. Alloggio da non perdere se si esplora questa zona incantevole.
Nulla
The Log Collective is a truly enchanting gem. We only stayed for one night, but I genuinely wish we could have spent our entire stay in the area right here. We opted for the half-board option, and every detail was crafted with immense care. Both the braai dinner and breakfast were absolutely exquisite. To top it all off, the breathtaking views over the vineyards made the experience even more magical. A heartfelt thank you to the staff for their warm, friendly, and welcoming hospitality. This place has the most amazing positive vibes. We sincerely hope to return one day! Warm regards from Italy! 🇮🇹✨
It's honestly impossible for me to find anything negative!
Location estremamente rilassante, parcheggio auto davanti alla struttura, camera accogliente, cena deliziosa, personale gentile, caminetto acceso, tutto perfetto!
Great location, everything you need is in the room. Bed is extremely comfortable and the place is clean.
The prices of the food is aimed at international travellers and not for locals. Breakfast cost and what was served cannot be justified. You can also hear everything around you as the rooms are not really sound proof. The slightest conversation and unzipping of bags of your neighbors created a feeling of uneasiness.
I love how quite and peaceful this place was love the fireplace inside the room.
Der tolle Blick von unserer kleinen Cabin aus.
nichts
O lugar é perfeito, com uma vinícola maravilhosa logo ao lado. Atendimento impecável. Único ponto é que o quarto inferior barulha um pouco em razão da movimentação de cima e por ser tudo de madeira, mas não é algo que estraga sua estadia.
Food was expensive and not great. Really disappointed actually. It was a special thing for my husband birthday and nobody even said happy birthday
The bed is big and comfortable and spacious bathroom. The lodge is in a nice quiet setting with a whole lot of greenery. It was a very relaxed environment.
Thank you for the opportunity to provide feedback. I would suggest considering the addition of another hot tub, given the number of guests that the lodge is able to accommodate. It may also be beneficial to provide a bottle and tin opener in the kitchenette area for guests' convenience. In addition, you may wish to consider requesting breakfast orders from guests in advance to improve service efficiency. On the morning of our stay, we were seated shortly after 09:20 but only received our breakfast just before 10:00. As check-out is strictly at 10:00, as advised by the waitress, we felt rushed to finish our meal before departing. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and trust that this feedback will be helpful in enhancing the guest experience.
Unglaublich tolle Besitzer, die mit großer Leidenschaft ihr Handwerk verstehen. Sowohl der herzliche Empfang (trotz unserer sehr späten Anreise) als auch das super leckere Essen aus dem eigenen Garten hat uns überzeugt. Die netten vierbeinigen Bewohner (zwei freundliche, unglaublich süße Hunde und eine Katze, die ihren Abend stilvoll am Kamin genossen hat) haben sich unaufdringlich in unser Herz geschlichen.
Excellent services received
Nothing
Le petit-déjeuner était excellent et l’ambiance générale du chalet était chaleureuse et accueillante.
Der tolle Service und die hohe Qualität.
Als einziges vielleicht die niedrige Temperatur im Wintergarten, in dem Frühstück und Abendessen serviert wurden. Ansonsten war alles top.
Excellent séjour passé au Log collective pour 2 nuits ; la vue, le calme, le personnel la chambre tout était parfait ; Petit plus pour le bain nordique et le salon commun chauffé au feu de bois ! Les petits dej et repas sont excellents
Rien
First of all , the view , location is stunning , it feels like you are in the middle of some English countryside . The service was immediate, if we requested something , someone came to where we were located to assist us, and nothing was too much hassle ! Very friendly staff , personable. The cooking!! Oh my goodness ! It ranked for me up there with the French chefs , fantastic skill and flavor, the meat was thick , juicy, melt in your mouth ! The doggies are sooo cute and super friendly! The cat , depends on the moment , being a cat and all;). The jacuzzi was the highlight for me , they kept it at an amazing temperature throughout the weekend and we lavished in it for hours . The view from the jacuzzi is beautiful ! A lovely weekend away that felt like a weekend in bourdeax.
Not being able to stay longer

RIEN
The hotel was in a beautiful setting with added top customer service. The team couldn’t do enough for us. The bedroom was clean and comfortable and the food was exceptional! We would love to be back again one day.
The fact that we couldn’t spend more time with Socks (the hotel cat).
Ruby was warm and welcoming. All the staff were friendly and attentive. Loved the veggies patches, the bed was amazing and breakfast was delicious.
Thank you for a wonderful stay! Beautiful apartments surrounded by stunning nature and breathtaking views. The staff were incredibly friendly and did everything possible to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. A special highlight was the excellent breakfast and dinner. Warm, cozy, and unforgettable — we would happily stay here again.
The breakfast was absolutely delicious! And the fireplace seating is very nice in winter.
The dinner meals are quite expensive!
Everything was wonderful.i
Tot. L entorn, la decoracio, el personal i sobretot en Socks (el gat)
Tot i que el sopar es una mica car, val la pena per l entorn
View was excellent. We spend some time in the Hot Tub which was great. The Shower area is big. The kitchen was well stocked with equipment The fireplace was nice The bed was comfortable.
Unfortunately, the Cape Wind had a big role to play for us to not fully enjoy the Hot Tub.
Super schön, super nettes Personal und tolle Landschaft . Empfehle ich vollen Herzens weiter!
Amazing view and wonderful facilities. It was so luxurious to lie outside on the sunbeds and dip into the jacuzzi every now and then. The bed was super comfy and kitchen facilities are great!
Everything was wonderful. I can't fault them. We would happily stay here again next time we are in Stellenbosch.
Super Aussicht, Hot Tub wurde wie gewünscht zur Anreise auf sehr angenehme Temperatur vorgeheizt, gute Ausstattung des Hauses, sehr freundlicher Empfang und Personal
Im Vorfeld wurde Glutenfreies Frühstück
Beautiful setting and cosy
The flies from the horse farm next door
Tutto. È un posto meraviglioso, immerso nei vigneti e lontano dal traffico. Ci siamo fermati una notte in più del previsto solo per goderci avanti il relax.
A beautiful, peaceful retreat. A place to completely stop and unwind.
Food prices are a little high - but understandable as a small hotel with limited numbers still have to pay the chef etc!
Wunderschöne Unterkunft in den Weinbergen. Das nächste Weingut ist nur ein paar Minuten zu Fuß erreichbar. Wir hatten eine Wanderung durch die Weinberge gemacht, was wunderschön war und sind dort zum Schluss eingekehrt. Das Essen im Weingut ist Spitze, wir haben selten so gut gegessen und die Flasche Wein dazu war auch sehr gut! Ebenso möchten ich das sehr gute Essen in der Unterkunft erwähnen, das Frühstück war das beste was wir auf unserer 4 wöchigen Reise hatten. Liebevoll hergerichtet, sehr gut! Ebenfalls ein Dankeschön dem Grillmeister, das Fleisch war sehr zart und lecker, das gesamte Essen super gut 👍 Danke an alle Mitarbeiter der Unterkunft für die schöne Zeit die wir bei Ihnen haben durften! Liebe Grüße an alle Haustiere, wir hätten Euch am liebsten mit genommen ❣️❣️❣️
Le grand confort de la chambre Vineyard Cabine et sa vue Le domaine extérieur pour balader à pied Le bain nordique chauffé au bois La cheminé dans le salon du restaurant commun Le repas du soir avec des plats exceptionnels Le jeux d'échec extérieur avec des figurines de 1m
Manque de choix pour le petit déjeuner (même si ce qu'il y avait était très bon) comme des basiques avec du lait au chocolat pour les enfants et trop peu de fruit frais Le bruit de la cuisine tôt le matin pour préparer le petit déjeuner Le terrain de pétanque en pente mais surtout avec du sable très mou Les raquettes de badminton endommagées et sans balle
Facilities and comfort
Nothing
Sehr gemütlich eingerichtetes Zimmer und freundliche Gastgeber. Sehr leckeres Frühstück und Abendessen. Toll gestaltete Unterkunft insgesamt mit verschiedenen Einrichtungsstilen.
Das Badezimmer könnte moderner sein und mehr Möglichkeiten für eine schnelle Erwärmung bieten.
Really liked the location and the personal approach (as it was a smaller hotel). The view was amazing, and the lobby/lounge/restaurant space had an amazing ambience. The Braai was really good, though a bit much for us but we are both very small eaters. Breakfast was perfect too and felt like high quality food. Would definitely recommend!
Chambre confortable, environnement calme et agréable.. petit déjeuner joliment décoré.
Leider können wir die guten Bewertungen nicht nachvollziehen. 1.Die Unterkunft war sehr unflexibel bezüglich einer Stornierung wegen des starken Unwetters. Wir hätten den vollen Preis bezahlen müssen. 2. Die Zimmer sind extrem hellhörig. 3. Man genießt wenig Privatsphäre, da andere Gästen den selben Balkon benutzen und immer am Zimmer vorbeigehen 4. Für eine Reinigung und frische Handtücher musste man separat Bescheid geben (was wir nicht wussten) 5. Auch fehlte uns die gute Seele des Hauses, irgendwie fühlte man sich irgendwie alleine
Stunning property, friendly staff, would go back in a heartbeat
Fantastisch uitzicht, goed eten, vriendelijk mensen en goede service door Ruby.
The surroundings and offerings.
It clearly catered for international travelers as the dinner and drinks were very expensive.
The staff were amazing, the place was super clean and ready for us as soon as we arrived. Breakfast was included and great value for money. We felt like we were catered for every need. 10/10
Ein Ort zum Entspannen. Wir haben unsere letzten Tage in Südafrika sehr bei euch genossen. Besonderen Dank nochmal an Kenzo für die super Weintour, war ein tolles Erlebnis. Danke an alle auch an den wunderbaren Koch, bei dem man merkt, dass er das was er tut mit Passion tut und man schmeckt es! Danke an Alle.
Prachtig kleinschalig complex
Awesome location, gorgeous room, amazing evening meal, wonderful staff & lovely dogs & a cat.
Nothing
It was amazing!! Such a beautiful place, the food, the cat, the dogs, the stuff, the fireplace, everything!
Maybe a bit cold if you travel in autumn, since the fire place is the only heating in the main area
Wir fanden es sehr toll! Kommen wieder. Tolle familiäre Atmosphäre und super Weingüter in der Nähe sogar zu Fuß.
L’accueil et le service, la qualité de la literie
Rien
Die Lage ist toll. Außerdem ist es eine sehr kleine und somit persönliche Lodge. Alle sind super freundlich und hilfsbereit.
Frühstück ist a la carte … Einen Morgen haben wir ein zweites Gericht (Joghurt mit Obst) von der Karte bestellt und mussten es extra zahlen. Als Mann ist das Frühstück nicht ausreichend.
Such a beautiful spot, it’d super green with stunning views of the surrounding mountains. The rooms a spacious and thoughtful decorated. But what really stood out to us was the service - the staff is very kind & really wants to make sure you enjoy your stay. Location is great, within ca. 10 minutes you are in Stellenbosch
Leider waren wir hier viel zu kurz! Eine wunderschöne Unterkunft, ideal für die Vinelands. Liebevoll, individuell gestaltete Zimmer, netter Inhaber, leckeres Dinner und Frühstück. Toll war das Lagerfeuer unter Sternenhimmel. Nächstes Mal bleiben wir länger.
The welcome wine was much appreciated. Cabin kitchen was really well equipped. Lovely views/location. Mostly friendly staff. Michael was excellent. In the grounds of Louisvale Winery which has an excellent restaurant with stunning views (and discount). Nice restaurant in Log Collective. Log fire was excellent on a cool evening. Good kitchen garden to provide fresh vegetables, tomatoes, herbs, etc.
The listing is misleading. Other potential guests have questioned a number of features but listing hasn't been made clearer, especially regarding shared private vs facilities. The "balcony" suggests upper floor but it was actually a patio/terrace for a ground floor. Lower cabin (Log Apartment) is extremely noisy when guests walking above; a structural issue that can't be changed. No hot water until fixed half hour before checkout. No headboards on any of the 3 beds. Flies are a problem; automatic fly-killer spray didn't work. Be prepared to share a table with other guests in the dining area, so not a romantic venue. Lots of noise from mowing and strimming.
Einfach alles. Es ist phantastisch dort - das ganze Anwesen, die Zimmer, das Ambiente, der Ausblick, die total netten, offenen und zuvorkommenden Besitzer, das ganze Personal, die beiden Hunde und die sehr coole Katze Socks.
Wenn es überhaupt etwas zu verbessern gäbe (Jammern auf höchstem Niveau), dann käme beim Frühstück ein kleines Buffet gut an, mit etwas mehr Obst, Joghurt, Nüssen etc. Aber wahrscheinlich würde man das alles auf Nachfrage auch bekommen.
Epic place, beds were super comfortable and the views are stunning
Blinds on the bathroom windows would be a great addition
Difficult to describe how incredibly stressful Ning this setting and estate is. The attention to detail is exceptional whilst retaining all of the natural beauty. The accommodation blends with its surroundings with every comfort taken care of.
It was in a beautiful location, spotlessly clean and the staff were so friendly.
Fantastische Lage mitten in den Weinbergen. Super große Zimmer mit riesigem Bett. Nette Poollandschaft inklusive Whirpool. Abendessen fantastisch.
The place is amazing, the staff friendly and food really really good
An all round amazing experience. The accommodation is beautiful, the views amazing, the food is to die for and the staff went above and beyond for us. They really made us feel special. A special mention to Chris, Kenzo and Robin. Thank you

Everything The food was splendid
Nothing
Fantastic place to stay after a full day visiting wineries. We booked a lovely two bedroom apartment on the ground floor. The beds were comfy. We did not use the kitchen but it seemed to have what was needed to cook a simple meal. Staff were lovely and breakfast very nice.
Amazing views, great food in the restaurant.
The team could be more proactive in communicating the activities that are possible. We did end up getting a massage and doing a wine tour, but it would be good to have an introduction on arrival of everything that is possible at such a lovely location.
Great getaway for relaxation, located close to Stellenbosch and many well-known vineyards. If you choose, you can dine in; the menu is simple but great, and the food is very tasty. The view from everywhere on the property is breathtaking. Our room was very comfortable and beautifully decorated with a well-equipped kitchenette and spacious bathroom. There was a cosy communal lounge with a fireplace and several great outdoor areas(Pool, spa, firepit etc).
Similar issue with the provided hairdryer that I have had at another location - Hairdryer Safeway brand that unfortunately does not plug in properly, thus making it very difficult to use
Great location and we liked Serenity Villa and its views
Somewhat Disappointed by the braai evening which was expensive for what it was. Also we were charged for two glasses of wine even when signs on tables said the braai included a bottle of wine. When we asked staff we were told it was just a glass included, but even this we were charged for. Breakfasts were ok but the fruit on offer was unripe and hard.
Simply outstanding. Everything has been thought of. Michael, our main server was one of the nicest most attentive all round great guy.
Everything
Excellent food
It was very peaceful and quiet.
Only 2 hangers in the wardrobe, bathroom mirror impractical, shower dangerously slippery. Complimentary coffees and milk not re-filled. Worn bed linen. Damp Smell laundered towels. No TV, but that not a deal breaker.
Great Service, exceptional food (the Braai!!! And the Steak!), hot tub and pool are great, situated in the middle of a wine berg and the cutest dogs
Nothing!
Awesome location near Stellenbosch right within the vineyards with beautiful mountain views The view from the fire heated hot tub is just incredible Nice breakfast, it’s very comfortable that you can have dinner
Just keep in mind that you can’t access this place directly.from the north (n1), you need to go through Stellenbosch
Fantastic place : quiet remote with a wonderful view,
every thing is perfect
