I came to live in McGregor in August last year and have dined here practically every single Saturday evening since. Having successfuly run three boutique Hotels in the English Lakes for my 28 years span and travelled extensively World Wide I have never ever come across an establishment as charmingly unique as this. It is owned and run by a... More

I recently spent 2 nights in Tiger & Jill's Green Gables Country Inn and had a wonderful time. Great hosts, welcoming and helpful, authentic country-style rooms in former farmer's quarters, a perfect location in the beautiful McGregor wine area and close to Boesmanskloof for those who like a good hike. I would recommend this to anyone. Great value ! Jan... More

What was about to be a disaster of a weekend trip to McGregor was saved by the wonderful Jill. Our party of 5 had booked self catering accommodation in the town and to cut a long story short, it wasn’t what was advertised. Our option was either to drive home (3 hours away in 40 degrees) or head to the... More

Green Gables fits perfectly in the wonderfully quaint village of McGregor - lovely setting, beautiful historic home - most gracious hosts - attention to detail par excellence! We were lucky enough to book a Wed night - when Jill and Tiger open their home to the village for an amazing candlelit dinner party - delicious fare prepared by Tiger, (W,Thurs,Fri... More

Some refurbishments have taken place but the rustic feeling is the same, Mc Gregor is a unique village with its beautiful setting and old houses. And so friendly! Jill and Tiger were very helplful and accomodating... More

The welcoming was warm and it felt like we had come home to old friends, even the dog Denzel was singing for us. In... More

There can be few places to eat that re as consistent as Green Gables and this is written by a man who goes almost every week to eat with friends. The surroundings are comfortable and are better than many Michelin European stars. The food is simple with limited choice but it speaks volumes that many return for more. Breakfasts are... More

We visited McGregor for the Ride2nowhere this weekend and were looking for some self catering accommodation. I found the reviews on Trip Advisor and booked. Jill recommended we book the cottage which was huge with a kitchen, separate bathroom and masses of room for our bikes. Although we had seen fantastic reviews for the breakfast we were a bit dissappointed... More

I have been staying at Green Gables for several years and the key thing that stands out is the amazing view and incredible breakfast and attention to detail in the morning. Sitting at the very top of the town, you are able to take in a breathtaking view of the village of Mcgregor and surrounding hills, with the dramatic Langeberg... More
