The biggest asset is the staff. Tessa was so kind to move us to a ground floor room because I hurt my knee and would have had difficulties to climb the steps to the room that we booked. The room (no 1) was a lovely room, very big and beautifully decorated. Breakfast was delicious and the staff very helpfull. We... More

Beautiful guest house, lovely garden (and pool), cozy rooms and styleful decor. Breakfast is served in serene surroundings with smooth jazz in the background. The owners are sweet and helpfull and the staff go to extra lengths to make you feel at home.

Our business stayed at Summerwood for a single night in March, We found the Guest house very easily. The accommodation was comfortable, clean and eclectic (modern/comfy). Great service and perfectly positioned within Stellenbosch. Breakfast was delicious. Only negative: Pillows very hard.

The guest house was attractively decorated, offered a delicious breakfast, and a lovely garden and swimming pool. It is within walking distance to town if you choose to get some exercise. The staff was friendly and helpful. The only detraction was that on our last morning when we were checking out, my husband did not get the hot breakfast he... More

After many visits, we continue to return to this delightful boutique hotel. Ideally located for visiting Stellenbosch and exploring the many delightful vineyards in the area. Now under new ownership and about to receive a major renovation, this can only improve what is already a delightful accommodation. We have already booked for next year! Highly recommended

we only stayed one night but the staff were very accommodating and helpful. The room was very good and well equipped for a better class guest house. The location is close to town and near enough to walk if you ignore the warnings about walking at night. The pool is great and all in all a good experience.

We spent two nights at Summerwood and found it an excellent base for visiting the surrounding winelands. It is located in a quiet and leafy area of town with a lovely peaceful, shady garden in which to relax. It is under new management and we were impressed with the friendliness and enthusiasm of the new young owners. When we arrived,... More

The prices are high, but you will not regret it. Only one thing i'd like to criticize: pls. cover cheese and cold meats at the buffet with a bonnet.... More
