Arrived at Saxe Coburg Lodge after a wonderful drive over the Swartburg Pass. Comfortable accommodation in a lovely garden - we were very glad of the air conditioning as the temperature was 41C. Prince Albert is a really nice little spot with several craft shops and restaurants and well worth an overnight stop.

Lovingly restored and extended, the Saxe-Coburg oozes Victorian character & charm. We stayed in one one of the garden cottages and very much enjoyed sitting on our verandah overlooking the well kept lawns & beautiful garden. A refreshing dip in the pool was a real treat, too. Dick & Regina are superb hosts, welcoming, friendly & with an encylopaedic knowledge of the town & its surroundings. The rooms are well equipped, nicely furnished in period style & have the added benefits of DSTV & a bar fridge. This was our second stay at Saxe-Coburg & we're sure it won't be our last!

My wife and I unexpectedly turned up recently in Prince Albert on a motorcycle ride of the West Cape. The owners Dick & Regina were very nice is ensuring that we had a great place to park the bike....just the start of an excellent one-night stay! We booked a lovely suite in the garden, got unpacked, and with Dick's advice and tips, took a walking tour of beautiful Prince Albert. With a great room, a delicious breakfast (cooked by Dick, thanks!) and two very nice hosts, the Saxe-Coburg is the place to stay in Prince Albert.

This is an excellent B&B that is well run and set in a beautiful garden complete with swimming pool.

My wife and I stayed recently and found our hostess, Ann, to be very welcoming and pleasant company.

The rooms were spotless, with period furnishings and comfortable bedding. Satellite TV was an an unexpected bonus to keep up to date on the cricket with!

The breaksfast was full of variety and with no suggestion of an end to bountiful helpings.

We were also booked into the Cafe Galleria for dinner which was a pleasant surprise with excellent food and wine at a good price. The owner was both pleasant and knowlegegable with a menu that offered variety but didn't go overboard to the point of losing quality.

I would thoroughly recommend the Lodage and Prince Albert in general as part of your stay in South Africa.
