Located within the horseshoe, on a quiet street just off one of the main streets in this historic town, the property is a short walk from shops, museums, restaurants etc. Recently renovated, it is located in a private garden area to the rear of the a larger guesthouse, with its own private access. It has a double bedroom, en suite bathroom, large open plan kitchen and sitting room. Private access down a side passage to the main house, private terrace and private garden. Parking is strictly on street. - PLEASE NOTE THAT THE AIRCONS ARE PROVIDED FOR COOLING THE HOUSES IN THE HOT SUMMER MONTHS BETWEEN OCTOBER AND APRIL, NOT FOR HEATING. Electric blankets, blankets, duvets, hot water bottles are provided and each house has a fireplace. The properties are self check in and while the owner lives on a nearby farm, our manager is always available should you wish to meet or have any queries. She will message you on the day before your arrival with all check in details
We are privileged to live near the graceful town of Graaff Reinet, in the Great Karoo with views to marvel at and history to appreciate. We enjoy restoring classic period properties and welcome guests to enjoy their stay in this beautiful part of the world.
Nilene’s place is located in Graaff-Reinet, Eastern Cape, South Africa. Graaff-Reinet is one of the oldest towns in South Africa and among the most beautiful. There is a strong Cape Dutch architectural influence and the wide streets are lined with jacaranda and flamboyant trees. There are charming restaurants, museums and cafes, antique shops, spas, a bookshop, deli, and other local businesses, as well as larger country-wide chains for clothing, grocery and equipment purchases. The town is surrounded largely by national park, farms and private game reserves.
