    The host, Adele, was very helpful up until late at night, ensuring that everything was fine. And the house was equipped with everything we needed(well except plasters in 1st Aid bag😅)

    The house was very comfortable and spacious. Host was very accommodating. Wood was available at the braai and measures in place for loadshedding. Very quiet and relaxing environment.

The guesthouse is a fully equiped house with 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and an inside braai. The inside braai makes it a cozy house with a welcoming atmosphere. Swim, fish and relax at the river. A large part of the way from BP Garage, Buffeljagsrivier, is a gravel road. Standard vehicles needs to drive slowly. Please enquire before or on booking about the conditions of the road. The road conditions can change as the weather does.
Oorvloed Guesthouse is the perfect get away from the city buzz. The house is situated on a working farm, close to the Breederivier and the Malagas pont, the way to De Hoop Nature Reserve, Potberg and Infanta. Our historic town, Swellendam is a must to visit, with the museum, coffee shops, pottery, berryfarms and so much more. Marloth Park have very scenic hiking trails to the waterfalls. Swellendam have also created new cycling trails to enjoy.
