“Spacious and comfy”
Very friendly and helpful host . Beautiful setting. If I am brutally honest the decor is a bit outdated and I do prefer white sheets and towels. However the accommodation is spacious and clean and offers everything needed for a comfortable stayover . I would definitely stay again.

“One of the highlights of our trip!”
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Chevandeaux. Our host Marelize was so friendly and accommodating and the unit had everything and more we could ask for. The property is also very conveniently located close to many wine farms as well as the town centre

“Absolutely perfect”
The owners were amazing and provide all the information and help needed before, during, and after. The space was huge with a full equipped kitchen, living room with tv and indoor fireplace, a huge bathroom with towels, shampoo and shower gel and a bedroom with everything that you need for a good and comfortable night. The location was perfect because we did the Wine Tram and was absolutely amazing being so close from the station and some of the best wine farms. They have parking inside of the accomodation.

We loved the exterior architecture. The welcome. But also the thoughtful touches like the gift books in the living room. The accommodation was very spacious. It was also nice to have a fridge stocked with everything you need for drinks and snacks.

“Absolutely heaven, wish we were staying for more time.”
It was spotlessly clean and friendly and very easy and walking distance to many wineries. Stunning surrounding mountains and gorgeous gardens and even a Lilly pad outside our bedroom door. The property was opposite wineries such as leopards leap, and walking distance from la mote, and walking distance did an excellent restaurant called La Maison.

“Fantastic !”
The apartment is spacious, clean and has everything you need for a short or longer stay. The whole house is in a very quiet and secure location, close to great wineries. Marilize is welcoming and ready to offer advice if needed. The price is unbeatable for the value, including the possibility to use the washing machine, the honesty bar, etc. And the garden is lovely, as well as the pond just outsider the apartment. The dogs also add a nice touch to the home away from home feeling.
