An overnight stay with sunsets, karoo lamb and sweet dreams

We were welcomed back warmly and Rob was very helpful with our trailer, thank you. He also helped us with directions to the valley of Desolation and we had the most magnificent sunset up there. The breakfast was excellent thank you for a great overnight stay on our roadtrip.

Travel back in time with homemade breakfast and an electric blanket.

Lot's of effort put in to make it feel unique and relaxing. The room smells great. Electric blanket was a welcome touch. Very friendly host.

It was very good.

Nothing more, because I got breakfast packs. But for future they can improve on supplying coffee satchets. Otherwise I liked the place, it was very convenient for me in terms of direction, closeness to my venue, tranquility and security. Friendly people

We had a wonderful stay at Whyte House Guesthouse, thanks to the friendly and caring staff. The property offers secure parking inside, which provided peace of mind during our visit. We stayed in the upstairs room, which was incredibly spacious and felt like a honeymoon suite. The comfortable king-sized bed was adorned with crisp, clean white sheets, ensuring a restful sleep. The sitting area offered beautiful views of the nearby mountains, adding to the charm of the room. Our breakfast was fantastic—friendly staff at the breakfast reception made us feel very welcome. The vegetables served were freshly harvested from the garden; we particularly enjoyed watching the spinach being picked for our omelettes. The homemade sweet potato bread was absolutely delicious. The town felt safe enough for us to walk to Hello-You Cuisine restaurant, which we appreciated. Our host, Vicki, kindly booked our dinner reservations, a gesture we found very helpful. Overall, our experience was exceptional, and we would definitely love to visit again. Thank you for a memorable stay!

Perfect place for an overnight rest on our travels down to the Cape East Coast.

One of those places that makes you feel instantly at home and you know immediately you will stay again if the opportunity ever arises. Rob and Amy are the most down to earth hosts and nothing is a problem.
