We loved Amberg, Helga and her staff. We are recomending the property to friends and family for future.

Super beautiful views of the Paarl Valley. Loved the art in my little house. Felt like I stayed in an art gallery.

Absolutely wonderful property in the most delightful location with wonderful staff

This place is absolutely amazing. We’ve had the most wonderful time here and would not hesitate to recommend it to absolutely everyone. A special mention needs to be said about the staff who are so friendly and so helpful as are the owners. It’s impossible not to enjoy your time here, it is a very special place. The outdoor shower is an absolute treat and very easy access to the swimming pool makes it especially wonderful,

Beautiful accommodation in Paarl

What absolutely beautiful accommodation in Berg 1 wow it was so spacious inside the unit and the verandah was L shaped right around the unit and the views of Du Toitskloof Pass absolutely stunning. From our unit you can start walking straight up the mountain through a lovely forest it was fantastic. Helga was so helpful and friendly. With all the appliances in the unit you could see it was all well maintained and in perfect working order. We loved our own outside private shower too. It was 10mins to the Cecelia Road Mall with restaurants and shops it was a large Mall. There is a restaurant there as well and we had a full English breakfast which was exceptional what a chef!! The service was the best too.

Peaceful ambience, fascinating art, gorgeous surroundings and gracious hosts - loved it!

The one and only tiny thing that could be upgraded is the shower - the temperature was difficult to control, which could be uncomfortable in winter, and water pressure was extremely low, but this did not impact our stay at all!

A surprising find at short notice provided excellent clean accommodation for our last week.

This is a fine well run establishment that is well equipped and clean. The cleaning services staff have obviously been very well trained and were friendly, responsive and helpful. Daily service with changes of towels as needed was up to guest house standards never mind self catering. The deep patio on two sides of the property allows movement to maximise shade as needed and also allow maximise enjoyment of the views.
