Posted onVerified Quirky and Stylish! What an experience! The attention to detail is just out of this world. From earbuds, coffee capsules, wood, wine and the most divine fresh milk from the local dairy this is just a perfect experience. Whilst you are on one property you are totally private and safe and we had a lovely braai under the African Stars.Posted onVerified SUPERB!!!! Was absolutely superb. Everything was next level and they thought of every little detail. The decor was exquisite! We loved every moment. Can’t wait to go back.Posted onVerified Superb, quiet accommodation in Prince Albert This is one of the best places we've stayed in the Western Cape. The cottage was spotless and it had every amenity we needed. Much appreciated was the AC, since it was 38° when we were there in January. The cottage feels very spacious and the outside terrace was brilliant for lying and reading or just dozing. The gardens are beautiful and it all feels very private. It was great to start the day with a swim in the pool and then have breakfast on the terrace. The host was extremely helpful and she helped us to plan out visits to local restaurants at night. The area feels very safe and it is no problem to walk home at night from the restaurants. If you are interested in cheese, the local dairy, Gay's is well worth a visit! I can't rate Olive Grove House highly enough and we are looking forward to visiting again next year.Posted onVerified Perfect stay in a stunning town Figs in the fridge were a big treat and beautifully presented. We loved all the detail of the cottage. A true gem.Posted onVerified Home from home We had a wonderful 2 nights at Olive Grove Cottage. Dee was so accommodating and friendly. The house is very comfortable and lovely attention to detail. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend the house. Very comfortable bed.Posted onVerified Beautiful! Geweldig!! Een heerlijke cottage met alles wat we nodig hadden. Fijne buitenkeuken en terras, lekker zwembad en fantastische host! Prince Albert is één van onze favoriete plaatsen in Zuid-Afrika en dit is een perfecte uitvalsbasis. Deborah weet alles over de goede restaurants!Posted onVerified Two Nights were too short! What a wonderful stay at Olive Grove House. Drinks and dips in the gorgeous pool; a braai in the braai 'enclosure' and alfresco dining under the vines and stars; outdoor showers and time to unwind and soak up the birdlife on the glorious patio. The house is beautifully decorated and the bedrooms are completely separate and private from each other. The kitchen fireplace kept us cosy when the weather turned fresh. Meandering down the quaint streets of a well-maintained, safe Prince Albert and dining out were wonderful too. We were so sad that we had only booked a 2 nights and could have stayed a whole week. Thank you Dee and Daniel and we long to return to your paradise.Posted onVerified An Amazing Stay at Olive Grove House – Pure Karoo Bliss! From the moment we booked our stay at Olive Grove House in Prince Albert, the experience was nothing short of perfect. The communication was excellent and seamless, with everything clearly communicated from booking to check-out. Upon arrival, we were greeted by our warm and authentic host, Deborah, who made us feel at home immediately. The cottage itself is beautifully decorated with warm colors and hand-picked furniture that adds to its cozy charm. The attention to detail is evident, e.g. in the luxurious bed and bathroom linen, which made our stay even more comfortable. The braai area was properly equipped with everything we needed, including dry wood, making it easy to enjoy a traditional South African braai. We were particularly impressed by the backup solar system, which ensured a smooth, uninterrupted stay due to a blackout in the area during our stay. The garden was a true highlight — beautifully manicured and complete with an inviting swimming pool that is perfect for a quick dip. The kitchen was well-equipped with quality glasses and utensils, offering a variety of coffee options, from coffee pods and a machine to a French press, catering to every coffee lover's needs. The patio with loungers, chairs, and a cozy couch was the perfect spot to soak in the tranquility of the garden and the stunning Karoo evenings. After a long week, the comfortable king-size bed provided the ultimate relaxation, allowing for a deep and peaceful sleep. We highly recommend booking a stay at Olive Grove House. It's the perfect escape to relax, recharge, and enjoy the beauty of the Karoo!Posted onVerified Olive Grove House We had a wonderful stay at Olive Grove House. The rooms were spacious, clean, and tastefully decorated, providing a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. We highly recommend Olive Grove House for anyone seeking a serene and delightful getaway. HMPosted onVerified Clean, comfortable - ideal A super spot for self catering or trying out the tastes of Prince Albert. A thoughtfully decorated and well equipped cottage that was not too remote. The cottage was clean, comfortable and has super sitting areas outside.
