Absolutely recommend this place! Perfect value for money! Nice accommodation well located in Swellendam. The hosts were very lovely and always helpful with good recommendations. The accommodation had everything we needed, was clean and bed was comfy. Although the room was not that big, we had a small patio, a terrace with view over Swellendam as well as a big shared rooftop terrace, which was absolutely amazing! We saw a stunning sundowner from there and had a nice view of the mountains.

We absolutely loved staying at Riverbed Guesthouse! The room + bath are spacious, super clean, stylish and comfy. We really appreciated the little details e.g. the coffee machine incl. milk frother. The garden is awesome with a nice pool, a little stream in the back and a beautiful view on the mountains. Further, the owners were super friendly - we immediately felt welcome and at home. Thank you for having us!

Cheré made what we thought would simply be a pit stop on our journey along the Garden Route into something very special with her attention to detail and desire to make our short stay special. We were on our honeymoon and Cheré pulled out all the stops to make our stay very memorable. Don't hesitate to book a stay here. You will love it.

We enjoyed our short stay at Birdsong cottage. Its well located within a few minutes walk of several restaurants as well as the older, historical part of Swellendam. The cottage is situated within a beautiful garden. under trees and was cool in the summer heat. It also has a fire place for winter evenings. We noted that the cottage was tastefully styled and the pictures were an accurate reflection of how it looks. The king sized bed was very comfortable and had quality bed linen. Colin was a great host, friendly and informative. We would stay there again.
