What Guests Say

Restaurant/places to eat in Summerwood Guest House

Fiona & Paulet were very accommodating with the little things I needed to make my stay easier. Also, their extra touches for example tea snacks in the lounge in the afternoons/evenings made me feel most welcome. I had guests over to spend the afternoon by the pool & they were also made to feel welcome. We were even offered an ice-cream treat on a warm summer afternoon - that really made us feel like we were at home. All the practical things were great: room, bed, facilities in the house & breakfasts. The location was excellent with close access to everything I needed in Stellenbosch & I could park my car at the guesthouse. Definitely a recommendation from me.

Summerwood is a wonderful heritage home in an amazing location (close to central Stellenbosch and the University campus) and set in a beautiful garden. The staff are friendly and very helpful.

The location was perfect- you could walk into town or cycle as bikes were available to use Our room (4) was spacious, really comfy bead, phone charging points, nice bathroom with separate shower and bath and views over the garden and pool. The garden and pool area was beautiful with sunbeds and towels provided. The breakfasts each morning were delicious. The whole guesthouse was delightful and Fiona was so good at providing a friendly atmosphere and any information we wanted. Nothing was too much trouble.We didn’t want to leave.

We really enjoyed our time at the Summerwood Guest House. We have been at many Guest Houses and AirBnB at our time in SA, but this was definately the best. It felt like coming home with modern, comfortable and super clean rooms, cosy lobby, great breakfast and a relaxing garden and pool area. Fiona is an absolute Angel, making us feel so welcomed as friends and took great care of all questions and requests. Can definately recommend as 10/10 stay!

Excellent service, wonderful safe and warm atmosphere. Great Nespresso machine in the room and in the main reception area. Delicious carrot cake was always available with your Nespresso in the lounge. Loved the small touches like the treats in the glass jar. Everything was pristine and the garden is beautiful. Loved the bunnies in the garden. The safe parking was an absolute pleasure. Look forward to the next stay here! ❤️

The perfect place to stay with an easy walk to the centre of Stellenbosch and its great restaurants. The guest house is beautiful, breakfast was delicious, staff are lovely and Fiona is a fabulous host. The free bikes were an added bonus and we enjoyed cycling to a couple of local wineries. We could not have wished for more and we are already planning a return visit.

The Summerwood location is ideal to walk into Stellenbosch. The garden & pool were a welcome break after the heat of the day. The room & all communal areas, like the lounge, were really good. The staff were very friendly & helpful, Fiona the owner in particular. Nothing was ever too much trouble. The star of the show has to be breakfast. The granola is fantastic & the various options of eggs, bacon, sourdough, avocado etc. were fully researched on our visit. 10/10 every time!!
