We had a very good stay at The Residence At Villa Wiese. We booked a family room - it's an ensuite room with a double bed and an upstairs room with single beds for the kids.(They loved having their own space upstairs.) The rooms are clean, comfortable and cosy. Breakfast is included in the stay and is served buffet style, offering a variety of food. The guest house is conveniently situated in the centre of town. We parked our car and walked everywhere. Everything (shops, restaurants, cafes etc.) is reachable within 10 minutes on foot. The guest house also has a little deli type shop - where you can buy farm fresh produce and souvenirs made by local craftsmen. All in all, definitely good value for money. We will definitely stay there again.
