Yellow Lodge, South Africa

Adam Chapman

I was pleasantly surprised by Yellow Lodge. As it is so reasonably priced I didn't expect the rooms and setting to be so lovely. The gardens are so inviting and the position of the lodge, tucked away from the busier streets of Stellenbosch, makes it a peaceful place to stay for a couple of nights. I would highly recommend this quaint lodge in this historically important building.

Yellow Lodge Guest House is tucked away in a quiet maple-lined street in the vibrant university town of Stellenbosch, the centre of the famous winelands. Excellent German hospitality awaits you in this 3-Star guesthouse. Formerly a pastor's home, this lovingly restored National Heritage building invites you to relax in one of the eight spacious en-suite rooms or in the apartment. Each room is individually furnished in a tasteful contemporary style, with ample packing space and designer seating. The Yellow Lodge's garden is an oasis. Several fountains, a small swimming pool and beautifully landscaped, shady areas where cool beverages or coffee and tea are gladly served, will soothe you at the end of a long day of sightseeing.

Holiday to South Africa during February 2011

South Africa Review

We have been to South Africa before in February/March when it is the depths of winter in the UK. Envigorating to get away from our dismal weather and the South Africans we have met have always made us welcome. Where we have been, we have alway felt safe although we have clearly avoided the townships...
