Bethulie Guest Farm

Bethulie Guest Farm

10/10 Excellent
"Wayne and his wife were exceptional hosts in all respects. In fact, our stay at Bethulie was the absolute highlights of our drive from George to Durban. We are grateful for all the invaluable wealth of information about the area provided to us by our hosts and the incedibly warm welcome we received at a truly iconic, stately farm house that is over 125 years old. The facilities and room we stayed at are impeccably clean and filled with timeless, classical furnishings which transports one to an era long past. We urge any visitors to this area to make sure you stay at the "White House" in Bethulie. You will not be disappointed."
