Slaley Country House

We were pleasantly surprised at the large stylish and confortable room. Couldnt fauslt it especially as it was very good value for money.

A fabulous country house! Good sized room with very comfortable bed, pillows and bedding (make or break requirement for me) and absolutely stunning open plan bathroom with gorgeous huge tub, walk in shower etc. Execptional staff, going the extra mile with personal detail eg complimentary bottle of wine and more. Good breakfast. Thank you for a wonderful stay Kim, Denise & Monica.

We were staying for a night to attend an event. The property is conveniently located just off the main road from Stellenbosch to Franschhoek. The room was big with a very comfortable king size bed. Patio has a lovely view, we enjoyed sundowners watching sunset. Hostess Kim was amazing in accommodating all our needs. Will definitely come back for another stay.

Slaley Country House was perfect for my overnight stay after attending a wedding nearby. My room was very comfortable with thoughtful added touches. The staff were welcoming and attentive. Waking up in the beautiful countryside was a treat! Highly recommended.

We only stayed a night but would definitely book again and stay longer. Clean, inviting, friendly staff and relaxing atmosphere. Not far from Stellenbosch and close to the wine farms. Will come again!

We and our friends booked two double rooms for 5 nights at Slayley Country House in February on the basis of the reviews we had read – HUGE MISTAKE!! The good points were that the beds were comfortable and the rooms were clean but… We have stayed in several guest houses in South Africa and this place was the worst we have experienced by a long way! The bathrooms and toilets had floor to ceiling glass walls so there was no privacy whatsoever. There was nowhere in the rooms to open our cases on so we had to store them opened on the floor. The swimming pool water was very murky (we have owned a pool and know that this is due to the filtration system not being properly maintained). You certainly could not see the bottom and had no clue as to how deep it was. None of the sunbeds had mattresses on them, there were no sun umbrellas and the waste bin in the toilet was overflowing with paper towels and clearly hadn’t been cleaned out for a while. Breakfast was served in a room with one long glass wall with no aircon or fan, so it was like eating in an oven most mornings. Cats roamed the dining room and often jumped up onto the tables and food area without any control by the staff. There were many steps on different levels between the car park and the rooms which made taking cases to and from the room very difficult. Definitely not a place to stay if you have mobility problems.

I arrived at slaley house and found the location very relaxing the service was first class and our bedroom was very neat and tidy, this place felt like i just want to come back again lol, the breakfast was amazing and im definitely going back soon🙌🙌🙌

We chose Slaley Country House as the price was very reasonable and close to our lunch venue. Kim’s service was excellent. One room had a view of the mountain, the other the garden. Rooms were comfy and the complimentary bottles of wine a very nice touch.

Lovely guest house, good location in Stellenbosch - close to Paarl and Francschhoek, fabulous breakfast, super staff, secure parking on site, well-furnished bedrooms. Bit of traffic from main road - only negative comment
