Marie is a warm and inviting host, nothing appears to be too much trouble. Our room was spacious with an outdoor seating & patio area. The guest house is on the edge of town and so we used a cab service when heading out for dinner in the evening. Marie organised and booked(very cheap and nice driver) She also recommended 2 restaurants where the food was very good. The Swartberg Pass drive was something else and we were glad to reach the very lovely Prince Albert town which was lovely. The Caves were also worth a visit. We would definitely recommend the Earthbound guest house.

Stay here....you won't be disappointed!!
Great stay! Our room was fantastic with a private garden. Very clean, comfortable and roomy! The pool area was comfortable with a fire pit which many guests utilized.The hostess was very helpful with suggesting things for us to do during our stay. Breakfast was absolutely delicious and she even served it earlier than normal to accommodate our early departure.

Quiet and peaceful
This is a really lovely setting, with the rooms having private outdoor sitting areas. Everything is very comfortable and clean. The owner Marie is a wonderful host, friendly, welcoming, and concerned that our visit was perfect. She is very knowledgeable about places to visit in the area. Her dinner recommendations (Jemima's and Nostalgie) were both excellent. This was one of the nicest b&bs that we visited during a 9-day trip to the Cape region of South Africa. Breakfast served in an intimate outdoor (but enclosed for the cool of the morning) dining area was perfect. We were very pleased with our visit.

Great stop
We stayed there one night after a long drive from Franschhoek on road 62. This place was perfect for our day. Close to a couple of good restaurents in town, and in a safe neiborhood. At our arrival we were immidately greeted and showed around the property. The room was really comfortable, and plenty of information were available on what to do in the area. On the next day, we had a delicious breakfast there and were informed on the ostrich farms and the activities to do nearby. Would comeback anytime.

Everything was just wonderful. The room we had was out near the pool, in what it felt like an individual standalone building, so one we were left to it just felt like a home away from home. Never used the pool as it was colder that day and raining, however the honesty box was a great idea, saved us having to pop out for drinks etc. Breakfast was great, tasty and quick. Couldnt fault a thing, clean, comfortable and quiet, would fully recommend!
