Reviews from Sandcastle B&B guests
“Our hosts went out of their way to provide a uniquely South African experience to my friends who were visiting from Australia and America. We visited over the Christmas break where most things are closed. Rudolf personally called and drove us to estates which allowed my friends to savour fine South African wine. I would advise all to definitely consider this pearl,” wrote nsingh960129 on their TripAdvisor page.
