Disappointing and not a hotel, but a B&B
This place looks like a nice hotel on the website, but is just a bed & breakfast! The owners live in England and leave the management to a lady who talks all the time, but is nowhere to find if you need her and is not even in the house between 10 p.m. and the next morning, so at night you are all alone in the middle of nowhere, 30 minutes from Stellenbosch. All you get is a mobile number you can call in case of emergency! This does not feel safe at all, despite the huge electrical fence around the grounds, that gives it a bit of a concentration camp feel. The rooms are nicely decorated, but the beds are hard and very small. There was no door in my bathroom/ toilet, not very nice! During the night, mice were running on the ceiling and keeping me awake. They have no dining room or breakfast room, so you have to sit with all the other guests at al long table to have breakfast. I would have liked to know this, before I made the decision to book a room here. There is nothing to eat during the day, although they say they have room-service. Breakfast was awful, some buns and jams with flies all over. No freshly baked bread. Everything was very amateurish. There are two big dogs walking in the house. I like dogs, but if people are allergic for dogs or afraid, this is not nice at all. There is no airconditioning, so it gets hot in summer! The garden is not well maintained. You hear the noise from the motorway to Cape Town when you are outside. My advice: look for some place elsewhere!

Dear Caroline, I’m so sorry that Hawksmoor wasn’t a fit with your expectations. It’s important to us that our guests leave Hawksmoor with great memories, and we take it to heart when this doesn’t happen. We’ve done our very best to convey on our online listings the authentic country feel of Hawksmoor House. However, not all listings allow us to write the descriptive text ourselves. Thank you for letting us know about your experience: it’s important that we get feedback from guests to let us know when there may be a mismatch between the listings and your experience. We will be working on this in the next couple of days to see if we can add aspects such as our country kitchen dinner menu to the listing, and checking that there’s nothing on our own website that we need to tweak. Again, thank you very much for your feedback: it helps us to get better at what we do.

Klassisch kap-holländisch
Hawksmoor House ist ein klassisches, 300 Jahre altes Capholländisches Bauerngehöft. Wir waren zuerst im Herrenhaus untergebracht, dann in einem Nachbargebäude. Beide Zimmer waren ausserordentlich schön. Der Service war sehr freundlich. Zu bemängeln gab es nichts. Allerdings sollten Reisende wissen, dass die Anfahrt über einen unbefestigten Weg erfolgt. Wifi gibt es nur im Herrenhaus. Nach einer Corona-Pause könnte hie und da die Fassade frisch gestrichen werden. Aber dies sind wirklich winzige Details.

Excellent for a base to explore the area / quick stop over / weekend break etc. Superior Rooms were well appointed, clean and reasonably modern (refurbished old slaves quarters) whereas some of the standard rooms were much older / traditional. Manor house is steeped in history, but the general upkeep of the buildings and gardens could do with a bit of tlc / sprucing up here and there - some areas felt a little neglected. But all in all a pleasant return stay and we would recommend Hawksmoor House for future stays at the current room rate.

Luxus fehlt leider in Luxury Rooms
Schönes großes Grundstück aber nicht gepflegt und in die Jahre gekommen, nette Idee mit den Antiquitäten - sollten aber auch gepflegt werden, große Zimmer mit Terasse und Ausblick, große Dusche, kaum Wasser aus Duschamatur - mühsames Duschen, gutes Frühstück, leider viele Flecken und Löcher in den Bettdecken, Terrassen total ungepflegt und dreckig

Obrigado por ficar com a gente e tendo o tempo para escrever um comentário. É com o nosso profundo arrependimento que você estava descontente com a nossa casa de hóspedes e, assim, você não está desfrutando de sua estadia conosco. Estamos tristes com o fato de que a propriedade não atendeu às suas expectativas e que foram desanimados pelas instalações que temos de oferta. No entanto, deixar claro que não há televisores nos quartos e Wi-Fi nos quartos no nosso site e todas as plataformas de terceiros. Estamos trabalhando com nossos fornecedores técnicos para encontrar uma maneira de fornecer consistente internet e conectividade em nossa localização remota. Nós nos esforçamos para agradar a todos que visitam Hawksmoor, e nosso lamento mais profundo é que em uma hora, nós não poderíamos convencê-lo do encanto de Hawksmoor. Os mais desejos, a equipe de Hawksmoor.

Perfect Farmhouse Getaway!
Our stay at Hawksmoor house, while short, was beautiful. The property is stunning! It is a 300 year old working farm and every room has so much character. It felt like we were visiting the french countryside! The only thing to note is that this farm is a twenty minute drive from Stellenbosch, which was fine for us. We preferred staying outside of the city a bit and can't wait to come back!

Great food and top notch service
Hawksmoor House was a fantastic last minute deal on Hotels.com. The rooms are large and rustic but with plenty of modern amenities. I would have preferred wifi in the room as I need that while traveling but if that is not a necessity for you, then I recommend this as a great retreat from technology. Great food and top notch service.

Beautiful hotel with stunning scenery
Stunning country manor style hotel set deep within the wine lands. The relaxed atmosphere, fantastic breakfast and attentive staff all added to a very enjoyable stay. Beautiful scented roses in the bedroom when we arrived and French melodies on in the kitchen. Room was very clean and had a modern bathroom. The only criticisms I can think of are that the wifi only works in the dining room, the slight brownish tinge to the bath water and small frog in the pool which some might find unpleasant, but we relished as typical of a house of this age and style. A fantastic getaway from modern trappings!

a lovely rural guesthouse
We enjoyed being back in our wedding venue after 5years. it is a very quiet and rural place and the weather was terrible and there is not much else to do nearby but we knew this and chose to come for a lovely peaceful night in front of the fire. we were served afternoon tea and cupcakes on arrival on the covered terrace and it was lovely. The communal breakfast area was quite cold and lacked a presence of staff for some time when we arrive. Although we had good service on arrival with the help of our bags I do find it could be more attentive in the morning.
Reactie van Kirsten op 3 jan 2015
Hi there, Thanks so much for your lovely review. We're so honoured you chose to come back and visit a few years after your wedding! We agree, the fireplace (with a cup of tea and a cupcake) is definitely the best place to be when the weather is bad! We're so sorry that you were not promptly attended to in the morning. We have alerted the staff on the morning of this mishap. Thanks for your constructive criticism - it helps us get better at what we do. We hope to have you back in years to come and wish you all the best. Take care, The Bailey family and the Hawksmoor team
