Reviews

  • "Luxurious overnight stay"

    28 August 2018

    "We so enjoyed our overnight stay at Ou Skool. The classrooms of this old school have been beautifully and tastefully converted into rooms that are named after school subjects. We stayed in the music room. The bedding is luxurious and the bathroom spotless with complimentary shower gel, shampoo etc. Some of the rooms have self catering too. We had a wonderful braai - the braai facilities were great. There is also a small restaurant/bar on the premises and meals can be arranged. Our hosts made us feel most welcome."

  • "Friendly Staff"

    "The view the place provides"

  • "Not as advertised!!"

    20 August 2017

    "Although DSTV is advertised, there was nothing at the guest house. I booked the triple room (because of the advert showing a kitchen for self catering). I was allocated a different room upon arrival (no microwave) and had to request my original booking. One wall plug was unserviceable and a multi plug was allocated. We had to put the kettle on the ground due to the lead being to short, and remove and insert plugs to make appliances work. Locals adjacent played loud music and had a big party. NEVER AGAIN!!"

  • "Visit Augrabies Park"

    19 August 2017

    "Nice place and very friendly people!"

  • "Beautiful place, wonderful staff"

    08 February 2016

    "What a beautiful place! Turning an old school into a guesthouse was a fantastic idea and the owner has carried the theme through with school-type room names. The building is beautiful, the lawns and gardens gorgeous and the setting (a working vineyard) exquisite. The staff were very welcoming and friendly ensuring we had a wonderful stay."

  • "Ou Skool Guesthouse"

    26 March 2014

    "Ons het toe nie daar oorgebly nie, aangesien hulle nie die kamer vir ons geboek het nie, nadat ons die volle bedrag betaal het vir die kamer. Daar was toe n dubbele bespreking gewees en het hulle ons na n ander gastehuis verwys. Toevallig was daar nog mense gewees wat vir n karavaanstaanplek betaal het, en hulle is ook na n ander park verwys is."

  • "Enjoyed our stay"

    07 January 2014

    "Enjoyed our stay. The rooms are comfortable, however the cost of breakfast was fairly high considering what was served. They also need to look at the cold drinks in the fridge in reception as the one we bought was expired and was undrinkable."

    06 October 2013

    "We loved our stay at Ou Skool Guesthouse. Even though it was an over nighter it was comfortable and the food was delicious and homely. We experienced a problem with the shower in our room as you could not open the hot and cold taps together so that was not pleasant. Otherwise a pleasant stop over."
