I experienced such a friendly welcome, and the most feminine and exuberantly decorated room that had been created with great flair. The warmth of the hospitality and generosity of spirit was truly one of a kind. Thank you Gys for a very happy stay.

We spent a lovely weekend at 79 Ridge early in December. Our hosts Gys and Denzil were friendly and welcoming, which made us feel at home immediately. We stayed in the self-catering unit which was extremely comfortable and very well appointed. The pool was great to cool off after the long hot days and nothing was too much trouble for our hosts, so we had an excellent stay.

Fantastic little B and B with lots of character and a great host. Only stayed for the 1 night as we were passing through the area but would definitely recommend it to anyone. Breakfast was HUGE and very tasty. Felt like a nice safe neighbourhood and the property had the usual security kit found in SA. Stay here, you won’t be disappointed.

Gys and Denzil are the perfect hosts. They go out of their way to make their guests feel welcome. The bed and pillows were supercomfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep before our Amashova cycling race. I would highly recommend 79 on Ridge!

This is the most amazing B&B! Beautiful garden, so relaxing. The rooms are generously sized, super comfy beds, spotless bathroom and room. Very interesting deco🙂. Rooms are beautifully decorated, every room has its own theme. Generous breakfast, lovely coffee 😊. Most importantly, the host is welcoming, friendly and warm, very attentive to his guests. I wish I was staying longer! I highly recommend this place if you’re in the area!

From arrival to departure this property, captained by the host, Gys provides an escape from the mundane and delights all the senses. We didn’t get to meet Gys’s partner but Gys ensured our stay was truly memorable. It was the best bed we had ever slept on and breakfast was lovely. Can’t wait to come back

Had a lovely stay with my two daughters. Was only for the one night while in town for a school function. The host was very friendly, and the cottage was super cozy and well equipped with everything I needed. They even left chocolates and cappuccino for us in the rooms.

From the moment I arrived until the drive to the airport, Gys was a perfect host. I can't thank Gys and Denzil enough for their care, hospitality, humour, sharing, amazing breakfasts and immaculate room.
