I spent one night in Merindol Manor in the first week of December 2023, and I can say without a shadow of a doubt that I will be back. Firstly - the house and grounds are gorgeous, with the period features carefully juxtaposed with modern touches like power inverter (to counteract the notorious SA loadshedding), fast & reliable wifi, and Nespresso coffee machines in each room. When I arrived I was the only guest so Vincent allowed me the pick of the rooms. My suite (Chenin) was huge, with impressive views over the immaculate gardens, with a feature 4 poster bed and gigantic ensuite bathroom. Bed was comfortable and luxurious - just what I needed after a long haul flight. The next morning, I had a delicious breakfast served out on the "stoep" (patio) and ate while the birds sang in the flowering jacaranda trees in the garden. The owner and host (Vincent) was friendly, attentive and made sure I felt right at home. When he saw I was travelling along, he even kindly invited me to join him for dinner that night, but I had already made plans to meet some friends and family at a local restaurant. All in all, I am so pleased I chose to stay here. I'm already planning my next trip back in 2024.
