Out of season you can enjoy a 20% discount on all tariffs. The rates for a single person depend on the occupancy at the time of booking.

Well recommended by

We had a fantastic weekend away at Aasvoëlkrans, Montagu. The room is nicely done with artistic touch on every corner of the place and very calming atmosphere. Will very sure come and stay again if we come to Montagu.

Awesome Experience by

We had the most beautiful experience at this B&B. Stunning place, very creative setting on this beautiful peace of land. Wish we could have had more time there to enjoy the setting. Enjoyed the beautiful table setting with poppies and a delicious breakfast. Lots of attention to details - will highly recommend the venue. Thank you for sharing your peace of beauty with us.


Arty and peaceful by

Great accommodation beautifully and eccentrically decorated on a small farm. We were slightly disappointed that the kitchen facilities were outside but overall a peaceful beautiful stay with an excellent breakfast the next morning!
