Waterways is a family run guest house that is in superb setting with excellent hosts Hilton and Julia. The home away from home environment,lovely breakfast and excellent views location were exactly what we needed. Thanks.


Perfect stay at Waterways by

We stayed 2 nights at waterways this week. The property lies in a beautiful spot by the canal. Hilton and Julia made us so welcome and looked after us very well and even shared sundowners with us on the sun bench by the water. We loved the fact we could use their canoe to take a look around the canal system.
Breakfast was delicious especially Julia's homemade bread. All in all a lovely 2 nights and would love to return.

Have spent two nights with Julia and Hilton. Friendly hosts, beautiful room (upstairs), excellent breakfast, possibility of canoo and boattrips. Enjoyed it very much and - if ever coming again to SA - will choose this B&B. Highly recommendable.




A very pleasant stay, beautiful place and very friendly hosts.


Our stay was amazing all round Wonderful and will return asap by

The location is incredible, views outstanding, rooms lovely , cosy and warm and incredibly clean. Safe and secure and good off road parking. Coffee provided in the rooms (not expected) was delicious The hosts, Hilton and Julia provide extra spoils - like special shampoo (not generic sachets) big fluffy towels and an abundance of advice and kindness. Lots of laughs too. The upstairs Room was spacious with a private balcony. The B n B was a home from home for us. Wonderfully private Thank you Hilton and Julia for a 5 Star Stay
