BloomEstate (Swellendam, Cape Town) 1 Hotel Reviews | Tablet Hotels

"Not quite a hotel, not really a bed and breakfast, Bloomestate is the sort of small, individually-owned lodging that defies categorization. At the edge of the old Dutch colonial town of Swellendam, in South Africa’s Western Cape, it’s more likely a stop on a longer tour of the country — but anyone who makes the effort will be amply rewarded by the mellow atmosphere and the well-composed modernist décor." - Tablet Hotels

Bloomestate, Swellendam, South Africa - Explore & Book

"Midway between Cape Town and Plettenberg Bay, Swellendam is a natural place to break up your journey along the Garden Route. This sleepy town in the foothills of the Langeberg Mountains has some of South Africa’s finest Cape Dutch architecture, and the surrounding hillsides are home to some of the country's best preserved fynbos. Bloomestate is tucked away behind high walls in a quiet leafy suburb, whose peacefulness it shares. The layout of its 4 low, modern buildings, separated by neatly cut lawns, towering trees and beds of lavender, was inspired by the low, sober lines of classic Cape Dutch architecture. But its design and décor represent a complete break with tradition: expect a fusion of state-of-the art fittings and contemporary furnishings with a big twist of Zen minimalism. Every corner of its colourful guest bedrooms and gardens has been conceived with maximum aesthetic appeal in mind. And you're assured of a warm welcome from Calvin and Chere. Highs The leafy, lawned garden feels like a really safe haven and is really conducive to R&RContemporary design in the 7 vivid, comfortable bedroomsThe guest lounge, dining room and bedrooms all are light and airy thanks to a maximum number of windowsSwellendam is one of the prettiest towns along the Garden Route Bloomestate is excellent value and you get a whole lot of comfort for your Rands Lows No meals other than breakfast and light lunches (e.g. salad) are on offer; but you are right next door to a decent restaurant and there are several more good eateries in townYou hear the faint rumble of the N2 coastal highway when sitting out in the gardenThe terraces outside the rooms lack tables and chairs, but there are patios with benches" - Guy Hunter Watts

Delightrul B&B in beautiful gardens. The rooms are spacious and all individually decorated, They have everything you could possibly want and there are kitchen facilities in a separate block if you need them, Breakfast is outstanding. Cheré and Calvin are both very friendly and helpful. Cheré provides information about local restaurants and is very happy to book for you if you would like her to, We would not look anywhere else if we are staying within a reasonable distance of Swellendam, Thank you very much indeed. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay,

Wee stayed 2 nights and are so pleased we did. Calvin and Chere have created the most wonderful place. The attention to detail is phenomenal they have considered every aspect of the guest experience and yet it’s done with such a light touch that you feel relaxed and comfortable. The suites are light and spacious with great decor, the bathroom too. Each one has lovely views across the gardens or up to the mountain. They welcome you with genuine warmth and offer good advice and recommendations. Breakfast - well you couldn’t get better anywhere because the ingredients are of such quality - including the very best seedy bread, jams from the fruit trees, delicious light sweet or savoury pastries, (wouldn’t be out of place in a high end afternoon tea) the largest selection of teas and freshly cooked hot dishes served in a light filled room overlooking the gardens. It’s a beautiful oasis on the edge of town surrounded by trees and full of birds - it is so tranquil. We stayed here to hike in Marloth Nature Reserve - stunning views and streams. If you are passing through Swellendam this way - stop and stay - it’s a very very classy place!! They deserve to be very successful.

We travel to Cape Town often and discovered this absolute wonderful 5star gem in Swellendam, BLOOMESTATE. Everything about this accommodation is excellent. The rooms is beautifully decorated, the bedding of the very best, and the breakfast delicious. Chere always goes out of her way to make us feel welcome! We can definitely recommend BLOOMESTATE, THE VERY VERY BEST in Swellendam for we stayed in many other places but BLOOMESTATE ACCOMMIDATION is NR.1. Kind regards Basil e Delma Ross

Even though we arrived 2 hours late, we were warmly welcomed by Chere. She was waiting for us on the drive and showed us round the house and garden. |While we were stuck in traffic jam, she had contacted all the restaurants in town to see where we could still go for dinner. She gave us the options upon arrival and called the restaurant herself to make sure we’d still get in. |The room and ensuite bathroom were very neat, the interior is very stylishly decorated and we had everything we could wish for (drinks and a snack in the fridge, …).|The room is situated in a beautiful and large garden with lots of flowers, there’s a swimming pool and a separate building for all sorts of leisure activities. |We enjoyed a very nice and cosy breakfast in a stylish dining room, where we were sitting near the fire. Breakfast consisted of a variety of homemade products, a buffet of cheeses, meat, salmon, different sorts of bread, croissants, eggs, yoghurt, (homemade) cerials, …!|Bloomestate is an ideal stay if you can enjoy a quiet stay surrounded by nature. ❤️

Bloomestate is a life changer. Where else can you stay with an orchard at your doorstep, a tranquil wetland to reconnect with nature, and a poolside area that rivals the French Riviera? Bloomestate offers all this with the hospitality of a boutique hotel. To stay at Bloomestate is to become royalty and to enjoy the best breakfast in town.
