Whistlewood is an excellent guesthouse. The bedrooms are very comfortable. The breakfast facilities are great with loads of choice and while you make it yourself there is loads to choose from. The honesty bar is fabulous and although we didn't use it the choice and value are great.

Room was huge and very clean. The bed was so comfortable- one of the best night sleeps we've had in SA Tommy and Leonie went out of their way to share recommendations and advice to make sure we were safe when exploring SA. We would definitely stay with them again if we return to PE!

We were very warmly welcomed by Edouard. He immediately made us feel relaxed and at home. The house has a lovely garden, with an abundant bird life - as well as a pool. We were highly grateful to Edouard for upgrading us to a larger unit. We especially enjoyed his company and the lively discussions during the lovely breakfast which he personally prepared. He provided good tips for restaurants and other places of interest, such as the Addo Elephant Park, which is within reasonable driving distance to 39 on Nile. This B & B is excellent value for money. When we left, we felt as if we were leaving a friend behind and we'd love to be back

A very cleverly designed guest house where each room has a private garden. All the rooms were modern. Our room also had a kitchenette. Geoff was an amazing host and all the staff were super friendly and helpful. The breakfast provided was delicious. The property was situated in a quiet cul de sac in Walmer, which was very central.

We felt at home from the moment we arrived. Karin made us feel so welcome. My 3 year old had the most amazing time at the guesthouse. The house and all facilities were amazing. We had a light working when there was loadshedding, so we were completely in the dark. Karin and Morne are great hosts. We will definitely be back again in summer to swim in the pool.

We visited on a very cold weekend and the guesthouse was filled with so much warmth (fireplace, heater, electric blanket). Our host even availed light breakfast fully complimentary. The guesthouse was centrally located and therefore easily accessible to the areas we were visiting. Jane was truly a great host.
