At Blaauwheim you enter a Fairytale world. You are welcomed by Palace Gates and the splendour of a lush green garden. Our suite was fit for a queen and Jo-Anne’s breakfast table was so beautifully set with fresh flowers. Johan’s breakfast comes highly recommended — worthy of royalty. Thank you so much for your care, friendliness, and pampering. I curtsy Jo-Anne and Johan. Friendly Regards. Zelda.

Guest review

10.0

Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit bei Johann und Jo-Anne. Ab der ersten Sekunde hat die Chemie gestimmt. Das Frühstück war immer ein absolutes Highlight,mit sehr viel Liebe zubereitet. Die Suite war super ausgestattet und es hat an Nichts gefehlt. Die Lage ist sehr ruhig und wir haben auch hervorragend geschlafen. Vor allem aber haben wir die gemeinsame Zeit und die wirklich hervorragenden Gespräche genossen. Wir werden auf alle Fälle nochmals zurückkommen.

An absolute gem

Everything was first class and the hospitality of Johan and Jo-Anne was second to none.

Kevin · GB · 2026-01-16

Relaxing, beautiful garden with great birdlife and the most helpful, caring hosts Johan and Jo-Anne.

10.0

Breakfasts are superb. Fresh fruit platter every morning served with freshly squeezed orange juice. Extensive cooked Breakfast menu available which Johan prepares and cooked fresh for each individual. The bread rolls and croissants are fetched daily from the bakery and are delicious. Coffee and tea as required. We looked forward to our breakfasts everyday. Thank you Johan and |Jo-Anne.

I cannot think of one thing to dislike about Blaauwheim. Accommodation was excellent, immaculately clean, fresh towels and lovely toiletries provided. There was an Nespresso coffee machine with coffee capsules replenished daily, tea milk and sugar available.
