A beautiful place to stay overnight, especially for groups. The rooms are lovely and there is a self help kitchen. Lots to do outside, hiking, swimming, mountain. biking etc.
Stunning views!very beautiful and peaceful! you can appreciate gods creation! the host friendly! thank you for sponsoring a nights accommodation! for myself Celebrity Nazli George! Aunty Ivy Peterson from 7de laan and my actors! thank you for supporting our Safety from the heart campaign about the pandemic! 5 star place
Thee owners of the property were exceptionally invitingly... the building previously had been the old post office and police station now converted into simply beautiful rooms with modern furniture and bathrooms but leaving the gorgeous vintage floors and walls the same..
Friendly staff and excellent food. Great view of the surrounding area.Been told that its not a town all though they have a church. Its a farming community. Loved the visit.They do have accommodation there for those that want to sleep over. A must visit.
Awesome people. Warm welcome scones the best ever. Thank you
We had a wonderful stay at over the mountain. The quite and beautiful scenery allow you to quickly gear down and relax as you look out across the valley. We found the rooms well appointed and everything clean.It is not often you find somewhere to stay that you can feel part of the goings on. The owners were very friendly and accommodating. We shared a meal with them and enjoyed their company.
Eleven of us arrived at the restaurant half an hour before closing but they cheerfully served us a delicious late afternoon tea. Scones, cream and jam ; cinnamon cakes and pancakes,; chocolate cake, caramel pancakes and bobotie pancakes. Plates were locked cleaned. Beautiful setting at the gateway to Montagu pass, a great stop after a hike/drive in the mountains.
We had a long stay here and so glad we did. Owners and staff are friendly and helpful. We had the most beautiful views of the mountains from House of Grace. Also had a lovely breakfast in the tea garden. We will be back!
After the drive through Montegu pass which could be scary at times, this cosy restaurant provided a welcome rest...
A beautiful place! The room is spotlessly clean and well appointed. Between the peaceful darkness and comfortable beds, one is virtually guaranteed a perfect nights sleep.The view is absolutely breath-taking and they have magnificant gardens with beautiful flowers.It is worth staying for the tea garden on weekends too!
A jewel of a tea garden, nestled in the valleys of the Outaniqua mountain, serving you with all you would need to quench your thirst and quell any hunger pains.
Nice and peaceful.
I was at the church to pick up something. Not at OTM, just past it
We attended a Wedding in Herold last year, the family decided we wanted to have breakfast together the next morning before everyone went their separate ways, the nearest place I could and wanted to breakfast at was Over The Mountain, so I called them and asked pretty please if they could accommodate us, even if it was a scrambled egg and toast, since it was so last minute, we got there and the table was ready for us we had the loveliest Farmhouse Breakfast, took photos together in the Garden and spent such a memorable time together before getting back on the road to the long and short drives ahead of us. I cant wait to get back there after Lockdown ❤️❤️❤️
We had the loveliest brunch here...everything authentic and delicious!
We had the best Sunday lunch in a lovely garden. Friendly service, amazing farm-style food with beautiful scenery. Definitely a must!
You have to take a drive up the scenic Montagu Pass and visit Over the Mountain. Delicious cinnamon buns or scones with coffee is our favourite. But you can have light meals or book for a lunch. You will not easily find such beautiful surroundings anywhere else while enjoying a meal!
Quaint and quiet country stop for tea and scones.
We have just returned from a scrumptious birthday lunch catered by Over the Mountain Guest Farm. It was beautiful sitting in the garden surrounded by gorgeous flowers and a view to the mountains beyond. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating. Service was very good and personal. Highly recommend a visit there in this get-away over themountain from George.
Lockdown is no joke and this establishment has stuck to the rules even though they are losing money. Yesterdays review of 1 star and I dont like the place was both childish and uncalled for.
Very serine - peaceful an scenic, excellent deserts and very friendly host
Stopped over for a cold drink after driving through the Montague Pass. Pleasant surprise A Tea Garden. Quaint and restful. Pleasant staff.
Great home baked delicies.
We enjoyed delicious cinnamon cake. What a treat.
Relaxing resort in the mountain. Find peace, tranquility and yourself at Over the Mountain. Lovely tea garden. Mouthwatering cakes and scones
Beautiful scenery, and lovely house with a lot of history.However, the wife was extremely rude. From the moment we arrived she made us feel most unwelcome. I am uncertain for the reason of our mistreatment?
Hostess excellent. Rooms great, clean with good beds.
Friendly people, beautiful setting. Will enjoy visiting again after Lockdown.
Lots of respect for these hardworking owners whom run a beautiful establishment with ethics and love. Thank you for sharing your beauty with the rest of the world.
My parents from Lempopo loves this place. We also visit it often, very peaceful, friendly and helpfull staff.
Lovely scones and coffee. Do make an effort to visit!
Very welcome rest and rosterkoek brunch after an adventurous trip up Montague pass. Delightful pastoral setting.How about emailing guesthouse rate card.
Amazing area. Nestled in the mountains. Just a short drive from Herolds Wines. Great food in the tea garden as well.
Situated in the historic town of Herold this picturesque guesthouse makes use of the old post office, police station and municipal buildings that have been restored to now offer accommodation. Take the old wagon road which starts at the guest house back into George for a truly unique experience. Any vehicle with ground clearance will manage comfortably.
Fantastic Experience, couldnt recommend more highly! The rooms were comfortable, warm and clean with fresh roses on the tables. The views are stunning and garden/tea garden lovely. The owners went out of their way to help in anyway they could. Our car broke down and we were towed back for an unexpected extra night stay. Even with our large family ( 5 small boys) they quickly arranged a room and even provided us with an evening meal with no notice! We are so thankful and impressed with their service and kindness.
Lovely place. Great food. Comfortable rooms. Quite and peaceful.
A wonderful little gem hiding away off the beaten track.
Perfect place, clean, beautiful, safe and wonderful personal care.
After driving through the Montagu pass, we stopped for scones and tea and was entertained by this picturesque setting. The service was efficient and friendly and the food was well presented.
Lovely peaceful country setting and view. Good coffee and cake, good service
Wonderful hospitality, friendly staff.Great food in the tea garden, especially the chicken pancakes and scones. Spacious clean room with winter sheets and heater, big bathroom. Beautiful, peaceful views.
Such a quaint little place. The owners were very friendly and welcoming. The views are also spectacular. Great weekend getaway
A few weeks ago on our way home on a long roadtrip my parents decided to have a rest stop and checking in at Over The Mountain Guest Farm was an excellent decision. After a long and busy trip the tranquility of the farm was more than welcome and the owners were very kind and helpful.The location itself was absolutely stunning and serene. Waking up and catching the scent of jasmine on the breeze just added to the peacefulness of the area. Some of the facilities on site were a swimming pool, a trampoline and a tea garden to relax in. The guest farm offered b&b styled rooms with food served from the kitchen and could be enjoyed in the tea garden as well as self-catering rooms. George was located about half an hour away, taking you through the beautiful and winding Outeniqua pass.All in all, we had a fantastic two nights and would definitely recommend Over The Mountain Guest Farm.
Real Farm atmosphere
Good place to stay with your family for 1 or 2 days, with beautiful view of mountains and pastures.
Great service and great pancakes
What a beautiful place and friendly people!
Beautifully peaceful, good service and yummy food
I love old buildings. This is a have-to-see. Best scones!
Tops. The best
Delicious food. Great service. Beautiful views. Fantastic hosts
Not accommodating to a simple request.
Stunning view! Very quiet and relaxing environment* Perfect for resting and taking a break*
Very quaint cozy cottage with very friendly owners who are eager to make the stay as good as possible. Excellent food and comfortable clean rooms.
Please do yourselves a favour and stay away from this Over the Mountain Guest Farm tea garden for we received very poor quality of food and drinks...my husband ordered plunger coffee but received coffee so weak we could actually see through it and it tasted horrible...I ordered rooibos tea but instead I received normal english tea! When we received our food the cinnamon and sugar pancakes were very salty and my husbands griddle cake were like a slamming cake. When we politely complained about the drinks at first they disputed our concern and asked us to rather leave and without making a scene were leaving in disbelief of what had just happened! Nevertheless we put R100 on the table and just left. We are very disappointed in the managers attitude towards us as well as the way he handled this complaint. How can this place be awarded a four star rating by treating its customers this way?
We had a great afternoon and enjoyed the lunch. The staff is well trained and helpful and the owners are very hands on. The place has an old farmstyle charm and the views from the garden are spectacular.
Fantastic quiet place. The old pass is worth the drive
Perfect for when you want to take a break from the city life...beautiful surroundings, bird life and quiet and peace.
Great service and hospitality
