"Adele and team catered for my Dad’s 90th which he celebrated in frailcare. The effort and detail they put in was amazing and they did it all with minimum comms and exactly as requested-AND so much MORE. The food looked exquisite and tasted absolutely YUMMY. They thought of every aspect and they blew me away with what they did for us and how everything was immaculate and incredibly tasty and unique"

"Honestly.... Amazing does not seem to encapsulate our stay at the Ou Pastorie. We arrived a bit late but were greeted warmly by the night watchman. I think the sound of the frog's harmonious singing in the background should have given us the ambiance. The accommodation was more than elegant, with I have to say a really comfortable and huge bed. The rooms are very spacious and nicely decorated. Garden's are well maintained. The main house witch serves as the restaurant and kitchen gives one that historic feeling and was immaculate. I would really recommend this place again for a breakaway. I found the staff really friendly and helpful from service to general interaction."

"Was passing by and decided to take a quick look. What a little gem, such a peaceful place, it felt like I took a trip back in time. Old pastor house turned into a restaurant, with seating inside with lovely antique chairs and fixtures, or outside in the shady garden, artwork on display all around. I can imagine having a romantic daytime wedding here, and there is a church right nextdoor. Will try the food next time, but overall impression was lovely and nostalgic."
