Loadshedding Facilities

What is loadshedding? It refers to the temporary suspension of electricity provided by Eskom, South Africa's electricity provider, to reduce consumption and thereby the load on the national grid. To compensate, South African property owners are turning to solar power, inverters with backup batteries or in some cases generators to keep the power on, wherever feasible.

Verified reviewexcellent

We spent two wonderful days and nights at Elianthes Guesthaus. Our room and bathroom were freshly renovated and everything was tip top. The guesthouse is located on the local road in Swellendam and the traffic is audible, depending on the location of the room, but not disturbing. The manager of the guesthouse was very friendly and helpful. We would stay there again.

Verified reviewexcellent

We arrived and the hostess on duty (apologies for not remembering her name😱) was ready to meet us. We had a beautiful room, with the Aircon on, cooling our room (hot outside). Everything was pristine, comfortable and all that you could possibly require, was at hand. The surrounding property was just as pristine, with beautiful garden and pool. This was the 2nd stay, and we will be back!👏😁
