★★★★★ We had an awesome time at Selkirk house during July 2014. Steyn, the host, was excellent and all his recommendations on places to visit could not have been more perfect. Rooms were spacious, very modern and had everything we could wish for. There'd be no hesitation in booking at the Selkirk House again.

★★★★★ We were fortunate to stay at Selkirk over the Easter Weekend and enjoyed it thoroughly. Ina made us scones and muffins at special request. It was raining all weekend, and the gas for the fireplace had not arrived, so unfortunately we felt the cold.
