Old Potters Inn

Quaint, clean, comfortable and very charming old Inn. Perfectly situated in the centre of the very beautiful and bucolic Greyton. We had dinner at the pub and it was delicious and had a wonderful atmosphere. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful, especially Edwina! Would definitely book again!

SHOCKING, DISAPPOINTING! we booked two rooms 3 months ago. When we arrived today 10 January 2023 they allowed us to check in and then came to us after 15 min to say we have to leave no kids are allowed on the property and that it is a new policy. We were then left in Greyton in season time to find new accommodation with our kids. I would not recommend booking with The old Potters Inn. They treated us with disrespect. I have been coming to Greyton for 10 years and have never experienced anything like this!!

New owners - turns out also new to the hospitality industry. After having checked-in, established that the Aircon was not working. It was a Western Cape midweek heatwave at the time. Further we had to rinse the dishes which were dusty. I spent the evening with a friend in the village while my husband remained in our room. After check-out we had a dip in the pool intending to have lunch at the Old Potter restaurant. The staff were friendly and accommodating. A short time into our dip, the owner (Mr) came through the common pool area and was clearly annoyed. He brusquely asked us if our car was in his parking space - which it was not - the car belonged to another guest - and further asked whether we had checked out. We said that we had, and were biding time (between 111:30-12.30) until we could have lunch at the brewery. There were no other people at the pool at the time. Not long after this interaction, the owner told my husband who was having a drink in the pub, that the pool was for guests only - in an abrupt manner (perhaps from a previous annoyance regarding his car). We left the area immediately and decided to have lunch at a different venue - we already had starters and drinks at Old Potters though, thinking we would stay for lunch. As a Tier 4 Google reviewer, I wrote a simple review on our experience. The result was that the owner embarked on a character assassination of myself and my husband; stating that we had had an altercation that had made other guests uncomfortable. This allegation is a complete fabrication or the owner (Mr) is confusing us with other guests. The whole encounter was beyond bizarre.
