Huddled in the heart of the Klein Karoo is this magical Tudor-style manor house. Delicately finding the equilibrium between nature, life and sustainability while remaining one of the most sophisticated travel lodges in the area. Situated on one of the uppermost hills in Oudtshoorn, the manor and surrounding grounds is adorned with art, offering breath-taking views and sunsets combined with a tantalising swimming pool and entertainment patio. Affordable yet stylish and comfortable; surrounded with a sense of well-balanced vitality. Our little piece of paradise. Unique self-catering cottages, spaciously luxurious rooms, an uncrowded dormitory and camping depending on your needs. We also house a well equipped kitchen with optional breakfast. All your questions with regards to local attractions will be answered knowledgeably, offering some vouchers and specials to sites and establishments in and around Oudtshoorn. We strive to make your stay comfortable, exciting and memorable.

Three of us shared a room after cycling from Wilderness to Oudtshoorn. The room was clean and comfortable and the shared facilities were great. It has amazing views and plenty of areas to relax and rejuvenate, including a large swimming pool. Ilze was the perfect host - helping us with laundry and recommending a food restaurant and taxi service. It is a great back packers and very good value for money.

A beautiful property with the basic amenities which you expect. You are able to buy your own food or meat and use the kitchen or the braai spots near the pool and in front of the hotel for your own use. The owners were nice and very accommodative to requests

Loved it from the moment I arrived, could just see myself living there forever. The view, quiet peace, view, old world charm, super bed, clean rooms, quirky artefacts and the feeling of total relaxation did it for me. Thank you Ilse for your super hospitality, and did I mention the fabulous pool patio where we spent most of our time... Now you know where to stay not spending a fortune next time you visit Oudtshoorn.

We were impressed with the way the staff assisted our group on short notice before we even got to the venue. Big shout out to Anthony and the way he helped us and his friendliness . The rooms were very nice , the calmness and tranquility will definitely lead to a second visit.

Lovely family room cottage with great en-suite bathroom. Fantastic setting in majestic old house with a magical garden of treasures, well landscaped. Great self-catering kitchen in main house with a basic but sufficient kitchen in cottage. Super swimming pool (also in winter). great westward views of Oudtshoorn, (and sunset) from verandah. A definitely highly recommended accommodation with a lovely host, would absolutely stay here again!
