Cango Retreat is truly a 'hidden gem' in more ways than one! Besides it location close to so may wonderful places to visit, it is situated on a river with beautiful trees, lawn and most friendly animals. The accommodation units are each unique, very well furnished and with soothing sound of river flowing causing a calming experience. The owners, Inge and Mariska, are very friendly and always ready to assist when needed. The venue in its truest sense is a real 'retreat'. Since our first visit in 2021, Cango Retreat has become an annual visiting place and much talked about when returning home. It is 'home' away from home and with each visit we experienced something new. Well done to the owners for making each visit an memorable one!

I would highly recommend Ou Tol Cango Retreat, the reception and service from Inge is exceptional. The tranquility, neatness of the entire place is a rare find these days. Loved the animals and absolute peace that the Cango Retreat offers, a place where one can find your inner soul again. Inge is a star on her own, always helpful and available to assist wherever she can. We will certainly return soon !

This was our third trip this year to Cango Retreat and it was again a wonderful experience. The facilities are very neat and clean, the staff and super friendly and there is a lot of care given to the facility. The extra bonus are the animals that roam the place. They make the stay extra special as they are friendly and interact brilliantly with kids. Close to Cango Caves and a short drive to Oudtshoorn city centre, this is a well located spot that has easy access to all the main areas in and around the Oudtshoorn area. We almost always book a return trip as soon as we leave!

A magical place by the river to just relax and unwind. Lovely bottle of champagne provided, jacuzzi on the deck overlooking the river, what more can you ask for. Hammock provided to enjoy the stars at night. Wonderful hosts and great having all the animals come to visit. Will definitely be back.

We enjoyed our honeymoon at Cango Retreat. It was so beautiful adding more memorable memories to our journey as newly married couple. Making a booking was so easy we did it over what's app. We got a quick response from the owner. On arrival we were guided to our accommodation. We had a complimentary bottle of champagne on ice waiting for us and the jacuzzi was filled. We did take the braai and breakfast pack and it was beautifully prepared. Our breakfast was brought to us after they confirmed what time will be appropriate. We will be going back again.

We loved staying at Cango Retreat, it was beautiful and cozy, the river flowing, Inge extremely helpful, and the Oudtshoorn Climbing Crag is only a 10 min drive away. The Braai packs are absolutely outstanding ;-)

From the moment we arrived we were absolutely amazed at the beauty, quietness and pure bliss. The free roaming animals who all greeted us from dogs to Meerkats. Our kids loved every minute of it. Will definitely be seen us again

Our family had a wonderful time at the wonderful destination. The animals (dogs of all shapes and sizes including the meerkat-dog) and the calming sound of the river made for a lovely relaxing long weekend. This is a place you could easily call a home away from home. Amenities are perfect and the jacuzzi was lovely. We are in love with the meerkat and the little black dog. Ilse and Marika are very attentive. Thank you again for a memorable time! (Mattresses are very uncomfortable)

The most relaxing venue ever. If you are a nature and animal lover then this place is for you. I will not even look at another place to stay in the Oudtshoorn area. The hosts are laid back, helpful and friendly.
