The Guest House is tastefully furnished with period furniture augmented by a large collection of Africana which will fascinate the discerning visitor, providing innumerable insights into the South African way of life in times long gone.
Guests find our facilities the perfect place to gather and relax before or after dinner in front of the cheerful log fire until it is time to turn in for a well-earned night’s rest alternatively meet new friends in our cosy bar.
A la Carte Restaurant
Appetising meals are served to both residents and casual visitors in the dining room, with its antique furniture and local artifacts. A generous, not-to-be-missed, full English breakfast is standard and the wise traveller allows for this in planning his onward journey.
For lunch and dinner the restaurant serves à la carte meals from a menu where dishes typical of the region such as Karoo lamb and ostrich are firm favourites with our guests. Traditional South African dishes such as boboti, tripe and trotters, oxtail on rice and pumpkin cakes are also very popular.
Guest Lounge & Historic Bar
The Guest Lounge is a popular gathering place before or after meals for guets to socialise. During the winter nights the Victorian fireplace adds to the cosy atmosphere. The Historic Bar contains a vast collection of memorabilia of South Africa’s past offering guests ample topics for conversation about the “old days”.
