Swartberg Country Manor

The graceful Swartberg Country Manor is located at the foot of the Swartberg Mountain range, 40 minutes drive to the north of Oudstshoorn.  Its 25 stylish rooms, which harmoniously combine classic style and modern touches, are split between the main house, historical house (dating back to 1864) and independent ‘Karoo style’ cottages.  All rooms have tea and coffee making facilities and ceiling fans.  The Patat restaurant uses fresh local ingredients in its imaginative dishes, and has an excellent list of hand-picked South African wines. There’s an outdoor pool and fig orchard, and breathtaking panoramic views can be enjoyed from the open lounge and verandas.
