Prince Albert’s prettiest little farmhouse in town

Now back under owner management

Re-opened on the first day of Spring – 1st September 2008!

 

Prince Albert’s prettiest little farmhouse, with the best view in town. A private retreat for romantics, artists and dreamers. The Olive House (1845) is tucked away in a cul-de-sac on the fringe of the village, overlooking a small private vineyard and fruit orchards with the majestic Swartberg as a backdrop. Waken to the sound of birdsong, and at night, simply inhale the stars.

 

The cottage sleeps two to four guests in ample, spacious accommodation – two bedrooms, two bathrooms,  a dining room and large living room with fireplace. The back verandah, draped in shady vines, has a braai area and seating for al fresco meals.  

The kitchen with its old Dover stove is adequately equipped for preparing light meals. All beds are made up with crisp white pure cotton linen and have electric blankets for winter. Furnishings are fresh and simple, with some lovely old country pieces, reflecting the true spirit of the Karoo.
