Our Guest house is situated on one of Prince Albert's four town farms. This is a working farm where guests and geese are free to roam. The guest house is situated in the centre of town, one street down from the main hub. We are in walking distance of restaurants/coffee shops/art gallery/antiques. Guests have full use of our large swimming pool and grassed area. Safe parking area for 5 cars/or motorbikes.

We welcome cycling groups and are happy to fill their empty tummies and do their laundry.

The dining room in the main house is for quests, and your meal is prepared on prior request. We try to use all local produce and cook your meal with passion. We love spoiling our guests and we will prepare any special meal you would prefer, for any special occasion or just to end your perfect day. Should you prefer a fully prepared braai at your cottage, we will prepare it and leave only the braaiing up to you. We can supply you with sundowner basket to wander along the gravel roads in the evening or take an adventurous drive up the Swartberg Pass just before the sun sets.

Our town farm produces roses and flowers for all occasions.

Peaches and grapes are in abundance and guests are welcome to pick in the season.

Jams are made in our main kitchen and are available for sale.

Pedicures/manicures/massages can be booked for you on request.

R275 - R330 per person per night

depending on the season

Longer stays subject to quote.
