Description

Rooderandt Hillside Lodge is situated in the picturesque Schoemanshoek Valley near Oudtshoorn and is surrounded by the enchanting Swartberg Mountain Range. Rooderandt’s raised location offers a spectacular view across the valley and is abundant with indigenous fauna, flora and bird life on its 3.5 hectares of unspoilt land. It is definitely unique with its mixture of nature, culture, 19th century Old World charm and true Klein Karoo hospitality.

The house is a trove of African culture and is stylishly decorated with attention to detail, and furnished throughout with genuine antiques, complimenting a true South African atmosphere. Here décor is character, stretching far back into history with its popular beam reed ceilings, an original 1897 Bolinder cast iron stove and the manor's imposing front door, originally from a 17th century hunting lodge of Simon van der Stel.

The four private cottages combine the old and the new. Each one is individually decorated with genuine antique furniture, 19th century stoves and fireplaces combined with the convenience of air-conditioning. Each cottage is equipped with a spacious private bathroom and has a patio offering unsurpassed views across the valley. The Honeymoon Suite is perfect for a romantic getaway as it is stylish, spacious, luxurious, warm and comfortable. It has a private entrance, plunge pool and private garden.

Another major advantage of staying at Rooderandt Hillside Lodge is the fact that it is situated in the heartland of the area’s attractions, making it an ideal location from which to explore the world-famous Cango Caves, ostrich show farms, wildlife farms and a vast number of other tourist attractions.

What an amazing place
Robyn Taylor, Australia
23 March 2012
We had the pleasure of staying at Rooderandt on our holiday in South Africa. Marojéan did so much to make our stay so enjoyable. Room was perfect, and the breakfast was out of this world. I have already recommended this lodge to all my family who are looking to travel thorugh the Cape. Thank you.
Very unique
