Old Mill Country Lodge & Restaurant

Out in Schoemanshoek on the edge of Oudtshoorn, this 4-star bed & breakfast sits minutes from the city center. You're close to Cango Ostrich Ranch, the Cango Caves and Buffelsdrift Game Lodge — a solid base for Karoo adventures.

Take a dip in the outdoor pool and lazy river or chill in the picnic and barbecue areas. There's a kids' playroom, an arcade/game room, a bar and a daily complimentary reception — plus a tour desk to book local outings and free self-parking.

A business center is available and complimentary wireless internet keeps you connected. Front-desk safe-deposit boxes, laundry and dry-cleaning services are also on hand.
