Description

Moolmanshof Main House and Self-Catering Accommodation is said to be the oldest house still standing in Swellendam and was built in 1798. It is a National Heritage Building and a classic example of an H-shaped Cape Dutch-style farmhouse. It is situated on the last remaining hectare of the old farm.

The comfortable guest house offers accommodation in 3 bedrooms located in the Manor House. All the rooms have en-suite bathrooms, and guests can make use of the dining room with its old yellow wood stable door with cast iron hinges. The old stables have been converted into 3 self-catering units.

Guests can stroll around the park-like gardens, relax under the oak trees, or cool off in the swimming pool. Pets are welcome in units 1, 2 and 3 by prior arrangement.

Swellendam has many historic buildings that serve as a reminder of its exciting past. Nature lovers will enjoy the plentiful nature reserves around Swellendam, including the Marloth Nature Reserve, Sambona Wildlife Reserve, Grootvadersbosch Nature Reserve, and Bontebok National Park. Swellendam is notably the largest youngberry growing region in the world, including farms such as Wildebraam Liqueur Farm set back from Voortrek Street, Swellendam’s main road, previously “ Die Ou Kaapse Wapad”, the Berry Farm, where one can enjoy tastings, cellar tours, and berry picking.
