Accommodation in Graaff-Reinet - Camdeboo Manor, Graaff-Reinet, Eastern Cape

Camdeboo Manor Guesthouse, Bed and Breakfast Accommodation  Graaff-Reinet, Eastern Cape, South Africa

It is not often that one gets the opportunity to luxuriate in the tranquility of the Karoo countryside knowing that the town centre of Graaff-Reinet is a brief 5 minute drive away.
Stephen & Liesl created Camdeboo Manor so that you could experience this calmness and serenity to its fullest. From the moment you drive through the gates of this small farm a sense of well-being washes over you and the warm welcome makes you feel as if you belong.

Accommodation & Facilities 
Liesl understands what hospitality means, having spent 3 years in the hotel industry in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. It was here that she and Stephen collected the unique, and unusual, furniture and décor items that form the central motif for both suites. Carved out of African mahogany, the exotic 4 poster king size beds give the rooms the appearance of a Sultan's private quarters.

They aim to provide their guests with comfortable accommodation as well as a sense of being whisked away to an exotic location where luxury and comfort are the norm.

Cultural & Historical interest    
The town of Graaff-Reinet was established in 1786, and named after the Governor of that time - 'van der Graaf' and his wife -'Reinet'. It was only the fourth district in the Cape to receive a seat of local government or a 'Drostdy'. Known to be a barren and untamed area, it became the outpost of white civilization for trading by the middle of the last century.

The town lies in the horse-shoe bend of the Sundays River and offers more proclaimed national monuments than any other South African town. Graaff-Reinet is surrounded by the Camdeboo National Park, where another wonder of nature, the Valley of Desolation, towers majestically above all.
