OVER THE MOUNTAIN GUEST FARM
Bed & Breakfast / Guest Farm Accommodation
in Herold, Karoo, Western Cape, South Africa
Over the Mountain Guest Farm is situated in the hamlet of
Oudtshoorn.
We offer comfortable accommodation in five historic buildings namely the "Police Station", "Post Office", "School", "House of Sin" and "Welsch House". These buildings date back to 1860 and once formed the heart of the bustling town of
Herold. These historic buildings have been renovated into a delightful array of accommodation, pub and dining area.
"Post Office"
These 4 double en-suite bedrooms with their own private entrances have a colonial feel to them with their oregon pine floors, yellow wood beams and wooden shutters.
"Welsch House 1 & 2"
These 2 double en-suite bedrooms with their own private entrances and vine covered verandas offer scenic views over the valley. With their reed ceilings and wooden floors these rooms are quiet delightful.
"House of Sin"
The "House of Sin" built during the construction of the
Montagu Pass, offers self catering accommodation sleeping 5 people. This building with its wooden floors and thick walls really takes one back in time.
"Welsch House"
The "Welsch House 3" also offers self catering accommodation sleeping 4 people. With its oregon pine floors, reed ceiling and stone walls this is the perfect place for a family stay.
