"A royal treatment in the Karoo"
Have a memorable stay in the historical Royal Hotel in
Steytlerville. Whether
you are an adventurer, a historian or a romanticist, you will have a fabulous
time at our establishment!
The Royal Hotel dating from 1897 has a tranquil atmosphere with typical
old-fashioned rooms. Watching the "activities and people" from the street facing
verandah, with an ice cold drink, is a lasting experience.
Vaalheuwel, our neighboring farm has an open-sky Boma, where you can have a
braai (barbeque) and a campfire, watching the most beautiful sunsets over the
Baviaans Mountains. Come and enjoy our comfortable camping facilities with a
wonderful view. Bring your children to experience the farm during the lamb
season. Activities like feeding the "hanslam", ostrich farming, horse riding and
much more! Hikers, come and enjoy a day hike with beautiful views.
Steytlerville is a gem in the Karoo, about two hours from Port Elizabeth and two
and a half hours from
George. It is on the way to Outshoorn and is situated
between the Baviaanskloof and Addo Elephant Park.
Steyterville nights invites you to the brightest stars that you can imagine and
you can watch that from a telescope at a neighboring farm. Talk to your friends
about the donkey car ride through town or visit one of the biggest Gregorian
style Dutch Reformed churches in the Southern Hemisphere. Comprehend where the
poet A.G. Visser got his inspiration from and do not miss a show over dinner!
Have a picnic at Draaikrans (rotated rocks) or just come and relax in the quiet
Karoo.

never forget!
