Dennehof Karoo Guest House
Dennehof Karoo Guesthouse consists of several buildings that once constituted the original farmstead. Each room is uniquely designed and decorated to provide you with luxury, whilst experiencing the grandeur of Great Karoo-living. Each of our rooms has their own character and is infused with great personality. The main house of the original farmstead houses four of our guest rooms which are all en suite, whilst the other rooms are situated towards the back of the property. This is were we have our two Suites, both with private patios. The converted old farm reservoir now serves as the swimming pool and overlooks the olive grove and majestic Swartberg mountains. Next to the pool is our sauna, ideal for use all year round, but especially in cooler winter months. Expansive gardens provide a lovely oasis for guests to stroll through, or sit and enjoy nature's beauty from one of our many vantage points.
Area Info
Dennehof Karoo Guesthouse is situated at the foot of the Swartberg Mountains; explore the famous Swartberg Pass and lost valley of Gamkaskloof - Die Hel for a great day out.
Meiringspoort and the waterfall is also a short drive away, and the Cango Caves and ostrich farms in the Oudtshoorn vicinity are a popular attraction.
Prince Albert is host to a fantastic selection of olive oil producers, as well as the beautiful Weltevrede Fig Farm. Tannie Marie's deli at Gay's Guernsey Dairy is the perfect spot to stock up on cheeses, yoghurt, and other local fresh produce.
We also have some stunning creatives and artists in town, most have some work hanging at the Gallery.
Experience a historical walking tour with Prince Albert’s Story Weaver, Ailsa Tudhope, or a more light-hearted yet informative ghost walk to learn more about who still lurks behind old town walls.
Learn more about the geology, botany, natural and cultural history of the southern Karoo desert with Sue Milton-Dean’s biodiversity walk in the spectacular Wolwekraal Nature Reserve.
For the outdoor enthusiast we have breathtaking hiking and cycling routes, and an early morning or late afternoon walk or trail-run up Gordon’s Koppie offers hikers spectacular aerial views of Prince Albert and surrounds.
