Prinspoort Klein Karoo Stay

Get a glimpse of life on a working Klein Karoo farm and discover the beauty of this unique region. Prinspoort Klein Karoo Stay offers a variety of self-catering accommodation in two picturesque mountain units and a spacious farmhouse, each with its own distinct character. Nestled in the foothills of the Swartberg Mountain on a farm, about 45km from Ladismith and just 25km from the famous Route 62, these luxury guest cottages will give you a taste of farm life in the magical setting of the Klein Karoo. Guests at Prinspoort’s self-catering accommodation have unlimited access to the fauna and flora of the Klein Karoo, and several hiking trails, some of which are still in progress, offer them an intimate glimpse of this unique region with its dry riverbeds, valleys, age-old rock formations and wonderful succulents. Here you can listen to the silence all day long and be mesmerised by the star-studded sky at night.

Area Info

The pretty town of Ladismith is unique in a number of senses, not least of which is its unique ‘Ladismith’ style of architecture that has evolved from the hotchpotch mixture of several styles including Victorian, Neo-gothic, Edwardian, Cape Dutch Revival, Regency, and Rural (that’s Karoo rural!).

Ladismith is essentially a prosperous farming community producing fruit (grapes, a third of South Africa’s apricots, and plums), milk, wine, flowers and mutton. The town has two cheese factories - Parmalat and Ladismith Cheese - and the Ladismith Wine Cellar is open for cellar tours and wine tasting during the week.
