Have a memorable stay in the historical Royal Hotel in Steytlerville. Whether you are an adventurer, a historian or a romanticist, you have entered the ideal accommodation site! 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 neighbouring farm, has an "open-sky" spot in the veld where you can have a braai (barbecue) and a campfire, watching the most beautiful sunsets over the Baviaanskloof Mountains.

Bring your children to experience the farm during the lambing season. Activities like feeding the “hanslam”, horse riding and much more! Hikers, come and enjoy a day's hike with beautiful views.

Steytlerville is a gem of the Karoo, about two hours from Port Elizabeth and two and a half hours from George. It is on the way to Oudtshoorn and is situated between the Baviaanskloof and Addo Elephant Park. Steyterville nights invite you to the brightest stars that you can imagine and you can watch them from a telescope on a neighbouring farm. Talk to your friends about the donkey cart 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.
Should you have a group to entertain, contact us to create a customized program. Whether it is for a family reunion, hiking, birthday party, hunting, biking or family getaway, we will make sure you have a weekend full of fun which you will never forget!
