 ABOUT

De Opstal Country Lodge is situated in the picturesque Schoemanshoek Valley, just 12 km outside Oudtshoorn.

The typical Klein Karoo style farm buildings, including old stables, wagon house, farmhouse, share cropper’s cottage, old barn and a bungalow, have been restored to revive the old world ambience. For generations the Schoeman family farmed this fertile valley and some of the beautiful farm buildings date back to as early as 1830. Albertus and Matilda treat their guests to wholesome country food and hospitality reminiscent of the early 1800's. The subtle and thoughtful addition of modern conveniences and amenities have ensured the unique atmosphere is preserved.

The spacious complex allows guests to enjoy privacy and tranquillity. Our chef, Lenie, combines traditional Cape cookery with typical Klein Karoo dishes to create an authentic dining experience. Enjoy a pre-dinner drink in the bar area or outside while looking at a beautiful Karoo sunset. The romance of the Karoo and the cosy village atmosphere, along with the quaint chapel and colourful gardens, make De Opstal Country Lodge the perfect venue for weddings and group functions.
