Please see individual room descriptions below, to assistyou with your choice.

We offer guests the option of a fully stocked fridge for breakfast, so you can enjoy it in the privacy of your own room or patio, at a time convenient for yourself and your family. Don't feel like going out for lunch? Have a picnic in the garden.

At the end of the day you can relax and unwind in a restful environment away from the hustle and bustle, yet close enough to explore Swellendam's attractions. A Hilltop Country Retreat treats you to high standards of hospitality throughout, but it's also a great base for trips and excursions.
