My wife and I stayed at De Opstal for one night as part of our honeymoon tour of South Africa, and we loved the place. We arrived in the evening after a 5 hour drive from Cape Town and were shown to an amazing converted farm building. The room was huge with a large open fire, a King size bed,... more

Travelling along the start of Route 62, we stayed at the De Opstal for 2 nights. On arriving we wondered whether we had the right place as the setting is so perfect and high quality. When being shown our rooms or should I say 'garden lodge', we were amazed at the size and decor of the lodge. Huge double bed,... more

Lovely!!!!

Stayed here for one night on the way home from our safari and we were just blown away. The staff greeted us as we pulled into the driveway. We were immediately shown to our room (which was perfect). The cottages are lovely and the grounds are just beautiful. The staff could not have been nicer! It was so peaceful and... more

We stayed at De Opstal for two nights, 18 and 19 November 2008. What a wonderful place, so peaceful and the setting is amazing. Beautiful rooms, lovely gardens and the furnishings in the rooms are lovely. We arrived late and felt right at home - we did not even complete the normal check in processes, we were just shown to... more

Arrived at this place from the dire Die Oeol Mill up the road - don't stay there unless you have a penchant for inbred boers and ghastly formica rooms. Not only was De Opstal cheaper, but the room was like something out of a boutique hotel, huge, gorgeously furnished, with corner bath, real fire and fantastic verandah from which to... more

Have just returned from 2 wonderful weeks in South Africa - our first visit but not our last! We stayed 2 nights at De Opstal, arriving late in the afternoon after a long drive. Staff were most welcoming and our excellent room and the beautiful gardens ensured a restful and relaxing stay. Being located outside Outshoorn we opted to eat... more

This B&B is located 10km outside of Oudtshoorn but this didn't matter as we stayed one night only. We didn't eat in the restaurant as we wanted to go into town but breakfast was a bit basic. It was clean and tidy and satisfied us for the night we were there. Best thing about the stay was the Ostrich Farm... more

Stunning!

This is a great place to stay .. the room was large and the bathroom devine! I almost wish we'd been there in winter so we could have lit the fire and holed up!! But it was summer and it was lovely to sit on the porch and just drink it all in!! the downside for me was the restaurant,... more

We stayed for 2 nights here 19/20 December 2007. The weather was very hot and it was lovely to arrive early one afternoon and be greeted by a very efficient Monique who looked after us and showed us to our rooms. We are a family of four with 2 sons aged 17 & 14 and so we had two double... more

Upon arriving from Capetown to Oudtshoorn where it was much hotter, we were delighted to arrive at De Opstal where a warm welcome from Monique made us right at home. Our 2 rooms were out of this world with fresh flowers and ice drinks in our own personal fridge on our private porch. Bar drinks were served direct to your... more
