The coastal town of Lambert’s Bay is sixty kilometers to the west of Clanwilliam, and the Namibian border is 470 km to the north. Overlooking an orange orchard, between the Olifants and Jan Dissels rivers, the air here is clean and clear, and the light has magical qualities. Saint du Barrys is more than a B&B or guest-house: it is a home with a reputation for comfort, personal attention, friendliness and helpfulness. The Swiss and Scottish backgrounds of the hosts, Wally and Joan, create an atmosphere of cheerfulness and generosity and the friendly dogs and cats are at hand to create a home from home for guests who miss their pets. The parrot, Ramius the Red October, is capable of amusing an audience for hours. AccommodationProtected by a huge 150-year-old wild fig tree, Saint du Barrys is under thatch.
