Dennehof Guest House is a 4 star graded B&B with self catering option, offering Prince Albert accommodation for tourists and visitors of the Karoo.
Experience the grandeur of South Africa's unexplored spaces from Prince Albert's oldest homestead, a serene and comfortable base at the foot of the Swartberg Pass. Well on its way to a double century, Dennehof Karoo Guest House is the oldest surviving building in Prince Albert.
Dennehof consists of several buildings that once constituted the original farmstead. Each room is uniquely designed and decorated to provide you with luxury, whilst experiencing the grandeur of Karoo-living. Each of our rooms has their own character and is infused with great personality.
The main house of the original farmstead houses four of our guest rooms which are all en suite, whilst the other rooms are situated towards the back of the property. This is were we have our two Suites, both with private patios.
See the individual room descriptions and photos of each unit below, to assist with you decision.
The converted old farm reservoir now serves as the swimming pool and overlooks the olive grove and majestic Swartberg mountains. Next to the pool is our sauna, ideal for use all year round, but especially in cooler winter months. Expansive gardens provide a lovely oasis for guests to stroll through, or sit and enjoy nature's beauty from one of our many vantage points.
In the mornings, breakfast is served on the deck that overlooks the old Kweekvallei where Gay's Guernsey cows and Angora goats are grazing in the lush green fields. The landscaped garden creates a soft, serene backdrop where songbirds meet and the sound of the lei water runs beneath the deck.
As for dinner, we are able to make reservations at local restaurants that offer superb Karoo cuisine and only by special arrangements can dinners be arranged for at the Guest House.
We offer guests an array of special services, from laundry to bike hire or one-on-one advice from our very own SA accredited tour guide. We pride ourselves in our customer service so if you have any queries, or if there is anything we can do to make your stay with us more pleasurable, please do not hesitate to ask us and we shall do our very best to satisfy your request.

We so enjoyed our too short stay! Everything was immaculate and the staff very attentive and helpful. Breakfast in the conservatory was especially enjoyable and beautifully presented and served. Our stay was too short and we will definitely be back!
