Impangele Guest House is a highly recommended guest house with self catering option, providing accommodation in Swellendam for tourists visiting the Cape Overberg region.
Impangele Guesthouse lies near the base of the Langeberg mountain range, ideally placed for those who love hiking, rambling and exploration. It is also possible to walk to shops and restaurants, so guests can have the best of everything. It is very close to the golf course (two minutes walk), to the Faerie Sanctuary (five minutes walk) and to two amazing berry farms, where you can taste liqueurs, jams and other products (fifteen minutes walk)
The house is well equipped to cater for every traveller's needs, and has been adapted to provide maximum ease and comfort for any disabled visitors. It offers superb accommodation, furnished in tasteful contemporary African style, and boasts a peaceful indigenous garden, with mountain views.
The bedrooms are spacious and full of character. They all have TVs, well equipped hospitality trays, complimentary liqueurs from the local Berry Estate, bathrobes and slippers and all have en-suite facilities, with high quality complimentary toiletries.
Please see the individual room descriptions with photographs below, to assist you with your choice.
Breakfast is included in the more than reasonable price – and it is an amazing experience, with lots of variety – everything is locally sourced and freshly prepared. Local fruit, freshly squeezed oranges, newly ground coffee, choice of teas, along with pastries, muffins and home baked bread. For no extra cost, you can indulge in a stunning English breakfast – complete with fried bread and baked beans!
Surrounded by three national parks - Bontebok National Park, Marloth Mountain reserve, and De Hoop Nature Reserve, Swellendam is a place to spend much more than one night. In the picturesque historical town of Swellendam itself there is the Drostdy Museum and Old Gaol complex, and some excellent restaurants. Nearby there is quad biking, hot springs, horse riding, a fuffi slide, beautiful dams and scenic walks, the Tradouw Pass, and many superb wine farms. Impangele now has a farm style plunge pool available for you to cool down after your busy day(s).
There is plenty to see and do, and one of the best things about Swellendam, is there is virtually no crime and everybody is very relaxed, friendly and peaceful! If you let them know in advance, Beauty, Impangele’s housekeeper, will cook you a traditional Xhosa meal.
Your hosts, David and Amanda Shackley, will warmly welcome you to their beautiful home in Swellendam, the third oldest town in South Africa.

Warm, friendly welcome. A lovely clean, well equipped and spacious self catering cottage. We had breakfast overlooking a lovely garden and wished our stay was going to be longer! Very relaxing and would definitely recommend Impangele!
