About Wolwefontein Lodge

A spacious, four bedroom guesthouse on the farm Wolwefontein, situated 30km outside Colesberg on the N9 between Colesberg and Noupoort. It is a quiet, scenic stopover for those travelling toward Port Elizabeth and the Garden Route.

Wolwefontein is quite nicely situated so as to allow day trips of the surrounding areas. Graaff-Reinet is a lovely little town to explore with much history. It is only 160km away! The Owl House is about 100km away so you can be sure of a nice day trip.

ACCOMMODATION

Relax in the four large and spacious bedrooms, each having its own bathroom en suite or with a private bathroom to wash away the tension of your day. All rooms promise comfortable beds with crisp sheets for a restful night.

There are two bedrooms that accommodate families of four each, a bedroom for two and a cosy bedroom with a fireplace that sleeps three.

Please Note:
This is a non-smoking establishment and smoking is only allowed in the garden or away from the house. No smoking near open doors or windows is allowed.

Please drive slowly around the property as we have dogs, meerkats, horses and guests wandering around.

BREAKFAST & MEALS

Warm meals are served in the guesthouse dining room. Breakfast is a full English breakfast comprising of cereal, yoghurt, fruit when available, bacon and eggs. An additional cost for children's breakfast is required (rate on request).

FACILITIES

If there is ever time to spare, there is a TV in the lounge with SABC TV channels, E-TV and BOP. You can enjoy the braai facilities under the star covered sky or take a cool dip and swim in the reservoir near the stables.

The reservoir is refilled daily by the windmill nearby as it fills all the animals water troughs so the water is clean and very chilly! In the winter, it is very cold and you might be lucky to experience snow! So if you want to build a snowman, July is the time to come. This is the time when you snuggle up near the fire with a mug of Hot Chocolate and a good book.

There is undercover parking for your vehicle. Two cots are available for guests with babies or toddlers, free of charge.

Judy is a lovely host. The venue is so comfortable and peaceful, so nice to be on a farm, rather than in a town!
