There’s a renewed energy in the gardens as everything begins to bloom, the fountains keep tinkling and the days feel a little lighter.

Spring has a way of making everything feel fresh again, and we’re loving every bit of it at Schoone Oordt.

Come and enjoy a little of the season with us.

Our wonderful team is at the heart of what we do. Warm, friendly and genuinely passionate about making every stay feel special.

Our approach is simple: unpretentious, unaffected luxury, thoughtful details, quality and plenty of care. From the moment you arrive, we want you to feel less like a guest and more as though you’re visiting old friends.

That’s the kind of hospitality we love to share.

There’s something rather special about staying at a place that feels like a home, only with a little more room to breathe.

Schoone Oordt is a family-run property with 11 luxury bedrooms set around lush gardens and tinkling fountains, away from the Manor House. Add our light-filled Conservatory, sparkling saltwater pool and a genuine love for people, family, good food, wine and the environment, and you have a very special place to stay in Swellendam.

We look forward to welcoming you.

Complimentary afternoon tea and scones are served on check-in from 2pm to 5pm on our front verandah, overlooking the garden and tinkling fountains.

Arrive in time to settle in, enjoy a cup of tea and a freshly baked scone while taking in the beautiful surroundings.

It’s a little Schoone Oordt tradition we think is rather special.

Our breakfast is an experience best enjoyed at a leisurely pace.

A three-course, some say four-course, gourmet affair, our breakfasts have developed quite a reputation over the years. Take your time, enjoy something delicious and let the morning unfold without rushing.

At Schoone Oordt, breakfast is something to look forward to.
