Friendly Staff of Old Mill
We are situated between the lovely Swartbergmountain range. Truly only a few places in this beautiful region. We are a Working Ostrich Farm and have popular large gardens, with activities for young and old:Bass fishing, Mini Zipline, Bunny & Pony Park as well as hiking trails. We offer more than the normal B&B. We have 2 restaurants. One only serve breakfast, and our a la carte restaurant lunch and dinner. Restaurant with view of river & mountains, truly no restaurant in Oudtshoorn with this spectacular setting. We serve venison of many kinds and most popular a range of Ostrich dishes.
All of our staff walk the extra mile to make each and every guest feel welcome.
We are on the perfect spot. Halfway between Oudtshoorn and the world famous Cango Caves, with Cango Ostrich Show Farm basically next to us! We are in the centre of most activities & attractions.
