Uwe and Carel
Boutique Hotel set in magnificent gardens, where Germany meets South Africa in style and elegance. Comfortable, spacious and private, in the beautiful town of Barrydale. Each room is luxuriously decorated by interior decorator, Uwe, borrowing themes from different countries.
We, Uwe and Carel, have a passion for hospitality, making our guests feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible in Sorgvry House of Guests, here in Barrydale. The great attention to detail happens behind the scenes.
Barrydale offers various wellness facilities such as Warmwaterberg Hot Springs, massages at Sorgvry, yoga, Pilates, hiking, cycling and beautiful drives in the surrounding area. For example the wine tour through Bonivale to Robertson - apart from the great wine, the roadside is soooo worth watching - lined by beautiful lush flowers, trees, orchards, and vineyards...breathtakingly beautiful. I think if ever anyone imagined the Garden Route, this would be it. (As commented from our guests!)
