Sorgvry - House of Guests, hotel in Barrydale

Featuring free Wi-Fi, Sorgvry - House of Guests offers accommodations in Barrydale, midway between Cape Town and the Garden Route, and 29 mi from Swellendam.

Uwe and Carol have lovingly cultivated the amazing museum of a house, as well as gorgeous gardens. You could sit on the veranda all day. A short walk to first class restaurant (Mez) and friendly staffed shops. The Africa room has a great private terrace and direct access to two porches. We loved the magpies - and wished the Magpie art gallery had been open when we were there.

    A beautiful town with so much to explore.

    A beautiful town with so much to explore. For tourists s longer stay is advisable to see everything this lovely place has to offer. But it also offers perfect overnight stops when passing through. We recommend Barrydale Karoo Lodge. With an in-house pub and restaurant, you need nothing more.

    Barrydale is a small town with a lot of potential.

    Barrydale is a small town with a lot of potential. Wonderful artistic shops and drop in eateries. Amazing 2nd hand bookshop - new books also available - I couldn't leave!! Close to Warmwaterberg - a must for a visit, not far from Swellendam and Witsand - beautiful beach. Lovely walks in the hills around the village.

    It is lovely, safe and quiet.

    It is lovely, safe and quiet. Most of the restaurants close at 5pm, so don't expect to eat out at a nice restaurant. Fortunately the guest house we were staying at was spacious and comfortable, and so we made a plan to buy our own food and eat in. But seriously, going out to eat should be an option.

    Great little town when you turn off the main road and explore a little. Wonderful, friendly people in all the places we visited. Must visit the Karoo Art Hotel for a great meal, incredible staff and festive atmosphere.

    One of the highlights was the sense of peace and tranquillity we felt in this authentic ‘dorp’. The solitude of the town provided a serene backdrop, making our stay truly magical. Exploring the town and its surroundings was a delightful adventure. Quaint local shops, friendly faces, and the simplicity of life in the Karoo made our stay truly authentic. My list of mandatory places to visit would be Diesel and Crème for their out-of-this-world milkshakes, The House of Books (a paradise for any bibliophile), The Karoo Art Hotel for coffee or a gin and the gorgeous décor and coffee shop ‘Die Langhuis’ This gem on the border of the Karoo has the potential to become an even more coveted destination for those seeking a peaceful retreat in this unique South African landscape. In summary, our time in this small town was a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of big city life.

    Outfall clean, spacious, and with everything you could need - thoughtfully set out with information about Barrydale and the surrounding area, a lovely terrace for morning tea/evening wine, a sunny garden with braii, and the actual birdsong and peace and quiet amidst the mountains was fantastic. The bed was so big and incredibly comfy, shower fab and also a wood burning fire for chilly nights. Can’t recommend it more for a peaceful stay.

    I can’t say enough good things about this gem of a place. The decor, attention to detail, and general vibe of the Karoo Moon House was incredible. It was a real shame we couldn’t stay longer - it would have been a perfect long weekend. We also really appreciated the little extras that were provided in the house. We would come back to Barrydale just to stay here!

    The friendliness of the hostess was lovely. The scenery was outstanding. What was really wonderful was the restaurant and the pleasure of having breakfast which was amazing by the way, on a wood deck overlooking a dam teeming with bird life and watching weaver birds building their nests. The evening braai was in a great peaceful area just outside the cottage.

    The Karoo Art 🖼️ Hotel just has to be the epicentre of the Karoo magnetic force field of great karma and to swim in a mountain stream that has passed through a million year old natural filtration process. The breakfast was excellent 👌🏻 & I stayed there as it is dog friendly plus they hosted a special musical event!

    Such a charming cottage. It’s small - only suitable for a couple or close friends who are happy to share a bed (but from memory they do say this) but TOTALLY charming. Beautiful decor and a lovely swimming pool (that you share with the hosts) and a perfect base to explore Barrydale.

    Beautifully refurbished Lodge in a great location just outside Barrydale. Our room was lovely, really private, quiet and very comfortable. The owner, Eugene, and the staff were great, and facilitated a meal for us on our second night when everywhere else was closed. Thank you all.

    Such a fun, eclectic spot. Full of antiques. We loved it. Conveniently located beside the Diesel and Crème Restaurant, open for Breakfast and Lunch. Their Chia Latte was the best we have ever had. They recommended the Mez Karoo Kitchen for dinner…it was excellent as well.
