Our B&B recommended the restaurant and made a reservation for us – an absolutely wondeful experience! The restaurant has an excellent wine list with multiple options from lesser known wine farms. We enjoyed the french onion soup and chicken livers for starters, the beef fillet for main course and chocolate mousse for dessert. The bread on the table was delicious!... More

It had been over two years since I last stayed at, and reviewed on Tripadvisor, de Oude Herberg in Tulbagh, and if it is possible, this stay was even nicer. I was staying this time with my friend, and also was there to work on my dissertation, like the last time. The "room" was actually two rooms, with a door... More

Nice restaurant situated in an historic street with a shaded outdoor eating area, good food, good wine and excellent service. An excellent finale to another great trip to RSA. The singing chef was a surprise!!!

Great location for an overnight stop. We had an excellent stay for one night. We enjoyed a glass of local wine on the stoop in the evening sun. Then wandered off to a local restaurant for a bite to eat. The complementary glass of port was a nice surprise as was the opportunity to discuss the magnificent art in the... More

This is the third time that I have taken a break for a couple of days to De Oude Herberg Guesthouse in the historic Church Street in Tulbagh, but the first under the new ownership of Jan du Toit and his wife. The deco is fabulously old world, with antiques liberally and tastefully scattered around, and with leatherbound books filling... More

if you are looking a for a few days in a small town this could be the place..it's prime has long gone and some items need repair as the place is for sale..but the rooms are nice ..and if you believe in supporting single ownership this is an ok place for a few days.

The name means ‘The Old Inn’, which is well chosen because everything in this B&B is old and creaky. The room - we stayed in the ‘Montpellier’ at the front of the Cape Dutch-style house - was so so. And the shower was outright horrible with the plastic shower curtain clinging unhygienically to our bodies. However, the breakfast was excellent.... More

This is a comfortable guesthouse with good rooms (esp. "Twee Jonge Gezellen") and a pleasant courtyard and pool. We enjoyed our second visit. Regrettably the restaurant onsite (tho separately run) has now closed, and indeed the guesthouse itself is now up for sale, so I am not sure what the future holds. Meantime, it is an excellent place to stay,... More
