Neighbourhood information

GRAAFF-REINET IS BEST KNOWN for it’s restored Cape Dutch buildings and Cape Malay flat roof houses and its serene Karoo tranquility. THE BEST TIME OF THE YEAR TO VISIT is in spring and early summer with the gardens covered with flowering bougainvillia and the streets lined with blooming jacarandas. Autumn days are also so special with its almost perfect weather – never too cold or too hot. WHEN THE WEATHER IS GOOD, get a picnic basket and take a ride along the Mountain Drive on the western side of the town and find a place where you can enjoy your breakfast at leisure, overlooking the town of Graaff-Reinet. FOR LUNCH, WE SUGGEST Polka Restaurant with its happy atmosphere and special ambience - and the nicest thin based pizzas in town, not to talk about the rest of the light dishes on the menu. The coffee at Our Yard is reckoned as the best in town. At Blue Magnolia, the local nursery, you can have unbeatable Lemon Meringue and other sweet treats, as well as breakfast and light lunches. OUR FAVOURITE RESTAURANT IS …….impossible to choose!!! We have such a variety of very good restaurants that it is difficult to choose, so we rotate…. Karoo Lamb Chops, Neck, or Shank
