The Four Forester's Cottages - Four typical mid-Victorian
cottages - Rose, Cherry, Fern and Forget Me Not. De Oude Pastorie is a simple
Karoo Pastorie (pastor's home) with its deep stoep and sash windows and the
Anniston , which is a charming Victorian forester's cottages, in a quaint
fisherman's cottage.
A Honeymoon Rooms for (newly-weds) or couples wanting a romantic getaway in
a magical forest. Rustic log homes on the other side of the main building provide
a different experience with the emphasis on the woodcutting legacy of the Tsitsikamma.
The hotel stands out on the Garden Route thanks to an abundance of old world charm, character and tradition.
All guests are welcome to savour the comfort and atmosphere of the main building at Tsitsikamma Village Inn, which traces its roots back to 1845. In the building you’ll find a spacious dining room, incorporating the De Oude Martha Restaurant, and the Hunter’s Inn Pub and Guest Lounge.
On the 6th October 1997, the restaurant at the hotel was renamed “De Oude Martha”, in recognition of a chef that dedicated 32 years of her life to the hotel. Matha was extremely proud when the New York Times (August 2001), named De Oude Martha as the best hotel in the Tsitsikamma area. Martha retired in 2004 and left her legacy and recipes at the Inn.
At Tsitsikamma Village Inn, the Hunter’s Inn Pub (1850) was originally a hunting box. Lt. Duthie, son in law of George Rex, hunted wild boar and small buck in the area. Therefore it came as no surprise when the pub featured in a book by Chris Marais and Pat Hopkins, named “101 beloved Bars of Southern Africa”.
The comfortable, old-world atmosphere of the lounge is enhanced by the various musical collectables that decorate the room. Cafe Bacchus In the relaxed atmosphere of the Inn we have created a Victorian Tea Garden, Café Bacchus, where visitors can enjoy food and drinks at a leisurely pace. Here people can escape from the rat race, stress and mechanical mindedness of our times.
