Prince
Albert has a multitude of delights to entertain you and they are all
within walking distance!

Massage
treatments, reiki, facials and pedicures are available. Local and world acclaimed artists exhibit their
work at the Art Gallery. The
Fransie Pienaar Museum is recognised as one of the best local museums in
the country. Their indigenous gardens include one dedicated to
medicinal plants. There
are interesting little shops to explore along the length of Kerkstraat. At
Karoo Looms you can watch mohair rugs and

In
the evenings the Story Weaver, Ailsa Tudhope, entertains visitors as she
relates tales about local characters and ghosts on her Ghost Walk, or
tells stories over a pre-dinner drink.
Once
it is dark Astrotours can provide a fascinating glimpse into the crystal
clear night skies. |

The SoetKaroo cellar is across the road from
Mai's - here you can taste dessert wines from one of the smallest
wine estates in the country.
A
visit to Gay's Dairy is a must. The team produce cheeses that have won
awards in South Africa and abroad.
The
local Olive farms and fig farms welcome visitors and there are hiking
trails and 4x4 drives for guests who favour adventure activities. The
Swartberg Mountains and the world famous Swartberg Pass lie to the South
of the
village. |
|
Mai can advise you on day trips to explore the district. She can
also recommend coffee shops for teas and light lunches.
Enjoy
dinner at one of the local restaurants where you can sample authentic
Karoo fare after experiencing one of our magnificent sunsets....
