Superior Country Guest House
Luxury Victorian
Classic Lodge Apartments
- The historic architectural splendour and timeless interiors of CAPE DUTCH QUARTERS set us apart from most establishments in the valley.
- The heritage houses were built in 1810 and 1813, but were Victorianised at the end of the 19th Century. After the earthquake of 1969, these properties were restored and reconstructed ,with no costs spared, back into their original historic appearance.
- Tulbagh Country Guest House has been operating as a guest house since 2000, but was incorporated into Cape Dutch Quarters in 2005 when the current owner, Jayson Augustyn-Clark, returned to Tulbagh from the UK.
- Passionate and proactive about the preservation of Tulbagh’s unique heritage, Jayson chairs the local heritage foundation, details can be accessed here.

We booked for our honeymoon. No special service. Nothing. Front staff unfriendly. Lots of noise at our room and the person doing the deliveries said he didn't care. He was... read more there to work. We have stayed many places but this place was not welcoming at all. We mentioned we were staying there for our honeymoon but it might as well have been a business trip.

We told the lady that checked us in that the tv is a must because of my wife's sleaping problems and that we have to seek alternative accommodation.

The venue is well located in the main road which makes it wonderful. The room are spacious, clean, good quality linen, simplistic bathrooms. It is a good venue for family... read more or friends outings as they have a pool and lapa area.
Reception is wonderful, warm and welcoming [only disappointment for myself was the little effort that was done when I inquired about the reason why I had to pay Full price for my daughter (3yrs old) who according to their stipulations are suppose to pay 50% - I was just told that its not like that].
I furthermore feel that they can maybe improve on their promises as they had no rusk on our coffee trey, and also the coffee is of a very low standard - I honestly expected better.
I will be visiting again, with the hopes of being able to than give a "5 star" rating.
Only giving 3 stars because of the coffee and the lack of attendance to look into my inquiry.

Wagon Shed not what I expected. The security was dismal. There was dust falling from the bathroom ceiling the whole time we were there. We could... read more not use the bath. There was mould on the shower wall. The bedframe was somewhat dilapidated in my opinion.
The decorations in the common areas looked like they had been deterioration untended for years. A rusty bicycle frame missed a seat and had some dry branches sticking out of the front basket that was falling apart. Many of the outside walls was in desparate need of paint. If I had an option I would have changed my booking but it was prepaid and only for one night so we stayed.
The staff was friendly and cooperative but could not do much to change the situation.
The location was nice and allowed esy access to the surrounding areas More
March 26, 2022We had an apartment/family room with two separate bedrooms. The entrance for this apartment is on Church Street, but you can also enter via the (traffic-wise) much busier Van der... read more Stel Street with an electronic key and walk through the courtyard. This courtyard gives a very heavenly feeling and is a wonderful place to relax on the various seating areas or by the pool. You can park the car in both streets and seemed very safe. Overall we really felt safe in Tulbagh.
The rooms breathe the old atmosphere and feel luxurious. The beds were very comfortable. Reception was friendly and it was clear that you could also ask questions about the area etc. The Guest House is close to wonderful restaurants at both the front and back, a 1-minute walk away: Paddagang and the Olive Garden. There ar more options but these two are the nearest and the ones we have visited. More
March 11, 2022After a friendly welcome, our host, Jayson, showed us around the facilities. Our self catering unit opened out onto a stoep with beautiful views up and down historic Church Street.... read more The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom had been well restored and functioned well.Our unit was well equipped and a nice extra is that the main kitchen is available for supplementary utensils on request. We enjoyed a relaxing braai at the courtyard boma and a cooked breakfast in the sumptuously decorated yet intimate dining room on the morning of our departure.
The guesthouse is perfectly situated to to visit the surrounding wine and olive farms. Thank you Jayson, Marcel and Charmaine! We would be happy to visit again!
