Welcome to Die Dorpshuis

Your haven on Route 62

Die Dorpshuis is centrally situated in Calitzdorp a quaint little town on ROUTE 62, nestled in the heart of the Klein Karoo, Western Cape.

Die Dorpshuis was built in the late 1800's as a prestige residence for an unknown person. Since then it was extended and became the residence and surgery for the dorp's doctors and eventually the home to a local school master.

     

Come and have the most relaxing stay at our B & B and Self Catering in beautifully decorated, comfortable en-suite rooms with DSTV. A warm atmosphere is created by Oregon floors and fireplaces. 

The garden, described by a guest as 'a little farm glen', is our pride, and is rounded off with an azure pool and braai area.

The restaurant is open around the clock, and offers mouthwatering traditional home-cooked fare.

The gift shop sells fresh dried fruit, home-made jams and curios.
