NEW: The Karoo Family Experience

Discover this brand new offering at Drostdy Hotel - just in time for the winter school holidays!

Our Karoo Family Experience is designed for families who want more than a place to sleep, but a stay with texture, flavour, and the kind of moments children bring up years later.

From a welcome platter of local treats waiting in your room on arrival, to a visit to the Karoo Origins Fossil Centre (world-class exhibits, ancient Karoo fossils, and yes, dinosaurs), to a dedicated kids tasting experience while the adults enjoy a proper wine tasting in the De Camdeboo Wijnkamer.

Daily breakfast is included, with the lawns, pool, and wide Karoo sky as your backdrop.

Inclusions:

• Daily breakfast for the family
• In-room floor beds for children
• Entry to the Karoo Origins Fossil Centre
• Wine tasting for adults
• Kids tasting experience
• Local treat platter on arrival

From R4 220 per night for 2 adults and a child.

Some rituals deserve to be savoured.

This winter, we are celebrating one of our favourite "me time" moments.

Join us for afternoon tea at De Camdeboo Restaurant, which includes a slice of the cake of the day or freshly baked scones, paired with your choice of specialty tea from our collection - Rooibos, Earl Grey, Cape Green, Chocolate Chai, and more - or a proper cup of coffee if that's more your style.

Small, considered, and exactly what a Karoo afternoon calls for.

This one is for the food-lovers.

Mosbolletjiebrood is a traditional South African sweet bread originally made with grape must instead commercial yeast. The result is a soft, pull-apart loaf with a gently sweet flavour that has been coming out of Cape and Karoo kitchens for centuries.

Come and sample it at De Camdeboo Restaurant - best served fresh, warm and with a generous helping of butter.
