Kingfisher Guesthouse: a great accommodation choice in Graaff-Reinet

Founded 1786, the town Graaff-Reinet is South Africa’s fourth oldest town. Today, it is noted as having more national monuments than any other town or city in South Africa – over 220 sites. For this reason, it is a popular destination for relaxed romantic or family escapes into the Karoo countryside.

Its location also makes it a popular stop for long-distance travellers as the R61 and R63 converge in the town.

Situated in the town’s quiet Cypress Grove suburb – next to the Sundays River, is the Kingfisher Guesthouse surrounded by giant old trees that create a sense of tranquility. Many of the guests point out the charm of the place as well as the genuine hospitality they receive from the owner and her staff.

Kingfisher Guesthouse is then the perfect base to experience what Graaff-Reinet has to offer – breath-taking sunsets, day trips to the Valley of Desolation and Nieu Bethesda, game viewing at nearby parks and other interesting things to do.

Accommodation at Kingfisher Guesthouse
Kingfisher Guesthouse has eight fully-furnished rooms that come with en-suite bathrooms. Each room has its own private entrance that leads directly on the drive-in courtyard.

The Double Room and Twin Room are ideal for a travelling duo while the Family Rooms are geared for families. They come with either a comfy Double bed or a King-size bed with two single beds. These rooms can sleep two adults and two children.

Romantic couples have not been forgotten at Kingfisher Guesthouse and can make use of their Honeymoon Suite. The room comes with a King-size four-poster bed.

All the rooms come with TV with DStv, heaters (it can be cold in the winter), ceiling fans, Tea/Coffee facilities, a bar fridge and Microwave.

They also have a comfortable reading lounge, TV room, wine cellar and pool side bar as well as an entertainment area for braais, potjies and general get-togethers.

Facilities at Kingfisher Guesthouse
Kingfisher Guesthouse has a relaxed guest area in a large lush garden where you can relax and unwind after a long journey. Nearby is a swimming pool when you can take a dip on those hot Karoo summer days.

The Guesthouse also accommodates functions of all types and weddings in the garden.

To prepare you for your day, they offer a full country-style breakfast. Dinners are a home-cooked feast with desert and two soft drinks. Due to the availability of great restaurants nearby offering from the usual to unique Karoo cooking, lunches and dinners at Kingfisher Guesthouse are only available on request.

Things to do at Kingfisher Guesthouse
There is plenty to do in Graaff-Reinet – much of it on foot! Literally, at almost every corner is some piece of history that visitors to the town will find fascinating. A stroll or a guided tour from Kingfisher will reveal more than 50 of these historic sites and beautiful homes exuding a fine mix of Cape Dutch, Karoo and Victorian architecture.

At your request, your hosts can also arrange a sunset picnic at the Valley of Desolation on your behalf. From its impressive dolomites, you can have panoramic views of the town and the Karoo plains beyond it.

There are also several parks to visit including the Camdeboo National Park, which surrounds the town. The nearby Nqweba Dam is a popular location for water sports.

Your hosts will be more than happy to make some recommendations.

Reviews from previous Kingfisher Guesthouse guests
“It has been an enjoyable stay my family loved. It has been a center for all the movement we wanted to make. A stone throw from town. Kids enjoyed the swimming pool. Marvelous and excellent! Keep up the good friendliness and hospitality Carina, Kingfisher Lodge will be my nest stop again in future,” Voyage13354794714 wrote on their TripAdvisor page.

SonjavT also wrote; “Perfect for a quick overnight stay. Old fashion bedroom, well equipped. Just outside town, situated in a very quiet dead end road, so very tranquil and very safe. We were welcomed by many friendly dogs.”

“We had such a wonderful stay at Kingfisher Lodge, Carina was an excellent host so welcoming, friendly and went out of her way for a BDay request. The breakfast was scrumptious. Property clean and staff friendly. Would highly recommend Kingfisher Lodge,” adds 347lynne.
