KAMBRO COTTAGE
Self Catering Flatlet Accommodation
in Graaff-Reinet, Western Region,
Eastern Cape, South Africa

Your host, Greg invites you to experience the history, nature and beauty of Graaff Reinet while staying at Kambro Cottage; his little refuge in the Karoo.

Kambro Cottage is centrally located in the historical section of town, away from the hustle and bustle, yet within walking distance to shops, banks, restaurants, the museum complex and the famous Dutch Reformed "Grootkerk". It is surrounded by numerous examples of Karoo style architecture which are reminders of a bygone era.

Kambro Cottage is named after the watery flesh of an ancient, edible, potato-like bulb that was loved by early indigenous Karoo dwellers. History states that when the settlers came they too learned to enjoy the Kambro. Many said the flesh of this tuber tasted like "spring water on a hot, dry, dusty day. It was also described by many as "the white watery gold of the Karoo."

Kambro Cottage is a single-story, flat-roofed dwelling built in 1840. It is a National Monument and is an intrinsic part of the town's history.

We hope, that just like those early Karoo dwellers, you will find Kambro Cottage a refreshing surprise, offering you the chance to relax in a safe and private atmosphere as well as explore the town at your own leisure.

Accommodation

Accommodation is provided in two tastefully decorated Cottages each with their own private entrance and safe off-street, undercover parking. The Somerset Cottage and the Cradock Cottage are supplied with crisp linens, plush towels, toiletries and all the modern conveniences that you may need during your stay.

Each Cottage sleeps four comfortably with each offering one double bed and two single beds, private bathroom, a fully equipped kitchen and a combined sitting and dinning room area.

These two affordable Cottages are the ideal over-night stop for couples, families and small groups.

Regrettably no pets are allowed as Kambro Cottage has its own permanent pet residents.
