Oude Pastorie is undoubtedly one of Cradock's most gracious homesteads. The unique appeal of this 1904 historic house is the genuine shade of yesteryear - old world charm offering comfortable private and self-contained apartments in a peaceful environment.
The time machine must have dialed back a few decades and come to rest at this peaceful place. The art pieces, antique brass beds, wooden floors with Persian carpets all add to the comfort of an unique stay.
The ambience of country charm is also reflected in the guest lounge, entrance hall and dining room with large wooden frame sash windows and high ceilings.
The historical homestead with its picturesque garden provides a peaceful and tranquil ambiance and has various seating as well as a braai and entertainment area.
The spacious verandah is furnished with a variety of tables and chairs and overlooks the garden.
The property is secured with a remote controlled gate and secure parking is provided on site.
