Description

Clarendon Guest House invites you to spend your night with us in this historical building that was an orphanage for girls until 1962. We offer you Old World elegance with modern facilities. The orphanage was started in 1918 by Reverend MTR Smit when he took in 12 orphaned children. 120 girls were housed here until 1962. A new orphanage was built and in March 1962, they were moved to the new building complex.

The guest house offers 16 comfortable rooms; some have fully equipped kitchens and others share kitchens. Meals can be provided on request and is served in the dining room that has a warm inviting fireplace for those cold winter nights. There is ample parking in front and behind the building.

The area offers a variety of things to do. From skiing in the mountains in winter and hiking trails to enjoy in summer. Explore the rock art and Tractor Museum, or spend a leisurely day on the riverbed fishing.

Fantastic weekend
Eddie Dreyer, South Africa
10 April 2012
Our stay at Clarendon was very nice. The reception was friendly even though we arrived later than planned. It is spacious, clean and it took us 60 years back into an era where wood was appreciated and formed part of the décor around you. Keep this jewel for our children as very few will ever understand the value of Clarendon House.
What a warm welcome!
Diane Laenen, South Africa
10 January 2012
We were warmly welcomed to this beautiful guest house with so much history. Our hostess was very friendly, we had a wonderful dinner and enjoyed a quiet New Year's eve. The only negative is maybe that the bathroom needs some attention, but we understand the massive task of renovating this old building. We will most definitely return.
Great halfway stop
Stephan Kruger, South Africa
03 January 2012
We travelled from Durban to Port Alfred and Ugie was a perfect halfway stop. Our family stayed in a family room with optional self-catering facilities. We made our own dinner and had breakfast catered. The room was comfortable and the staff very friendly.
Enjoyable stay
Tracey Johnson, South Africa
10 August 2011
We all received a warm welcome and our three young children were especially made to feel welcome. The family room we resided in sufficiently provided for our needs. This little neck of the woods is an undiscovered tourist haven, nestled in the mountains, with beautiful views and friendly people. We recommend a visit there.
