Okiep Country Hotel

 
 

Description

Okiep Country Hotel is a convenient stopover or holiday base for tourists, nature lovers, businessmen, and travellers. Located 100 km from the Namibian border on the N7 in the heart of Namaqualand, the hotel is the ideal stopover between Cape Town and Windhoek.

Malcolm and his friendly staff offer you traditional country hospitality in a modern and elegant setting in the historic town of Okiep, once the site of the richest copper mine in the world. Tours to the surrounding areas are also available on request. All rooms are en-suite, with air-conditioning and DStv.

Okiep is the oldest mining town in South Africa, where copper was first discovered and mined in 1855. A railway line from Okiep to Port Nolloth was built in 1866 for the shipping of copper, and because there was not enough water for the steam engines, the Namaqualand Mule Train was pulled by mules until 1890. In 1918 the Okiep copper mines ceased operating and the place almost became a ghost town. In springtime, Okiep is - like the whole of Namaqualand - very rich in blossoming wild flowers.

Loved it!
MICHAEL ATTWELL, South Africa
30 March 2012
I loved my stay at Okiep Country House. The buildings lived up to the pictures - which doesn't always happen! It was charming and a real oasis. But most of all, I loved the people. Malcolm and his staff were delightful company and made my stay totally memorable. Thanks guys!

We had a very pleasant stay at the hotel. The lamb curry we had for dinner was absolutely excellent.
Okiep, just another hotel
Marius Britz, South Africa
05 October 2011
I am very disappointed with my choice to visit this location. The only good thing was the bed. The couch's springs were all faulty, the shower had slow water, and when we got out of bed, there were bugs! I think this hotel must be down graded to 1 Star, nothing more. You don't get what you pay for! I will not pay more than R250 per night per room, nothing more. If I look at the room we had in Keimoes and now here at Port Nolloth, both 3 Star, then you will understand why Okiep is ... more
Good hotel

Must be the jewel of Springbok. Everything was excellent, the staff, the rooms.
Very nice

We found the room very nice and enjoyed the night we spent there. The staff were also very accommodating when we realised that an amount was still outstanding once we left.
