Description



Victorian Style Guesthouse in the Heart of The Cape Province with Conference and Audio Visual Facilities.
Nestled in the heart of the Swartland at the edge of the unique mountain range that stands as an island lies Piketberg, home to Dunn’s Castle, designed by Herbert Baker for George Dunn. Piketburg is about an hour’s drive from Cape Town and a ½ hour’s drive from the West Coast. It stands alone in the middle of undulating fields of wheat, green vineyards and flowering canola. Dunn’s Castle was build in the late 1890’s and offers cosy rooms with Victorian finishes. Each room is complete with country décor and a fireplace. Three with double beds and two with twin beds. At present we can accommodate 54 guests on a Bed & Breakfast or Dinner, Bed & Breakfast basis. Nineteen self catering cottages with secure parking have recently been added. The Castle offers a peaceful retreat from the busy lifestyle we all experience. Enjoy a refreshing drink on the patio and gaze out on the amazing view of the entire Swartland.
