Lemoenfontein offers a tranquil resting place for the weary traveller in the heart of South Africa's Great Karoo.
Set in the vast expanse of the South African Great Karoo, this beautiful homestead/lodge dates back to 1850.
Built slowly and soundly to the exacting standards and architectural style of the time, the building remains unchanged with characteristic high ceilings, original wooden floors and wide verandahs which offer guests a sweeping panoramic view of the Karoo landscape.
Originally built as a hunting retreat, the owner once a year would invite friends from both England and Scotland to travel with him to the homestead to hunt, relax and enjoy good company.
Apart from the excellent lodging facilities Lemoenfontein offers real South African home cooking, a self serve bar, TV-lounge, swimming pool and braai (barbeque) facilities.
Game drives early in the morning and late afternoon are an absolute must.
Lemoenfontein is an escape from the world at large, with beauty that defies description and a peace that invites visitors to return time and again.
Situated just off the N1 between Johannesburg and Cape Town 2 kilometers from Beaufort West, Lemoenfontein is the perfect stop over to break the long journey between north and south.
