Matoppo ‘aan de wagenweg ‘ is one of Beaufort West’s most beautifully restored drostdy buildings, dating back to the 17th century and is situated within a sprawling, lush garden estate in the heart of the Karoo. This guest house is an urban sanctuary with a romantic heritage, a unique sense of style and a commitment to service excellence. Whether travelling through the Karoo for business or leisure, Matoppo Inn is an elegant oasis which offers luxurious accommodation in the peace and serenity of a spacious Karoo environment.
Breakfast, lunch and dinner are served in a dining room which dates back to the 1830's. High wooden ceilings create an ambience of yesteryear and large sash windows allow crisp Karoo air and sunlight into a room where magnificent dinners, state functions and balls were once held on the gleaming yellow wood floors.
Dinner is served beside a crackling fire to banish the Karoo winter chill. In summer, Karoo cuisine can be enjoyed in the courtyard or in the privacy of your own air-conditioned room. Chefs prepare a 3-course meal. Breakfast, lunch and dinner must be booked in advance
The individually decorated rooms are equipped with air conditioning, a bar fridge, satellite TV, hair dryer, hot blankets and tea-and-coffee making facilities. Fine antique pieces and gleaming yellowwood floors lend elegance and enchantment to the old-world ambience of yesteryear.
