The Bethesda Guest House, Eastern Cape

The Bethesda offers luxury accommodation in tranquil surrounds. Set in the heart of Nieu-Bethesda village on sprawling grounds, one is met by an expansive ‘stoep’ (verandah) facing the formal rose garden.

Natural wooden floors lead to the spacious interior and charming en-suite rooms with its custom designed and sourced furniture and textiles. Large windows, high ceilings and solid walls provide a cool refuge in summer and a warm haven in winter.

All the rooms are individually decorated, expressing Karoo chic with classic style, and open out onto the garden. Comfort and detail are of the utmost importance with extra length king size beds, crisp white percale linen and towels, high quality amenities and robes and slippers.
