Description
Walkerbouts Inn - Rhodes is a 3 star, spacious country retreat with comfortable
accommodation in 6 bedrooms each with en-suite facilities. Each of the rooms have a wallmounted
panel heater and the beds have electric blankets to ward off the winter chill. We
offer fine country cuisine and hospitality in the best traditions of the Platteland. The relaxed
and hospitable atmosphere makes it a veritable home-from-home where you can kick off
your shoes and feel free to be yourself! We source as many of our kitchen supplies from
our own garden where fresh herbs and vegetables are grown, as far as weather permits.
To add to the fresh garden produce we also use locally produced, succulent chicken, lamb
and beef for our table.
Walkerbouts is located in the historic village of Rhodes which is situated at the
southernmost tip of the Drakensberg mountain range, 16km due south of the border with
the mountain Kingdom of Lesotho. The village is more than 1800m above sea level,
located on the banks of the Bell River. The nearest town is Barkly East which is 60km away
on a narrow and winding gravel road that must be driven with care. Thus, Rhodes is a
remote village almost frozen in time, a relic from the past. The unique nature of the
architecture in the village finds it’s origins in the Victorian era and is a compromise between
fashion, availability of materials and practicality. As of July 1997 the village was proclaimed
a National Monument
