Welcome to The Barracks
The Barracks (so named as the property was used as barracks during the Anglo-Boer War) was built in 1851 and substantially renovated in 2004. The original building, which is now our family unit, was soon augmented by the main house as the owner, David Arnot, was a prolific breeder of children and needed plenty of accommodation to house his large family.
The comfortable and spacious Colesberg Accommodation has double rooms, all with private access, have their own bathroom en suite (Unit 03 is Shower Only) and private patios. They are all fully air-conditioned to ensure a comfortable stay no matter what the season is. All rooms have TV’s with M Net (DSTV Hotel Bouquet).
We also have a large family unit with its own private courtyard shaded by a large oak tree and grape vines. This unit is also ideal for guests travelling with dogs.
Secure off-street parking is available, but limited, NO TRAILERS / BOATS OR CARAVAN. Please note that no arrivals will be accepted after 09:00pm (21:00Hrs).

Guest Reviews
"Great stopover in the Karoo"
Our overnight at the Barracks was made so much more pleasant by the warm hospitality of Mike and Annalie. Good food and the cosy, well appointed room just rounded it all off. We will definitely stay there again. - Patrick K
