DescriptionBuilt in 1905 by Sidney Herbert Adley during the Ostrich Feather Boom this magnificent Victorian home was bequeathed in 1948 to the orphans of the Second World War. Sidney Herbert Adley bequeathed “Adley house” to the SA War memorial fund in 1948. It became the home of 16 Polish orphans under supervision of Major McMoran & his good lady. After finishing High school in the early sixties Adley house was sold. Some of these Polish orphans settled in SA and from time to time visit Adley house, the only home they really knew, and tell us stories form their childhood in Oudtshoorn at Adley house. We bought Adley house in 1989 & undertook the arduous task of restoration. Hilda started a bed & breakfast with only 2 rooms in 1994 and because of its popularity it has developed into to a 4 star guesthouse with 14 rooms. Pieter & Hilda Retief manage Adley house personally. As true South African’s and residents in Oudtshoorn for 41 years, they will not only give you a warm welcome and real South Africa Hospitality but also answer all the questions you may have about Oudtshoorn and the surroundings.
