DescriptionWe have a swimming pool for you to cool down in and a lovely lush garden for you to sit back and relax. Private undercover parking is available. In 1847 the small Klein Karoo town known as 'Veldskoen' was renamed Oudtshoorn. Six years later, Oakdene was built on the main road by Mr. J.H. Mulder, who later also built Oudtshoorn's magnificent sandstone Moederkerk and the Pastorie. In Oakdene, Mulder's style blended typical Cape vernacular with elements of traditional Victorian and Klein Karoo architecture. The original Victorian trelliswork which still stands perfectly intact today, was added around the turn of the Century. The 'lei-watersloot' running in front of the house is the last remaining section of the original lei which supplied water to the Oudtshoorn of old. In order to preserve the lei, the historic facade and the oak trees in front of Oakdene, the building was declared a National Monument in 1988. Oakdene is one of the oldest and finest examples of architecture from the early days of Oudtshoorn. Accommodation We have 6 en-suite rooms with tea & coffee facilities in each one. There is also a telephone to keep you in touch with the rest of the world.
