Die Tuishuise is an elegant collection of beautifully
restored Victorian era craftsmen’s houses in Cradock, the
frontier town at the eastern edge of the Great Karoo. More than
two dozen Tuishuise line Market Street up to the Victoria Manor,
a grand old colonial hotel that welcomes you with hearty country
fare, décor from the days of Cecil John Rhodes, Olive Schreiner
and the droves of adventurers who passed here en route to the
hinterland. Modern day over-landers crossing South Africa on holiday
and business groups looking for inspiration stay at Die Tuishuise,
where they are received like old friends and treated like gentry.

the present and enjoy the historically rich surrounding, as well
