When to visit?

Le Karoo est agréable toute l'année : le printemps (août-octobre) offre une végétation fleurie et des températures douces, tandis que l'automne et l'hiver permettent de profiter des ciels étoilés exceptionnellement clairs et de l'atmosphère chaleureuse des cheminées. Les étés sont chauds et ensoleillés, idéaux pour les levers et couchers de soleil spectaculaires.

Local producers involved

Le domaine dispose d'un tunnel maraîcher biologique (organic tunnel) fournissant des produits frais locaux. Prince Albert est réputé pour ses producteurs artisanaux, ses olives, ses figues et ses fromages du Karoo, accessibles à moins de 400 mètres des cottages.
