Friendly Accommodation at “The Center of the Universe”
Located in Rhodes, in the Eastern Cape, South Africa, the Walkerbouts Inn was established almost three decades ago by the proprietor, Dave Walker.
It is located on the same site as the original farmhouse of the farm “Tintern” on which the village of Rhodes was established in 1891. It is in an elevated position on the western side of Rhodes on a quiet cul-de-sac at the western end of Vorster Street.
The view from Walkerbouts across the village is stunning, to say the least with the magnificent backdrop of the mountains en route to the Naudesnek Pass. Summer or winter, the seasonal colourscape surpasses description.
It has long been my philosophy at Walkerbouts that “the proof of the pudding is in the return rate”. At the risk of being boastful, we have a solid core of regular visitors who are no longer guests but who have become firm friends.
We pride ourselves on fine country cuisine based, as far as is possible, on locally sourced produce and tweaked to make meals at Walkerbouts an authentic rural experience. This, together with typical Eastern Cape hospitality, we hope will make your stay with us one that will encourage your return sooner, or later.
Walkerbouts Inn is a venue for the discerning
for whom we go the extra mile.
