Orange River Lodge Accommodation in Colesberg

Welcome to Orange River Lodge in Colesberg


Orange River Lodge in Colesberg is a hidden secret in the Upper Karoo close to the Orange River that blends together mythologies of ancient Scotland and Ireland with old mystical Africa in times when dinosaurs roamed its vast planes.

The Orange River and the Oorlogspoort spruit border the farm with ample bird life that shares the trees on the river banks with inquisitive monkeys. Here you will see the brightest stars at night and in full moon you can wander safely on the farm to our popular Koppie which has views that emphasizes the desolation of the Karoo.

The farm is only 20 km from the Gariep dam airport which has a 4 direction tarred landing strip The lodge has been renovated in fine style and the colonial architecture blends in perfectly with its tranquil Karoo surroundings. The rooms are luxury converted horse stables and the restaurant is situated in the old farm house which was built in 1890. Pepper Trees surrounds the old house.

The lodge does not only cater for weary travelers but it is also an enjoyable breakaway in the peaceful Karoo with enough activities to keep you occupied day and night.
