Going from Cape Town over the mountains you enter the Overberg region, a quiet agricultural area bordered by beautiful wild coasts and rough mountains. In this region, at the beginning of the Garden route the charming town of Swellendam is located.

At the top of Swellendam's main road, Voortrekker Street, you see the crown jewel of the towns' legendary, beautiful buildings: the perfectly maintained Dutch Reformed Church.

As you continue you enter the core of the most historic of the Western Cape towns: The Drostdy Complex, once the seat of an independent republic. Behind this building Helpi & Freerk Brandsma own and run an Inn or Guesthouse-restaurant with the magical name of Roosje van de Kaap.

The main building of Roosje van de Kaap was once a part of the Drostdy. Here Freerk & Helpi created an award winning restaurant.

Welcome to Roosje van de Kaap!

The garden, with its lush indigenous vegetation and a large grass field, enjoys vistas of the imposing Langeberg Mountains and affords privacy to the rooms.

Three Standard rooms are situated around a sparkling pool, which offers guests a cool relief on a sunny day. From the poolcourt a small stairs leeds to the garden and the six Garden rooms.

The terrace in front of the restaurant is overlooking the Drostdy estate where a flock of geese graze underneath centuries old oak trees.

In the front of the main building two private Home rooms are located and the Honeymoon room is upstairs with a private terrace overlooking the Langeberg mountains.

Our restaurant has been rated one of the best restaurants along the Garden Route several times. You can expect a variety of cooking disciplines, from Cape Malay fare to classic French reductions.
