Steeped in history and renowned for its exceptional hospitality, La Pension Guest House presents a rare opportunity to acquire one of Oudtshoorn's most established boutique hospitality businesses. Operating as a successful going concern with an outstanding 9.8 TripAdvisor rating, this landmark property combines heritage, lifestyle and excellent investment potential.
Situated on almost an acre of beautifully landscaped gardens in one of Oudtshoorn's most desirable suburbs, the estate offers ten beautifully appointed bedrooms, thoughtfully spread across several unique buildings to provide privacy, flexibility and exceptional guest experiences.
The original 1914 Cape Dutch residence serves as the heart of the estate and features two spacious bedrooms, elegant reception rooms and a country-style kitchen. Connected to the main house is a luxury en-suite guest suite, while a separate one-bedroom manager's cottage provides dedicated on-site accommodation.

This beautifully restored sandstone building offers two luxury en-suite bedrooms, an open-plan lounge with a wood-burning fireplace, a fully equipped country-style kitchen, and the famous "world's smallest wine cellar," created from the original underground vehicle inspection pit. Underfloor heating in the bathroom and the unique Hell Rider exhibition complete this unforgettable guest experience.
A separate guest lodge accommodates four fully furnished en-suite bedrooms, each fitted with air conditioning, smart TVs and quality finishes. Guests enjoy a welcoming entrance hall, communal lounge with a fireplace, dining area, fully equipped kitchen, laundry facilities, covered verandah overlooking the manicured gardens, and dedicated covered parking for each suite.
The estate is completed by the popular Lucky Bean Café, Madi Bar and entertainment area, sparkling swimming pool, fire boma, beautifully landscaped gardens, secure undercover parking, dual street access, two title deeds, fibre internet, a 36-panel solar system with an 8kW inverter, extensive underground water storage, and a comprehensive security system.
