About Old Mill Country Lodge
Restaurant & Seasonal Working Ostrich Farm
Nestled at the foothills of the Swartberg Mountains in Schoemanshoek, we’re just 14 km along the road from Oudtshoorn towards the world-renowned Cango Caves.
Our farm is a working ostrich farm during the season, where you can witness the farming of ostrich chicks and fully grown ostriches. We offer a wide range of activities, making it a perfect destination for families.
There’s plenty for the children too, with fun activities in Oudtshoorn and the surrounding Garden Route and Klein Karoo areas, just a stone’s throw from Mossel Bay, Hartenbos, George, and Knysna. Let the little ones enjoy watching ostrich chicks in season, as well as bunnies and ponies for a truly memorable experience.

EXCELLENTBased on 318 reviewsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Thenysia Krishna15/08/2024We loved our 2 bedroom apartment. So luxurious and conveniently situatedTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Hanli Lee Rossouw30/07/2024The room was lovely and perfect for an overnight stay, offering comfort with a king-size bed and a warm comforter. Although my photos captured a beautiful blue sky, the weather was freezing and icy cold, with snow on the Matroosberge. Unfortunately, this prevented us from experiencing the outdoor activities and amenities such as the animals, grassy walking paths and pools. Despite the cold weather, the proximity to numerous tourist destinations like the Cango Caves and nearby wildlife sanctuaries made it a worthwhile visit.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Eliza Faul06/07/2024Great getaway just outside of Oudtshoorn, close to all the local attractions and an attraction in itself with a lovely restaurant and loads for the kids to do in a safe environment.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.ronny wils07/11/2023Wat verder van het centrumTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Saumik Samanta30/04/2023Perfect place for spending quality time with friends and family out from city life.
