Stay with Us
Recommended route is from CRADDOCK GOING THROUGH HOFMEYER, STEYNSBURG IN THE DIRECTION OF VENTERSTAD. This will save you about fifty kms over the Colesberg route and is much prettier and with fewer trucks. CAUTION:
If traveling after darkness please exercise extreme awareness as there are lots of critters jumping about on the road including big stuff like Kudus! We are not kidding!
Traveling up Main Street Steynsburg get ready to TURN LEFT just as you leave the town about 0.2kms after the STORMSBERG GUESTHOUSE which you will see on your right. Cross the RAILWAY and sit back and enjoy the scenery for the next 70 kms or so until you reach the COLESBERG / OVISTON / VENTERSTAD CROSSROADS ON THE R58. TURN LEFT and continue for about 40kms until you GO PAST the RIGHT TURN TO GARIEP DAM. CONTINUE FOR ABOUT 6-7kms and reach the RIGHT TURN SIGNPOSTED BETHULIE / BLOEMFONTEIN. TURN RIGHT and pass the easily recognisable POLICE POST on the LEFT and travel a further 0.6kms to find the GLASGOW PONT HOTEL on the left.
All the National Bus Services stop in Colesberg at the N1 Service Areas. Give us a buzz before you start your journey as they tend to arrive at the most ungodly hours of the morning and we are pretty grumpy around 0300h unless we're well supplied with coffee!
BLOEMFONTEIN AIRPORT. Call for a quote and we will arrange to collect you. Fuel costs will be a factor.
GARIEP DAM AIRFIELD. Call beforehand if you can. If you are stuck on the airfield for a few hours we will also come collect you and your party if you wish to visit our well stocked BAR or to sample the delights of our restaurant.
SPRINGFONTEIN HOT AIR BALLOONING CENTRE. Call for a quote. Prevailing fuel costs will be a factor.
About 850kms from Quay 4. Arrive at the N1 ENGEN ONE STOP SERVICE AREA on the southern edge of Colesberg and take the RIGHT TURN directly opposite to drive into Colesberg Town and continue over the first 4-way stop after about 0.5kms.
