The View Swellendam B & B is located in one of the best parts of Swellendam with truly magnificent views up into the majestic Langeberg Mountains, but within in easy walking distance to all the historical building, museums and restaurants. The view is a newly and lovingly renovated large family home, set in a lush, established garden where guests can enjoy quiet relaxation. We have 4 beautifully appointed and furnished ensuite rooms. All rooms have mountain views.
