A majestic construction of stone and mortar, in the style of medieval castles of myth and fantasy, is Stone-Castle. With three storeys, and built right on the beach by Charl and Adsie Rossouw, the castle is a magnificent new addition to the tranquil stretch of coastline along Bluewater Bay in the Saldanha Bay area of the Cape West Coast. Stone-Castle offers shelter for the weary traveller. The thick stone walls and high ceilings, heavy doors and staircases leading to high towers, make it a castle in the real sense of the word. Visit Stone-Castle and experience the wonder and hospitality of a fairytale world.

Stone-Castle offers the hospitality and comfort of the Old World, and no castle is complete without towers. The rooms are all equipped with the necessary requirements, including a shower, old-style basin and toilet, TV, tea and coffee-making facilities, and boast fantastic views over Saldanha Bay.

Between the towers, on the roof of the castle, is a large entertainment area where guests can enjoy drinks and a barbecue under the sun, with a most spectacular view over the entire bay. The kitchen boils and steams with aromas of breakfast being prepared on the ancient cast-iron stove, and the great dining hall comfortably seats 40 people. Drinks are enjoyed around a magnificent fireplace. In addition, the castle has its own collection of books and a comfortable lounge in which to read and relax, while a study with a large desk of hand-carved oak provides guests with Internet access.

The Cape West Coast is filled with an array of fynbos and wild flowers, white sandy beaches, and a diverse assortment of activities including shopping, lovely seafood restaurants, boat trips, and scenic ventures. There is also a range of outdoor activities including hiking, game viewing, bird watching, and water sports. Stone-Castle offers a unique way to experience the wonders of the West Coast.

Great by

It was great!


Guest house from hell by

Although this beautiful view is portrayed on the website, it is a view from the ocean and in fact it is in a cramped cul-de-sac. We had chosen this venue because of its romantic setting - what a let-down! It was freezing cold on the day we arrived - there were no heaters in the rooms and no electric blankets on the beds. The showers were so small that we decided just to "splash & dip" as there was no way in which we could move around in them. All in all, the most unpleasant experience of our trip! Will not recommend this place to anybody.


One day wonder by

We thoroughly enjoyed the stay at the Stone castle, how often can one say that they stayed in a castle over the weekend? The room though small was more than enough... it was perfect for the two of us. The castle itself has brilliant views overlooking the bay and our room allowed the evening sun to sneak in and say goodbye as the night set in. We were allowed to make a fire in the evening in the dining room as we enjoyed a bottle of red wine. The breakfast was perfectly delicious and all in all the entire experience was great.


Excellent Hospitality by

This was our first stay at Stone Castle and definitely not our last. The owners gave us a warm greeting on arrival, made us feel as if the castle was our home and were extremely friendly and delightful. We liked the place so much we booking another weekend this coming Saturday with the parents.(1 Week Later)


Highly recommended! by

Upon arrival, and meeting the hostes Adsie, you get the sense that cleanliness, and guest comfort and experience is of the utmost importance. We were given the option as to which room we wanted (opted for the tower of course). And what a view! Furthermore, included in the budget-friendly rates you are also served a hearty breakfast in the morning. Can definitely recommend Stone Castle when exploring the wonderful West Coast.


Live like a King & Queen by

The venue owners made our stay an absolute pleasure. The location is right on the beach, with beautiful view from the deck on the top of the Castle. The Castle is rich in history with a lot of artifacts from yesteryear. Absolutely awesome. Thanx from. Aubrey & Angela
