AROUND TOWN
The gorgeous village of Rosendal is set on the edge of the Witteberge, which forms part of the foothills of the magnificent Maluti Mountains. It’s a photographer’s paradise and a sanctuary where artists and writers find their inspiration.
The Rosendal Country Retreat is bathed in local history and had its origins as a cheese farm many years ago. Rosendal is a small self-contained village with limited resources. There are three small shops that cater to basic needs - including a bakery and a bottle store.
There is no atm in town, so Senekal would be the last point for cash withdrawals. Please note that petrol and diesel are not available on Sundays.
In case of emergency, the closest chemist or doctor is 40km away, in either Senekal or Ficksburg.
