Cradock House in Cradock Reviewed by George Robinson, South Africa on . Step back in timeStopping in Cradock, South Africa was recommended by a fellow traveler. We took a chance and found Cradock House B&B that is the best value for money. It is an older house that apparently caters to corporate bookings. We could hear that there were at least two other guests, but never saw them; only stayed one night. The en suite room was huge and furnished with an eclectic blend of older furniture. There was a huge refrigerator and electric kettle for coffee/tea. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom was clean and soap and shampoo were provided like a good hotel. There is even a small outside sitting area to enjoy the wine you bring after a long drive from Cape Town. Breakfast was substantial and delicious. The town is an old Victorian one and seems like you have taken a step back in time. Dinner at the Old Victorian Hotel, recommended by the Cradock House owner, was fantastic. If you are on your way to or from Cape Town, this is definitely a place to stop and have a look around. The only small thing is that the owner was friendly but very rushed as she showed us to the room and told us a few things as she gave us the keys. It seemed that we had interrupted her dinner and she needed to get back to her house. Luckily we had her cell phone number because we arrived at the back gate and there was no way to ring the establishment. It seemed that there use to be an intercom, but it was no longer there, just the wires. She had to drive from wherever she lives to let us in the gate and get us checked in. Also, Cradock House was very difficult to find because our Google maps kept giving us incorrect directions. We finally asked some very helpful townspeople but even they gave incorrect directions but it was closer than what we were getting from Google maps. Perhaps the owner could provide directions in her write up of her establishment.
