Description

The Historic Pig and Whistle Inn was established in 1832, the cornerstone attraction of the frontier town of Bathurst and is a South African Heritage Site, as well as home to the oldest continuously licensed pub in the country. This is the ideal location for guests seeking a relaxing one-of-a-kind getaway.

This traditional Inn has 10 bedrooms, all restored and furnished with tasteful antiques. The historic bedrooms share 2 bathrooms. All bedrooms can accommodate 2 guests.

The restaurant is popular among visitors and locals, offering traditional English food and Sunday roasts, which are popular, so booking is recommended, freshly baked cakes and desserts, vegetarian meals, and Mediterranean favourites. The pub's cheerful atmosphere has made it a favourite among locals and its history makes it a popular watering hole for holiday-makers. There is also an À la carte menu for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Guests can enjoy the garden area, take a refreshing swim in the pool, or the children can have a fun time at the play area. The area around the Historic Pig and Whistle Inn is full of interesting things to see and do.
