Set midst mountain and the vine, lies your home from home in picturesque Montagu. Monte Vista Boutique Hotel offers thirteen “Afri-chic” en-suite bedrooms, each with their own private veranda’s. Alternatively opt for our sister and next door property, Airlies Historical House, for a more traditional Karoo-heritage experience.
We have the perfect setting to unwind and enjoy a time of leisure around our pools and beautiful gardens, overlooking encompassing mountain views. Our prime spot on the historical Church street also means you can leisurely stroll to fine restaurants, art galleries, and museums.
Montagu has a way of refreshing and restoring like no other little town. Come see for yourself.
Montagu is the western gateway to the Little Karoo as well as the scenic heart of Route 62, the historic link between Cape Town, the Garden Route and Port Elizabeth (ADDO Elephant Park).
Montagu is about 2 hours drive from Cape Town. It is the perfect stop for tourists travelling between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth. Port Elizabeth is about 6 hours drive to the east.
A unique rural atmosphere distinguishes Montagu as one of the best kept late Victorian agricultural villages in the Western Cape. The many attractions and the fact that Montagu is centrally situated makes it a sought after tourist town and perfect base from where the countryside can be explored.
There are a number of hiking trails in the area as well as opportunities for rock climbers. The hot springs just outside of town are very popular. Horse riding, golf, tennis, bowls and other sports can also be exercised.
