History
Schoemanspoort is half way between Oudtshoorn and the Cango Caves . Surrounded by mountains and the Grobbelaar`s River runs through the valley.
The name “Stonebreaker” originates from a Stone Breaker Machine ( England ), which was used until 1962 at the quarry on this property. Stonebreaker Country Lodge was built in 1997 consisting of thatched buildings to blend in with nature.
The main theme is African with special attention to luxury. Stonebreaker Country Lodge is situated in a very safe environment.
