Lydenburg

Guest house, Self Catering

(11 units)

De Ark House dates back to 1857, which makes it one of the oldest remaining buildings in Lydenburg. Initially built as a parsonage, the house was completed in late 1857 with Rev JH Neethling and his family as the first residents. In 1893 it was converted into a double-storey building.

During the Anglo-Boer War the house was confiscated by the British and used as an officer's mess.

This delightful old house has been lovingly restored and tastefully decorated to reveal the timelessness of a bygone era combined luxury.

De Ark offers a combination of self-catering and Bed & Breakfast services. We can currently accommodate up to 18 persons sharing.

De Ark Features:

Our range of apartments include twin three-quarter, double and queen and king bedded options. Each room is furnished to represent a different period style with an eclectic mix of period furniture and exquisite fabrics - capturing the spirit of a bygone era.

Self-catering apartments are fully equipped with a complete kitchenette, which includes a stove, microwave oven and refrigerator. Also included is Satellite television, electric blankets and heaters for winter - and fans for warmer summer days.

The beautifully landscaped garden offers a tranquil getaway from everyday life and features a magnificent swimming pool; a gazebo and terrace - which is suitable for private functions; barbecue facilities and safe off-street parking.

Breakfast is served in the dining room, with its beamed ceilings and open fireplace, offering wholesome country fair. In summer time breakfast is served on the patio or in the lovely gazebo.

"Themed Extravagance"

anonymous

"De Ark Guesthouse makes staying away from home very comfortable and relaxing. Besides the excellently themed rooms, and scrumptious foods, the owners and staff at De Ark make you feel like part of the family.

Thanks for a great stay!"

"An unlikely discovery in the h"

Mrs Milnes

"It exceeded our expectations. We relaxed the moment we arrived and were sorry to leave. We loved the way every tiny little detail had been thought of, right down to a carafe of fortified fruit wine in the bedrooms.

The main house has been beautiully and elegantly restored with everything in period. A feast for the senses. We arrived on a cold winter night to find a blazing fire and the dinner table beautifully set. The breakfast was a veritable banquet.

The staff were friendly and attentive and greeted us with broad smiles whenever they saw us. We will definitely come back."
