| Adley
House in Oudtshoorn is a magnificent Victorian
home and was built in 1905 by Sidney Herbert Adley during
the "Ostrich Feather Boom".
During the Second World War this magnificent Victorian
home was bequeathed in 1948 to the orphans of the War.
Mrs Macmoran tended 16 Polish orphans until they completed
high school in the early sixties. It was then sold.
Hilda and Pieter Retief bought Adley House in 1989
and undertook the arduous task of restoration - Hilda
started a B&B in 1994 which is now a true guest
house - a retreat for you to enjoy - in true Victorian
style.
They manage Adley House personally and as true South
Africans and residents in Oudtshoorn for over thirty
years, they are able to not only give you a warm welcome
and real South African hospitality, but also answer
all the questions you may have.

Hilda bakes fresh bread or "Vetkoek" every
morning - and in the evening, on request, we may braai
(barbecue) or you can have a four course meal - real
South African style. Ostrich steaks are our speciality!
