Robertson Backpackers

Nestled between the Langeberg Mountains and the Great Breede River lies the quaint town of Robertson, well known for its thoroughbred race horses and superb wine farms. Here you will find the warm and friendly hospitality of Robertson Backpackers.

Your well-travelled hosts, Kevin and Lynda, have turned an old Victorian farmhouse, dating back to the 1880's, into a comfortable and spacious backpackers. The rooms are big and airy with high ceilings and all the beds have comfortable duvets and pillows.

Free wifi throughout the backpackers

The lush garden with stunning mountain views comes alive at night with intimate lamps and lanterns. The Moroccan room, has a certain mystique about it, with its low couches and cushions, candles, lanterns, incense and fireplace - a great place to have a drink, smoke a Hubbly Bubbly and listen to cool African sounds. Only a two-hour drive away from Cape Town and with lots to do in the area you will want to stay longer. So if you want to get away from the rat race or indulge in some country activities, then this is the place to be.

The rooms range from affordable shared dormitories to beautiful garden en-suite rooms. There are plenty of communal lounges and a TV room with DStv. Guests have full use of the very sociable braai outside and a fireplace inside for those chilly winter nights.
The well equipped kitchen is also available for the guests to use or breakfast can be ordered on request.

The Double - and Quad Room as well as the Dormitory share the use of a communal bathrooms.

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Robertson Backpackers - such a relaxed atmosphere, lovely setting, and comfortable clean accommodation. A well-run, hospitable establishment all in all. We just wish we could have stayed on longer to really enjoy it all...and have more time to chill out in the Moroccan room, and time to appreciate the garden. Definitely recommended!"
