Tankwa Lodge

When entering the Tankwa Lodge in Calvinia, visitors are still welcomed with true warm country hospitality. Formed in 1851 on the Oorlogskloof River and named after religious reformer Johan Calvin, Calvinia lies at the foot of the dolerite-topped Hantam Moutains. Hantam being a Khoi word meaning where the red bulbs grow. It is the regions key growth point and one of the countrys largest wool-producing areas.

The Lodge offers accommodation in 25 comfortable rooms all with en-suite showers and bathrooms. Seven of the rooms are air-conditioned, and the other 18 rooms have fans.

There is a splash pool for guests to cool off in the summer heat. In addition, the lodge has a restaurant and bar which is independently owned and operated, a beer garden and secure parking.
