An Established Hospitality Landmark on Route 62 with Strong Local and Traveller Appeal

Well positioned on the iconic Route 62, this long-standing hospitality property offers an opportunity to step into an established operation that forms part of Barrydale’s social and cultural fabric.

Located in the heart of Barrydale, this well-known lodge, restaurant and pub has operated successfully for more than two decades and is recognized as a popular gathering place for locals, travelers and touring groups. The business is offered as a going concern (non-VAT registered) and includes the property, existing business operations, furniture, equipment, inventory and associated digital presence.

The property extends to approximately 600 m² and is configured to support both accommodation and hospitality use. The on-site lodge accommodates up to twelve guests across three well-appointed en suite rooms, each offering direct access to the garden. Two of the rooms include kitchenettes suited to self-catering stays, while the third opens onto a patio area with outdoor seating. In total, the property includes five bathrooms, as well as a flexible studio space that may be used as an office, manager’s accommodation or additional support area.

Hospitality facilities include a fully equipped commercial kitchen, laundry and storage areas that support restaurant and pub operations. Indoor and outdoor seating areas allow for year-round use, with a fireplace providing warmth during cooler months and shaded garden areas offering relaxed outdoor dining in summer. A saltwater swimming pool adds to the guest experience, while fibre connectivity, an alarm system, generator and wheelchair access support daily operations.

The business currently trades seven days a week and holds a valid liquor licence. Its position as a late-operating venue contributes to its popularity within the area, alongside regular events and live entertainment that form part of the venue’s character. Accommodation and hospitality activities provide multiple income streams, subject to operational management.

Barrydale continues to attract visitors drawn to its creative community, scenic setting and position along one of South Africa’s most travelled tourism routes. This offering presents an opportunity to acquire a well-established hospitality property with an existing operational footprint, positioned for continued use or further development within the Route 62 tourism landscape.
