I recently had the unexpected opportunity to drop in on the Calitzdorp Spa while meandering through the Klein Karoo near Oudtshoorn. The Spa is something of an oasis in the semi arid region.
The Spa turned out to be an ideal place to rest up and relax after tiring road trip with a two large swimming pools as well as naturally heated pools and Roman baths.
We chose a mountain cottage and were pleasantly surprised to see Springbok grazing nearby. The surroundings are tranquil with a river running nearby, a bird hide and nearby hiking trail.
Although the accommodation was basic it was matched by the competitive low pricing. Given the available facilities I'd recommend a stop. It was within easy range of the Cango Caves which is also well worth the visit.
Situated along Route 62, itself a wonderful driving route it is also around two hours away from the Garden Route via the Outeniqua Pass. If you're exploring the Western Cape, along either route, this is definitely a place to consider visiting.
