Zorgvliet Herenhuis 1692 Restaurant
The original manor house on the Zorgvliet farm underwent a complete transformation to restore the old house to its former glory and it currently houses the Zorgvliet Herenhuis restaurant. The original homestead was saved from complete decay and specific attention was given to the conservation of existing structures.
The preservation of the ceilings, which were restored after exhaustive efforts, has lend a unique atmosphere to the restaurant. The Herenhuis now once again boasts with a thatch roof and has recaptured the romantic facade of years gone by. The driveway has been replanted with date palms to restore the original look of the house.
The previous time that the manor house was restored so meticulously was in 1860 after the house was virtually destroyed in a fire. The farm then belonged to Christiaan Frederik Beyers, father of the Boer General CF Beyers, who was born in the house in 1869 and later became the owner of the farm. |
