Ta Malas self catering accommodation in Prince Albert offers guests the perfect base to explore this charming Karoo town on foot. With most amenities just a short stroll away, you can start your day with a fresh brew from a local coffee shop or bakery, browse boutique stores for unique finds, stock up with fresh local produce from the farm delis and enjoy lunch at one of the town’s popular restaurants. Culture lovers can immerse themselves in history at the Fransie Pienaar Museum or catch a performance at the local Showroom theatre – all without needing to drive.
