Wolfkop Weekender: Cooked Sister 2016

Posted on Fri June 10, 2016.

What happens when people dressed in Victorian finery take over a town? When fine wine flows right along with fine conversation; when parasols are twirled on the dancefloor; when tea and cupcakes are enjoyed under the wide blue Karoo sky?

A grand experience

Well worth the trip, staying at the Lord Milner takes one back a century. It is like living in a museum, with all the grandeur of days gone by.

5 out of 5 for tasty hot food

5 out of 5 for piping hot food It is so rare that your main course and Malva pudding are delivered piping hot. The Lamb chops were extremely tasty and made more tasty because they were piping hot. Also served on hot plates. The historical ambience and Pub Piano player really add to a most memorable visit. Highly recommended
Another excellent visit to the Lord Milner Hotel

Step back in time and treat yourself to a visit to this historic hotel. I have visited around once a year for the past decade and always enjoy the friendliness and the history of the buildings and surroundings. The Laird's Arms is one of my favorite pubs anywhere in th world.
Fantastic - Must Visit!

This is a must add to your bucket list. Oom Johnny and the red bus made the trip extra special especially the entertainment he provided in the pub. Super friendly service for ALL staff and excellent food. Thanks for making our Christmas eve supper one to remember.
