Caledon springs
At least since the time the Dutch occupied the Cape, the Caledon springs have been used for health reasons. The hotter water is and the more under pressure it is the more it is able to dissolve minerals and gases, hence the claim of hot aprings to possess medicinal properties.
History
Mar 1710 |
Ferdinandus Appel is granted freehold of 12 morgen of land, having indicated that he would build accommodation in Caledon near the warm springs for visitors, who would have to pay. |
1 Mar 1709 |
Ferdinandus Appel is granted by a permit by the authorities to graze his cattle "aan 't warm water", beoming the first official person to occupy the grounds of the Caledon springs, albeit on loan. |
Caledon Casino, Hotel & Spa
We stayed at the Caledon Casino, Hotel & Spa from the 5th to the 8th July 2011, costing R999 a night for a room shared by 2 adults and 2 children. A 50% deposit was required prior to arrival to secure the booking, which we paid with a bank transfer to Tsogo Sun Caledon PTY (Ltd), Nedbank (we settled the balance with a credit card payment).
Cancellations
The Caledon Hotel allowed cancellations as follows:
- cancellation more than 30 calendar days prior to arrival - entitled to 100% refund;
- cancellation 21 to 30 calendar days prior to arrival - entitled to a 75% refund;
- cancellation 8 to 20 calendar days prior to arrival - entitled to a 50% refund;
- cancellation 3 to 7 calendar days prior to arrival - entitled to a 25% refund;
- cancellation 2 days or less prior to arrival: entitled to no refund.
Check-in time
Check in was allowed from 14:00, and check-out had to occur before 10:00.
Spring baths
The spring baths were closed on Mondays, so we carefully chose our dates.
