About Bathurst

Bathurst is a historic and quaint village situated in the Eastern Cape, just a short drive inland from the popular coastal town of Port Alfred. Founded in 1820 as a supply depot for British settlers, it lies nestled in the lush, rolling hills of the Albany district, an area renowned for its agricultural bounty and rich history.

The village is a living monument to the 1820 Settlers, with many of its original buildings still standing and in use today. This well-preserved heritage, combined with its tranquil, country atmosphere, makes Bathurst a unique and fascinating destination.

Surrounded by citrus farms, pineapple plantations, and cattle pastures, Bathurst offers a peaceful rural escape with easy access to the beaches and waterways of the Sunshine Coast. Its blend of history, agriculture, and rustic charm continues to captivate visitors.
