The Limestone House is nicely settled between soft white beaches and indigenous flowers, reminding us of a simple life where time is not of the essence.

Enjoy a mouth watering meal during your Western Cape holiday in Paternoster by trying out some of the local seafood, like crayfish, snoek, oysters, harders, hottentot, geelbek, kingklip, and white/black mussels, or, alternatively, you can join the locals for a traditional "packet" of fish and chips.
You can be certain that the picturesque look-and-feel of Paternoster will sweep you away from the moment you enter the town as the soft mist settles over the bay, emphasising the beauty of the traditional fisherman’s architecture. Once here, you will soon learn that Ecotourism plays a significant role with the Columbine Nature Reserve, West Coast Fossil Park, West Coast National Park and Berg River Estuary all in close proximity.
