Great place for kids and adults alike with horse riding and many other activities to do. One can also sign up for lessons. A worthwhile place to spend a relaxing day.

Came across the Oude Molen website. It looked very interesting. Checked Google if it was open around lunchtime on Mondays. Yes! Decided to pop in for a cup of coffee, maybe more, maybe purchase some fresh produce. Expected a vibrant creative arty inspiring vibe. The reality? Its mostly a dump. Dilapidated buildings. Except for a bright blue swimming pool surrounded by industrial vibacrete. Not much "eco" to be seen, but a lot of car wrecks and other ugly discarded junk. As visitors we were studiously ignored. People driving around the compound with cigarettes hanging out their mouths provided the ambience. The place, and the location has absolutely enormous potential. For an initiative that started back in 1997 its certainly going nowhere fast. A depressing disappointment. The place should be handed over to an initiative that will do something worthwhile with it.
Five stars for a great kid-friendly place. We had coffee and toasties alfresco in the garden area outside the coffeeshop. There were little ones playing along with a host of chickens sharing the space. The waiter was friendly and helpful and overall it's a lovely hidden gem.
A rural environment in Cape Town, an ideal place in Cape Town to introduce children to love and appreciate activities taking place in rural areas to sustain urban life.
No one expect this oasis in the middle of suburbs. There is a diverse array of activities, businesses, local schools and community programmes. Oude Moulen is well know for the horses. Horse riding is offered as well as lessons. It's worth a drive through
Wow! What a great venue to be.ppl very friendly and beautiful atmosphere
Lovely place to take the kids! Shaded play area and enjoyable pony rides for the kids and adults
I was mildly surprised by what this place had to offer. The prices are a bit extravagant, especially for the food - that's rustic at best. Charging by the hour for a play area is totally ridiculous, rather charge a nominal fee of say R30 per child, with family rates if you have more than 2 kids.
