Kwantu, meaning "together" or "place of gathering" in Xhosa, a local language, was named by Lieutenant Richard Daniel, leader of the Daniel party of the British 1820 Settlers, who named the village after his hometown of Sidbury, Devonshire.
Nestled in the heart of Kwantu Game Reserve, lies this historic village, which was founded by pioneering British Settlers in the early 19th century. This picturesque village played a pivotal role in the establishment of a new life in Africa. The cries of the settlers echoed across the plains as they battled against the indigenous Bushmen, Hottentots, and Xhosa tribes.
Built to support the sheep farming community, Sidbury is home to one of the oldest Anglican churches in South Africa, St. Peter's Church, dating back to 1838. The village's rich history is intertwined with tales of adventure and survival, as weary travelers and locals alike shared stories of blood-curdling encounters with lions, leopards, and elephants at the popular stopover, Pollards Inn, on the Wagon route that ran north from Algoa Bay (now Port Elizabeth).
