There is an indoor fireplace and an outdoor fireplace with a braai. The cottage has free Wi-Fi.
Relax in your own private wood-fired Kol-Kol hot tub, soaking in the steaming water on a chilly evening. Add a crackling fire, an endless starry sky and a glass of wine. From the front stoep with veranda and braai you have a beautiful view over the vineyards and the Langeberge.
At your cottage there will be two mountain bikes for riding on the farm and one kayak for fishing or canoeing on dam 200m away.
Activities
The area offers many outdoor activities, arts and crafts, tranquillity and relaxation. Surrounded by mountain trails, fruit orchards, olive groves and vineyards, the village has maintained a rural peaceful ambience which is an inspiration to artists.
There are walking/hiking trails, mountain biking, bird watching in Vrolijkheid Nature Reserve, a pottery studio, art galleries, cob house building and enjoyable meals and chats at one of our coffee shops, restaurants or pubs.
The famous donkey santuary ‘Eseltjiesrus' is situated 1km from the farm where you are able to feed, interact and maybe even adopt one of the donkeys. Situated 16km from the farm is the R62 wine route where you will be able to taste and enjoy the various wine that make the Breede Valley so popular.
The most spectacular hiking trail is the Boesmanskloof trail from McGregor to Greyton. There is so much that the area offers from those wanting to relax to those seeking an adventure. Viljoendrift, another working wine farm in the area, offer a slow boat cruise up and down the Breede River. This is always a must when visiting the valley.

Loadshedding Facilities
What is loadshedding? It refers to the temporary suspension of electricity provided by Eskom, South Africa's electricity provider, to reduce consumption and thereby the load on the national grid. To compensate, South African property owners are turning to solar power, inverters with backup batteries or in some cases generators to keep the power on, wherever feasible.
