De Hoop Village is a highly recommended property for self catering in De Hoop for anyone visiting the Cape Overberg region.
About De Hoop Village
De Hoop Village offers accommodation in nine lovely cottages in De Hoop Nature Reserve. This World Heritage Site offers the finest whale viewing in Southern Africa. The Marine Protected Area, which extends five kilometres out to sea, is one of the largest marine protected areas in Africa, providing a sanctuary for a vast array of marine life.
Self Catering Accommodation
De Hoop Village at the Opstal offers nine stunning cottages each white washed, fisherman style houses. Each cottage sleeps six guests in three bedrooms. One of the bedrooms has a double bed or twin beds, the second room has two single beds and the third room has bunk beds. There is one bathroom with a shower and complimentary toiletries.
The cottages have an open plan living area and kitchen with a dining table. The kitchen has a kettle, toaster, fridge / freezer, stove / oven, crockery / cutlary etc.
Outside there are braai facilities.
The Area
Situated in the Overberg region near the southern tip of Africa, this very special reserve is under three hours from Cape Town. It is located near Arniston, Swellendam and the Breede River.
Experience & Explore
Interpretative walks through the fynbos to the rock pools and guided bird walks are just some of the activities available, as well as whale watching and game viewing. The magnificent night skies lend themselves to star and constellation identification.
Four mountain bike trails traverse the reserve allowing one to experience the full biodiversity of De Hoop. The recently introduced walking trail needs to be booked in advance and covers a similar coastline to the well established ‘Whale Trail.'
On Site Facilities
The Fig Tree Restaurant is quite the place to be and therefore packed in high season especially. Please ensure that you book a table for dinner to secure your spot on arrival or the day before.
The curio shop sells wood, firelighters and meat but it really is a gift shop and not a food shop. Firewood can be purchased at our Curio Shop or you are welcome to bring your own.
Activities & Attractions
Run, hike or bike the trails at De Hoop. The trails at De Hoop Nature Reserve will unlock much more than your online app rewards this season, with 5 unique trails to choose from, ranging from a leisurely 12km, to a more challenging 55km route for the truly experienced – there is something for everyone.
Whale Watching
Every year, some 40% of the world's southern right whales come to these shores to breed. Females and their calves swim in the clear waters, while males put on spectacular displays. These endangered mammals ensure that the De Hoop Reserve in South Africa, is one of the world's best land based whale watching areas.
As a marine reserve and World Heritage Site, De Hoop guarantees a safe nursery for these pods of visiting cetaceans. They come so close to the shore that visitors can relax on the unspoilt sand dunes, watching in awe as these beautiful creatures calve, blow, breach and belly-flop.
