Eikelaan Farm Cottages is a highly recommended property for self catering in Tulbagh for anyone visiting the Cape Winelands region.
An outing to Eikelaan is viewed as a complete ‘break from reality' and a total switch off from the buzz of the city life – great for re charging the batteries and clearing the mind. The silence, peace and tranquility should leave you feeling totally relaxed, refreshed and rejuvenated.
On offer at this neat working farm with wheat, vines, olives, sheep and cattle are three luxury self-catering cottages all fronted by an open vista of green fields merging into blue mountains – an appealing contrast of the soft and rugged.
The cottages are light and airy, fully equipped and decorated in natural hues and textures. Wide windows and double doors drench the interior in light, terracotta floors inject the rustic country edge, offset by warm sisal mats, natural cream curtains, crisp white linen and thick feather down duvets.
All have indoor fireplaces, making for cozy winters in a corner of the world where snow on the nearby mountains isn't uncommon. On the other hand, if you're dropping in during the summer months you'll be thrilled to know the units have air-con and overhead fans, as well as easy access to a swimming pool (with lapa).
Stepping outside, the cottages all have tiled patios and a broad stretch of green lawn, each with its own private braai.
Venturing further afield, the farm has three dams for dunking and fishing for bass, plenty of wide open space for bracing walks between high tea and dinner, cycling, as well as a barnyard of farm animals and nervous buck roaming the fields.
A visit to the well known Church Street is highly recommended, this historic street has more heritage monuments in one street than anywhere else in South Africa. Tulbagh also offers excellent restaurants, olive estates, museums, arts and craft shops and numerous wine cellars. For the more adventurous, there are 4x4 routes, horse riding, MTB and hiking trails.
For a comfortable and undemanding weekend in the country that will suit both discerning locals and tourists, Eikelaan is the way to go.
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.

We really enjoyed the peaceful farm environment. Big, open spaces for the kids to roam. They were lucky enough to catch a tractor ride and visit the newborn lambs in the barn.
