Description

Relax and unwind after your travels, with a sun downer on your private stoep or our boma overlooking the village, whilst watching the moon rising over the Swartberg, and relishing in the peace and tranquillity that surrounds you as the night’s sky draws your eye to the heavens as the sun sets.
Wake up and enjoy your provided health breakfast provisions on your stoep, shared with Familiar Chats, Cape Buntings and various sunbirds, as well as being in the enviable position to watch the sun rising up over the Swartberg whilst listening for the call of owls before dawn.
