William and Karin welcome you to Keisie Cottages, cosy farm holiday self-catering mountain cottages on a beautiful fruit and wine farm in the Keisie Valley, 20 km outside of Montagu. Our farm is just below the world famous tractor ride on Protea Farm.

Keisie means Pretty Water in San, and the Keisie Valley is renowned for the flavour and quality of its fruits and wines.

The farm is called Vredendal, which means Peace in the Valley and it certainly is very peaceful here. We grow grapes, quinces and gooseberries and in season you can pick and eat straight from the trees, or watch us harvesting.

We have a lovely swimming pool with a wooden deck and gazebo, surrounded by two hectares of roses . Stroll around our herb garden and help yourself to herbs for your salad or potjiekos. Try our home made jams. A real farm stay close enough to Montagu to enjoy the Hot Springs and wine routes and wonderful restaurants that Montagu has to offer, as well.

There are lovely hikes, including a lovely hike to our rock pools (very rough) and paths that can be used for mountain biking. The mountain views are stunning.

We have three charming restored farm cottages, next to each other, and one larger Gooseberry house which is great for bigger families and very private. Each cottage is a quaint, cosy environment with a traditional fireplace to ward off those chilly Cape winter nights. All linen provided.

The Keisie Valley is the perfect retreat. There is no cell phone reception and there are no TVs in the cottages. Towels are provided. Your chance to introduce your kids to the real world. They can hike, bike, or just play outside!

Relaxing weekend by

Great place for a getaway. We would have loved to have stayed longer and maybe helped out on the farm. We took our two dogs with us and they thoughly enjoyed their stay, epecially going walking with Aqua and swimming. Toni and Mike are great hosts and very friendly. The cottages are quite close together (three in a row) so its not as private as we thought. However this was not a problem even though all the cottages were booked out during our stay. We did not notice the neighbours and if going away in a group the setup would be perfect. The dam is more a small pool but was great to dip into after a hike. The surrounding area is full of things to do and we took full advantage of the wine tasting and hiking (where dogs were allowed). We would stay again.

Reply from Toni 'It's a pleasure having dogs when they are well-behaved and friendly like these were. The reason why they never noticed the neighbours was because we have screens in between the cottages. If one really wants privacy then Keisie Cottage is all by itself and has a large stoep with beautiful views of the valley. We encourage people who want peace and quiet.' Thanks Toni


Excellent by

Very nice and relaxing place with very hospitable hosts. Lovely area with great views all round. Perfect to get away from it all.


Boomslang by

On Friday evening from 5pm to 7: 30 pm we were unsettled by the presence of a Boomslang that was after birds nests in the verandah roof despite the attention of 2 Cape Robins and a local who chased it away.It reappeared again later and disappeared onto the roof maybe the creeper around the roof needs to be removed so that it is not so snake friendly.


Post Christmas break with family by

choosing Gooseberry House was the best thing we could have done the house is lovely with so much space, bedrooms are large with good quality duvets, pillows and bed linens, the kitchen is excellent with a full size cooker, huge refrigerator and plenty of storage space, the kitchen was fully equipped with numerous pans and plenty of crockery, the garden at the house is lovely as is the beautiful rose garden next to the pool - wonderful roses of many hues and perfumes, the pool was enjoyed by the youngest member who would have been happy to stay in the pool for ever did wander around the vegetable and herb growing area which was very interesting it was great to have such a lovely sized family table in the braai area this was very well used by us - perfect many birds visited and as the garden has so many different types of flowers and shrubs it will attract many varieties of birds a lovely stay in a beautiful setting - thank you for sharing this with us


Lovely stay hidden away in the mountians by

Hidden away in the mountians, quiet, peaceful and relaxing with a very friendly host! Accomodation was comfortable! What a lovely experience!


Sunsets on the stoep by

Loved the quiet, sunsets, swimming pool, cumfy couch on the stoep, mostly well equipped kitchen, lots of roses and other flowers dassies playing in the rocks, tractor going about its business and entertaining the little kids, friendly host. To improve : a pair of kitchen scissors would be lovely! Oiling the door hinges would be nice.
