Zelf-Zichricht (familie-eenheden vanaf R 700)
R 700

Set in the foothills of the majestic Swartberg range, in the shadow of the legendary Towerkop Peaks, are the three stylishly renovated, traditional worker's cottages. The farmland is surrounded by neatly tended vineyards, orchards and lucerne fields of neighbouring farmers and the homestead looks out onto the hills of a private game farm.

Each cottage has a comfortably appointed double bedroom with an en-suite shower room, a fully equipped kitchen, a sitting room and a private patio. All linen, towels, crockery, cutlery and kitchen utensils are provided. The cottages are each equipped with a small fridge and a stove. A hearty farm breakfast or a delicious dinner will be provided with pleasure, by prior arrangement. Alternatively a hamper can be arranged with locally sourced ingredients.

The 57 ha farmland is a scenic and tranquil haven for succulent Karoo vegetation and a stroll or hike in any direction will reward the walker with an astonishing diversity of plant life unique to the area. A pleasant 10 km drive leads to the village of Ladismith where you will find your everyday needs.

Interesting walking trails and challenging cycling routes are plentiful in the area. Nearby towns of Barrydale and Calitzdorp are renowned for their ports, brandies and wine. The nearby Seweweekspoort, an awe-inspiring passage between imposing cliffs and peaks, is a World Heritage Site worth exploring.

Lovely weekend getaway by

We stayed in the Blue cottage, which was quaint and cosy, with a decent indoor fireplace. The cottage was furnished with rarely-seen attention to detail and provided everything we needed for a weekend stay. It's a great place to go if you need a little peace and quiet, and the hosts are friendly and generous. The fact that they supplied fresh fruit and milk was amazingly thoughtful.

Establishment's response:

Hi David and Jessica,
Many thanks for your great review! So glad you enjoyed your short time with us, please visit us again soon, for a longer time! Spring (Sept/Oct) is beautiful, ideal for long lazy hikes and fascinating birding!
Regards,
Murray



Absolutely Beautiful! by

This is such a beautiful property. The cottage I stayed in (the green cottage) was a gorgeous little self-contained unit that was wonderfully maintained and offered everything I needed for my 'I want to be alone', self catering holiday. What I loved most was the enchanting patio. One step off it and you're on the hill where you can take a lovely walk up a gentle slope. The only reason I didn't give comfort a resounding 5 stars was because I struggled to get cold water out of the basin taps in both the kitchen and bathroom...only hot. But the cold water in the shower was fine. I highly recommend Skilpadkloof - thank you so much Murray for an absolutely wonderful stay.
