    This is truly a magnificent place to stay. The view is exceptional with the animals (bisons, zebras, kudus,...) coming to drink on the lake. It is nice to have a braai in the evening, fire up the hottub and see the sun go down with the animals in...

    It was amazing, gorgeous location, remote and you need to take what you need with you but we had been prepared for that by hosts. Great to see the buffalo, zebra and deer at the watering hole.

    Oh my word, the place is amazing. It's reminded me of home in the Eastern Cape. The place is home away from home. My partner and I wanted to relax and rejuvenate, we got that and more. The jacuzzi is amazing. We were welcomed with warmth by our...

    This Airbnb was by far the most beautiful place we’ve ever stayed. Surrounded by tranquility and stunning nature, we often had the chance to watch wildlife grazing near the waterhole, including groups of impalas, zebras, buffalos, and more. We...

Central to the Garden Route in South Africa between Mossel Bay and George. Perfect for a stopover, just 15min from the N2. If you are a nature lover, it is just the place for you. The best of both worlds- away from the holiday buzz but only a short drive to popular beaches Hartenbos and Diaz in Mossel bay . We are a functional farm (expect some farming traffic) that is partly leased to a farming company that cultivate Macadamia nuts and Avocados. We are also home to disease free buffalo, a variety of antelope, zebras, a couple of sheep and very old horse.
I would love to host you ! I love it when guest leave totally recharged and happy and especially if they return year after year. I am a professional photographer, daughter of a farmer and entrepreneur. My favorites include: Walks in nature, learning about new cultures , live music and a Mojito with sundown now and again. Inspired to to live a green life by reducing waste, making compost and recycling.
We are situated just 15 min outside of the quaint town Groot-Brakrivier with lots of coffee shops, art and everything you need, including a fantastic tourism office. Follow the Fragrance Route to the farm with a couple of stops along the way: Protea's, Friemersheim settlement, coffee, birding and MTB cycling routes.
