Charmaine and Paul
Our 4-sleeper Dreamcatcher's View cottage lies in a beautiful mountain valley the indigenous Khoi herders called Xairu! which means 'Paradise'. Nowadays people from all walks of life settle here to experience a less frenetic, more simplistic and back-to-basics way of living in a breathtaking natural environment. Our cottage is safe and homely - it is a nature lover's dream and provides a comfortable setting for an individual getaway, a small family or group of friends (max 4 persons) who are after a taste of rural life. The village is an interesting place to explore, to rest and relax and to absorb the slower-paced ambience, take leisurely walks along the riverbank or hike/cycle the lower slopes of the mountain.
We are both retired teachers who have enjoyed travelling locally and abroad - thoroughly immersing ourselves in the geography and history of our amazing planet. We look forward to sharing our experience of living a semi self-sustaining lifestyle in a spectacular mountain valley village in the Western Province of South Africa with you. We are available via phone or email and can assist in person if needed.
Traditional heritage cob cottages, magnificent mountain views, riverside walks and numerous hiking and cycling routes through forest and fynbos lends the area to eco-tourism. The wood-frame cottage is situated behind the village square and offers a perfect stopover between the Garden Route and Cape Town on the N2 as well as between Oudtshoorn and Cape Town via Route 62 and the R324. 'The uniqueness of where you stay in this accommodation is incredible. I am from South Africa, but have not experienced being in such surroundings before. A beautiful, quiet, friendly town, with the sound of different farm animals throughout the day.' - Guest review
