Breakfasts are served under a vine-covered patio or in the Cape Dutch home called Twyfeling.



Oortuiging (Conviction) is our 1860’s luxury cottage. It has two en-suite bedrooms, a lounge, a kitchen and a dining room. It has its own pool and private garden. Oortuiging can sleep three but takes two in spacious luxury.



Gelatenheid (Equanimity) is our largest (220 square metre) guesthouse - a double storey just for two. The en-suite loft bedroom with king size bed, dressing and living room area opens onto an upstairs verandah with special views over the mountains and vineyards. There is a romantic bath under the trees with a heated towel rail. Downstairs are a kitchen and a dining area overlooking a large pool and private garden.



Vreugde (Joy) sleeps two in twin three-quarter beds, or a king size bed on prior notice. The bath and shower are separate, there is a small kitchenette and French doors open onto a wide veranda with beautiful garden and private pool. One can lounge on the leather sofa on the porch listening to the birds and the singing of the fountain. This is a very intimate private place.



Uitsig (View) sleeps two in a king-size bed or, if previously requested, in twin three-quarter beds. The bath and shower are separate and French doors open onto a sun-baked balcony with a lovely view of the mountains.  This private, upstairs suite is wonderfully comfortable. Uitsig shares a large solar heated pool and garden with Twyfeling.



Twyfeling (Doubting) is a gracious Cape Dutch style house with large living rooms and two large bedroom suites both of which sleep two in a king-size bed or, if previously requested, in twin three-quarter beds.  Twyfeling shares a large solar heated pool and garden with Uitsig.
