Ideally located on the Route 62, this working olive farm is like a centre fold in a Country Living magazine. Cobbled walkways lined with rose bushes and impeccably trimmed lavender. Pristine surroundings, lush green mountains and valley as a setting for this immaculate boutique hotel of earthen colours and consummate elegance.
Described one would think, pretentious, but in fact, a more homely affair with a hint of class and indulgence to welcome you instead.
Ideally located in Oudtshoorn and for the rest of the Garden Route, this hotel offers a charmed stay in luxury accommodation and don't forget the view and award-winning restaurant.
