The location. Perfect valley, on the wine route, views for days. The Milky Way on show at night and sunrises to wake up for. The farm. Cows that graze around you. Birds that serenade you. Trees that whisper in the breeze. Walks and water and tranquility that takes hold of you from the moment you arrive. The accommodation. Protea Cottage was perfect for me but ideal if you're a duo. Comfy bed, I slept like a bear in hibernation. Huge sofa where I lay reading with massive windows to watch the day slip into night. Fired up the BBQ and grilled my dinner. A gorgeous indoor fireplace that added to the lovely ambience. Well kitted out. Great bath tub and shower. Loved it so much I did not want to leave. Conveniences. No phone signal, free WiFi. Great to get off the grid. 15 minute drive through this heavenly valley into Hermanus with a great farm shop just 7 minutes up the road. I took walks around the property. Great to sit and be still or skip into town and go whale spotting. Things close enough when you need them but far enough for serenity and solace. The staff are fantastic. The management terrific. They don't impose, they weren't to extra lengths to help family in the UK with a birthday surprise. Their dogs are so sweet and all in all, I will...
Read moreWe stayed at High Season for our annual Boys on Tour golf weekend, BOT23.
We used Pine Tree Cottage and Oak Tree Cottage , It was fantastic. Sleeping arrangements for 6 per cottage. More than enough space. As we entertained al 12 in one cottage every night for the Dinners.
The Farm felt safe, relaxing and we had fun too.
Everything was neat and clean. Warm water for everyone to shower. I was surprised when loadshedding happened and all of the sudden we had backup power. Which was great, it is only active from 5 pm to 10 am and is not used during the day. We didnt even hear a Generator run.
We used the outside Braai every night and loved the sunset and with it being a working farm, cows passing us every day on their way to the other field. We even had a peacock come and visit us in the morning before we had to start
Thank you Jani...
Read moreWhat a beautiful farm. I am always booking holidays for my family, but this was the best stay ever. The cottage has everything you can think of which makes it easier when travelling with kids including 30 seconds to keep them busy. The cottage is cosy with electric blankets, throws, hot water bottles, heater and fireplace. The shower gel smelled so amazing. Tasneem assisted me with the check-in. She was heartwarming, friendly and very informative. I have been to many establishments and let me tell you the staff is what makes people return. I will definitely return in the near future. It's a 5 star from me and my family. Oh and the views are...
