A very nice country-escape for a mountain biker. The cottage is on the Hermanus cycle route and i had a great ride on the farm passing apple trees, dams and some single track routes at the foot of Babylon’s Tower Mountain. The cottage is spacious and was perfect for our family of 4 – Also a pet-friendly spot and totally off the grid – a great weekend away

I took my parents and hound to this beautiful spot for two nights to celebrate my birthday. We all absolutely loved it. The cottage has everything you need – comfy, clean beds and couches, well-equipped kitchen. I wasn’t brave enough to try the slightly exposed outside hot shower, but my dad loved it. The trails within spitting distance of the cottage are HEAVEN for trail runners and trail-running hounds. We liked the idea of top wine farms on our doorstep but opted not to leave the farm at all – between the walks, runs, braai’s and lazing on the sunny stoep, the time flew by. I’ll definately be back. – Nicola Allen
