“Where does one start with a review of this wonderful place?
The farm is a close drive from Cape Town so for a weekend away it’s perfect. It’s proper “plaaslewe” , with all the bells and whistles you’d expect on a working farm. So for the kids, they were away from screens and absolutely loved the open spaces, animals, tractors and even riding on the back of the farmer’s bakkie! The old farmhouse is beautifully restored and it’s all in the details that got me! Freshly baked bread, towels and linen fit for a queen, fresh jam, butter and even wine for you to enjoy. Electricity during load-shedding, everything you would need in a kitchen and also something I always look for, beautiful wine glasses for that glass of wine on the “stoep” whilst taking in the absolutely breathtaking views.

Such a wonderful couple that welcomes you into their home and also hearts and you can really feel that this is not just another holiday home, their hearts have really been put in here! This is a place you will never forget and will want to return to!”- Salome Zietsman

Guest review

“Excellent!!! Perfect!!!! Great Value!!!! This is just what our souls needed! We stayed in the Farm stay cottage! We were welcomed with a personalised note and special treats for both me and my husband and even our little girl! Lida, was such a great host! She prepared the unit with everything we can possibly need and made sure that we were comfortable and looked after in every way possible!
The unit is so beautiful and spacious, great for a small family for a weekend or week away! The unit and location offer you relaxation and great views while having a cup of coffee or just taking a walk! They have great facilities, outside braai, or indoor braai, a fully equipped kitchen and such a nice lounge space! There is so much I can say about our weekend, but ultimately, we loved being there!

We will definitely be back and recommend the Dassenheuwel Farm stay cottages! Lida and her team are great hosts!”- Sarnia Schoeman

Guest review

“Dassenheuwel farm stay is a home away from home. The hosts (Kobus & Lida) are extremely thoughtful. From luxurious bedding to a camper cot for babies and toys for the kids. The freshly baked bread and Swartland Merlot surely was a welcome and tasty surprise. And the surroundings speak of tranquillity. We had a wonderful time and will surely visit again”- Amanda Gower
