Duikersdrift Winelands Country Escape, Tulbagh

Duikersdrift is a working farm in the age-old Cape tradition, with a small vineyard and olive orchard and paddocks with horses, donkeys, cows and amazing birdlife. Being surrounded by mountain wilderness, there are also a number of wild small animal species that call the farm home. Visitors to the guesthouse are treated to gorgeous mountain views, laid back farm-style living, and a range of on- and off-site activities that will cater to most interests. Knowledgeable guides lead guests on tours to the west coast, Cape Town and the surrounding wine valleys, as well as the cultural, historical and viticultural highlights of the Tulbagh Valley itself. The farm-style Obiqua Café Restaurant caters to all tastes with wholesome meals while the more adventurous can take a mountain bike and picnic on the farm. There is a farm-to-table philosophy with the olive grove providing excellent extra virgin olive oil and table-olive products. The Shiraz vineyard also produces a very good wine.

The tranquil pool area overlooks the impressive Saronsberg Mountain that dominates the western skyline and is the perfect spot to watch the sun go down. Guests and visitors can make use of the full range of activities such as picnicking, hiking, mountain biking, fishing, bird-watching and viewing & feeding of the farm animals.
There is also an extensive recreational area for children. Duikersdrift is a child-friendly establishment.

    “Peaceful luxury stay in a beautiful mountain view setting. The cottage was spacious very comfortable with every facility and amazing picture window with view of the valley and mountains beyond. So quiet only noise is from the guinea fowl. A little bonus is the laid out path round the property to run or walk. The restaurant on site is great quality and value for money as demonstrated by so many locals using it creating a warm friendly atmosphere. Shane and Shayne make wonderful host and nothing is too much trouble for them”
