Unique special plot of land with crazy views! Loads of space to be explored ! Feel free to roam around the nursery, check out the paragliding site or explore the paths we have started clearing on the 6 hectares.

Has a lovely bath and is lite up with candles at night. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you would need. From coffee plunger to toastie machine. Gas oven and stove.

Where you’ll be

Hoekwil, Western Cape, South Africa

I grew up in Hoekwil and just love the fact that’s it’s a country village, slow paced and rural.
Hoekwil has a few great options for food, drinks and entertainment.
Our units are a 2 minute drive away from the quiet village of Hoekwil which has a micro brewery, ebike / scooter hire. SUP and surfboard hire. A country cafe serving the best cheesecake and freshly roasted coffee. Mrs B’s gets up early most mornings and bakes fresh pastries.( except on Mondays and Tuesdays)
Merchant and Maiden has THE BEST pizza and craft gin distillery.
