Location: Swellendam, Western Cape, South Africa, Africa (3 Hours Drive from Cape Town - Direction of the Garden Route)
Accommodations: House, 6 Bedrooms + Loft, 5 Baths (Sleeps 14-17)
This well equipped property, which sleeps 14+ people, is a wonderful breakaway for large families or groups of friends. As well as the well-appointed house with 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, there is a separate, self-contained cottage with 2 en-suite bedrooms and a living area with a sleeper couch.
Situated on the banks of the Breede River and close to the historic little village of Malgas, the property has spectacular views and is on one of the best spots along the river.
Kayaking in the early mornings, skiing or tubing during warm summer days, quad biking on the small farm roads, fishing, bird watching, or just walking along the banks of the river, are
some of the many activities that can be enjoyed.
Most evenings are pleasant and a boma fire provides an unforgettable experience, while gazing at the clear night skies. In winter, a large indoor fireplace creates a cozy atmosphere
inside the double volume house.
