Winner announced! Congrats to Jeanne Cussen who won this fabulous prize.
All the tranquil beauty of the Overberg is on display at this idyllic 440-hectare farm in the Klein River Valley, surrounded by rolling hills, vineyards and verdant meadows where horses graze. The collection of whitewashed cottages, each imbued with a pared-down rustic charm (and a cosy fireplace), makes this scenic spot a wonderful getaway – no matter the season or occasion.
In addition to the natural beauty and tranquillity, the hands-on hosts are warm and generous. Guests can enjoy fynbos walks, exclusive mountain-biking trails, spa treatments or a session in the wood-fired sauna, an art gallery and a fabulous pool terrace with loungers. There’s also a superb restaurant on the farm, so you don’t have to venture far for a modern country-style feast!
Relax and enjoy
You and your lucky plus-one could immerse yourselves in this heavenly place with a two-night stay, waking up to the soft sounds of farm life and enjoying a leisurely breakfast. The menu ranges from eggs Benedict or shakshuka to a savoury mince omelette with boerenkaas or a truffle and herb rösti with mushrooms and egg.
Although the cottages are self-catering, you will want to return to the restaurant for dinner – the winter menu features pork belly with mustard mash, lamb neck, oxtail ragu or the catch of the day. The winter desserts are irresistible, too – apple pudding, self-saucing chocolate pud or cinnamon-poached fruit. As part of your stay, you’ll receive a complimentary glass of chenin blanc or shiraz wine with your dinner.
