In the countryside but just ten minutes from shops and Supermarkets in nearby towns. Just off a major road between Hermanus and Gansbaai (Goose Bay).
Easy access, pristine Fynbos and a private beach 6kms down the property over the dunes. A good walk or accessible with a 4x4 (not in use at the moment) vehicle.
The OVERBERG region is the gem of the Western cape and very unpoilt. Fishing, horses, mountains and beaches. The best wine farms are on your doorstep and lovely country bistros.
This is a warm and welcoming country-even winter is wonderful with sunny skies and good rainfalls.
Never colder than 5 degrees at night. In the countryside but just ten minutes from shops and Supermarkets in nearby towns. Just off a major road between Hermanus and Gansbaai (Goose Bay).

I am a Travel-bug !I love exploring food markets of the world,and am always ready to hop on a plane and go. No ties anymore make it so easy! I am meticulous about my home and would want to go to another home that is uncluttered and stylish.
Europe is my stomping ground and where I am happiest.
I prefer non- simultaneous swaps and we CANNOT accept swaps for December in to 10th January ANY year as we are full with paying guests.
I recommend Sept- Nov for whale watching and wild flowers and Feb- May for the BEST weather in the Cape .
Look forward to meeting you !Pamela Trevelyan-Bergen ( a Brit in SA) I am a Travel-bug !I love exploring food markets of the world,and am always ready to hop on a plane and go.
