I live on a working apple and pear farm, in the heart of the Elgin Valley. Twelve years ago my husband and I decided to move our little family from city of Cape Town to embark on a life with our kids in the country and have not looked back since. There are many amazing things that I enjoy about being here, but the best is simply living in a beautiful space, we have coined the term Elgin - the Valley of a Thousand Views! I opened my cottages in November 2016 and have thoroughly enjoyed welcoming guests onto our farm to share in our piece of paradise.

The Elgin Valley has much to offer for all ages from outdoor activities like hiking through the natural fynbos vegetation to adventurous Ziplining through the mountains. It is the home of many sought after mountain biking trails as well as trail running events. There are also a variety of gourmet restaurants and farmstall offering the best of locally produced country fare. If quaffing wine while overlooking spectacular scenery of the vineyards and orchards that make up our landscape tickle your fancy, then this is the place for you! Elgin is well knowen for its cool climate wines that are unique to this area. But whether your preference is being active and adventurous or just coming to relax in peace and lap up the traquility surrounding the apple and pear orchards, you are guaranteed to find something that will leave you feeling rejuvenated and coming back again for more!
