Description

De Melkportaal Cottage is a cosy self-catering cottage on a working dairy farm approximately 19 km from Bredasdorp.

Surrounded by gum trees and overlooking the Soetmuisberg, the cottage is off the grid, and is powered by gas, paraffin, and has a wood-burning donkey for hot water.

The cottage can accommodate 4 adults and a child, and comprises 1 bedroom with a double bed and a bathroom with a bath and a shower. A double sleeper couch is available in the living area, and a cot is available on request. For convenience linen and towels are provided, and guests please need to bring their own swimming towels.

The open-plan kitchen is equipped with a gas stove, a gas fridge, tea- and coffee-making facilities, as well as an indoor fireplace, and meals can be enjoyed at the dining table. Paraffin lamps are also provided.

Glass stacking doors open the bedroom, living area and bathroom to a deck that overlooks the splash pool and firepit. The splash pool can also be heated by the wood-burning donkey. Wood, firelighters and matches are provided. The perimeter is enclosed, and pets are welcome. Please note, there is a gravel road leading to the accommodation.

The farm offers various activities such as walking, mountain biking, birdwatching and canoeing. Guests can also stop by the dairy to collect a ration of fresh milk, and with prior arrangement, children can sign up for a crash course in dairy farming.

Idyllic. It was very relaxing to break away from the hustle and bustle of the city and the peace and quiet without electricity was idyllic.
