Olive Stone Farm Cottage

Could anything be cosier than a stone cottage with a fireplace, surrounded by olive trees and the majestic Langeberg Mountains? That’s what you’ll find at Olive Stone Farm, a working (you guessed it) olive farm in the picturesque town of Montagu, famous for its healing hot mineral springs, quaint shops, delicious wines, ancient rock formations and spectacular scenery.

Stay in one of three gorgeous, off-the-grid cottages made entirely out of locally sourced stone and nestled amongst the swaying olive trees. Each cottage boasts its own indoor fireplace, an indoor and outdoor shower, a natural plunge pool and a private hot tub, plus sun loungers, daybeds, electric blankets and a host of other luxuries, comforts and personal touches.

Good to know

Guests are welcome to make use of the vegetable and salad garden. Children and pets are only allowed with prior arrangement.
