White Water Farm: Farmhouse

  • 6 guests
  • 3 bedrooms
  • 2 bathrooms

Dating back to 1846, White Water Farm holds all the historic charm of an idyllic country retreat, while its modern-luxe lodgings (not to mention relative proximity to Cape Town) make it a sought-after destination. Cows, alpacas, springboks, and donkeys roam the 50 hectares of rolling pastures; gardens shaded by oak trees create an enchanting countryscape, while the Overberg mountains loom and the scent of hydrangeas lingers, making stays at this peaceful paradise in the the stuff of storybooks.

There are five accommodations in total: a three-bedroom farmhouse (parts of which date back to 1846), the adjacent Farmhouse Deluxe Suite, three Dairy Suites (in the old dairy building), two Barn Suites (in what was once the herb barn) and the tastefully decorated Gatehouse Cottage. Creature comforts in the rooms include a roaring fireplace, quaint teapots a porch with chairs overlooking the spectacular surrounds. Daily breakfast baskets (included in the rate) comprise fresh fruits, yogurt and cereal.

Good to know
White Water Farm is child-friendly (except for the Gatehouse Cottage) and kids under two stay for free.
