At The Rest we have two rustic, family-sized, self-catering cottages available on the farm. We also have two cute caravans that are fully equipped. In the summer months, camping is a fun and good value option. Cosy, cute, comfortable! A true farm-stay experience!

This is the perfect holiday destination for a family with young kids who want to experience farm life and take some time away from the digital distractions of the city.  It is also a lovely escape for a couple who need time to reconnect with each other.  For a solo getaway to do some thinking, work on a project or heal (we offer family constellations sessions on the farm) it can be a life-changing experience.

We experience the seasons acutely up in the mountains. Snow is common in winter and summer floods create dramatic patterns in the landscape. The spring is celebrated with beautiful veld flowers and the fruit trees are their best as they display their blossoms. While we rarely experience the searing heat of the lowlands, hot summer days are enjoyed in the river sheltered by the poplar grove. Autumns are dramatic, as the forest turns from green to red, gold and orange.  

Homemade bread, farm-style meals, grass-fed Karoochoice meat, milk and yogurt from our Jersey cow and eggs (when available) can be purchased on the farm (bread and meals need time to make).

Our cottages are comfortable and cozy, with everything you need and nothing extra!

We are one hour from the nearest grocery shop so you must bring everything else!

No load-shedding! We are powered by solar!

“Go! My nervous system went into rest/digest/relax as soon as we went through the gates. It’s amazing how much of a difference being in a peaceful place facilitates healing. Its beautiful, it’s alive, it’s fun, it’s growing, it’s an adventure."  - Comment by Guest.
