Montagu Area

We recently stopped off in Montagu on the way back from our Addo, we had three nights in a self catering cottage at Montagu Springs. However on the last day we found two fantastic cottages to rent just off the R60 about 15 kilometers from Montagu. The R60 is a very attractive road to travel as it winds over the hills and through pine forests from Swellendam on the N2 to Ashton and then through to Montagu.

The cottages called Druiwetros Perskepit Olyftak, which means, heaven knows what. They cost R300 per night for two people and an extra R50 for every person after that. Each cottage has a double bedroom and two sleeper couches in the living room. Be aware though there are no doors between the two although there is a wall. They also have a third cottage which has two bedrooms. Outside there is a fire pit and braai area.

the views from the cottages is nothing short of breath taking and there is a small lake in which to swim and there is even a small rowing boat. Surrounding the cottages are fields of apricot trees and a flock of ostrich on the far hill.

The cottages are owned by a lovely couple who farm all the land around them. For R100 you get to tour the farm on a quad bike using the farms tracks and jeep trails.
