Description

Situated at the foot of the Soetmuisberg mountains, Bergen Dam Cottage is a comfortably furnished worker’s cottage for up to 6 people, just 20 km from Bredasdorp

Overlooking the veld, mountains, and dam it was named after, the cottage is off the grid, and is powered by gas, paraffin, and has a wood-burning donkey for hot water.

The cottage comprises 2 bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms. One of the rooms contains a double bed, and the other is furnished with a double bed, as well as a bunk bed. Both rooms have shower facilities. 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, as well as tea- and coffee-making facilities, and meals can be enjoyed at the dining table. Paraffin lamps are also provided, and guests can relax in front of the fireplace.

The living area opens onto a covered stoep with braai facilities in the sheltered lapa. 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.

Guests can cool down in the dam and a hot tub is available. 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.
