Comfortable, beautiful farm, friendly hosts went out of their way.

Dassenheuwel is a beautiful farm and Lida went out of her way to make sure that we were comfortable. Even before we arrived, she was very helpful in trying to accommodate additional family members who wanted to join us. The accommodation is full of special touches and we appreciated the complimentary fresh farm bread, bottle of wine, and butter. gave us a wonderful tour of the farm and we learnt so much from him. Thank you very much, Lida.

Kobus en Lida het van die staanspoor af laat welkom voel. Die eenheid is smaakvol en prakties uitgerig en dit was fantasties om weer vars plaaslug in te asem. Ons sal beslis terug wees, maar dan beslis vir langer. Baie dankie weereens!

Fantasties!

Ons is baie gereëlde lekker slapers en is maar puntenerig, maar ons respekteer ook die feit dat mense verskil en daarom lewer ons as 'n reël nie kommentaar op ons verblyfervarings nie. Dassenheuwel het egter 'n groot indruk op ons gemaak. Eenvoudig gestel, dit het ons verwagtinge oortref! Netjiese plek en oulike, hartlike mense wat aan die klein dingetjies ook aandag gee.

Vandat ons daar aangekom het tot met ons vertrek het ons in 'n welkome atmosfeer beweeg. Lida voorsien in elke behoefte en met kwaliteit, sal hierdie plek aanbeveel vir elkeen wat sielsmoeg is. Die tuisgebakte brood was 'n welkome verrassing. Gasvryheid op sy beste.

Plaaskuier met die kinders.

Die huis het alles wat jy nodig het vir 'n lekker naweek weg. Naby genoeg aan Malmesbury as jy gou iets moet gaan koop. Die huis gee jou 'n ou plaashuis gevoel met 'n nuut oorgedoende badkamer en pragtige plaaskombuis. Klein details maak dit sommer net ekstra spesiaal - plaasbrood, beskuit, genoeg tee, koffie en suiker. Die eerlikheids-"minibar" is ook baie gerieflik - hout, blits, ekstra drankies, beskuit ens vir as jy dit dalk vergeet het.

Farm visit with the children.

The house has everything you need for a nice weekend away. Close enough to Malmesbury if you need to go shopping soon. The house gives you an old farmhouse feel with a newly redone bathroom and beautiful farmhouse kitchen. Small details just make it extra special - farm bread, rusks, enough tea, coffee and sugar. The honesty "minibar" is also very convenient - wood, flash, extra drinks, crackers etc for if you might have forgotten them.

Most enjoyable stay we have ever had on a holiday.

We had a most enjoyable time while on holiday. The host, hostess, and their son were the most thoughtful people during our stay. They made our stay comfortable and provided us with a valuable learning experience of farm life. Their goal is for visitors to come as guests and leave as friends, and I can personally attest to this being true. Coming from the city, we didn't know much about farm life, but their son taught us so much and made it easy for us to understand. The family are warm and wonderful individuals. Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable.

Heerlike rustige plaasverblyf.

Ons het heerlik in die Farmstay huis gebly wat voorsien was met alles wat ons benodig het en nog meer. Ons was verwelkom deur die reuk van varsgebakte brood en bederfies soos konfyt, melk, muesli ens. Het lekker gestap na die wildskamp, ontspan op die stoep en heerlik gebraai. Sal definitief graag weer gaan kuier.

Vinnige wegbreek vir een aand naby die huis.

Ons het vreeslik lekker hier gebly! Dit is so rustig op die plaas. Daar is elke moontlike luuksheid waaraan jy kan dink! Die gasvrou bak die heerlikste beskuit! Ons het selfs bordspeletjies op die stoep gespeel. Die uitleg is oopplan so jy moet gerieflik wees met 'n oop badkamer as jy hier kom bly. Die enigste "opbouende kritiek" wat ons dalk vir die eienaars sal gee is die uitleg van die braaiarea. Daar is twee eenhede langs mekaar wat 'n braaiarea deel. Ons was gelukkig alleen die aand daar so dit het ons nie gepla nie maar ek dink die logistiek sal effens moeilik wees as jy saam met vreemde mense daar bly. Die stoep en braaiarea word gedeel so jy gaan nie juis privaatheid hê nie. My voorstel sal wees dat hulle dalk 'n afskorting op die stoep sit tussen die twee eenhede en dalk nog 'n braaiplek aan die ander kant van die stoep inrig.

Quick getaway for one night close to home.

We had a great time staying here! It is so peaceful on the farm. There is every possible luxury you can think of! The hostess bakes the most delicious rusks! We even played board games on the porch. The layout is open plan so you should be comfortable with an open bathroom if you come to stay here. The only "constructive criticism" we might give to the owners is the layout of the barbecue area. There are two units next to each other that share a braai area. Luckily we were there alone that night so it didn't bother us but I think the logistics will be a bit difficult if you are staying there with strange people. The porch and braai area are shared so you won't really have privacy. My suggestion would be that they maybe put a partition on the stoep between the two units and maybe set up another braai place on the other side of the stoep.

Hallo Inge,
Dankie vir jou positiewe terugvoer. En ons is bly jy het jou kuier hier op die plaas geniet.

Ons is in die proses om planne te maak om die braai area op te deel. Daar is net baie faktore wat in ag geneem moet word, wat gaste miskien nie aan dink nie, soos die brandgevaar van 'n enkele vonk, omdat ons hooi/kafstoor baie naby aan die kothuise is, en 'n vonk of 2 groot skade kan maak, met 'n hele jaar se voer wat tot niet kan brand.... ;(
Dan is daar ook die uitsig wat belemmer gaan word indien ons 'n afskorting bou.... So, ons werk aan 'n oplossing sodat almal dit steeds kan geniet!!

Gelukkig probeer ek meestal dat daar nie te veel vreemde mense langs mekaar in die kothuise bly nie, ek sal eerder laat mense privaat wees, en die ander een "toemaak" vir daardie tyd. Of dan is dit ook meestal vriende wat wel kan saamkuier, wat langs mekaar bly en saam bespreek..


Ek hoop dit antwoord jou vrae?

Groetnis en hoop om julle weer gou te sien.

Fantasties, rustig en pragtig.

Cobus en Lida het ons hartlik verwelkom met hul gasvryheid. Die huis is pragtig. Die grootste verrassing was die varsgebakte plaasbrood, wat vir ons gewag het in die kombuis. Die canolalande was prentjiemooi en ons het die mooiste gesinsfoto's geneem. Ek beveel Dassenheuwel aan vir enige iemand wat net rustig wil wegbreek in 'n ontspanne omgewing.

Beautiful, clean and well equipped. You arrive as a client and leave as family. Beautiful, peaceful farm. All the little (coffee, tea, tusks, fresh baked bread) spoils are so appreciated. Thank you so much. We will be back.

Dit was die beste plek, eintlik baie beter as die gelyke in geldwaarde.

Pragtig huislik en heerlik stil op die plaas. Bokkies en baie voëls om jou dag op te kikker.

It was the best place, actually much better than the equal in value for money.

Beautifully homely and wonderfully quiet on the farm. Goats and lots of birds to brighten up your day.

Baie dankie vir die terugvoer Elise.
Ons is bly julle het die tyd hier by ons geniet.
(Ps. ons het mos daardie week oormatig baie reen gekry, en ons pad was bietjie verspoel, jammer daaroor. Ons sê mos nooit nee dankie vir goeie reen nie ;) Maar hy word nou weer geskraap, dan maklik begaanbaar)
Die rustigheid van die plaas is juis omdat ons 'n hele entjie van die teerpad is.. (6.5km)...

Ons sien uit om julle blommekykers weer hier te verwelkom.

Ongelooflik lekker.

Ek gaan een keer per maand na 'n gasteplaas. Hierdie een is die eerste een wat ek weer en weer sal gaan. Dis die wonderlikste plek ooit. Die eienaars laat voel jou deel van hulle. Die plek is silwerskoon met als en baie meer toegerus. Nog nooit het ek enige plek teëgekom wat so smaakvol toegerus is nie. Als wat jy mag nodig kry - tot hoofpyn pille. Belis die moeite werd. Ek gaan weer daarheen - en nou hoef ek nie meer na die regte plek te soek nie. Ek het my naweekplek gekry.

Incredibly nice.

I go to a guest farm once a month. This one is the first one I will go to again and again. It's the most wonderful place ever. The owners make you feel part of the family. The place is very clean with everything and equipped. Never have I come across any place that is so tastefully decorated. Everything you may need - even headache pills. Worth it. I'm going there again - and now I no longer have to look for the right place. I got my weekend spot.

Sielsverreikend.

Dit was 'n ongelooflike lekker verblyf. Alles waaraan 'n mens kon dink was daar en selfs meer. Kobus en Lida doen baie moeite om die blyplek huislik te maak. Dit is heerlik om aan die einde van 'n dag se werk na die mooi en rustigheid van die plaas terug te keer. Die cottage is met sorg uitgelê en mens voel sommer baie tuis. Kobus en Lida, baie dankie vir julle vriendelikheid en mag Dassenheuwel Farm Stay groei van krag tot krag.

Baie dankie vir die terugvoer Connie.

Die ideaal sou wees as julle in die Farm Stay kon bespreek, maar dit was reeds vol bespreek. En ook het julle op 'n naweek kom kuier wat dit omtrent stormweer was. In somermaande of gewone wintersaande is daardie braaiplek weer heerlik omdat jy kan uitkyk oor die hele werf.

Ek hoop tog julle kom kuier weer eendag vir ons, en dat julle dan bietjie die Farm Stay uit probeer met sy binnebraai of as dit mooiweer is, geniet almal die groot stoep by die kothuise met sy mooi uitsig of onder in die groot tuin by die Farm Stay.

Sien julle eendag weer.

Dit was manjifiek, ons wil beslis weer gaan!

Ons het ons tydjie by Dassenheuwel terdeë geniet. Die huis is pragtig versier en toegerus met alles wat mens kan nodig kry. Ons is verwelkom met 'n tuisgebakte plaasbrood en konfyte, Lida en Kobus was so gasvry en Kobus het ons selfs genooi om saam hom 'n draai deur hulle pragtige plaas te ry. Ons was gelukkig om in die lente te gaan kuier en ons 5-jarige tweeling het hulle verkyk aan die pasgebore lammertjies. Die plaas is ook goed geleë om gemaklik uitstappies te doen na Riebeeck-Kasteel en al die omliggende Swartland wynplase en besienswaardighede. Ons kinders vra al reeds wanneer gaan ons weer plaas toe!

Magnificent, would love to go again!

We really enjoyed our time at Dassenheuwel. The house is beautiful and equipped with everything. We were welcomed with freshly baked bread and jams. Lida and Kobus were so friendly and even invited us on a drive through their farm. We were lucky enough to visit in spring and our 5 year old twins enjoyed the newly born lambs. The farm is well located for outings to Riebeeck-Kasteel and other farms and attractions in the Swartland. Our children are already asking when we'll go back to the farm!

Dassenheuwel is pragtig! Kobus en Lida se gasvryheid is onbeskryflik. Die detail is besonders en daar was nie 'n ding wat kort was nie. Die eenhede is skoon, netjies en uiters gemaklik.

As jy na 'n plek soek wat die siel voed, is dit Dassenheuwel Farm Stay & Cottage.

Wil eerstens dankie sê aan Kobus en Lida vir julle gasvryheid. Ons het welkom gevoel van die begin af. Sover vir 1ste ontmoetings het julle 'n baie goeie indruk gemaak. Ons het in die donker daar aangekom en moet ek sê wat 'n ongelooflike uitsig was dit toe ons daai volgende dag opstaan en buite gaan! Julle het 'n ongelooflike mooi plaas. Alles is netjies en skoon. Daar is soveel lewe in die plek. Kan sien hoeveel tyd in die plek ingaan. Die Flower Cottage wat ek en my verloofde in gebly het was iets besonders. Alles wat jy nodig het is daar jy is niks kort nie. Die cottage is so mooi jy voel tuis van die begin af. Baie mooi en gepaste dekor. Dis moderne boeresjiek vir my gewees. Die plekkie is 'n juweel, jy wil dit amper nie eers deel met iemand nie, haha. Ons het die stilte geniet van die plaas, ons kon rus lekker vuurmaak en braai, opkyk na die sterre met 'n warm koppie koffie en tuisgebakte beskuit (uit en uit bederf met dit gewees). Daai is lewe op sy beste. Ons het so uitgerus gevoel na ons oorbly daar, al was dit net een aand. Kan net indink wat 'n paar aande se oorbly sal doen. Julle is pragtige mense en julle plaas straal dit vir seker uit. Weereens dankie, ons sien julle definiteif in die toekoms.

If you are looking for a place to feed the soul, Dassenheuwel Farm Stay & Cottage is it!

Firstly I want to thank Kobus and Lida for the hospitality. We felt welcome from the beginning. They made a good first impression. We arrived there in the dark and it was an unbelievable view when we woke up the next morning and went outside. You have a beautiful farm. Everything is neat and clean. There is so much life in this place. You can see how much time went into it. The Flower Cottage we stayed in was remarkable. Everything that you need is there. The cottage is beautiful and you feel at home from the start. Beautiful and suitable decor. It was modern 'boeresjiek' for me. This place is a gem, you don't want to share it with anyone. We enjoyed the quiet of the farm, we were able to make a fire and braai, gaze at the stars with a warm cup of coffee and homemade rusks (we were treated by this). It is life at its best. We felt so relaxed after our stay there, even though it was just one night. Can only think what a couple of nights here will feel like. You are special people and your farm definitely reflects it. Thanks again, we will definitely see you in the future.

Die "farm stay" het meer as genoeg plek vir ons as gesin gehad. Alles is baie smaakvol versier. Klein deurdagte toevoegings het ons baie spesiaal en welkom laat voel. Malmesbury is naby soveel dinge om te sien en te doen. Ons sal weer moet terug gaan.

Rustige plaaskuier met moderne geriewe.

Ons was beïndruk met die moderne geriewe, gerieflike beddens en ruimte van die huis. Die kombuis is goed toegerus. 'n Heerlike bederf was die varsgebakte plaasbrood met aankoms.

Onopgesmukte gasheer en -vrou wat aangename, interessante verblyf op 'n pragtige plaas verseker.

Die akkommodasie was netjies, pragtig en volledig toegerus. Dit was aangenaam en interessant om op 'n werkende plaas te vertoef met Kobus wat ons graag rondgewys en van die plaasgeskiedenis vertel het. Van ons aankoms het ons dadelik tuis gevoel en die vrymoedigheid gehad om die natuurskoon waarin die plaas geleë is van alle kante te bekyk en te geniet.

Dit was soos om op my eie plaas te wees, tussen die diere en gasvrye mense.

Ons het nie geweet wat om te verwag nie, maar groot was ons verbasing toe ons daar aanland. Van die welkom sjokolades tot die ekstra komberse op die stoep was meer as wat ons verwag het. Dan praat ek nie eers van die heerlike tuisgebakte beskuit en tuisgemaakte konfyt nie. Al die tee, koffie ens. was meer as wat ons verwag het. Die plaaslewe was my hoogtepunt, al die klein lammertjies wat so bokspring laatmiddag! Dit was so wonderlik om die nuwe klein kalfie se eerste treetjies te kon aanskou! En dan die trippie bergop om die sonsondergang te aanskou! Dit was voorwaar waarde vir geld. Daar is soveel ekstras, te veel om op te noem. Baie dankie.

It was like being on my own farm, among the animals and hospitable people.

We didn't know what to expect, but great was our surprise when we landed there. From the welcome chocolates to the extra blankets on the porch was more than we expected. Then I'm not even talking about the delicious home-baked rusk and homemade jam. All the tea, coffee etc. was more than we expected. The farm life was my highlight, all the little lambs jumping like that in the late afternoon! It was so wonderful to be able to watch the new little calf's first steps! And then the trip up the mountain to watch the sunset! It was truly value for money. There are so many extras, too many to mention. Thank you very much.

'n Naweek wat ons verwagtinge ver oortref het!

Ek en my ouers het drie dae op Dassenheuwel spandeer, en sal beslis weer gaan kuier daar. Kobus en Lida is die perfekte, vriendelike gasheer en -vrou. Die omgewing en plaas is pragtig, rustig en stil. Dit was heerlik om die plaasdiere en -lewe te ervaar. Kobus het my pa spesiaal bederf en saam met hom op die plaas rondgeneem. Die huis is netjies, smaakvol en uiters gerieflik en volledig toegerus. Ons wou skaars weer huis toe gaan en beplan reeds die volgende besoek, sodat ons weer vroegoggend op die stoep kan sit en koffie drink, en die plaas en stilte en Lida se vars brood met konfyt kan geniet. Baie dankie vir 'n heerlike naweek!

The house is neat, tasteful and extremely comfortable and fully equipped. We hardly wanted to go home again and are already planning the next visit, so that we can sit on the porch again early in the morning and drink coffee, and enjoy the farm and silence and Lida's fresh bread with jam.

Baie lekker gebly met meer as wat nodig was in die kothuise. Die vriendelikheid en gasvryheid van die eienaars, Lida en Cobus, was ongelooflik. Soos die "slogan" sê: Arriveer as 'n besoeker en gaan weg as 'n vriend. Dis inderdaad waar. Sal sterk aanbeveel!

Ons het heerlik oornag in dié smaakvolle eenheid!

Die eenheid is met styl afgerond en ons het niks kort gekom nie. Alhoewel dit selfsorg-eenhede is, was daar wel beskuit en muesli te ete en koffie, tee en melk is voorsien. Dit was wel jammer dat ons as egpaar die stoep en braai-area moes deel met vreemdelinge: nie juis iets waarna mens uitsien wanneer jy so wegbreek nie. Ons sou dus voorstel dat die stoep afgeskort word sodat elke eenheid privaatheid het en daar is ook spasie vir elke eenheid om hul eie braai te hê. Ons het wel gebruik gemaak van die geleentheid en vryheid op die plaas om ver te gaan stap en die pragtige natuurskoon te geniet en vars lug in te asem.

We had a lovely overnight rest in this tasteful unit!

The unit is stylishly finished and we wanted for nothing. Even though it was self-catering units, there were rusks and muesli, coffee, tea and milk. It was a pity that we as a married couple had to share the patio and braai area with strangers - not quite something you look forward to on a getaway. We would thus suggest that the patio is divided so that each unit has privacy and so that there is space for each unit to have their own braai. We did make use of the opportunity and freedom to go walking far in the beautiful nature and just breathe the fresh air.

Hallo Riana,
Dankie vir die terugvoer, en ons is bly dat julle die verblyf en die plaas geniet het.
Aangaande die braaifasiliteit, meeste van die gaste wat in die kothuise oorbly, bly meestal net 1 of 2 nagte oor, aangesien hier klomp onthaalplekke in die omgewing is, en die meerderheid by troues of feeste gaan kuier, of sommer lekker gaan uiteet in die Vallei....

Wat ek voorstel is dat indien jy heeltemal privaat wil wees, gaan die onderste gastehuis (Dassenheuwel Farm Stay) perfek wees vir jou behoeftes. Dit beskik oor 'n binnebraai, lekker buitebraai/boma onder die bome in 'n groot private tuin.... Daar sal jy kan rustig kuier en alleen wees, en niks hoef te deel met "vreemdelinge" nie.... Die Farm Stay is ook heeltemal apart van die kothuise.
Ons het wel al mense in die kothuise gehad wat mekaar nie ken nie, en maar om die beurt braai en kuier op die stoep, en ook dié wat daar en dan vriende maak en sommer saam kuier.....

Groete en dankie vir die ondersteuning.

Teleurstellend.

Slegte sinkplaat grondpad, eenheid vol spinnerakke, ons is R500 per persoon per nag gevra en babas R125 elk. Die eenheid word ook net elke 3de dag skoongemaak, amper geen selfoonsein, geen veiligheidsmaatreëls, te veel reëls en regulasies.

Bad corrugated iron road, unit full of cobwebs, we were charged R500 per person per night and babies R125 each. Also, the unit is only cleaned every 3rd day, almost no cell phone signal, no security measures, too many rules and regulations.

Hallo Benita,
Ons is jammer oor jou 'slegte' ervaring, veral omdat jy al voorheen by ons oorgebly het.
Vir die stukkie pad wat "sinkplaat" is, dis die SDR se gedeelte wat hulself in stand moet hou (ons mag nie), en hulle kom dit gereeld binne 'n sekere siklus skraap. Die res van die pad (wat ons s'n is), skraap onsself en die pad is eintlik in 'n baie goeie kondisie. Die eenheid word elke 2e dag gediens, wat ook by julle die geval was. Die selfoon sein is maar waarmee ons almal saamleef op 'n plaas, maar dis slegs in sekere vertrekke in die gastehuis waar nie selfoon sein is nie, buite is orals selfoon sein. Die ou huis se mure is baie dik, daarom is die sein swak in die huis, maar buite baie goed. (Ons het selfs nie eers meer Telkom lyne nie, ons kom net reg met selfone). Die enkele spinnerakke waarvan jy praat, kom oornag, spinnekoppe kom en gaan, en 'n spinnerak word binne minute gebou, dit was heeltemal skoon die oggend voor jy ingekom het. Die deure en sif deure moet toegehou word om die spinnekoppe en vlieë uit te hou, ons het jou daaroor gewaarsku, maar die deure was steeds oop.

Die plaas word elke dag ten minste een keer gepatrolleer deur ons plaaswag en die polisie, so, ons veiligheidsmaatreels is heeltemal in plek. Die noodnommer van die plaaswag is ook in die huisie aangebring, miskien het jy dit net nie gesien nie??

Die reëls en regulasies is maar by baie plekke, maar aangesien jy 'n ekstra persoon ingebring het, waarvoor jy nie bespreek het nie (jou bespreking was vir 2 volwassenes en 2 babas), en ook nie waarvoor ek jou gekwoteer het nie, en jy toe daarna ekstra moes betaal, kry ek die idee jy is kwaad oor die ekstra betaling. Dis jammer dat jy sosiale media gebruik om jou misnoeë uit te spreek, ons het reeds per epos alles uitgesorteer.

Jammer dat mens so moet reageer, maar soos jy kan sien, al die ander gaste, honderde van hulle, bly altyd baie lekker, en het geen probleem met enige iets in die huis of op die plaas nie. Miskien moet julle, n.a.v al jou teleurstellings eerder nie op 'n plaas in die vervolg bespreek nie.
Dis ons lewe, en baie mense is mal daaroor om ook 'n tydjie op 'n plaas te bly. Soos jy kan sien, geniet almal dit om hier te oornag.

Die foto's is presies die weergawe van ons huisies, niks is verbloem of opgemaak nie. "What you see is what you get", en as daar nou 'n ekstra "Daddy long legs" is, dis als deel van plaaslewe.

Groetnis!

Ideale verblyf as jy rus en vrede soek en wil wegkom uit die stad. Vriendelik en gasvry ontvang en Lida het werklik aan als gedink in terme van geriewe met ekstras soos beskuit en 'n warm varsgebakte brood. Was vir ons 5-ster verblyf! Kan dit sonder enige twyfel aanbeveel en sal enige dag weer terug gaan. Mis reeds die vars plaa lug en koffie en beskuit soggens op die stoep.

Daar word vars plaasbrood afgelewer met julle aankoms!

Ons is ware stadsjapies, so ek het besluit die kinders bietjie die plaaslewe moet beleef. Met net 'n uur uit Kaapstad, is Dassenheuwel die perfekte familie-uitstappie. Warm varsgebakte brood word afgelewer die oomblik as jy aankom. Die gasvrou (Lida) dink aan die kleinste detail. Sy weet dat klein kinders nie alleen in 'n kamer slaap nie en het aangebied om vir ons 'n los matras te gee om die "rondslaap" te vergemaklik. Daar was ook suigstokkies vir die kinders (waar die groot mense die gewone "welkom" sjokolade gekry het ). Die bonus was egter 2 kratte vol lego's wat sy vir ons gegee het om mee te speel. Dassenheuwel is 'n plaas waarop hard gewerk word. Die boer, Kobus, het ons die hele plaas gaan wys en dit was fassinerend vir ons as plaasjapies om te hoor hoe dinge werk. Ons was daar in Maart en dit is wanneer al die lammetjies en kalfies gebore word. Ander tye soos Desember sal die plaas weer anders lyk, want dan is die lande vol koring en granola. Agter die huis is daar 'n tuin met omtrent 10 skilpaaie en hoenders - ook 'n treffer vir my kleuters. Die huis is baie gemaklik. Ruim en luuks. Daar is 2 kamers - 'n dubbelbed in die een kamer en die 2de kamer (die een verder van die TV - so goed vir kinders wat vroeg gaan slaap) het 3 enkelbeddens in. Daar is 'n groot eetkamertafel, maar ons het die lekkerste op die stoep gesit. Die ander trekpleister van die plaas, is dat dit ook baie naby aan Riebeek Kasteel is as jy lus is vir wyn of olyfproe, en ons het selfs eendag Paarl se kant toe gegaan en daar op 'n wynplaas gekuier. So as jy 'n rustige omgewing soek, 'n ruim luukse huis wil hê, maar tog so nou en dan na 'n goeie restaurant toe wil gaan - is Dassenheuwel die plek vir jou!

Fresh farm bread is delivered upon your arrival!

We are real city folk, so I decided that the children should experience a bit of farm life. Just an hour from Cape Town, Dassenheuwel is the perfect family outing. Hot freshly baked bread is delivered the moment you arrive. The hostess (Lida) thinks of the smallest detail. She knows that small children do not sleep alone in a room and offered to give us a loose mattress to facilitate the "sleeping around". There were also lollipops for the children (where the big people got the usual "welcome" chocolate). The bonus though was 2 crates full of legos that she gave us to play with. Dassenheuwel is a farm that is worked hard. The farmer, Kobus, showed us the whole farm and it was fascinating for us as farm lads to hear how things work. We were there in March and that's when all the lambs and calves are born. Other times like December the farm will look different again, because then the fields are full of wheat and granola. Behind the house there is a garden with about 10 turtles and chickens - also a hit with my toddlers. The house is very comfortable. Spacious and luxurious. There are 2 rooms - a double bed in one room and the 2nd room (the one further from the TV - so good for kids who go to bed early) has 3 single beds in it. There is a large dining room table, but we had the best time sitting on the porch. The other attraction of the farm is that it is also very close to Riebeek Kasteel if you feel like wine or olive tasting, and we even went to Paarl one day and visited a wine farm there. So if you are looking for a peaceful environment, want a spacious luxury home, but still want to go to a good restaurant every now and then - Dassenheuwel is the place for you!
