Description

Joubertskraal Farm, ideally situated near the 4x4 track to the Baviaanskloof in the Kouga Mountains, is a unique, wilderness farm and forms part of the Baviaanskloof Mega Reserve, a World Heritage Site. Nature lovers, mountain bikers, hikers, birders and those searching for true wilderness and peace will enjoy what we have to offer on our 1500-hectare farm.

Elegant, comfortable, farm-style accommodation is offered The Pepper Tree Cottage. Pepper Tree Cottage was the original homestead on the farm and was lovingly restored with the help of an environmental architect.

The cottage is ideal for a couple. Pepper Tree Cottage contains 1 double bedroom, and there is a double sleeper couch in the lounge (which can accommodate children). The unique bathroom boasts a deep Victorian-style bathtub and a shower. The kitchen is well-equipped for self-catering with a bar fridge, 2-burner gas stove, and a wood-burning stove in winter. The eclectic décor combines antique fittings and African artwork with local farm paraphernalia.

In true wilderness style, and to minimise the carbon footprint, electricity is generated by solar power. Waste is either composted or recycled. Blackwood timber, from our ongoing alien-clearing project, and natural materials sourced on the farm were used in the cottage’s restoration.
