Description

Built in 1938, Rus 'n Bietjie is 1 of the last real old L'Agulhas homes. It has a true fisherman's cottage feel about it with lovely sea views and is situated only 30 m as the crow flies, from the ocean and the ideal swimming place, the historical Soldier's Pool. There is a low vibracrete wall between you and the sea and walking distance to the seashore is a mere 100 steps.

Rus 'n Bietjie is a rustic self-catering home with painted cement floors, a few cracks due to age, and has quite some character, as some of the door frames are from old boats and thus a bit lower than normal. There are 3 double bedrooms, the first room has a double bed and good sea views, the second room has 3 single beds and good sea views and the third room has 3 single beds and mountain views. It can sleep max 8 people, but is ideal for 6 people. The bathroom is fitted with a toilet, washbasin and bath and a recently added shower. Please note that the toilet is slightly lower than usual. There is an outside toilet of normal height which is useful especially when having a braai.

The kitchen has good sea views and is fully equipped with a 4-plate stove and oven, a microwave, a fridge with freezer combination, a toaster, kettle and all the utensils for self-catering purposes. Tea, coffee with a bowl of rusks are provided, as well as washing liquid, salt and pepper. The open plan sitting and dining room area has a small library and TV. There is an OVHD decoder but should you require Dstv, please bring your own decoder. We also have WiFi.

The best part of Rus 'n Bietjie is probably the large undercover stoep and braai area overlooking the ocean. Not only does one see the ships going to and fro, but whales and dolphins are often seen from here. The hammock on the veranda lets you do some sea scanning in comfort!

The plot is pet-friendly, upon prior arrangement.

Rus 'n Bietjie is not everybody's cup of tea, but those that appreciate something different, close to nature and beautiful sea views, love Rus 'n Bietjie and many consider it their favourite holiday destination.

It had been fantastic. It is a very beautiful and peaceful place to break away, kick off your shoes and enjoy the silence of the ocean.
