Jan Harmsgat Country House in Bonnievale, close to Robertson and Montagu, is a historic Cape Dutch Farm House dating from 1723 and beautifully set amongst orchards of pecan nut, almond and citrus trees.
Elegant countryside charm, sense of space and comfort and fine homemade farm cheese, preserves and baked goods.
4 standard rooms in the original slave quarters with beautiful thatch roof or wooden beamed ceilings, one luxury room in the original wine cellar and 6 newly built luxury suites with private entrance in the elegant Van Eeden House, dating from the 19th century and adjacent to the main building.
Relax at the 14-metre salt water swimming pool soaking up the stunning views.
The restaurant at the farm is not to be missed : lunch and dinner menu changes frequently as the kitchen utilizes fresh produce grown in its own garden.
Diners are sure to be pleased with choices such as rack of lamb, seared tuna, aged beef fillet, or the famous kudu fillet. All pastas are hand made and salad is picked fresh daily.
It is often said dessert should be eaten first, for it is not to be missed. Pecan pie is a specialty made with the organically grown pecans from the farm and topped with homemade ice cream from the dairy.
Children welcome.
