Charming Comfort, Unforgettable Views

Wake up to golden sunlight spilling over the mountain peaks and unwind in the evening under a canopy of stars.

At De Hoop Farm, time slows down.

    • Sip your morning coffee on your private patio as you look at the majestic mountains.
    • Spend lazy afternoons sunbathing on the expansive lawn.
    • Come evening, gather around the communal braai area to grill up a feast and share stories with friends or family.

Our Cottages

We have three connected self-catering units, each as cosy as they are charming.

The cottages sit side by side, making it easy to book two or all three together for families or friends (up to 6 guests in total), while still providing privacy for individual couples. 

    • Each cottage offers the same high level of comfort and those stunning mountain views right from your doorstep, with a few differences in layout and design as described below.
    • All cottages are fully equipped with modern amenities and thoughtful touches to ensure a memorable stay.
    • No matter which cottage you choose, you’ll enjoy a peaceful retreat on our tranquil farm with all the comforts of home.

Cottage One

Cottage One exudes rustic elegance and warmth from the moment you step inside.

An Oregon Pine ceiling infuses the room with golden wood tones and a cosy glow. Polished concrete floors and comfortable furnishings blend old-world character with modern comfort.

Here you’ll find a quaint wrought iron bistro set, perfect for enjoying your morning coffee or a sundowner in the garden. It’s an inviting spot to relax as you take in views of the surrounding mountains and orchards, all while indulging in the cottage’s peaceful, romantic ambience.

Cottage Two

Cottage Two offers a light and airy retreat with soft, modern decor that instantly makes you feel at home.

The beautifully integrated space is designed for comfort and relaxation. The open-plan layout incorporates a convenient kitchenette, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere where everything is within easy reach.

The highlight is an additional comfortable lounge chair, perfect for curling up with a book or simply gazing out at the uninterrupted mountain views. And the wood stove (with wood provided) on your patio.

Cottage Three

Its design mirrors that of Cottage Two, featuring a seamless open-plan layout with a well-appointed kitchenette.

The open-plan design creates a cosy, all-in-one living space that feels both efficient and luxurious. Two comfortable armchairs provide a perfect spot to relax with a book.

An extra lounge chair provides a dedicated spot for relaxation where you can soak up the African sun and take in the panoramic, mountain-facing views at leisure.
