Accommodation Description

White Water Farm offers a collection of cottages and suites on a historic working farm. The Gatehouse Cottage is a standalone, self-catering retreat designed for couples. The open-plan 65 m² space features a king-size four-poster bed, lounge with fireplace, and a compact kitchenette complete with air-fryer and induction hob. Its en-suite bathroom boasts twin basins, a walk-in shower, and a standalone Victorian bath—set within the bedroom for a romantic touch. Large windows and a private stoep offer sweeping views across the rolling Klein River Valley, framed by grazing farm animals. Daily breakfast baskets are delivered each morning, while secure parking, Wi‑Fi, and generator backup ensure comfort. Ideal for honeymoons or intimate escapes, Gatehouse Cottage blends countryside seclusion with thoughtful elegance.

Setting Description

Positioned beside the farm's charming entrance and surrounded by 50 hectares of oak-shaded pasture, Gatehouse Cottage offers panoramic valley vistas and calming rural ambience. Guests can wander farm trails to spot Nguni cattle, springbok, alpacas, donkeys, and horses grazing nearby. A short stroll leads to the 20 m salt-water pool and spa pavilion, while stocked dams offer casual fishing opportunities. The cottage is a ten-minute drive from Stanford village—home to craft breweries, galleries, and wineries—and a 30‑minute drive from Hermanus and Gansbaai, known for whale-watching and shark diving. Perfectly situated to balance tranquil farm life with accessible local attractions, the setting promises both meandering reflection and easy adventure.
