Setting Description

Set in the peaceful hills of Tesselaarsdal, just 90 minutes from Cape Town, Rolling Hills Farmstead offers a countryside retreat immersed in natural beauty. The chalet sits on a working farm, where guests can encounter animals including sheep, goats, cows and a pot-bellied pig. Expansive views of hills and open skies create the perfect backdrop for leisurely walks, sunrise and sunset watching, or evenings spent stargazing. The property is entirely solar powered, with drinking water provided and borehole water for other use, ensuring a sustainable and eco-friendly stay. The area is known for its unspoilt landscapes, quiet charm and easy access from Cape Town, making it an ideal weekend getaway. Guests can enjoy the seclusion of the farm while still being within reach of small towns and regional highlights in the Overberg.
