From the warm embrace of our hospitality to the rich flavors of fine dining. We welcome you to the South African bushveld where every moment is a love story
Getaway
“Years ago we fell in love with Africa, a love that we like to share with our guests. That special feeling that hopefully gets into you when you stay over and Dine with us in the Bushveld and where the South African wine and the smell of Africa will seduce you. Enjoy the starry South African night and share stories around the fire. In the crispness of the early morning, that moment when the sun just rises and the birds start singing. Just before a peaceful breakfast, your heart will be full of love for Africa as well”.
Food & Wine Experience
‘Be welcome and feel at home’, that’s what I want to achieve when I fill the clear crystal glasses that do justice to the boutique wines from the Western Cape. Take a seat at the table that will be decorated with beautiful crockery, flowers and candles to heighten that special atmosphere. South African wine will complement the well balanced dish. If you’re still not blown away by now, ‘let me tell you’, the amazing, undisturbed view over the lower bushveld, where you may spot some wildlife will definitely have that effect!
Who we are
We are Jan and Astrid, from Dutch origin and we emigrated in December 2005 with our son to the Western Cape of South Africa. Along the way, as we are getting older, we got to learn a bit of South Africa. Travelled to some nice places, met lovely people that became friends and got lost in ‘Living the Good Life’ of South Africa. We think there is no better place than this beautiful country! We love to read, love good food and wine and like to socialize with people from all over the world… Jan likes carpentry and Astrid loves to write, decorate, photography and cooking and both of us adore our 2 dogs. In May 2018 the two of us moved with the dogs to Lephalale/Ellisras . Living our Dream, doing what we love and hopefully you love that too! If you want to know more about us… please flip through the website, read the blog or even better; stay over at our Dinner Bed & Breakfast or book a late lunch or dinner at our stoep.
