Mountain and valley views

Guests say the views are lovely.
"Sitmaarso" is a renovated clay-brick manor house in the back of the large valley which constitutes Wagenpad farm. It is private and located in a unique setting with a beautiful view over the southern Cederberg. Cape Mountain Zebra, Springbok and Bontebok can be seen on the farm, which also has kilometers of single-track hiking trails.

The space
Sitmaarso consists of a main house, with a kitchen and living area, two indoor fireplaces and a large bedroom with a double bed, as well as a large, shaded stoep with a beautiful view. Leading from the stoep there is a smaller bedroom with two single beds. Inside the house is a bathroom with a toilet and a shower. The annex, "Sakkie se kerk", is separate from the main house, which has an additional double-bed bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. The annex is positioned under the Bluegum Trees.

This cottage is one of five cottages that are available on the farm. Each cottage is private and located in a different part of the farm. Links to the other cottages are available below:
