Featuring air-conditioned accommodation with a private pool, Melk Houte Bosch Guest Farm is set in Swellendam.

Such a nice place, just a pity that we could not stay longer! The house is truly spacious and comfortable, with all the things you could need. The friendly doggies were a bonus. The gravel road to the farm is quite a long drive, but the area was very safe and we loved the beautiful clean open night sky.

Everything was thought about, from the coffee and milk to electric blankets and a great desk to sit at and do some work. Secure parking too with an outside area with table and chairs. Also, Hector made a great dinner recommendation at De Vagebond with a menu centred on Ostrich. He was also there to greet us and see us off the next morning. Will definitely come back!
