Self contained cottage with a lovely garden view. The cottage has comfortable accommodation with a nice self contained kitchenette. There are a number of excellent restaurants nearby as well as two very well know wine estates both only five minutes by car. The historic town of Stellenbosch is just a short 15 minute drive on the R44 with a number of excellent wine estates en route. Erinvale golf course which is world renowned is very close by. Should you want to visit Cape Town, we are 30 minutes from the centre of town.
I love meeting new people and want to ensure that they have a special and happy experience on our property. We have two small dogs and 2 cats so we are great animal lovers and hope our guests will be too. I enjoy walking and hiking and we have the Lourensford river nearby to take a lovely walk or the Helderberg Nature reserve five minutes away. Reading is a passion and I enjoy a well made movie on a cold winters night with a good cup of tea
Brookwood Cottage is in a lovely quiet suburb. We are minutes away from shops and amenities. Lourensford Wine farm as well as Vergelegen wine warm are a few minutes by car. There are excellent restaurants nearby and the beach is only seven or so minutes by car. Cape Town is a half hour drive away and the historical town of Stellenbosch is just a 15 minute drive.
