WHY? Because this guest farm (and working olive farm) in the beautiful Diepklowe Nature Reserve has plenty of character; surrounded by koppies and looking onto a cliff face where the black eagles nest, the property also has two rivers running through it, so your ceremony will take place in spectacular surrounds. Have your reception in the restaurant or outdoors, then spend a few nights with favourite friends in the "simple, refined luxury" of its private cottages and Farmhouse.

WE THINK...
it's a magical spot for nature lovers... and lovers of good food and wine, what with some fine wineries in this un-commercial area.
