A real gem. This was our second visit and fully enjoyed. Bev & Graham are wonderful hosts. The farm is in a glorious position and offers direct access to hiking & biking trails. Step outside at night and marvel at the stars (no light pollution). Staff on site are also very friendly and it was great to chat with them. Will return soon. CAPE DUTCH COTTAGE

This property was absolutely magnificent and we loved every moment of our stay. The place was set up beautifully, with everything we needed and Beverly and Graham were the most wonderful hosts. Fully-equipped laundry a bonus and the wood-buring stove with wood supplied created a lovely ambience. The garden is absolutely sublime. Highly recommended! CAPE DUTCH COTTAGE

Words can't describe how lovely our stay at Bev and Graham's place was. To say the surroundings are beautiful, the hosts are friendly and the place is comfortable is an understatement. We had an incredible week and I look forward to coming back in the future and spending a week amidst the flowers very soon. Thank you so much, Bev and Graham, for allowing us to experience the beauty of your place. CAPE DUTCH COTTAGE

We only stayed a couple of nights, but this property was so relaxing and comfortable that it would have been great for a longer holiday, especially with there being so much to do in the area. I really appreciated the well-designed and fragrant garden setting, with fresh homegrown herbs and large lemons being to pick for culinary use, if desired. There was also a large range of dried herbs and spices provided in the kitchen, which was typical of the thoughtfulness shown by Beverly; it was evident throughout our stay that hospitality is simply in her nature.

This is my second time staying at Beverly’s lovely farm and it’s sure not to be the last! It is a hidden gem. Peaceful, serene, tranquil, quiet and has an amazing energy to it. Great activities to do right there and close to local activities but feels far away which I like. The staff are incredible and so so lovely! 💖 The cottage was spotless, tastefully detailed and fully equipped. You can feel that love was put into every aspect of this place. I can’t recommend a better place to stay with better people. Thank you Beverly and Team, see you again soon!! CAPE DUTCH COTTAGE

Absolutely loved my stay and wish I could move in - very tastefully decorated and nice and cozy in the gloomy weather. The cottage is surrounded by the most glorious gardens (even in September) which roll into the most magnificent fynbos with views of the bay beyond. I prefer to stay in the country when I visit Plettenberg Bay but this really is the best of both worlds because you literally are mere minutes from the beaches, practical amenities and restaurants.

For serene relaxation, look no further! Brilliant! Located on a beautiful plot of land surrounded by some pine forest and a beautiful garden which attracts a wide variety of birds. MTB/hiking trails on the farm are brilliant, especially at the far end where you can watch the sunset. Accommodation is very nice, spacious, and clean. Hosts are very welcoming and willing to assist with anything. If you're after relaxation, peace and quiet, look no further. Lots to do in the area and a short hop to town. Thanks for a wonderful stay! CAPE DUTCH COTTAGE

We loved both self catering cottages at Greenhill Farm. The one bedroom Dutch Cottage was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The two bedroom cottage was absolutely beautiful and had a fabulous private terrace with views of the gardens and the stunning beaches in Plett. The gardens were stocked with gorgeous shrubs and plants and the swimming pool with the games room was an added bonus for all. Bev & Graham were great hosts, very friendly and approachable and invited any suggestions, to how they could improve on the accommodation. We loved our stay and will return. CAPE DUTCH

A Cape Dutch Cottage stay was exactly what Sue and I needed after a stressful 24 months of projects - a place to relax and revitalise some creative energy. Beverly helped us feel right at home from the minute we arrived; a wonderful engaging, organised and friendly host. The cottage is tastefully decorated, homely, with every appliance and gadget needed for comfortable living. The superbly laid out, well kept gardens(amongst others a magnificent collection of roses) and stunning views made for a super relaxing stay. Definitely on the must-visit-again list. CAPE DUTCH
