It was quiet during the off season, close proximity with nature. The cottage we were placed in was clean and well-equipped, kudos to the housekeeping team.

Beautifully situated in the middle of the reserve - animals are coming in principle to your door. The room was well setup, including an open fireplace (that we did not use). Wonderful surrounding and efficienct restaurant service.

De Hoop is such a special place and Opstal houses create a perfect environment from which to appreciate the natural magic that surrounds it. This is our 3rd visit to Opstal and the nature reserve and this time we bought about 10 friends who all agreed that it was the high point of our holiday to SA.
On previous visits the rock pools have been one of my favourite features and I was disappointed in this trip to discover that a higher tide would make these inaccessible for our entire duration as they had been a highlight on previous trips but, hard to know who to complain to about the tides?!... the moon maybe?! However the weather was cooler than my previous visits which made walking and exploring much easier. We did several sunrise missions to the coast and it was simply stunning. Accommodation is no frills but very clean and totally in keeping with the simple wonder of its surroundings. In short De Hoop is stunning and Opstal houses create a perfectly balanced atmosphere from which to appreciate it. Bravo!
Featuring air-conditioned accommodation with a private pool, Melk Houte Bosch Guest Farm is set in Swellendam.

Beautiful house with all the amenities one might need (air fryer included). The area is vast and the views stunning. So much space to explore and enjoy, by foot, bicycle or 4x4. The river with canoes is wonderful. The farm dogs are too sweet and well-behaved. So much to love! Will be back.
Offering barbecue facilities and garden view, Die Blouhuis Farmhouse Retreat with a hot tub is set in Cloeteskraal, 40 km from Swellendam Golf Course and 40 km from Drostdy Museum.

The table was beautifully set for us with serviettes and a protea on the table
There was coffee available and load shedding was adequately catered for
The beaches at Koppie Alleen were beautiful and there is a lovely walk along the lagoon.
The dinner's food was amazing although I thought it was a bit expensive

A good stop off spot for a few days of relaxation and family time.
Mountain bike tracks aplenty.
Also short walking trails.
Plenty of guided activities (extra charge)
The road is a good dirt road, no 4x4 needed, but prepare for dust!
Bring meat and braai for dinner - the dining room is a fixed menu and very expensive.
Most cottages do not have a vlei view. Request a vlei outlook when booking.

It was excellent in every respect.
It was excellent in every respect. From the welcome on arrival, to the kind upgrade, because it was possible, at no extra cost. Lovely room with everything we could have needed. Comfy bed. Crisp linen. A bath. Peace and space. The staff were incredibly friendly and it was apparent that our enjoyment was important to them. The food was outstanding. Beyond expectation - for both meat-eaters and vegetarians. A relaxing time-out weekend, worth a visit :)
