“5 star service + 5 star location = one of the best getaways easily accessible from Cape Town.
Jan Harmsgat, dating back to 1723, is an exquisite property filled with elegance, charm and top class service. The accommodation i stayed in (as there is no shortage of choice) was a house kitted out with four bedrooms (all ensuite) and two lounges split on two floors. Each bedroom was a superb combination of old and new while the lounge areas had a fridge with snacks and drinks, books and magazines and your choice of comfy couches. Outside you will find a swimming pool on one side and garden/vineyard views on the other. All in all plenty to keep you active or relaxed and comfortable in any season you choose to visit. One could ramble on for ages on Jan Harmsgat’s beauty so all that is left to be said it…highly recommended! Do yourself a favour and visit for a few days as a break in itself or break up your journey en route elsewhere.” Roger, The Expedition Project
