Description
Located in a bowl in the mountains on the historic Bainskloof pass between Wellington and Worcester, Jervaux is the quintessence of Old Cape charm and tranquillity. Surrounded by pristine Fynbos, with wrap-around views and over 400 meters of unspoiled river, including a large natural swimming pool, the Cape Dutch cottage is the perfect place to relax and enjoy life's simple pleasures.
The property is well situated for a variety of activities, including wine tasting, both in the Breede River valley and over the pass in the Wellington and Paarl area, the property borders the Limietberg nature reserve on one side and vineyards on the other, from the rustic Calabash bush pub up the road to more upmarket options at some of the neighbouring wine estates, or just enjoying the peace and tranquillity of the Cape mountains. There is a large pool in the river for swimming and the water is crystal clear, the entire Kloof upstream is protected reserve. In winter, the surrounding peaks are often snow-covered.
The Cape Dutch cottage has one double bedroom en-suite, and is built in old Cape style with antique furniture. As it is on the far side of the river, access is via boat and a short walk. It has stunning views up the Kloof, and across the Breede river valley wine-lands to Mostert's twin peaks. The cottage is off the grid, water is sourced from a natural rock spring on the property, and there is a solar system for electricity.
Upstream the Wit Rivier flows through the Limietberg Nature Reserve and is unspoiled. Firewood is usually available on site and is free. Ice and cool bags are advised for the cape Dutch cottage and the middle house.
The New Cottage has two bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, and is on the near side of the river close to the parking area. It has beautiful views over the vineyards down the the valley. There is normal Eskom supply and water is sourced from a spring on the property.
