Braai area in the forest

Stanford is a small, historic village on the Klein River, 150 km from Cape Town. Mountains on one side, the river on the other, and Hermanus and Gansbaai both within half an hour’s drive.

It’s a good place for couples and families who want to slow down. Walk, cycle, paddle, eat well, or do nothing at all. For what’s on in the village, see www.stanfordinfo.co.za.

We have three self-catering houses, each with its own character: a farmhouse in the forest, a cottage on the village green, and a house on the Hermanus Lagoon.

Specials!

Keep an eye out for our new specials coming soon!

The Blue House

A roomy Victorian cottage on Market Square, right in the old heart of Stanford. Two bedrooms with double beds and a third with two sets of bunks, so it works well for two families sharing.

Inside: crisp white linen, big soft couches and old Persian rugs. Outside: a covered patio over a large garden. Walk down the gravel road to the river for a paddle, a birding boat trip or an amble along the banks.

The Little Farmhouse

An old farmhouse on our farm, in a forest a few kilometres outside the village. Thick walls, dark wooden beams and a big indoor fireplace, with a modern kitchen.

Outside there's an outdoor shower and bath, a wood-fired hot tub, a braai area under the trees and a farm dam. Children love Onkie and Penelope, our resident donkeys, who graze in the garden. On clear nights, the stars come out through the treetops.

Lagoon View

A spacious house in a private estate, with the Hermanus Lagoon in front and mountains behind. The living areas open onto a large deck, made for long summer lunches and watching the boats go by.

Bring your own boat: launch from the private jetty for a day of water-skiing. Hermanus is close by for golf, the cliff path and the galleries.
