The Little Farmhouse
Features
Sleeps 6 people
The ‘Little Farmhouse’ on a farm in Stanford is a quaint hidden gem, oozing country character. Explore the forest and drink in the magnificent sunsets before the night sky shows off its sparkling beauty between the tree tops. Bring the whole family and enjoy meals under the stars, made outside on the braai. Relax in a hot forest bath under a thicket of trees and unwind or hop into the wood-fired hot tub with a glass of wine.
Thick walls, dark beams, large indoor fireplace with modern conveniences in the kitchen such as a microwave, stove and small electrical appliances. The friendly donkeys, Onkie and Penelope, munch away in the garden to the children`s delight.

The Little Farmhouse has a Wood-Fired Hot Tub!
At the Little Farm house we have an eco-friendly Wood-Fired Hot Tub! THE ULTIMATE LUXURY OUTDOOR EXPERIENCE
The hottub is an all year round delight. In the heat of summer you can cool off for some relief by using the tub without heating it.
During those cooler autumn/winter evenings, light that fire and within an hour it will be ready for you to relax with a glass of local red wine, do some stargazing with the added charm of a burning woodfire.
Whether you bring the whole family, a group of besties or just in need of a romantic escape, The Little Farmhouse will not disappoint.
Activities

What do our guests say?
Wow! This place took my breath away! The house is old and full of antiques yet has everything you need. A massive porch overlooks the donkeys grazing on your lawn while steam rises from the wood-fired hot tub, the kids are running off into the forest to catch frogs or feed the Alpacas. Loadshedding hit one night while we were in the hot tub, but the air was clear so we stayed inside the warm water even longer while watching the starry night sky. There's no signal so the days are long and slow, perfect for a mental reset. But the ability to wonder off and explore the farm was my ultimate favourite! We're definitely coming back. Hands down best winter family holiday we've had in years! Warning: The owner refused to tell me, but there is a chemical in the hot tub water that puts you to sleep as soon as you get out of it! Haha!
We spent 4 days at the Little Farmhouse. A well appointed cottage that housed 5 of us comfortably. The hot tub was a welcome addition in the cold weather. The hot water bottles on the beds were a nice touch and were really needed.
