Pure Tranquillity

An Unhurried Escape in the Heart of the Langeberg

Situated in a lush green valley, 12km outside of Heidelberg in the Western Cape, this scenic dairy farming area on the eastern slopes of the Langeberg Mountain Range offers an oasis of calm. Here, misty mornings give way to golden afternoons, and the only soundtrack is the rustle of leaves and the gentle lowing of cattle.

Heidelberg, the gateway to the Garden Route, makes this the ideal midway sanctuary between Cape Town and Knysna — close enough for a spontaneous weekend away, yet a world apart in spirit.

Our Cottages

Two beautifully appointed self-catering retreats — Rose Cottage and Granny's Cottage — each with stunning mountain views.

Scenic Vistas

Take in the rolling hills and serene beauty that surrounds AtTheDairyShed — a panorama that changes with every hour and season.

Things To Do

Curated Experiences

Cycle through fields and forests, hike to stunning viewpoints, or cool off in the crystal-clear river. Canoeing, birdwatching, or simply the art of doing nothing at all.

Our Story

For over four generations, this land was a working dairy farm. In 2021, new custodians lovingly restored the old buildings into a sanctuary where guests can reconnect with what truly matters.

What Our Guests Say

"A true gem! This place was better than what we hoped for! The view is absolutely stunning, the house is perfect with creative touches and everything we needed. We enjoyed lovely walks in nature, relaxed next to the river and we truly are refreshed after our visit. Thank you Bernadine for all the special touches and the fresh farm products - it was amazing!"
