Olive Stone Farm  Verified Listing

Lovingly transformed from what was once simply a piece of land populated with olive trees, into a working farm that is home to 3 wonderful stone guest cottages, a hand-packed stone barn and animal kraal, a thriving vegetable garden, natural, stone swimming pools, cows, chickens and sheep, and even a tamed guinea fowl or two. Olive Stone Farm produces its own delicious olive oil, bottled olives, butter, milk, cream (when available), vegetables (guests are welcome to make use of the vegetable and salad garden), lamb and eggs.
Olive Stone Farm is a small working farm in the town of Montagu and offers off-the-grid self-catering cottage accommodation. The cottages are built out of stone that was sorted and collected from farms outside Montagu and was carefully designed and built by the owners, Andrew and Elaine Hare.

Each 46-square metre cottage is very private and built between the olive trees, and has its own dip pool for those hot Karoo days. Each cottage contains a comfortable bed made up with percale linen. Each cottage has both an indoor and an outdoor hot and cold shower. Soaps, a shower cap and a hairdryer are provided.

Each cottage has a fully equipped kitchen. Farm milk from Daisy the cow, extra virgin olive oil from the farm olives, starter tea, coffee and sugar are supplied as well as eggs when available. Each cottage has a ceiling fan, and for the cold winters, each cottage has a fireplace for heating. Free limited Wi-Fi is available.

Outside you will find a braai area and sun lounges, an umbrella and seating on the veranda. Each cottage has a wonderful view of the surrounding mountains. Parking is also at each cottage on the property.

Shops, supermarkets and restaurants are all within walking distance of the cottages. These cottages are a place to relax, read your books, play some board games, suntan, or partake in the many hikes that Montagu has to offer.

Guests can be accommodated on the farm in either Olive Cottage (queen bed), Stone Cottage (twin or king bed), or Farm cottage (Twin or King).

All three cottages are entirely built from locally-sourced stone, offering guests a fully equipped kitchen and bathroom, hot inside and outside shower, percale linen and towels, basic locally-produced soaps and creams, hair drier, ceiling fan, indoor fireplace, outside braai, sun loungers, sun umbrella for those wonderful hot summer days and a beautiful private natural plunge pool.

All rooms are non smoking but you are welcome to smoke on the patio. Gas oven and stove to allow the cottage to be as off-grid as much as possible (no microwave). LED lighting throughout.

No credit card facilities are available. Children can be accommodated by prior arrangement and at the owner's discretion.
