You can’t go wrong when the accommodation you’ve booked is called “Happiness On The Rock,” and this luxury three-bedroom farm-style property will have you brimming from ear to ear.
While a comfortable stay is a prerequisite for any getaway, stunning views of the Western Cape’s rugged and lush landscape should surely come in at number two. However, no matter where it’s sitting on your list, this incredible farm getaway still serves all these prerequisites on a silver platter, with a few more goodies to ensure your stay is unforgettable.
What makes this accommodation magical is its location. Nestled amongst rows of orchards and in the little-known valley of Piket-Bo-Berg, Happiness On The Rock is a countryside gem that will leave you falling in love with the landscape and solitude.
The interior complements its gorgeous surroundings and provides a cosy and spacious stay thanks to its airy open plan living space which includes a fully-equipped kitchen and dining area. Allow your inner chef to run free as you whip up the tastiest pizza cooked in the on-site pizza oven or kick it old school and enjoy a lekker braai.
An indoor fireplace ensures you stay cosy when nights get chilly and a private swimming pool is a perfect addition for those sweltering summer nights.
While you may never want to leave the embrace of your “happy place,” the surrounding area is teeming with wildlife and adventure. Lace up your hiking boots and enjoy the countless hiking trails amongst the orchards or grab your bike and enjoy a bike trail or two. If getting your heart pumping isn’t on the agenda, then slow things down with a game of golf, a day of fishing, or nights filled with plenty of stargazing.
If you’re in search of happiness, try looking for it on this rock.
