The property is comfortable and as advertised. It is well equipped and the outdoor hot tub was a bonus. It is centrally located in the Robertson Valley with easy access to the wine farms and local towns.

Melkhout is set in a beautiful location on a dairy farm but you have full privacy without any disturbances. It was fully fitted out with everything you need for a hassle free breakaway. Love the little touches of farm produce in the cottage from the owners.

Beautifully kept. Everything you need is here. Secure garden and loved the hot tub and sitting under the huge pepper trees. The sounds of the Jersey cows are so peaceful and they are wonderful to watch.
