This Is Our Story
Golden Sunset is offering this hide away called "Dirk se Huisie". A cottage, the late Dirk Blanckenberg used to live in while working on the farm. Originally only a room with a kitchen - it was always lovingly referred to as "Dirk se Huisie".
In honour of Dirk, we decided to keep the name.

Solo Trip
Wow! Where do I begin? - and what a contrast to the UK! My Dad and I are always looking for new adventures and we can honestly say this has been one of our favourites to date.We tried out both hiking trails and what an experience.

Ons voeg ons ervaring van waardering by die voorafgaande inskrywings. Hier is soveel om te geniet : stilte, voëls, stappaaie en interessante verskeidenheid blomme. Heerlik!
...om nie van die paddakoorserenade te vergeet nie...
Hoop dit is ons beskore om weer te kom kuier.
Dankie en groete.
