High Season Farm Luxury Self-Catering Cottages
High Season Farm is perfectly positioned in the breathtaking Hemel-en-Aarde Valley near Hermanus,
just 110 km from Cape Town.
Escape to a peaceful stay in our luxury 4-star self-catering cottages, each privately nestled within its own piece of countryside paradise. Surrounded by panoramic mountain views and unspoilt natural beauty, our eco-friendly working farm offers a relaxing escape for couples, families, children, and large groups. Explore the farm’s scenic walking trails, tranquil dams, and open spaces, where you and your children can enjoy birdlife, wildlife, and our much-loved Nguni cattle. Spend your time hiking, mountain biking, swimming in our refreshing pool, or discovering the many nearby activities the valley has to offer.
The Hemel-en-Aarde Valley is home to some of South Africa’s finest wine estates, restaurants, and hiking trails, while nearby Hermanus is world-renowned for spectacular land-based whale watching. High Season Farm is also ideally suited to family getaways, group stays, intimate weddings, and conference or team building retreats in nature.
Each luxury cottage is fully equipped and features an indoor fireplace, barbecue area, free WiFi, 20-channel DStv, and backup power supplied by inverters in every cottage. As this is a wildlife-friendly working farm, we unfortunately cannot accommodate dogs or pets.
High Season Farm – an unforgettable countryside escape.
