Bosjes Herehuis

Setting
Tucked away at the foot of the Waaihoek Mountains in the Breede Valley, Bosjes is a stunning retreat that feels like a hidden gem. The property offers panoramic mountain views, mesmerizing gardens, and striking architecture. The 1790 manor, transformed into a boutique guest house by designer Liam Mooney, retains many original Cape Dutch features, such as yellowwood ceilings and an intricately carved front door, while adding contemporary touches that echo the estate’s heritage.

Lodgings
Bosjes offers 12 luxurious suites (Standard, Premier, Executive, Master, and Family), each beautifully appointed with modern four-poster beds, fireplaces, and plush seating areas. Most suites come with a private plunge pool, and the Family Suites include a mezzanine with single beds, making them ideal for families. Each suite accommodates two adults, with Family Suites offering space for two children as well.

Things to Do
The property is a haven for nature lovers and architecture enthusiasts alike. Stroll through award-winning landscaped gardens or explore wild mountain paths. Onsite amenities include a bistro, deli-café, tea garden, the Boombrug canopy walk, a vertical labyrinth, a spa, a heated lap pool, a sunroom, and a library. The estate’s wave-roofed chapel is a highlight for architecture lovers. For adventure seekers, nearby activities include 4×4 off-roading at the Matroosberg Reserve, ziplining in Ceres, freshwater fishing at Brandvlei Dam, and wine-tasting in the Breedekloof region.
