About Us...

Our family has lived in this area for many years and my great grandmother built and ran her own holiday farm in the early 1920s.

Our love for the area brought us back one by one, and two years ago Summer Villa was started.  We love sharing our passion for this beautiful area with travelers from far and wide.

“Awesome location and view!  Crystal was a pleasure to deal with and her parents were warm and welcoming and happy to impart lots of useful information about the surrounding areas.  On their recommendation we deviated from our original plan and went to Oudtshoorn which ended up being the highlight of our trip."

LUCAS TANTS, DE

"Summer Villa is an exceptional place to stay and enjoy. The cabin is superb, it has everything you need, but what we enjoyed the most is the hospitality of the hosts.  They are a great family and we had a great time sharing stories.  The cabin is surrounded by nature, with a beautiful view over the valley, has an amazing braai area.  We enjoyed every second we stayed.  Thanks again."

ODETTE JANSE V RENSBURG, ZA

“We were greeted upon check in.  They went out of their way to assist with two platters as it was my husbands birthday.  The entire unit was amazing, the slouchy couches, Netflix and cozy fireplace was exactly what we needed for the cold weather over the weekend. I would definitely return again for a second stay...or even more.”
