Yoga Retreat in South Africa/Cape Town - 24 to 30 November 2024

I’m very excited to announce my upcoming retreat in Cape Town, South Africa.

A little message from the Farmstead, "Space away from the big city lights, where barefooted children run ‘farm-land free’ a place where we connect back to the peace of nature. Ensconced between heaven and earth, where the mountains and waterfalls of Franschhoek meet. You will find a carefully curated cultivation of luxury cottages, pool, a riverside deck, fire places, studio, walks, orchards, trees, chickens, cows and stars to anchor a land where restorative growth, regeneration and organic togetherness emerge.

The farm cottages, with their original footprints, have been rejuvenated using reclaimed and farm-found objects, cleverly sewn together to construct a 'farm stay luxe’ self catering experience. We felt that the space had to be more than accommodation, it needed to make memories too, and so the farm stay cottages were born. Country comfort using things of the farm, with a twist of lush, would be our style inspiration.

​Here you leave behind the clutter, and find peace with a touch of sparkle...."

Getting Here

Directions

From Cape Town turn off the N1 onto the R45 towards Franschhoek 14km before Franschhoek opposite the Motor Museum is Two Rivers West Gate. Enter gate and stay on tar road for 1km (don’t turn onto gravel road right our neighbour Elkasun or brick road left). Over the hump and down to low level bridge. There is always a few inches of water over this bridge - its fine to cross - go slowly. Farmstead is then 50m on the left.


In late winter after heavy rains and if you dont want to cross the bridge you can use our Winter Entrance - Two Rivers EAST Gate
From the West Gate continue 5km on the R45 towards Franschhoek, past Bridge House School, across the big bridge, then turn immediately left after the bridge (10meters after bridge).
