Coffee Shops in Greyton / Genadendal
When the time comes to plan a much-needed getaway, it can be tricky to find the right place. Driving out into the Overberg and calling one of the small towns in the area “home” for a short while is generally an excellent idea. Not only do you and your loved ones get to experience a different kind of natural beauty, but you also have your pick of surroundings. If you like the idea of a sleepy seaside hamlet then you’re in luck. However, if your kind of happy place is further inland, surrounded by lush scenery, then there are many exquisite places to choose from. Essentially though, wherever you rest your head in this beautiful part of the country, you’ll find yourself never wanting to leave.
When you’re staying in Greyton and Genadendal, it is a good idea to find a local coffee shop. This gorgeous little town forms part of Theewaterskloof and seems to be lost in time as the way of life here is slow, quiet and uncluttered. It’s this tranquillity and the return to old-school, authentic living that makes it such a popular place to visit. Now when you’re here, spending an hour or two at a nearby café is a great plan because it allows you to get a feel for your surroundings. In addition to a fantastic cappuccino or Americano and maybe a slice of home-baked cake, you’ll also get the ear of a friendly local. What better way to find out about the activities that are worth your while?
Coffee shops in the Greyton area are also excellent places to catch up with your travelling partners! A wonderful thing about this town is that everything is fairly close by. This means that you can take a short walk from your accommodation to the centre of town and enjoy the freedom of your temporary surroundings. Another interesting fact is that many of the cafés here are also informal galleries, so you can see some of the local crafts while you enjoy your cuppa.
As you sit in the coffee shop, sipping on a tasty beverage, you will probably find your mind wandering and your thoughts dwelling on how delicious it would be to call this lovely piece of paradise “home” for real.
