The Fynbos Trail

Christmas Holiday 2019

The Fynbos Trail closes over the December holidays to enable both our accommodation providers to take advantage of the long-stay holidaymakers and give us all a bit of family holiday.

Should you be looking for a couple of days away in the beautiful Walker Bay Fynbos Conservancy where you can do some hiking, biking, swimming in the dams or just relaxing, have a look at these 4 fantastic cottages you can rent on a self-catering base.

There is the beautiful Fountain Bush House (with pizza oven) on Grootbos Nature Reserve which can sleep 10.

At Witkrans you have 3 cottages to choose from. There is Cone Bush Cottage (with hot tub) which can sleep 10, Buchu Cottage is a 4 sleeper and Windheuvel which is also a 4 sleeper (Windheuvel is set slightly separately from Witkrans so you can bring your pets).
