At the end of the day, enjoy a glass of wine on the porch and take in the sights and sounds of this spectacular venue.

2. KLEIN BOTRIVIER FARM COTTAGES AT GENEVIEVE MCC
The perfect combination – a good quality Méthode Cap Classique and a gorgeous getaway… What more could you ask for when wanting to escape and celebrate life! Enjoy the wine tastings, mountain biking, horse trails and more when you stay at Klein Botrivier Farm’s Eagle Owl Cottage or Peacock Cottage – both offering every comfort needed. These cottages are fittingly named after the beautiful owls who live in the trees opposite the cottages and the neighbour’s peacocks that you may catch a glimpse of while staying here.
