On the historic Compagnies Drift farm (c1750), which produces Beaumont Wines, lie two very comfortable yet unpretentious cottages - Pepper Tree and Mill House (where part of the building is indeed a restored mill). It is an idyllic setting (- amid vineyards and orchards, spectacular vistas, and with a dam and river nearby) and an ideal base to explore the whole Hermanus/Elgin region. The world class Arabella golf course is nearby.
Mill House
Part of the original Mill House with views down to the river and across the valley to the seldom-used rail line. Off the kitchen, there is a quaint courtyard and braai area.
There are two double bedrooms with a sleeper couch in the living room that can sleep two more.
The visitors' book tells a story... one Irish couple wrote: "The cottage a delight, full of atmosphere & history. An evening swim in the dam just adds to the magic."
Pepper Tree Cottage
One double bedroom with two extra sleeping places in the living room. Fully equipped kitchen, outside braai, kitchen fireplace, linen duvets, towels provided, wood-burning heater.
