If you need to unwind, this is the place ... Cactus Blue Cottages! Recently refurbished and landscaped, Cactus Blue is designed
to accommodate three couples or a small family with older children in two
separate cottages, overlooking the smallest registered vineyard in the country.
The garden is private, planted with indigenous plants, succulents and trees
with a stargazing pool to cool off in, or scour the spectacular night skies. Three and a half hours drive from Cape
Town through the wide open expanses and the big skies of the Karoo and one hour from Oudtshoorn, Prince Albert is a delightful gem of a village
in the Karoo, and the gateway to the spectacular Swartberg
Pass, a National Monument and part of
the Cape Floral Kingdom,
designated as a World Heritage Site. It is also the nearest village to a fascinating valley called ‘Die Hel' where a
small proud community lived in simple isolation for more than 100 years until
1964. This picturesque and tranquil village nestles at the foot of the magnificent Swartberg Mountain range. The cottages are
situated in the heart of the village
and are within a few minutes walk of a dozen restaurants.
Simple and restful living in an informal tranquil oasis.
