Description
Skaapwagtersrus is situated on the popular R62 on Carpe Diem Farm, four and a half kilometres from the town of Barrydale heading towards Montagu, in the Little Karoo. Perched on a hill, it is easily accessible by car and overlooks our olive groves and the neighbouring farm.

According to the locals this cottage originally served as accommodation for sheep and goat herders, dating back to roughly 100 years. The cottage is restored in such a way that it retains its former character, with facilities that are simple yet functional.

There is no electricity, so lighting is provided the old-fashioned way with gas, candles and paraffin lamps. Braai facilities and firewood are available for purchase at the main house. Pets are welcome, as long as they are well-trained.

The view of Barrydale, the sweeping scenery of the Tradouw valley, and the majestic Langeberg Mountains fill you with a sense of wonder. There is an abundance of bird-and plant life for those outdoor enthusiasts and lovely walks around the farm.

Skaapwagtersrus in Barrydale Reviewed by Louis de Waal, South Africa on . intimate getaway We absolutely loved this cosy little cottage! The interior is artfully done, unpretentious and if you want peace and quiet, this is the place to go.
Skaapwagtersrus in Barrydale Reviewed by Jen Balfour, South Africa on . Jen Balfour My husband and I did a road trip from KZN to Cape Town and stayed at many B&amp;B's. We really loved Skaapwagtersrus. The charming old stone cottage on a Karoo farm was magic. Having no electricity added to the charm, it was great to enjoy our peace and tranquility by lamp and candle light. Spotlessly clean cottage, and a very good host. Thank you Wayne.<br />
