Patathuis
This lovely cute and basic cottage lies in a remote mountain valley near the historical town of Swellendam.
Patathuis started life as a stable. It was converted to a farmworkers cottage after the war and the new century saw it upgraded to a two bedroom cottage. It is decorated in a rural style in keeping with its history.
