Olive Stone Farm is a small, charming farm located in the center of Montagu town in the Western Cape. The farm is characterized by its architecture, welcoming warmth, beauty, and attention to detail.
This farm has been lovingly transformed from what was once simply a piece of land populated with olive trees into a working farm and offers off-the-grid self-catering cottage accommodation. The cottages are built out of stone that was sorted and collected from farms outside Montagu and was carefully designed and built by Andrew and Elaine Hare. A hand-packed stone barn and animal kraal, a thriving vegetable garden and natural stone swimming pools all adds to its character. It is home to chickens, ducks, sheep, and even a tamed guinea fowl or two.
Each 46-square meter cottage is very private and built between the olive trees and the Langeberg mountains which makes it the perfect destination as a couples retreat.
For those hot summer Karoo days and nights, the cottages have rock plunge pools, sun loungers, sun umbrellas, and ceiling fans inside the cottages.
For the cold winter months each cottage has a wood fired hot tub, electric blankets on the beds, a mobile gas heater, a panel heater and an indoor fireplace.
The cottages have king sized beds, hot inside and outside showers and the self-catering kitchens are fully equipped with all you need. The gas oven and stove allow the cottage to be as off-grid as much as possible (no microwave). Batteries and inverters offer back up power sources.
Free limited Wi-Fi is available. Parking available at each cottage.
Area Information:Olive Stone Farm produces its own delicious olive oil, bottled olives, vegetables (guests are welcome to make use of the vegetable and salad garden) and proper free-range eggs. In autumn the Mission and Frantoio olives are hand-picked and pressed to produce oil that is soft on the palate and sweet to the taste.
Guests can be accommodated on the farm in either Olive Cottage (super king or twin bed), Stone Cottage (king or twin bed), or Farm cottage (super king or twin bed). All rooms are non smoking but you are welcome to smoke on the patio.
Children only allowed with prior arrangement.
With the free roaming chickens, ducks and sheep only well behaved pets will be allowed at owner’s discretion.

Buying dried fruit and many other tasty things at Cape Dry
Beautiful setting, lot of attractions around.
Wonderful atmosphere and most welcoming and friendly residents. A true Gem with beautiful views and excellent hiking experiences. A peaceful and beautiful place with lots of exciting activities for everyone
The tranquility, historical few places, cleanliness and friendly inhabitants.
Came up to Montagu for a climbing course with Blue Mountain Adventures and stayed at the Tolhuis with two friends. It was just perfect. Firstly the location, it was only mere meters away from our first day's location for climbing , LEGOLAND. We could literally stop and walk up to our accommodation for a coffee and lunch break! The place itself was just perfect for the 3 of us. Great little braai area where we enjoyed our evenings and the place is simple and humble yet stylish! The hosts, Michelle, Ivan, and Jason their 6-month-old puppy were just very warm and accommodating. Thank you!
Climbing at Lego Land, Hiking, and cycling (there is a little history town cycle tour).
Quietness and peace.
The beautiful nature. The view of the mountain.
