Just 90 minutes from Cape Town and part of the Cape Winelands. This tranquil farming valley is nestled between three mountains, The Groot Winterhoek, The Witzenberg, and the Obiqua.
The Boathouse consists of an open plan living room with a dining table, a fully equipped kitchen & scullery (with dishwasher), a queen-sized air-conditioned bedroom with white percale linen and an en-suite bathroom with shower. For those cold winter days, there is a log fire in the living room and underfloor heating throughout.
The living area and bedroom open out on to the wrap-around patio overlooking the water, with a hot tub. The patio has a barbecue/braai and dining area.
On the lower level, there is a ladder to access the water for swimming (swimming towels are provided) as well as a kayak and life jackets for your use. Please note that all activities are at your own risk. The dam water is used for irrigating our olive orchards and is not always at its fullest capacity, especially near the end of summer.
For your convenience on arrival, there is tea, coffee, (Nespresso Machine and Plunger), milk, rusks, and ice. Firewood for the barbecue and indoor fireplace as well as firelighters.
There is also a complimentary olive tasting voucher for two, valid for your stay (closed on Sundays). Please present your voucher at the Oakhurst Olive Tasting Room to validate it.
Please note that The Boathouse can only accommodate a maximum of 2 guests.
Space is not recommended for children because of its proximity to the water.
You will be staying on a beautiful farm with exclusive use of The Boathouse, situated at Oakhurst Olives, against the slopes of the Groot Winterhoek Mountains.

There are beautiful opportunities for birdwatching, hiking on the farm tracks through the olive orchards and fynbos on the mountain, or just getting away from the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoying the afternoon naps.
We do have two very enthusiastic and friendly dogs who have complete freedom of the farm and I’m sure they will pay you a visit.

Tulbagh Reviews
Our second visit and certainly not the last. So much to do and see!
Scenery
Wine, scenery, sunset
Beautiful, historic and quaint little town. Stroll down church street and have a roosterkoek at Kole & Deeg. Highly recommend the Gin Yard at Vindoux wine farm. The Spar gets ridiculously busy on long weekends so rather come prepared unless you want to stand in line for 30 mins. The Tulbagh Nursery is awesome if you’re into gardening and plants. And take the Bain’s Kloof pass if you want a beautiful scenic route!
The quaint town, the beautiful scenery, the olive tasting.
Everything!
Wine, the history side.
We found Tulbagh to be close enough to Cape Town for a quick weekend away with family & friends.
Clean town with stunning wine farms, wine tasting and lovely restaurants.
Very picturesque with great hiking, mountain biking trails.
Lots of convenient shops in the town.
Can't wait for our next visit.
We loved our Sunday lunch at Tulbagh Hotel and Champagne tasting at Krone.
We went to Essere lodge for a weekend and loved it! Have done many wine tastings at the surrounding farms, love going there often.
