Cabins Western Cape: Discover the Perfect Nature Escape
Do you ever wish that there were an effortless way to escape the city, just a short drive away? Getting away from the traffic, the noise, the demands of work and all the other entailed stresses of ordinary life is an incredibly appealing prospect. Fortunately, that’s why we exist. Just over an hour outside of Cape Town, you will find our luxury eco cabins, Western Cape, the perfect spot to get away from city life.
Our eco cabins are close enough to make them the ideal retreat for an easy weekend away, while still being far enough removed from the metropolis as to offer you an authentic experience of being submerged in nature. Once you arrive, you will find that our lodges offer a sound balance between comfort, ruggedness and sustainability, making us the ideal destination for those who enjoy and respect nature, while also enjoying the finer things in life.
A Sustainable Stay Without Sacrifice
Our cabins, Western Cape, have been built on a stretch of mountain farmland. The area has been mostly untouched by human hands for decades, allowing the lush and rich indigenous flora of the iconic Cape Floristic Region to reign supreme. This is, of course, totally intentional.
If we’re going to offer exhausted guests an escape from the industry and clamour of the city, we’d hardly want to spoil that by trampling all over the nature we’re supposed to enjoy and respect. As such, while staying at our cabins, you can fully embrace the nature that surrounds you.
As a business committed to sustainable practices, we build our cabins from recyclable and sustainable materials, use renewable energy sources such as solar, minimise waste, and have water conservation systems in place. We create little pockets of human comfort amidst an unspoiled landscape of beautiful nature. This way, you get to enjoy the wilderness guilt-free without sacrificing the comforts of your day-to-day lives.
Your Gateway to the Great Outdoors
Nature is a wonderful thing. Its mere presence is a source of joy and comfort to many. In that sense, enjoying your time in nature doesn’t require you to be constantly busy with activities. You can simply sit back and enjoy being surrounded by it, gazing out upon the sights, letting the sounds of birdsongs and the wind grace your ears, taking in the fresh scent of mountain air, touched by fynbos fragrance.
We’re well aware that not everyone just wants to sit back and relax, though. Luckily, there is much to do. While at our cabins, you can hike the mountain trails surrounding you, see the local wildlife, swim in rivers and rock pools, and much more.
Our cabins are ideally placed in the wild slopes of the Cape mountains, meaning that you’ll have easy access to a multitude of hiking trails that lead to all sorts of highlight features, including river streams, incredible rock formations and breathtaking views. Whether you’re one to take life slow or fast, you’re bound to enjoy your time at our cabins.
Designed for Simplicity and Comfort
Picture a cosy mountain cabin replete with classic rugged charm, while still possessing enough modern flair (and convenience) to give it the edge it needs to stand out as a contemporary holiday retreat. It’s inconspicuous and classy, seamlessly blending into the lush mountainside wilderness.
Our cabins, Western Cape, are designed for simplicity and comfort. With spacious but cosy interiors, plush beds, sun-soaked decks, fully equipped kitchens and inviting hot tubs, you have all that you need and more to enjoy a perfect nature retreat. These cabins were created for our guests to rest, relax and recover, whether that be from your demanding life in the city, or the full and adventurous day you’ve spent exploring the surrounding mountains.
Cabins Western Cape: A Digital Detox Destination
In a digital age, technology is a permanent aspect of modern existence, equipping us with countless invaluable tools that make our lives easier and faster. Yet, at the same time, many of us feel overwhelmed by its presence, pushed into distraction by notifications, drawn into endless loops of scrolling and often engulfed by the stress of being constantly connected.
Our cabins are the perfect spot for you to enjoy a digital detox, with the surroundings making it easy to stay away from your phone and the internet. While it’s possible (with enough discipline) to do this at home, there are easier and more enjoyable ways to conduct your digital detox. At our cabins, you can replace time spent on devices with time spent in nature. Whether you spend your days hiking and exploring, swimming and birdwatching or just relaxing and rejuvenating, you’ll most likely find that it’s much easier to stay away from modern technology when your surroundings are as inviting and gorgeous as the mountain wilderness.
Ideal for Couples and Families Alike
Whether you’re a couple, a small family or just travelling solo, our Eco Cabins are the ultimate destination. No matter which of these you may be or are included within, we have an eco cabin to accommodate you and your loved ones too.
With accommodations that range in size from those that accommodate a single traveller to those which can house a small family, we have something for everyone. This includes the ability to enjoy features such as kid-friendly trails, outdoor braai areas and easily shared spaces. Our cabins are built in a way that they foster a true sense of togetherness, allowing you to spend real quality time with those you love, deepening your bond with them all.
For solo travellers, these cabins represent a powerful way to get away and reset. Often, time alone is exactly what we need to feel grounded again. While everyday life can quickly get overwhelming, separating yourself from the city, social obligations and day-to-day tasks for just a couple of days can have an immense impact on your mental health.
And for couples, what better way to reignite a spark or strengthen a bond than to slow things down and enjoy each other’s company in a luxury eco cabin, surrounded by the mountain’s beauty?
No matter what type of trip you’re taking, our cabins are made to make it an unforgettable experience.
Local Flavour and Authentic Experiences
While the countryside is serene and often quiet, it is far from boring. For those seeking to explore more than just the hiking trails and nature surrounding our cabins, there is plenty to do, from visiting famous wine routes and to enjoying the local culture and art of historic towns.
The Cape Winelands region is a culturally rich area with a deep history connected to the land.

The faucets of that culture are in proud display in towns dotted all around the region. Here, you can enjoy delicious cuisine sourced heavily from surrounding agriculture, a thriving art scene, beautiful body of architecture and lively, welcoming people.
The region is famous for its world-class wines, which are varied in nature but uniform in their exceptional quality.

Step into one of the many wine estates around this region to enjoy your own wine tasting experience or secure a bottle to bring back and enjoy from the comfortable porch of your own eco cabin. The two most popular routes within the area are the Breedekloof Wine Valley and the Worcester Wine and Olive Route.
