A few little moments from around the creek lately 🌿

The trails are green again, the hammock afternoons are back, and things feel like spring on the coast again.

Quiet mornings, fresh air, coffee outside, hammok naps, time by the water… it’s a pretty good time of year to be here.

Tucked just a short walk from the main house, the Cherry Cabin is a quiet, private little escape for one or two.

Filled with natural light from the windows and skylight, with soft garden views and a wraparound deck (plus a hammock for slow mornings), it’s the kind of place you come to unwind and breathe a little deeper.

Simple, cozy, and quiet.

Add a sauna session if you feel like relaxing a little more.

Pet-friendly (with small deposit) too 🐾

Every good travellers lodge should have one of these! For 22 years now I’ve been meaning to build a ‘Destination Arrow sign post’, and only yesterday it finally got placed. Already we’ve seen people photographing it. Tuktoyaktuk ranks as the most northerly , but Cape Town as the furthest distance at 16,474km.
