Moon Cabin

Moon Cabin is nestled in the centre of Barrydale which rests beneath the majestic spires of the Langeberg mountain range. It's 3 streets from the local restaurants, shops and pubs. The Cabin is a separate guest house on a large green plot with the main house far away enough for guest's privacy. The Cabin is designed to be 'modern rustic' with beautiful light, modern appliances, comfortable beds and quiet serenity. We have wifi & a backup battery for running devices during loadshedding.

EcoTreehouse luxury off-grid cabin

Tucked into the lush Hermitage Valley just outside Swellendam, the EcoTreehouse is a peaceful off-grid cabin designed for comfort, simplicity, and connection to nature. It’s perfect for couples, solo travellers, or small families wanting to unplug without compromising on comfort. Wake to mountain views, fall asleep to frog-song, and soak under the stars in your private wood-fired hot tub. Swim, stargaze, wander the trails, or meet the horses — this land invites you to slow down.
