The ‘Little Farmhouse’ on a farm in Stanford is a quaint hidden gem, oozing country character. Explore the forest and drink in the magnificent sunsets before the night sky shows off its sparkling beauty between the tree tops. Bring the whole family and enjoy meals under the stars, made in a real coal oven or outside on the braai. Relax in a hot forest bath under a thicket of trees and unwind.
Thick walls, dark beams, large indoor fireplace and an old Dover stove to play with. The friendly donkeys, Onkie and Penelope, munch away in the garden to the children`s delight.

The unique little village of Stanford, overlooked by the moody slopes of the Klein River Mountains, lies just inland of False Bay, forming the tip of a triangle with the coastal towns of Hermanus and De Kelders. Peaceful and largely unaffected by change, Stanford is an eclectic mix of shops, galleries, restaurants and coffee shops, and the list of activities for a largely rural village exceeds one’s expectations.
When in Stanford, go to the Birkenhead Brewery, a boutique brewery open for beer tasting and lunches and the Stanford Walking Trail, which wends its way along the banks of the Klein River through the town and offers visitors some wonderful glimpses of the many birds in the area, including the endangered Blue Crane.
Drive straight through Hermanus towards Stanford (about 20 mins from Hermanus to Stanford).
Turn left when you see the Stanford turnoff onto the R326 and travel approx. 5 km until you see the Papiesvlei / Elim sign.
Turn right onto the gravel and drive for approx. 800m, turn right (first farm on the right).
Drive slowly down the track until you see the Klein Modder sign on the left.
