"An absolutely breathtaking location in a well-equipped cottage for two!"

The well-signposted Ymansdam Farm lies just outside the official Tankwa National Park, and access roads require care and patience. Deflate your tyres! Nettie and Arno are welcoming wonderful hosts. The setting of the charming "Oppiekoppie" (meaning "top of the hill") cottage is stunning with views across the Tankwa ("thirst land") all the way to the Cederberg and Ceres Mountains 150km away to the west, and the nearer Roggeveld Mountains a few km from the beautiful front verandah (with its plunge pool, which was cold - end of April 23) but refreshing! There are actually 8 seats to choose from in this two-sleeper, which is ideal for a couple wanting "time together". We had not expected the big gas-powered fridge with an ice compartment, which makes longer stays possible if you bring your own perishable food, and beverages nice and cold. The "donkey" water boiler was fun to use: the novelty for city dwellers! It was unexpectedly "not cold" and we didn't require the indoor gas heater, instead we braaied (barbequed) and sat outside around the fire absorbing the sounds of nature. Obviously, no electricity is available but the gas cooker boiled water for tea and coffee quickly. There is plenty of crockery, glassware etc. The linen and towels are great and plentiful. Lastly, the five-star "secret" of Oppiekoppie has to be the shower with a full-length window overlooking the Tankwa, so, even when in the bathroom, you can still absorb the views. Stargazing for us was tricky due to the bright moon but we got up at 2 am for a quick enjoyment of the billions of stars. We also walked around the farm and saw the two "with ablutions" campsites (five-star rural glamping) and the area for wild campers (fully self-sufficient). The profile photos do not do Ymansdam Oppiekoppie justice. They are pictorially accurate but the atmosphere. Well, you have to be there.
