In 1674, east of the current
town of Bonnievale, on a farm nestled under the towering Langeberg
Mountains, Johannes Harman Jansz Potgieter was born.
Johannes married in 1714, and the farm appears on the grant of 1723 as Jan
Harmansz Schat (treasure)- from which it was apparently corrupted to Jan
Harmsgat.
You are invited to relax in
our exclusive country bed and breakfast guest house accommodation on an
historic farm, (established in 1723) in the beautiful Klein Karoo.
The guest house, bed and
breakfast accommodation (which is non smoking) is in understated elegance
and comfort in the farms original slave quarters, and consists of four large
en-suite rooms with an adjoining lounge. Two loft rooms and the guest lounge
boast expansive mountain views. Guests may relax by the pool with a book
from our extensive library or explore the farm and surrounding wine routes,
as well as museums and heritage sites in nearby Swellendam and surrounding
areas.
