Lifestyle property for sale in Robertson Rural

Discover Die Laaitjie — a breathtaking ±329-hectare farm tucked into the Langeberg Mountains, bordering the Dassieshoek Nature Reserve. Just 7 km from Robertson and a two-hour drive from Cape Town, this serene retreat is rich in natural beauty, with abundant birdlife and a network of hiking and biking trails leading to hidden rock pools and sweeping views over Robertson's principal dam.

The main house, cottages, and manager's residence all enjoy spectacular sunset views of Arangieskop Mountain, which glows a brilliant orange in the late afternoon — the perfect backdrop for sundowners and slow evenings.

As the last farm before the nature reserve, Die Laaitjie offers a rare sense of privacy and peace. Yet its close proximity to town allows for connection and community — before returning to this secluded mountain oasis. Its name, Die Laaitjie, meaning 'the little draw,' comes from a traditional children's rhyme celebrating the joys of hidden, tucked-away places.

The farm is being sold as a going concern, with both hospitality and farming components in place. While the current focus has been on maintaining the hospitality offering, there is significant potential to scale up agricultural activities. With abundant water and exceptionally fertile soil, the property offers ideal conditions for expansion. The surrounding area is known for its vineyards and olive groves — crops that thrive in the region, with olives especially benefiting from the farm's strong water resources in their early growth stages.

Property Highlights:

Main Manor House: 4 en-suite bedrooms, kitchen, 2 sitting rooms, a television room, 2 fireplaces, and a swimming pool with mountain views.

Three Charming Cottages: Each with 2 bedrooms (double beds), fully equipped kitchens, and private outdoor spaces. One cottage includes an indoor and outdoor braai, a bath, and an outdoor shower.

Additional Buildings: Manager's house, laundry, workshop, old cellar/store, garage/shed, stables, and pigsties.

Water Supply: Freshwater spring delivering 54 690 m³ per annum, stored in 4 earthen dams. A waterfall-fed system provides pure drinking water for the main house, cottages, and gardens. The overflow from the waterfall is stored in a 5th earthen dam. The combined capacity of the dams is 23 500m³.

Development Potential: The farm consists of seven realigned titles, allowing for future expansion or separate ownership.

Whether you seek an exclusive private retreat, a hospitality venture, or an eco-tourism opportunity, Die Laaitjie offers a rare blend of seclusion, natural beauty, and accessibility.
