People often ask us… Why Swellendam? When we tell them we have chosen this gorgeous little Western Cape town to be our forever home.

The truth is, from the moment we found Swellendam, we were hooked by her natural beauty - as the mountains loom over the picturesque, historical town and the rivers flow down across and around the town, the never-ending trails wind through the Renosterveld and wooded hills. A freedom can be felt here. A calm, peaceful escape where one can truly pause, reflect and reconnect.

Swellendam offers whatever you need her to - for steadfast residents and travelers alike - one finds a wholeness and a healing rhythm to recharge your soul to.

Plus this town is incredibly pet friendly and being the kind of people who take our furkids just about everywhere - we love sharing our town with our Swellendogs.

Come and see for your self what the third oldest town in South Africa has to offer you and your furmily!
