Ekogaia Farm Cottages

'The Green Place to Stay in Cape Town'

South Africa, Western Cape, Cape Town, southern suburbs, south peninsula,
Atlantic seaboard, Noordhoek, far south peninsula.

Ekogaia Farm Cottages are situated on a private estate in the heart of old Noordhoek, with sea and mountain views. This three star self-catering holiday accommodation is ideally situated halfway between Cape Town and Cape Point.

There are two comfortable, self-contained holiday units, Spiral and Helix, set in a rambling private and secluded indigenous garden on an organic farm. The garden is a haven for wildlife and birds, with over 50 species identified on site, making it easy to imagine oneself in a nature reserve and not on the doorstep of a major city.

The ambience of the cottages is enhanced by natural materials and high quality, traditional finishes, from the refurbished ironmongery to the extensive use of sustainably harvested, locally sourced wood. There is also history in the cottages in the refurbished teak sash windows from the original Cape Town Train Station, built in 1863 and demolished nearly 50 years ago.

There is safe, on site parking with plenty of space for visiting children and dogs to explore and enjoy. Amenities, shops, restaurants, walking, hiking, fishing, kayaking, surfing and beaches are all close by.

This environmentally friendly tourist destination is designed to reduce the carbon footprint of your holiday. Built along traditional Cape cottage designs, the buildings utilise modern environmental planning, making them cool in summer and cosy in winter. They are fitted with solar water heating and boast energy conservation design, such as passive and active heating and cooling according to season.
