The house has two bedrooms with double beds and a third bedroom with two sets of bunk beds, which makes it ideal for two families to share. A large fireplace in the lounge and the eight-seater table in the country kitchen will ensure a comfortable stay for your family and friends. This spacious Victorian cottage is perfectly positioned in the Historic Core of Stanford. Bedding and towels are included, as well as DStv, a braai area and your pets are welcome to join. Relax on the vine-covered patio at another large table for long Summer lunches while overlooking the garden filled with fruit trees. The boulles court is a fun way to spend the afternoon and the hot outdoor shower is wonderful for a quick rinse-off after a day on the river.
Stanford is a wonderful little village and it is our privilege to host people from far and wide to come and experience Stanford like a local and enjoy all the village has to offer from our beloved Blue House which is centrally situated in the middle of the town.
The Blue House is situated in the quaint little town of Stanford in the Western Cape, between Hermanus and Gans Bay. This is the ideal accommodation to explore the Overberg area as well as the coast. Take a stroll down the road to the river for a paddle, a birding boat trip or a meander on the banks of the Klein Rivier and estuary.
