Loadshedding Proof

Oakhurst Farm Cottages is a highly recommended property for self catering in Wilderness for anyone visiting the Garden Route region.

Sitting high above the Wilderness Lakes in rural Hoekwil, Oakhurst Farm has got the getaway recipe down to a tee: plenty of good ol' farm fun, clean country air, and a platter of rustic-luxury accommodation that will knock your socks off.

Self Catering Accommodation

You're spoilt for choice at Oakhurst. From the historic Forge, one of the very first buildings on the farm, to the beautifully restored and fun-filled Farm Cottages.

All of Oakhurst's accommodation comes with personal touches, extra comforts and a great spread of farm activities. It's all about comfort, relaxation and if you're up for it, getting stuck into the Oakhurst action.

Please see the individual cottage or unit descriptions and photographs below, to assist you with your choice.

Please Note

Due to the The Forge structure being a mix of canvas roller blinds, natural stone and timber decking, you're likely to encounter a few creepy crawlies and extra drafts.

Family-friendly Stays

Oakhurst Farm Cottages are the ideal getaway for families because there is so much for little ones to see and do (not giving their electronics a second thought). They can explore the trails through the forests or along farm roads on their bicycles, or they can visit the dairy cows while they are being milked. They can go horse-riding or sit around the fire pit with their parents. The Crow's Nest is a treehouse, from where they can watch the world go by. There is also a climbing wall and a slide on the very edge of the forest and right in front of the cottages so that your children are always visible. This is a children's wonderland and a parent's paradise.

Loadshedding Facilities

What is loadshedding? It refers to the temporary suspension of electricity provided by Eskom, South Africa's electricity provider, to reduce consumption and thereby the load on the national grid. To compensate, South African property owners are turning to solar power, inverters with backup batteries or in some cases generators to keep the power on, wherever feasible.
