Reconnect with Nature on a Working Farm, at Forgotten Highway Guest Farm

Forgotten Highway Guest Farm

Forgotten Highway Guest Farm is located 150kms from Cape Town, and 30kms outside of Ceres, in the Western Cape.  

This immaculate guest farm is the perfect place to get away from it all, unwind and relax. It’s a place to enjoy solitude and peace.

Forgotten Highway Guest Farm is a working sheep and fruit farm.  A perfect start to your day would be to sit on your stoep with your early morning coffee and watch the farm come to life.

There is also plenty of space on the farm for walks, runs and mountain biking.

There are four separate self-catering cottages which are wheel chair accessible.  The cottages are spacious and clean and comfortably furnished.

Each has a fully equipped kitchen, Smart TV, Wi-Fi, living area, fire place, braai facilities and a garden area.  All linen and towels are supplied.

Coffee, milk, sugar and homemade rusks are a thoughtful welcoming touch.

The largest of the cottages is the Plaashuis which can accommodate eight guests and has its own jacuzzi.  This comprises three bedrooms and two bathrooms, one ensuite.  Each room has a king size bed or twin beds. The third room also has two bunk beds.

About us

Actually, Home Food and Travel offers a lot more than just reviews of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.  We also visit great destinations, receive advice from interior designers and stop to smell the roses and taste the coffee.

Our team of journalists are seasoned travels and love visiting the myriad of exciting places around South Africa.  Whether it is off the beaten track or in the heart of the top attractions of the country, we’ll be there,

Home Food and Travel advice on finding the right accommodation

So what is the right accommodation?  Well more often than not, it’s your travel budget that dictates the type of accommodation that you choose. 

Expensive is not always better.  Our team at Home Food and Travel will tell you that they have camped in areas with limited ablutions and had a wonderful holiday.  They have also spent a night in a five star hotel only to be disappointed because their expectations exceeded the experience.

The reason for your travels will also affect your choice.  A business trip requires different amenities to a beach holiday. 

Our articles, reviews and experiences can certainly help you make your decision.

Restaurants with a good mix of service, food and ambiance

To my mind a great restaurant offers three things – excellent service, great food and a wonderful ambiance.  Of these, service is the most important. 

No matter that the food is delicious and the setting delightful, poor service can ruin the occasion.  However, great service combined with mediocre meal and a plane jane restaurant can still be a pleasant night out.

We’ve eaten in restaurants that are really dirty but with incredible food and couldn’t help but give a rave review.  We’ve also hardly noticed what we ate because the setting was just amazing.

However, the best restaurants come with the best of service, food and ambiance.

Spas are the ultimate relaxation aid

How do you know when you have had a great spa experience?  The answer, of course, is when you doze off on the treatment table. 

Well that’s our theory anyway.  It also doesn’t take a grand location with enormous facilities for a spa to be really good

A small, personal spa that is owner run can result in the best massage you have ever experienced.  However, the grand spas in five star hotels offer unsurpassed facilities in an environment that just makes the stress in your shoulders and neck melt away before you even finish checking in.

Adventure!

You don’t have to be an adrenaline junky to enjoy an exciting experience.  In fact, what are commonly termed adventure activities usually have incredibly high safety standards and unblemished safety records.

Ziplining, bungy jumping and shark cage diving are all very safe.  It’s just that our mind tells us we are craaazzzzyyyy to be doing this.

On the road to great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities

If you’re driving, be safe and make use of all the wonderful farm stalls that populate South Africa’s open roads.

If you overhear somebody asking a lot of questions or see someone taking photos of empty bedrooms chances are it’s one of our Home Food and Travel team members.

We’re out looking or those great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.

See you on the road!
