Named after the mountain source which provides the crystal clear spring water, Silwerfontein, a declared Natural Heritage Site, (the highest status in Nature Conservation), nestles on the mountain slopes surrounding the 8km long Voelvleidam, with spectacular lake and mountain views.
Far from the bustle of city life (a one hour's drive from Cape Town), the cottage, on a one thousand hectare private estate, situated in the midst of the 270sq.km Voelvlei Nature Conservancy, is an ideal getaway for nature lovers.
Activities include swimming in the pool or the lake, bass or carp fishing, windsurfing and walking or hiking through the prestine Cape Flora.
Silwerfontein is conveniently situated near the historic town of Tulbagh and its adjacent wine estates.
