Porcupine Peak
Montagu
Chalet, Self Catering
(8
rooms)
(38 customer reviews)
Close to the top of Rooihoogte pass, at the entrance to the beautiful Koo Valley, sits Porcupine Peak Farm. 500 ha of rugged Karoo rock and shale terrain with magnificent mountain vistas of the Langeberg Mountain range, indigenous Fynbos, a riverbed lined with majestic Oak trees, Pecan nut trees and a perennial spring of bottling quality water.
Fauna includes the rooikat, duiker, did-dik (buck), porcupine, wild rabbits, tortoises and frogs. The Black Eagle is often seen circling above Porcupine Peak, one of the many bird species that can be spotted on the farm.
The farm is called Porcupine Peak due to the numerous amount of porcupine quills found in the impressive kloof above the mountain cottage and rockpool. Previously it was known as Waboom Mountain Farm, named after the mountain range on the property. The existing buildings, dating back to 1875, are comprised of a farm house, 2 caravans, a campsite and 6 cottages, all beautifully renovated offering guests a welcoming bygone feeling.

"If ever you need a break from work, cellphones, city life or just need time all by yourself, this is the place to stay! The bird life is incredible and on the wonderful hikes you will discover amazing plants. You have your own refreshing spring water and your own private rock pool. Tne 2 tiny frogs didn't mind sharing the pool at all. The view from the bedroom makes you want to stay forever. My hosts are lovely people and really caring.. there is actually too much good to mention. Just go and see "
