Kijk De Pot Homestay

Fran and Jay’s Homestay is situated in the Dwars River Valley surrounded by mountains and peaceful scenery – with the Simonsberg Mountain on the one side and Groot Drakenstein on the other.  Here visitors can have a cup of tea at any time and relax in the quiet of no television or barking dogs.

Overnight guests (six can be accommodated) can enjoy a spacious double room, a room with two single beds or a loft room.  Meals and drinks are provided.  Day visitors can simply relax on the veranda in amongst the lavender and rosemary bushes, where the sugarbirds come to see what is for tea.

‘Kijk de pot’ was the original name of the homestead where the ‘voortrekkers’ (Dutch pioneers) relaxed and rested their oxen.  The name means ‘to make the pot shine’.
