Overlooking
the tranquil Langebaan lagoon, The Farmhouse Hotel is an experience to
be savoured.
Celebrated
for our pleasant staff and West Coast warmth, The Farmhouse offers guests
an authentic coastal farmstead encounter.
Alluring
to nature lovers, Langebaan offers vivid shows of spring flowers, birdlife
and an untamed coastline. Explore the lagoon, hike the neighbouring Nature
Reserve or simply relax and enjoy the sunset. The farm kitchen bakes fresh
bread and other produce daily for the popular restaurant, that serves up
hearty meals infused with West Coast culture. |
Our
guest suites, some with their own fireplace and sweeping views of the lagoon,
lead to a private poolside garden and our spacious family room and separate
dual level cottage are perfect for family getaways. The Farmhouse
Restaurant serves traditional Cape cuisine with a variety of seafood complemented
by an award winning wine list. Food is robust and hearty, filled with the
spirit of the West Coast. The Farmhouse Hotel is an unpretentious
and welcoming escape for travellers and families who appreciate the warmth
of farm style hospitality.

Defined
by its rugged shorelines, coastal vegetation, heritage fishing villages
and unpretentious lifestyle, the West Coast still holds an element of the
wild unknown. With a tangibly strong culture of fisher-folk who have been
the guardians of the land that supports them, their quaint small wooden
fishing boats and simple lives on the sea, are qualities that draw visitors
from across the globe.
Loved
by many, the dramatic coastline, changeable seas, white sandy beaches and
cerulean blue skies creep under your skin and seep into your soul.
Perhaps
the most beautiful of all the quaint villages is Langebaan, with its natural
wonders, blue lagoon and azure skies.
