Guest lounge with movie option (screen and projector with large DVD selection; DVD player available - just bring your laptop), mini-library and variety of board/card games as well as sports equipment available. Large communal kitchen (with gas cooker for load-shedding - and a range of coffee-making options), with dining area (dining table with seating for four, with alternate 'informal' table with seating for two); front stoep facing the street but screened by shrubs; braai area and back stoep (with dart board) and small garden. Laundry (clothes washing and drying) facilities available in kitchen area. Ironing available, on request and with advance notice. Host lives in separate section of the house, adjoining the kitchen and sharing the communal kitchen and the main (communal) bathroom, as well as the righthand-side LU garage. In respect of Covid-19 practices, we will maintain 'social distancing' and sanitisers will be on hand, in your room, at the main entrance and in the common kitchen. Residential area in this small, quiet and farming-based town that is almost entirely surrounded by mountains, with the Theewaterskloof Dam and golf course nearby. Easy walking distance to shops along main street, including grocery stores (Spar, OK Foods, USave), coffee shops and restaurants, Villiersdorp Cellar (wine-tasting and sales), Dale (and Mel) Elliott Art Gallery, public library and the tractor museum. Skilpad Theatre (Vyeboom area) is roughly 20 minutes' driving distance away. Well-located base, roughly centred between the urban centres of Worcester and Caledon, and the attractions of Franschoek (including hiking trails) and the Elgin Valley (including Cape Canopy Tours, Railway Market). Notes: - Uncapped (NOT high-speed - max 4MBPS download; 1MBPS upload) wi-fi is via line-of-sight (radio dish to tower) so can be limited/impacted during inclement weather. - Network (cell and wi-fi) in the area is generally good but is not always reliable or available, and is negatively impacted during load-shedding. - Resident dogs, Firefly and Django :)
