.: A comfortable overnight at Wallovale in Elgin

Nicky and Paul Wallace very kindly put us up in one of their beautiful cottages on Wallovale in Elgin for the night

after the Winter Wine Festival on Friday. Icy cold outside, warm and comfortable inside. This is a view of their tasting room

We were given a warm welcome by Benjie the spaniel

He loves people and gets lots of attention

The cottage has a good kitchen. They have four cottages available for hire

A comfortable sitting area

And two spacious bedrooms

We chose the Blue one with its football pitch sized bed

And the bathroom has a water wise rain shower

An early morning view over the dam; a crisp sparkling champagne day in Elgin

A huge tree in the grounds

Cattle on the frosted grass. We had a lovely breakfast on the Wallaces' stoep, before heading back to Cape Town and work

A shot from the summer when everyone, including us, loves to visit the farm

and sample the excellent Paul Wallace wines and the great hospitality

Thank you so much Nicky and Paul

The cottages are available for short term hire
