Goodwill Mountain Farm
x
Permaculture is the philosophy of working with, rather than against nature...of protracted and thoughtful observation, rather than protracted and thoughtless labour.
The Villa is a new addition to Goodwill Mountain Farm and has been refurbished in such a way that it totally blends in with the landscape allowing you to fully experience your natural surroundings at their best.
Oak and Pine Cottages are original farm labourer’s quarters that have been lovingly restored and refurbished to create a unique and laid back living experience.
The kitchen is fully equipped with all the necessary appliances and there is a separate scullery with the convenience of an additional gas stove and refrigerator.
This is the master bedroom and has a King-size bed that can be separated to make two single beds. The ensuite bathroom has a bath, shower, basin and toilet.

“Perfect place to recharge and de-stress. Take long walks and afternoon naps. Explore nearby markets and farms for great product, try the Ou Meul bakery in town for the best bread and you are set for a long lazy lunch under the trees at your cottage. We will be back soon!” Liesbet S
“We spent a lovely weekend at Goodwill Mountain enjoying all the great things to do around Stanford and Hermanus. You can literally stroll up to e.g. Stanford Hills Estate and Hermanus is 20 minutes away. The cottage is very well laid out and simply furnished and you can sit and enjoy the view over the fields. Our dog also had a wonderful time roaming the fields. Rishi and Bodhi are wonderful hosts!” Kristina M
