Pacem offers a beautifully appointed self catering cottage in Voelklip, Hermanus, with magnificent views onto the mountain as well as sea views. Pacem is situated in a quiet area of this popular seaside holiday town.
The cottage is on the slopes of the mountain very close to the Fernkloof Nature Reserve with its abundance of fynbos, the major vegetation type of the small botanical region known as the Cape Floral Kingdom. Fynbos, or "fine bush" refers to the fine needle-like leaves of many fynbos species. The Blue Flag status Grotto Beach is about a 10-minute leisurely walk.
The main attraction of the cottage is the spacious open plan living area upstairs with its thatch roof which opens on a sunny stoep. From there you have the beautiful view on the mountain. The living room also features a dining area and kitchen. The built-in barbeque ensures a cosy get-together even during the stormy winter weather. Two large en suite bedrooms are on the ground floor.
The cottage is fully equipped.
Corrie Smit is your hostess. Needless to say, as the cottage is regarded as a single unit, guests have the cottage for themselves.

Hermanus, a very popular holiday resort, is a 90-minute drive (120 km) from Cape Town. Voelklip with its many holiday homes is a suburb of Hermanus and about 5 km from the busy town centre. Hermanus is one of the world's best land-based sites for whale watching (season - July to November). Or swim at the Blue Flag Grotto Beach, Voelklip Beach, Kamma Beach or Long Bay. A beautiful golf course, walking trails along the mountain slopes in the Fernkloof Nature Reserve and seashore, mountain biking, sailing and horse riding facilities, shops and numerous restaurants make visiting Hermanus a wonderful experience. A long late-afternoon walk on the seemingly endless Grotto Beach is one of the many reasons why visitors keep coming back to Hermanus.
