Sterrekopje Farm

The kind of place where you’re awakened by birdsong and lulled to sleep by the chirp of crickets, Sterrekopje Farm is 50 hectares of farmland, gardens, a bath house and luxury quarters just outside the village of Franschhoek, South Africa, where the approach to how you spend your time is holistic but not prescriptive. The focus is on rest, but you’re encouraged to take on roles you might not yet have lived, too: play baker, yogi, horse groomer, potter, farmer-forager. All three-, five- or seven-day retreats include a series of rituals developed by holistic practitioners to help restore your body and soul. As for its looks, the interiors are masterpieces of upscale rusticity, with nature-led colour combinations, one-off artworks, corners brightened with graceful meadow flowers. Its tools are gentle – a little soul-prodding here, some mind-opening there – but at this picturesque remove, it could have the power to craft you anew.

Sterrekopje Farm is a 50-hectare estate in Franschhoek in South Africa’s Western Cape.
