10. Modern accommodation with essential ammenities
Being in this guest house will make you feel like you are in the middle of nowhere.

However, the trick is that you will actually be only a short distance away from the nearest town. Large enough to accommodate up to eight guests, the guesthouse, for many, is a dream come true. It’s how well-preserved the home is, along with the expansive wineries nearby and the enchanting views that will captivate you and take you in. It is a good place to find peace and get an authentic break from city life.
