Silence, Space, and Soul: Discover Thuúla Haven in the Overberg

 

Tucked into the slopes of an 80-hectare farm in the Overberg’s Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, Thuúla Haven is where raw natural beauty meets quiet architectural elegance. 

Just 90 minutes from Cape Town, this secluded retreat offers a front-row seat to the valley’s dramatic landscapes – towering mountains, rolling vineyards, and glimmering farm dams, all wrapped in wild fynbos and open skies.

The property unfolds across three modern barns, their clean lines and natural materials blending seamlessly with the earth beneath them. Large glass doors and windows frame uninterrupted views, drawing in the light, the breeze, and the ever-changing colours of the landscape. 

One barn is home to a garage and an airy yoga and meditation studio; another offers four bedrooms and a cosy lounge; the third, a generous open-plan space with soaring ceilings, serves as the heart of the home, complete with fireplaces, long tables, and soft sofas that invite hours of connection or quiet retreat.

Life at Thuúla Haven follows a slower rhythm. Mornings begin with a dip in the dam or coffee on the veranda. Days unfold into hikes, painting, reading, or wine tasting at nearby estates. For those craving coastal charm, Hermanus and its markets, beaches, and boutiques are just a scenic drive away.

Thoughtfully designed and beautifully still, Thuúla Haven lives up to its name – Thuúla, meaning “silence” in Xhosa. A place to pause, to reconnect, and to feel deeply rooted in the natural world.

Thuúla Haven is exclusively available to rent through Perfect Hideaways.
