Moonrise Dome - La Bruyere farm

The property is situated on a magical farm in Tulbagh surrounded by breathtaking mountain scenes. There were the cutest little field mice and so many different birds and natural treasures to discover! The shower has a stunning view of pine trees and mountains and the stars are an absolute wonder to behold. The dome itself is extremely unique and if you love nature and adventure, this is a must!

The property isn’t 100% kitted for winter. It was extremely cold on our first night, and some added blankets, outside heaters etc. would have been great. This is set on a farm, so if you’re a clean freak it’s not going to tickle your fancy as the outside will inevitably find its way in, but we absolutely loved it! Some small improvements could include having hand soap in the kitchen, new towels (these were a bit past their due date and I think for the price should be upgraded), and some extra heating for winter.

The shower and the kitchen were amazing

The location was amazing and just made one want to relax

Beautiful natural scenery

Gas heaters in tents are highly dangerous due to CO2 and CO buildup, an oil heater would make much more sense. The nearest town is about 15 minutes away, ten of which are on dirt roads - this in itself is awesome. However, if the tap water is yellow brown and the host doesn't even supply 500ml of bottle water this is a grave issue!
