Hmmm - now THIS is a treat. You definitely have to book ... intimate with hand crafted extraordinary cheeses, home grown salads in a bucolic setting. A MUST do!

While this is a 45 min. drive east of Plett, no holiday in this part of SA is complete without a visit. The experience is truly world class. Alja Van Deventer operates a dairy farm, but his passion is food, particularly making fine cheeses in small quantities. He serves lunch daily (you need to book well in advance) to about 20 guests on the stoep of his home, overlooking the idyllic farm dam, with a backdrop of the beautiful Tsitsikamma mountains. Lunch consists of two salads (one green with a hint of crunchy fried cheese strips and Alja’s exquisite dressing, and the other a Caprese with beautiful ripe tomatoes and Alja’s mozzarella). Then there is a platter with a range of cheeses of different textures and strengths accompanied by as much hot, freshly baked foccacia as you want. Lunch concludes with a dessert such as a pie accompanied by ice cream made from the farm’s milk. Everything comes from the farm except the wine (and Alja says he’s working on that). Lee and I have been here at least 25 times and have never been disappointed, nor have any of the many friends and family, both local and international, we have brought here.

On the veranda at Alje’s working cheese farm overlooking the dam and Tsitsikamma mountains cheese-lovers could be forgiven for thinking they’re in heaven . There’s no menu – ingredients vary according to season. Lunch platters include a variety of raw Fynboshoek goat and cow’s milk cheeses with freshly-baked bread and home-grown garden salad, followed by homemade dessert. Limited to 20 people, salads are hand-picked, breads baked and cheeses prepared fresh each day. Booking is a must. If you find it hard to leave, Alje has a simple but lovely cottage sleeping up to 4. Purposefully without electricity, his cottage offers a real escape from which to enjoy the natural surroundings. Artisan cheese-making demonstrations can be arranged. To see raw milk transform into cheese is quite something www.fynboshoek.co.za

A rural relaxed setting. Serving homemade cheese and bread from chef and cheesemaker extraordinaire. Take your own wine and enjoy an afternoon on the farm porch. In Tsitsikamma, about 40 min from Forestchild S/C
