‘COUNTRY LIVING 🍃 | Upon arrival at Jonkmanshof the owners offered us some freshly-made iced tea while we were oriented and made to feel at home. We would be spending just one night in this beautiful home in Montagu, which from the outside looked to me like an old museum. I had no idea what we’d find on the other side of that mustard-yellow facade and green window shutter. Perfectly curated and filled with interesting decorative pieces, each room was an adventure! I felt like I was in an art gallery / museum and yet at the same time it easily felt comfortable and warm as any home should.

The story of this unique property and how it became what it is today is just as interesting and inspiring as everything this home is filled with. I highly recommend a visit to Montagu! Photographic property tour to follow! I’m so excited to show you what I photographed but for now, is this not the cutest courtyard?’

JONKMANSHOF

Situated 180 kilometres outside of Cape Town, on the meandering Route 62, lies the picturesque town of Montagu. Mother City slickers familiar with the culinary and home décor offering of the Hemelhuijs restaurant, will be gratified by owner Jacques Erasmus’ country extension. Truth be told, the Jonkmanshof experience will probably exceed any expectation (even that of the most determinedly cynical urbanite).

Set within a 165-year-old Cape Dutch farmhouse, everything about Jonkmanshof whispers homegrown goodness. From the personally curated collection of antiques, to the treasures of the property’s library (or “Room of Curiosities” as it is fondly known, thanks to the collection of books, tapestries, ceramics and more), locally grown and sourced produce and products grace your table, pillow and bathroom. The home is known as “the house where lemons grow”, and we love how the citrus theme is executed with considered style.

Bonus points are given for Jacques and partner Hein’s beautifully curated De Nagmaal farm shop: brimming with locally handcrafted and sourced products. These include ceramics (by the likes of Noleen Reid and Lissa Claassens), tea towels and candles, preserves and jams (courtesy of Jacques’ mother), and seeds and herbs from the garden.’
