Our Nel Family

The Nel family have been farming on Vanrhynshoek for almost 100 years (1925 – 2022). It has always been a family dream to build a house on top of the Hantam Mountain. The house is proudly ‘designed’ by ourselves. We want guests to enjoy spacious bedrooms, open living spaces decorated in an artistic, minimalistic style with personal touches. The main focal point remains the celebration of our beautiful natural scenery. Enjoy Majestic mountain views while relaxing in the hot tub.
There are no other dwellings in sight.
Hantamland is a retreat where nature can be celebrated in all its glory.
