Directions

The village of Darling is an easy drive from Cape Town.

• Head north taking the R27 for about 80kms and wave good bye to Table Mountain as it recedes in your rear view mirror.
• The R27, West Coast Road can be accessed from the N1 or the M5 out of Cape Town.
• Follow the R27 through Tableview and up towards Melkbos.
• At the Melkbos intersection, continue straight on for about 12km and then turn right at the sign to Atlantis (R307).
• Follow this road to the T-junction and then turn left towards Darling on the R304.
• Meander gently up and over the hills through the countryside dotted with sheep and cows, past the turning to Malmesbury and onwards for the last few kilometers to Darling.
• As you enter Darling through the avenue of gum trees, take the first road to the left and then turn immediately left again into Vygie Street.
• Follow Vygie Street as it curves up to the right and then turn left at the entrance between the white walls, this is Langeveldt View.
• Thought Cottage is the cottage parallel to the road on your right as you turn to your left. Welcome.

Please note - the directions given are for the more scenic route, which is also a bit shorter than the route straight up the West Coast Road.

If you choose to take the West Coast Road all the way, turn right at the Yzerfontein intersection and proceed into Darling. At the stop street, turn left go over the 4-way stop and head for the other side of Darling, turn right just before the row of gum trees starts on your right hand side and then immediately left into Vygie street………see above.
