This is a hidden gem. Beautiful surroundings. The geranium and rose cordial was very refreshing. We were greeted with a friendly tortoise in the parking area.

Loved the muffins and coffee as well as browsing in the well stocked shop. I bought Lavender Marmalade as well as essential oils. Beautiful quaint place to visit amongst the trees.

Great to see how the products are made in the tour. The lavender, olive oil & rose geranium products are out of this world! Really great to support a local business in the area. A visit should definitely be on your list when in Robertson.

We had a quick visit at the farm to see what it was about.
They sell amazing natural products to eat and for body care.
They have also a little coffee shop set in the olive and lavender grove.
The perfect place to refill your stocks of olive oil!

Great friendly and intimate reception. Very knowledgeable.
Wheelchair accessibility is quite challenging though and menu is very limited but the quality is good.

Thanks. We have reduced our food offerings during the Covid crisis to protect our staff but can hopefully review this later this year.

Lovely products and beautiful gardens. It really is worth just popping in, even if you didn't plan to originally do so.

The Owl's Rest was opposite our AirBnB - Umami - so we were able to walk across and enjoy a cup of coffee and lavender bran muffin at the same time as their beautiful gardens filled with olive trees and lavender! Definitely worth a visit to meet Trish and Mami too!

OWLS REST OLIVE AND LAVENDER FARM - ROBERTSON. This amazing little gem is located at the foothills of the Langeberg mountains on the Klaasvoogds Meander in Robertson. Lavender, rose geranium, rosemary and olives are all passionately transformed into an amazing product range, body products, essential oils, refreshing cordials, tasty preserves and delicious wholesome food. Arrange for the farm tour if you do visit so the owners, Hadley and Patricia, can share their amazing offer with you. Definitely worth a visit. #olives #lavenderessentialoil #rosemaryoil #rosegeraniumessentialoil #oliveoil #robertsonwinevalley #robertsontourism #winevalleysafari #klaasvoogds #klaasvoogdsmeander #westerncape #visitsouthafrica

Pop in for a homemade cordial and some Turkish delight and stock up on all your Lavender products from essential oils to laundry detergent. Can't wait to try my cordial in a G&T.

Can I bring a very well behaved dog on a leash?

I'm not quite sure as they do have 2-3 dogs that roam around the farm. I would recommend phoning or emailing beforehand to find out just in case their animals aren't well socialised with other animals.
