Breedezicht’s location offers more to explore
nearby: the Breede River Valley, renowned
for its dramatic scenery, and the popular
Route 62, one of the longest wine routes in
the world. Homeowners on the estate are
also close to the pristine wetlands of De Hoop
Nature Reserve, which teems with wildlife
and fynbos. Not far either is South Africa’s
third-oldest town of Swellendam, where
horse riding, hiking and mountain biking
are just some of the activities on offer.
The Breedezicht Estate developers
have worked hard to create an offering
ideal for both holidaymakers and those
looking for a peaceful place to retire. With
its inviting seaside village atmosphere and
ample recreational possibilities, residents
have the choice to make estate life as laidback or adventurous as they like.
