Tesselaarsdal is +/-170km from Cape Town and is a rural town that has always been the exception to apartheid land laws where land ownership was for all. The descendants of the original land owners still live in the town. At purchase this property was cleared for any land claims by present owner at own expense. A Special investigation and clearance was also done at personal expense.
Tesselaarsdal is well placed to make use of the private corridor for innovative tourism ideas between Caledon, Standford and the more public Hermanus and Hemel and Aarde valley routes. (Google is your friend) Caledon will soon have the longest Cable Slide Adventure in the world. The property lends itself to camping, coffee shop, Hammock and WhatsApp coffee shop, Air B&B, remote working units (respecting your neighbours of course) Bike park, short walks and much more.
Labour / development costs can partly be carried by Government work programs. Research is everything. The MTB tracks were part of the Absa Cape Epic training rides in combination with other landowners. We could quite safely go for a walk at ten o’clock at night which our dogs loved. We have lived there +/- 14yrs. This allowed us a superb working relationship will TWK municipality and residents. We recommend speaking / Googling TWK before committing yourself.
There are eateries / coffee shops, monthly markets, bric and brac sales, and a library in Tesselaarsdal. (Google is your friend)
