Hello I am Marisha I married my husband in 2008 and moved to Mont Rouge. We are deeply connected to the farm, it has been in the family since 1928. I have a fond passion for the outdoors and it is evident. I want to invite guests to immerse themselves in the natural surroundings and embrace farm life. I have a love for home DIY projects and I love to add a personal touch to the cottages, ensuring our guests can also enjoy indoor spaces if the weather calls for it. I am a big believer in seizing every moment and making life enjoyable, whether it's soaking up the summer sun or cozying up by a fire during winter nights. So on that note have a great time.

Mont Rouge isn't your typical fruit farm; we've gone above and beyond to establish it as a sustainable business. In our family since 1928, the property derived its name, Mont Rouge, from the reddish hue of the earth in this region—Mont meaning mountain and Rouge meaning red. Beyond our export fruit house and wedding venue, we're proud to offer four charming cottages on the property. We're enveloped by mountains and nature on all sides, enhancing the overall experience. Each cottage boasts its own Wood Fire Hot Tub and outdoor BBQ area, where many of our guests spend their time. While we do offer Wi-Fi, we encourage guests to disconnect from their phones and immerse themselves in nature's embrace. We're thrilled to announce that our property is grid-tied, harnessing the power of solar energy and batteries. However, in the event of a two-day outage from Eskom and no sunlight, we may experience a power shortfall. Nonetheless, we're delighted with the progress and reliability of our transition so far. The property features a single communal pool, resembling more of a natural pond with water freely flowing in from the river and then back out again. It's ideal for cooling off during the hot summer months or using as a refreshing cold plunge to soothe sore muscles. We're conveniently located just 12km from town, making shopping easily accessible. In the surrounding area, you'll discover numerous excellent wine farms to explore, ensuring there's plenty to keep you occupied. For outdoor enthusiasts, there are plenty of cycling and running routes to enjoy, catering to everyone's interests.
