| About Oryx House self catering holiday accommodation on the Breede River, Route 62. Oryx House is an ideal holiday house for relaxed family entertainment and can sleep up to 12 people, and is situated on the working farm Langverwacht 30km from Worcester, only 1 hour 45min from Cape Town. This private getaway offers nature lovers a peaceful haven to unwind. It nestles between Gemsbok Kop and the magnificent Breede River at the end of the Scherpenheuwel Valley. Surrounded by vines, fruit trees, olive groves, undulating mountains and the gently flowing Breede River, the rhythm of life slows down. The peace and quite of nature is happily disturbed by the familiar cry of the resident fish eagles and the chattering of a variety of kingfishers feeding in the riverbed. |
