House Tour – Klein Karoo bejewelled cottage

House Tour – Klein Karoo bejewelled cottage

Rosheen's Karoo home

A home is very often an extension of who we are and this gorgeous farm cottage is definitely a case in point. Owner Rosheen is a seasoned globe trotter and ex Jozi girl who, to her surprise and delight, now calls the Klein Karoo home. Danielskraal Farm, Calitzdorp to be exact. 

The bejewelled cottage is tiny in size yet that hasn’t stopped Rosheen from decorating to her heart’s content. Rosheen’s flamboyant and exuberant character traits are evident in the bold choice of decor. There’s no following of rules here and she adeptly combines old and new and flirts with a variety of styles. It’s the perfect playground for her creative expression. Rosheen is passionate about supporting Calitzdorp, especially its budding entrepreneurs and artists and you’ll spot a number of local artworks dotted around her home. She shares that the move to the farm has been gold for her soul.

If you’re longing for a touch of Klein Karoo flavour and quirkiness then why not book yourself a luxurious getaway at the main farmhouse. Danielskraal sleeps 8 and is a welcoming space in which to unwind, relax and rejuvenate – the verandah is pure heaven!
