Serenity Homestead

The Serenity Homestead – a peaceful country escape
With breathtaking lake views and peaceful surroundings, The Serenity Homestead is the perfect destination to disconnect and unwind in nature. Set amongst rolling hills and vineyards, this spacious home offers the ultimate country retreat for couples, families or groups of friends.

Relax in the communal outdoor cedar wood barrel sauna, soak in the hot tub under the stars, or rinse off under the outdoor shower while taking in views of Yellow Rock. Wellness facilities are purpose-built and shared exclusively with guests of The Wellness Farm.

Whether you're planning a family escape, a special celebration, or a slow-paced group getaway, Serenity Homestead invites you to slow down and reconnect with what matters most.

Guests can enjoy:

• Wandering the shared 37-acre property

• Swimming or lazing by the resort-style saltwater pool

• Sipping wine beside the indoor fireplace or outdoor fire pit

• Unwinding with a glass of wine or herbal tea on the deck overlooking the mountains

OCCUPANCY & CHILD SAFETY POLICY

Our villas have a strict maximum occupancy of 10 guests in the Serenity Homestead, plus infants. At no time may the number of guests exceed the number confirmed in your booking. If unapproved additional guests are found staying during your visit, a $400 fee per extra guest will be charged to the main guest listed on the booking.

While we warmly welcome children of all ages, please note the following:

• Children are included in our standard accommodation rates, based on existing bedding.
• A complimentary porta-cot is available for children under the age of 2. Guests must supply their own linen and set up the cot themselves.
• Our dam, lake, and hot tub are unfenced, and our villas are located on unfenced sections of the property — this must be considered when booking with young children.
• For families travelling with children, we recommend booking the Hamptons Cottage or Serenity Homestead, as these are located within a fenced, private yard.
• There are no baby gates or stair barriers provided.
• Supervision of children around all areas of the property — including fireplaces, fire pits, stairs, balconies, the hot tub, pool, lake, dam, roads, and driveways — is strictly the responsibility of parents and guardians.
• The Wellness Farm Broke accepts no responsibility for incidents that occur due to lack of supervision.

Please contact management before booking if you have any concerns regarding child safety or suitability. No refunds will be issued if the property is deemed unsuitable after check-in.
