With its head quarters situated on the foot of the Helderberg Mountain - Somerset West, in the Western Cape, Big Five Golf Tours. Barlinka Cottages is ideally positioned for your ultimate pleasure.

Whether it is golf, beach, mountain walks, wild game viewing, site seeing, shopping, relaxing or a combination of all or some of the above, our geographic position is absolutely perfect.

You will love being surrounded by some of the most stunning golf courses such as the Erinvale Golf Course, in the Western Cape, where the likes of Ernie Els, and Collin Montgomery putted for a Million Dollars in 1998, or experience the blue sea, white surf and golden sand of the majestic Strand Beach only a few minutes away.

There are two very exclusive cottages on our property (each sleeping two people). Should your party, however, consist of more than four, we will organize, literally within walking distance, other cottages of an equally high standard for the remainder of your party. As these have been scrutinized by ourselves, we have no hesitation in recommending them and we are confident that they too only wish to offer the best of service to our guests.

Our cottages are self-catering. They are stylishly decorated in an African theme, which flows throughout. The open-plan kitchen is equipped with mini-stove, full fridge and all the crockery, cutlery and other implements necessary to make your stay an easy and pleasant experience. The lounge area is comfortably furnished and for those who wish to be 'couch potatoes' there is a T.V with access to the major channels.

The double bedroom contains a queen size bed and adequate built-in cupboards and wardrobes. Each bedroom has a bedside clock/radio and a hairdryer is provided. There is an en-suite bathroom with shower.

The cottages are fully serviced and tea and coffee is provided for that first cup of the day. There is a small verandah at the front of each cottage with a bench table and chairs, looking on to a pretty, private garden and small Jacuzzi/pool. Guests are free to use the pool whenever they wish and can even savour the water on cool nights as it is heated, an additional luxury. Pool towels and poolside lounging chairs are provided for the comfort of our guests.

There is even a cosy, private bar, which opens on to the pool where guests can enjoy a sundowner or two, or an ice cold beer at the end of a busy day.

Access to the cottages is gained via a private path and there is a reserved parking area for cars.
