Meet Groen: the garden cottage

Groen is a cottage of its own, with a private garden and its own small pool beside a patterned tile wall.

Inside are an open lounge and kitchen with glass doors to the garden, and a bedroom that opens to the outside as well.

It is the unit for long summer afternoons: a swim, a book, a glass of something cold, and the green of the garden all around.

The name comes from the young green wheat that covers the Swartland after the winter rains.
