Rushmere farm is set low on the foot of the not so well-known pine lake yet our Southern slope is set up high in the hills of Sedgefield overlooking the breath-taking views of Pine Lake and the Outeniqua Mountains. Rushmere is one of the few remaining working farms in this area and covers a substantial 137 hectares – 40 of which are pristine protected fynbos and indigenous forest.

At Rushmere there is no shortage of healthy outdoor fun to keep you and the family busy. The cottages are situated about a kilometre from the huge pine lake. Try your luck at spotting the most famous Fish Eagle or find a great spot for fishing or simply take out one of the canoes and soar between nature.

Everyone always boast of how their destination is perfectly situated to explore the Garden Route from. Well we would like to think that we have the upper hand! 7 KM from Sedgefield, 15 from Knysna, 25 from Wilderness and 40 km from George!

To fully immerse visitors in the beauty of the surroundings, the three cottages (Fox Hound, Coon Hound and Tree Walker) overlook rolling green fields and the beautiful surrounds of the valley. Here the breath-taking Southern Cape beauty meets the Garden Route’s lesser-known farm lifestyle.

Macadamia Trees, Avocado Trees, Grazing cows, sheep, Wildlife and a few proper old school hunting hounds create a truly authentic farm experience.
