In 2019, a passionate couple embarked on a journey to create an experience that transcended the ordinary, an experience that encapsulates life on the Breede River and a vision that would come to be known as “Living the Breede”.

It all began with a simple idea: to immerse oneself fully in the rhythm of river life, to feel the pulse of nature coursing through one’s veins. Thus, Living the Breede was more than just a name; it’s a promise – a promise to embrace the essence of living life on the Breede River, to savour each moment, and to cherish the beauty that surrounded them.

From the historic village of Malgas to the picturesque shores of Witsand, Infanta, and Struisbaai, our properties beckon travellers to embark on a journey of discovery. Each property reflects the diverse tapestry of the Breede River, offering a range of accommodations to suit every traveller’s needs. From quaint cottages for two to majestic mansions, there’s something for everyone at Living the Breede.

But it’s not just about where you stay; it’s about how you experience the river. We believe in embracing the true spirit of the Breede River –  a spirit that is alive with adventure and possibility. Whether you’re casting a line for the perfect catch, gliding across the water on a stand-up paddleboard, or carving through the waves on a boat or water ski, there’s no shortage of excitement to be found.

As you explore the winding waterways of the Breede River, you’ll encounter a world teeming with life. From the shimmering scales of fish gliding through the water to the graceful flight of eagles soaring overhead, the river is alive with the sights and sounds of nature.

But perhaps what truly sets Living the Breede apart is the “Breede experience” itself – a unique blend of serenity, adventure, and natural beauty that captivates its soul. It’s the feeling of the sun on your face as you drift lazily down the river, the sound of laughter echoing across the water as friends and family gather together, and the sense of wonder that comes from immersing yourself in the untamed beauty of the river’s landscape.

At Living the Breede, our story is a testament to the power of nature to inspire, rejuvenate, and connect us to something greater than ourselves. We invite you into our homes, grab a seat at our table, and experience the magic of living on the Breede River for yourself.
