A. From CAPE TOWN Via PAARL Along the N1This is the fastest route from Cape Town if coming from the City, Northern Suburbs and follows via Paarl, Du Toitskloof Pass, either by Toll Tunnel (fastest) or by scenic drive over the pass, onto Worcester.
On approaching Worcester, take 2nd turn-off to the right into Worcester as one avoids all the traffic lights in the Main Road. Follow road over train bridge, 1 traffic light and turn left into High Street at the 2nd Traffic light bearing right as the next traffic light it's the turn-off to the right for the Robertson/Ashton/Montagu road and follow the road through these towns to Montagu and once in Montagu take the 3rd turn-off to the left which is Church Street and we are half-way up the road. 7 Church Street does have a sign on that corner.
A1. From Stelenbosh via Franschhoek
A beautiful and scenic drive: leave Stelenbosh in direction Franschhoek, travelling over Hellshoogte pass. Drive over Franschhoek pass on the R45 to Villiersdorp and on the R43 to Worcester. Take the R60 to Robertson 10km before Worcester signed Robertson/Over Hex, Robertson, Ashton and Montagu.
B. From CAPE TOWN Via SIR LOWRY'S PASS Along N2
This route is advisable when guests drive from the Cape Town International Airport directly out our way as it is easier to get onto the N2 than the N1 from there. Also if guests stay anywhere from Southern Suburbs to False Bay Coast it is the quickest.
The first major town along this route is, Somerset West, which you by-pass and carry on over the Sir Lowry's Pass through Elgin/Grabouw over the Houw Hoek Pass taking the Caledon turn-off and following through to Caledon, Riviersonderend, and then at a small place called Stormsvlei, turn left and take the route through Bonnievale Left at T Junction and right signed Ashton, Montagu which eventually joins up with the road that comes from Swellendam, turn left and follow till another T-junction faces you and turn right to Montagu. Same procedure as above via Ashton.
C. Route to MONTAGU from PORT ELIZABETH & GARDEN ROUTE
This route takes you from Port Elizabeth through Jeffrey's Bay, Plettenberg Bay via the Toll Road (fastest)or Nature's Valley (scenic) to Knysna, Wilderness and George.

Once in Montagu, take the 5th road, Church Street, to your right and you will see the big white Church at the top of the road and 7 Church Streetis half way up the road on the left hand side.
Alternatively, you can take the N2 from Wilderness via Mossel Bay, Albertinia, Riversdale, Heidelberg (The quickest way is a dirt road 17km long to Barrydale-but, this depends on your transport and driving restrictions from the hire company-see below) and turn off at Swellendam,- following the R60 to Ashton, Montagu and taking the 3rd road to the left which is Church Street and we are situated half way up the road on the left hand side.
Another scenic route would be to take the road from Heidelberg, turning off the N2 following the signs to Suurbraak, Barrydale, via the Tradouw Pass which is one of the prettiest passes in our area, joining the scenic Route 62 at Barrydale again and once in Montagu taking the 5th road to the right and you are in Church Street where we are situated on the left hand side.
