The Haven

Situated in the heart of the Robertson Valley, along the famous Route 62, The Haven welcomes families, tourists and business executives alike. It is situated on a smallholding in the town of Ashton and is centrally located for access to the Robertson Wine Valley as well as a number of other attractions.

The Haven offers eight self-catering units that can sleep 26 people in total. Each unit has an entrance and patio, and is fully equipped. All units are air-conditioned and have flat screen TVs with DStv (Limited Channels), hairdryers, cotton linen and Wi-Fi Internet access. Unit 5 (wheelchair friendly).

There is an enclosed swimming pool, a Lapa and guests can braai on their patios. There is lots of space for children to run, play and cycle.

We host weddings where the couple can be united in marriage in the beautiful jacaranda grove and the reception hosted in a marquee in the garden. There is lots of parking for guests and all the units can be rented for the families to stay in order to enjoy the tranquility of the country and attend the wedding. The wines of the Robertson Valley are supplied at cellar prices from The Original Wine Boutique at the Total Service Station.

We look forward hearing from you! Kind Regards, the Haven Self Catering Lodge.

Reviews

  • "Platform 62"

    08 November 2021

    "Cheryl is an outstanding host, the garden a joy and the views excellent."

  • "Ashton Delight"

    25 November 2019

    "Perfectly manicured garden in quant surroundings with well kept rooms and a beautiful swimming area run by a friendly couple and cool dog and cat.Ashton itself is not necessarily scenic but it is in close proximity to Robertson, Bonnievale, Montagu and Swellendam and McGregor and the Haven can accommodate many people comfortably.Once you're inside the premises away from the dug up high street and rather bizarre bridge in the heart of town, this is a lovely place to spend a relaxing weekend with family and friends or as a group keen to take in the surrounding areas."

  • "Calm, Peacefull Stay"

    18 May 2017

    "We went at the end of December and it was our first time there. We were warmly welcomed. Our duplex was neat and comfortable. The pool area was my most enjoyed space, with all the trees and beautiful surroundings. We fully enjoyed our stay and would definitely go back."

    "<div style="text-align: justify;">We visited over the weekend with friends. We had a great stay eventhough it was so short. The owners were very helpful and so kind. The rooms were beautiful equipt and so spacious.</div>"

  • "Hidden Gem"

    11 October 2015

    "We had a great stay at the Haven. The rooms are great, the gardens well cared for and there is a swimming pool to cool off in.<div><br /></div><div>We didn't use the Lapa area, but if a group of you were to stay there you might want to use it. Otherwise there is ample place on the lawns to socialise.</div><div><br /></div><div>I would recommend to couples, or a few friends wanting to get away together for 2-4 days.</div><div><br /></div><div>Close to all the wine farms - Roberston, Bonnivale and Montegue. We will return.</div>"

  • "Pleasant surprise"

    11 August 2015

    "It was indeed a welcome surprise / a true hidden gem. We were treated like "friends" not just paying customers. The room was clean, very comfortable, with everything one can ask for. Lay-out very good. Thank you very much for your awesome service."

  • "Peaceful haven"

  • "Awesome place"

    27 November 2013

    "This is a very awesome place.Nice and relaxing, very quiet."

  • "Terrible"

    12 August 2013

    "You know what is terrible? The fact that this gem has stayed a secret this long. Sure, Ashton is a small town and you could blink and miss it while driving through, but that would be a mistake. Ashton is close to Robertson and Montagu and has a wonderfully quirky appeal (yes Platform 62 I'm looking at you). The Haven itself is amazing. The unit we stayed in was lovely with everything you need for a lovely self-catering getaway. The real magic happens outside the unit when you walk on to the splendid lawn. The vibe is quiet and relaxed even with a few kids running around playing games on the lawn. Families, couples, friends, groups of business men and even you, yes you will feel at home here. Book now before the Haven becomes too popular!"
