The Voyager Boutique Homestead Retreat in Piketberg has been open for two months and is fast becoming the social hub of the town as it was designed to be. As the only full-service hotel in the dorp, it fills an obvious gap but more importantly it provides a set of desperately needed third spaces where tourists and locals can comingle and conversations can flow. We look forward to its immanent publication in a number of journals and will share those images soon.

Making an entrance! The wrap-around veranda of the new and is being erected… after quite a wait… but it’s being done painstakingly and perfectly by Louisco engineers, like the epic slasto and more or less every part of this special project when there has been no compromise! We look forward to its completion.
