Brad & Reinet Aubrey
Aquaelberg Place started off as our first small home and grew with our family. Now that the family has grown up and moved on to start their own lives, we decided to share our home and the reason why we moved here over 30 years ago. We offer panoramic mountain views, the sounds of nature and the fresh air that comes with it. Our property has beautifully furnished rooms all en-suite with private balconies or patios. each room has a private entrance. Well established gardens create secluded seating areas and balconies are perched between the trees.
We are Brad and Reinet Aubrey, the owners and your hosts and will do our best to make you feel welcome. We have been married for 30+ years and living in our home for most of those years. Reinet has been in the clothing industry since forever and Brad in construction also since forever. Hobies include running after the kids ,gardening and angling.We also enjoy traveling and meeting people from other ends of the world.
Aquaelberg Place is situated in the old quarter at the foot of the Langeberg mountains. The beginning of the hiking and mountain bike trails. This is a very quiet area and hosts many bird species. Hadidas can be heard shouting their name as they take flight and baboons barking in the adjacent forest. Within walking distance are restaurants ,pubs , museums and a shopping center
