At first glance you might imagine it to be a quaint little cottage from a children's fairytale hidden away amongst the trees, but in reality it is quite the opposite.
This is a blockhouse that was built in 1901 during the Anglo-Boer war by the British to protect the railway bridges from Boer attacks. They built two in Wolseley of which this is the Southern one. These blockhouses could house 20 men with water, ammunition and supplies. The bottom level was used for storage, the middle floor was the "living area" and the top floor was the "look-out" deck.
1000 of these blockhouses were built, but very few survived, which is actually quite sad.
It is situated on the R43 in Wolseley and is accessible for tours.

The Breedekloof region is renowned for its exceptional Chenin Blanc, a variety that shines in every bottle. With its high acidity, Chenin Blanc is incredibly versatile, creating everything from sparkling wines to beautifully balanced dessert wines.
Did you know? Chenin Blanc is the most widely planted grape variety in South Africa and was once known as Steen. Itโs even believed to be one of the first varieties planted in South Africa by Jan van Riebeeck in 1655!
