Stillwater Cove


Our cute cottage by the coast. Rob poses for the camera while Lukas keeps an eye out for peacocks.

Since Marieke has been born, we haven't done much travelling or wkd adventures and I was starting to go kind of stir crazy. So at the last minute with some luck of a cancellation, I booked a wkd at Stillwater Cove. We had beautiful warm weather, a cute cottage on a ranch with lots of animals for the kids, great hikes right off the property and amazing coastal views. Perfect weekend to recharge!


It was mating season for the peacocks (there were 25 on the property) so the males were in constant display mode. Although they weren't aggressive, they also weren't afraid of people. And with feathers up, they easily outsized Lukas. And boy were they loud!


The ranch had sheep with an amazing view

Of course - no matter where you go - there's always the old-fashioned jump-across-the-beds fun
