Where you’ll be

Groot Brakrivier, Western Cape, South Africa

'Hoboken Holiday Cottage' is 14 km from George Airport in a Village known as Glentana in the Western Cape.

Glentana is located between George and Mosselbay, Western Cape, South Africa on the Indian Ocean. The village was established in the early 20th century. Beautiful Beaches, stunning sunrises/sunsets, with daily views of dolphins. Whale sightings are seasonal during our cooler winter months.

Glentana Ship Wreck - a British steamer Baralong that was towing a floating dock passing Mosselbay to Durban in 1902. Its length was 380 feet and 80 ft wide. On 30 October 1902, the dock beached not too far from Glentana main beach, a must walk that can only be done at low tide. Enjoyable hike to Glentana Wreck 2.5km from main beach. NB: Can only be hiked at Low Tide.

We have a number of restaurants in our area - just to mention a few - ''Pepper Boom' (Grootbrak), 'Seeplaas' (Grootbrak) stunning views, Jackalsvlei (Herbertsdale) great drive, where you can pick your own grapes in their Vineyards in February, another stunner is breakfast at the top of Mosselbay light house....'Below The Lighthouse', there are many more....

Two NEW restaurants at our Glentana main beach 2km from Hoboken Holiday Cottage - 'Glentana Cafe' and 'Meet at Sea'.

Another great adventure in Mosselbay is the Zipline that starts on the top of the Mountain then runs over breaking waves and ends near the Mosselbay beach parking area.
