Nellie's Needle
Nellie's Needle
Nellie van der Merwe from Wellington was the second youngest daughter from a family of 13 children. Oupa Carel used to tell how he crossed the Slanghoek Mountains on foot to visit his sweetheart Nellie on weekends. Cottage 4 is the only one with a view of the hole in the Slanghoek Mountains. It reminds us of the eye of a needle and Ouma Nellie’s love for needlework, knitting, and especially the finest crochet work.
