Who and why -

We "2oldbroads" in the prime of our lives just got fed-up with the hustle and bustle of city life and decided to chuck it all and reach for our dreams. We went on a journey to find the smallest town in South Africa to spend our twilight years.

In the process we stumbled upon an old church for sale in a tiny town called Bethulie. (meaning "Chosen by God")             

It took us 2 years of negotiations to finally own the church but in the process we discovered the rich history of the area and met the most amazing people - what a bonus.

 

What -

It is our intention to convert the church into a home while researching and recording the rich history of the church thus preserving it for future generations.  

We are in the process of developing a mystical garden where the public can come for adventures and picnics. 

Once the restoration of the church is complete we intend keeping ourselves busy with our passions, woodwork & glasswork, however, new challenges lie around each corner and we intend making the most of each and every one of them.

 

Where -

We are located in the old Methodist church on the northern boundary of Bethulie,  nestled between the Bethulie dam and the Gariep dam( previously Hendrik Verwoerd dam).
