What gets put up around Western Cape
Winter rain, not summer storms, is the test in the Western Cape. Cold fronts bring wet, windy weather through the middle of the year, so roofs, flashings and a raised, sealed floor matter. In Cape Town, backyard rooms go up in Khayelitsha, Mitchells Plain, Delft and Gugulethu, and granny flats are common in the northern and southern suburbs where the zoning allows a second dwelling. Winelands farms around Stellenbosch, Paarl and Franschhoek add staff cottages and guest units, and the Garden Route from Mossel Bay to Plettenberg Bay builds timber homes and holiday cabins. The south easter hits hard in summer. Fire risk in fynbos areas and heritage rules in some towns are worth checking before you order.
Typical wendy houses requests in the area come from:
- Backyard landlords and families: a lined wendy room to rent out in the backyard, with its own door
- Homeowners: a garden office, play room or extra bedroom put up behind the house
- Farms and smallholdings: a store, feed room or staff room near the farm sheds
- Lodges, guest farms and resorts: a small timber room for staff, linen or a reception at a campsite

On the ground in Western Cape

Wooden houses and log homes suit plots near Knysna, Sedgefield and Wilderness, where forest damp calls for good sealing.
