+              When we first saw Die Opstal, the gables were crumbling, the orchard overgrown,
+              and the yellowwood floors buried under decades of dust. We spent two years
+              restoring every door frame, every window sash, and every fireplace — keeping
+              the soul of the original homestead intact.
+            </p>
+            <p className="text-base text-[#2c331f]/80 leading-relaxed mb-4">
+              Today, breakfast is made from free-range eggs laid by our own chickens, peaches
+              from the orchard, and sourdough baked in the wood‑fired oven. The hens scratch
+              under the fig trees while guests sip coffee on the stoep, watching the mist burn
+              off the Franschhoek mountains.
