“Loved the location, of course! It was amazing to be able to walk into the game area. I wish we had chosen a building out in that area, but we opted for the cheaper, 3 bed room in the main building.”

Company info

We bought a farm we wanted to love, not just cottages we wanted to rent. Our children love it, and so do we! The farm was built with animals and children in mind. We love the outdoors, and we wanted a place that would welcome like minded people, especially smaller ones. The dream of the farm proper was born out of the ashes of difficult personal times, which drove us to seek a sanctuary where we could recharge our batteries, and where our younger ones could immerse themselves in the beauty and the simplicity of the land.

Property info

A stunning quiet paradise for wildlife and people alike. A place to relax quietly, and enjoy our Giraffe, Bontebok, Eland, Springbok, Reebok, Waterbuck, Sable, Kudu and many more on the farm! Simple, rugged, but beautiful all in one. A place for the traveler seeking peace and quiet, surrounded by fabulous scenery and animals.

Neighborhood info

Swellendam is a beautiful, quiet, friendly little town. You will love the atmosphere. Our springbok love it here!
