CALITZDORP ACCOMMODATION

MATJIESVLEI GUEST FARM

Overview

Matjiesvlei Guest Farm is a must see when visiting the Klein Karoo. Come enjoy the serene and tranquil beauty of this valley, situated at the foothills of the Swartberg Mountains between Calitzdorp and Ladismith. Farming in this area dates back as far as 1821.

We offer you a peaceful, relaxing stay in one of our four self catering units – Douglas-huis, Thiart-huis, Cloete-huis and Huis Oppie Rant. If you prefer being even closer to nature you can unwind at our camping site, Die Damrivierkamp (the dam river camp), situated on the shores of the Gamka River.

We invite you to come kick back and relax. Enjoy some of our delightful local wines while savouring the tranquil beauty as only Mother Nature can provide.
