    Friendly hosts and beautiful surroundings. You can pop over the de Pakys Pass if you are keen to hike. Loved the orange and pecan trees in the garden and the hot tub and indoor fireplace were much used and appreciated. If you get hot you can dip...

Property info

The farm Boskloof Swemgat is situated about 10 km from Clanwilliam in the Boskloof Valley, a magnificent unspoiled area, bordering on the Cederberg Wilderness Area. The Jan Dissels River flows through the valley and the farm was named after a favourite rock pool the river forms in the middle of the land "Swemgat". The accommodation is self-catering with warm farm style hospitality. Cottages are set along the river banks with beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. Four thatch-roofed cottages, 2 corrugated iron-roofed and 1 prefab cottage offer fully equipped kitchens, full bathrooms, bed linen and bath towels are provided. Most of the cottages have indoor fireplaces and all have outside braai facilities. Two cottages have a private Jacuzzi. Wood and homemade products are for sale at the kiosk for your convenience.
