1 2 3 4 5 6 Bartholomeus Klip Farmhouse

At Bartholomeus Klip you are surrounded by mountains that turn pink at sunset, farmlands stretching to the horizon, a 4 000-hectare fynbos nature reserve alive with herds of antelope, and a dam the size of a small lake – and yet you are only an hour away from Cape Town, with the winelands of Stellenbosch and Franschhoek within easy reach.

Victorian Farmhouse

You will be charmed by the country friendliness and courtesy of the staff, who take pride in welcoming you to the Victorian farmhouse and showing you to your air-conditioned bedroom, with its period bathroom and beautiful bed linen. The food is special, with lavish brunches and high teas, and a gourmet four-course dinner served in the conservatory.

Working Farm and Nature Reserve

Explore the working farm and nature reserve on foot or by mountain bike, and search for the rare geometric tortoise, or visit the buffalo and quagga breeding projects. Extensive gardens and a saltwater pool invite peaceful relaxation. The Deckhouse at the lake’s edge is ideal for weddings and small conferences. Bartholomeus Klip also offers stylish self-catering at Wild Olive House, perfect for families with children, with its own pool and outdoor living spaces.

Weddings

Weddings have become a speciality at Bartholomeus Klip and the Deckhouse makes a magical setting for drinks, dinner or the ceremony itself – although couples have chosen to marry in all sorts of unusual places around the farm or in the reserve.
