Overview

Swartberg Country Manor is nestled on the farm "Voorbedacht" situated in the Cango Valley at the foot of the world-renowned Swartberg Pass. The picturesque panoramic view of the Swartberg Mountains will bring comfort to anyone that wants to "get away from it all" and simply soak up the peace of its tranquil surroundings.

The lodge is nestled amongst working farms, which offers our guests the unique opportunity to explore and experience the true essence of subsistence farming in the Little Karoo. Among the various agricultural products farmed, we also farm livestock such as, cattle, sheep and ostriches.

Daily walks on the farm allow guests to experience the peace and serenity of this beautiful valley, while for the more "wild at heart", mountain bikes are available to explore the more rugged terrain. Since the farm is situated at the foot of the Swartberg Mountain, it’s a mere 12 km drive to the top of the pass, which offers breathtaking views of the Cango Valley. The descent from here, takes you past the entrance to the renowned Gamkaskloof, also referred to by the locals as "Die Hel" (The Hell), which snakes down until you reach the picturesque Prince Albert. A circular route over the pass through Prince Albert and Meiringspoort is an estimated 3 hours drive and is arguably one of the most scenic routes our beautiful country has to offer.
