About Kwetu Guest Farm

Sable, Eland, Kudu, Water Buck, Springbok, Bontebok, Reebok, you can see it all at Kwetu Guest Farm!

Get away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Kwetu Guest Farm is situated on a peaceful farm in Buffeljagsrivier – 11kms outside Swellendam, the third oldest town in South Africa.

We have three comfortable, self-catering, one-bedroom cottages, two of which are alongside a dam. We also have two one-bedroom apartments for rent at the main house, a long room.

We have 87 hectares in which to walk, jog or cycle. Do bring your fishing rod as well! Brand new baby sable born last month at Kwetu!

Safari: We're only a small farm, 87 hectares, we do not allow hunting of any kind , and you will be able to get close with most our animals. We have Sable, Bontebok, Kudu, Water buck, Reebok, Eland, Springbok, and so much more.

Beach: Witsand is just an hour's drive. Turn left as you exit the farm.

Spa: game drives for 120 rand pp picnic baskets at 95 rand pp

Golf: Horse riding can also be arranged for a fee. We have an amazing horse on the farm, Mister Finley, who has an amazing temperament and loves his apples.

Wedding Venues: Chris Elle is just around the corner. They have a great setup for weddings and functions.

Conference Venues: Soon to come, the venue is under development. We expect that part of the farm to be completed end of August. The facilities will include a covered venue, a kitchen, picnic areas, a courtyard, and more.

Family friendly: For fishing, hiking, cycling, swimming, you've come to the right place. Catch and release normally for the fishing, but if you wish to keep a few, let us know. Also, your kids can feed our farm animals with us if they wish to :)

Romantic: You will experience some of the most breath taking sunsets at our many picnic areas on the farm. All the cottages face the mountain and offer a stunning view. For a glass of wine, or holding hands, Kwetu is the place :)

                  Kwetu was a huge surprise - only 2.5 hours from Cape Town with a game farm feel. Easily 4 varieties of buck and wildebeest roaming free , dappled grey ponies and 2 elegant giraffes made this an accessible safe and affordable experience for a young family keen on cycling and exploring for a 2 day quick getaway from the city.Kwetu provided us parents with a sense of security to be able let their 8 and 7 year olds explore the 80 hectares of rugged hills and scrubland surrounding around the perfectly appointed cottages - complete with towels , loo paper , percale linen and super warm and light...

                  My husband and I had a very memorable 2 nights at Kwetu Guest farm. We stayed in the unit for 2 with an upstairs bedroom. The unit was still new, clean, had all one needed, including a huge King size bed and lovely linen.We could sit outdoors under the shaded covered area, even in the heat and relax, braai and watch the game close by. The game drives were great and relaxing under one of the covered picnic areas or watching the stunning sunsets was a favorite. The views of the mountains were also spectacular as one listened to the numerous birds flying by. Many thanks to the owners, Adele and...
