If you’re looking to escape the hustle and bustle for a few days and just enjoy the quiet, this gorgeous getaway is perfect for you.
Tucked away in the Karoo, under two-hours drive from Cape Town, lies Kamagu Homestead: A 4 000-hectare self-catering farm stay where you’ll have exclusive use of the property, making it an ideal destination for group bookings.
With six ensuite bedrooms accommodating up to 17 guests (nine adults and eight kids), there’s plenty of space for everyone.
Inside, the homestead offers a peaceful home away from home feel with open-plan living spaces, a library, a colonial lounge, an entertainment area with a nine-foot billiard table as well as a bar and television for big sporting events.
Guests are encouraged to live from the homestead. Pick seasonal produce from the vegetable gardens and fruit orchard to prepare a delicious feast – Farm-to-table in seconds, what could be better than that?
Kamagu Homestead boasts endless opportunities to connect with loved ones over a home-cooked meal or poolside braai at the outdoor entertainment area. The fully equipped kitchen is a wannabe homesteader’s dream. It has everything you need to cook up a feast, with all the comforts of home and a large dining table.
Kids are welcome, with plenty of open space for them to play and lots of nature to discover. They can burn off energy at the jungle gym and bike pump track (for use with your own quad bikes and motorbikes).
In the morning and early evening, you might even see the resident ostriches, zebras and springboks grazing in the fields on the edge of the homestead, which will keep the kids talking long after you return home. They can pick freshly laid eggs for your breakfast from resident hens and become acquainted with friendly farm friends like goats, rabbits and ducks.
Around the corner from Kamagu Homestead is the renowned Aquila Private Game Reserve, where day visitors can enjoy a guided afternoon or sunset Big Five safari. You’re invited to explore other experiences too, such as luxury spa treatments, quad or horseback safaris and signing your kids up for the Junior Ranger Programme.
Kamagu Homestead is the perfect spot to bring your whole tribe to unwind and play. Now, fire up the group chat, break out the diary and start planning a date!
