Boschkloof Farm Cottages is a highly recommended property for self catering in Citrusdal for tourists visiting the Cederberg region.
Charming and stylish, the cottages are set on a beautiful mountain farm in the heart of the Sneeuberg Conservancy, directly adjacent to the Cederberg Wilderness Area. The farm Boschkloof is situated less than two hours drive from Cape Town, 7 km. from Citrusdal in the Olifants River Valley.
Come savour the silence in this haven of tranquility and natural beauty. Owners Doempie and Mariet Smit will welcome you with true country hospitality and introduce you to the natural splendour surrounding you, as well as their fascinating farming activities.
Lush citrus orchards tucked in mountain kloofs and rooibos tea lands are some of the activities on view. Explore the Bushmen rock paintings, hike along mountain trails, cool off in the sparkling swimming pool or a refreshing mountain stream, enjoy the prolific bird life ... or simply relax and enjoy the magnificent views!
Choose between our two self catering cottages each sleeping up to 5 guests. The cottages are well equipped for self catering.
The best feature may be the fact that, although very comfortably equipped, there is neither television. Access to free WiFi on the farm house stoep.
Please see the individual unit descriptions with photographs below, to assist you with your choice.
Life is slow and peaceful on Boschkloof... Brace yourselves to spend quality time with family, friends and loved ones.
Laze around the pool at Boschkloof Cottage, read a book on the generous veranda or go for a stroll in the beautiful mountains with Tara and Nougat (the two family dogs) as guides! 4x4 drives, informal outings and farm tours can be arranged on request. Pick fresh oranges off citrus trees in your own private orchard at Oude Boord, sip a glass of wine on a chair in a mountain stream. We offer peace and tranquility.

Boschkloof self-catering cottage is a charming example of Cape Vernacular architecture. Once the first house on the farm, this quaint, historic cottage was renovated with care and sensitivity by the Smit family. Every modern convenience necessary for a comfortable stay was added and yet the thick old walls and poplar beams under wooden ceilings speak of times when life had a much slower pace. Set on the farmyard within sight of the 'new' farmstead, it has beautiful views over orchards and the imposing Cederberg mountain range.; The cottage has two bedrooms, two bathrooms (master bedroom en suite) and sleeps a maximum of five guests. The air-conditioned open-plan living space comprises of the lounge with fireplace and DSTV, a very well equipped kitchen and dining room. The generous front stoep, sparkling blue swimming pool next to the cottage and braai facilities provide the opportunity to enjoy the outdoors. Access to free WiFi on the farm house stoep. Bed linen and towels are provided. All you bring is your food and drink and enough time to enjoy it all.

De Oude Boord self-catering cottage is set in a verdant organic orange orchard next to a mountain stream in a secluded nook of the farm. The charming cottage was purposely built for guests and offers comfort, tranquility and complete privacy. The clever layout makes it ideal for two couples, or a couple and two children, with its two en suite bedrooms flanking the large open plan living space. The main bedroom has a double bed and air-condtioning. The second bedroom has two single beds. The lounge has comfortable seating and a couch facing the fireplace for cosy winter evenings. It borders on the well equipped kitchen and dining area. Outside the generous stoep has beautiful views of the orchard in front of the cottage and the imposing Cederberg mountain range. The stoep with built-in benches and patio furniture, together with braai facilities, make for enjoyable time spent outdoors. The best feature of De Oude Boord may be the fact that, due to its secluded location, there is no television or cell phone reception. You have no choice but to unwind, relax and settle into the heavenly setting of your own private corner of paradise.

What a awesome experience! Food for the soul to be so close to nature. We were 2 retired ladies 85 and 65, we felt so safe amongst the mountains with Sheldon (the dog) always with us. Will visit again
