Farm 215 Nature Retreat is a highly recommended Gansbaai Bed & Breakfast providing accommodation in 3 guest rooms for tourists visiting the Cape Overberg region.

About Farm 215 Nature Retreat

The reserve of Farm 215 is located mid-way on the tar road from Gansbaai to Baardskeerdersbos, Elim and onwards to Cape Agulhas.

Accommodation

Three modern and private freestanding fynbos-suites, spaced out along a meandering footpath, stand in the middle of pristine nature of the “Cape Floristic Kingdom”. These large suites are open spaced and have a lounge with woodstove, fan, bedroom, bathroom and - over the whole length - a covered deck as well as a sun-deck. State of the art solar heating is the only energy source of these suites.

Large (70m²) freestanding units connected with meandering footpath to the homestead and restaurant (75 m apart). Three spaces (lounge / sleeping / bathing) in open connection (but separated by walls). Woodstove / ceiling-fan / bath and separate shower. Study table / comfortable chairs. Large covered deck. These units are purely electrified by solar power resulting in one minor concession to the level of luxury and comfort (you cannot use a hair dryer). The suite in the middle has a twin bed in a King frame and the other two each have a King-size bed. In all suites a bed can be made up for a child under 12 on the sofa couch on request.

Dining

Meals, made from local ingredients and with an eye to detail, are served in the spacious dining area. Advance dinner reservation for night of arrival is appreciated as is information about dietary requirements. Sweeping views from all rooms and suites in all directions: over the Agulhas Plains towards the coastline, over the lake of Kraaiboschdam and surrounding vineyards and over endless fynbos and rows of Overberg mountains.

Farm 215 Facilities

Communal areas are heated by woodstoves and chilled by thick walls and fans. Extensive library (with a certain bias towards the nature of the Western Cape). Terraces overlooking Kraaiboschdam and surrounding vineyards, ocean beyond the Agulhas Plains, the Overberg-Mountains. Closed courtyard with covered terrace.

25 m lap pool

On a short distance from the house there is a lap pool of 25 m long with a wind-protected deck. The pool (surrounded by a succulent garden) is connected to the buildings with a board-walk.

Attractions & Activities

Farm 215 is clearly off the beaten track in a very natural area and its houses are in an isolated position. Nature rules supreme. Where all attention is given to the comfort and quality of the accommodation and its amenities, Farm 215 is not a resort, but a place where people can retire in rural and natural surroundings. We claim to cater for a niche: people that want to enjoy space, undisturbed views, tranquillity and the special nature of the “Cape Floral Kingdom”.

The Reserve

The reserve is covered with unspoilt natural vegetation of the Cape Floristic Region. The 800 hectares of the fynbos-reserve roll up to the highest mountain-peak in the area and down into deep and steep gorges. Several different vegetation types (fynbos, mountain swamps, lowland-wetlands, riverine scrub, scree-covered slopes, ancient indigenous forest-remnants) attract all kinds of living creatures and a multitude of bird-species.

Enjoy splendid isolation, an overpowering sense of space and the special nature of the Cape Floral Kingdom.

One of the most magical places on earth. The owner Maarten is an incredible host and together with his team, made our weekend a memorable and exceptional experience. The fynbos suites are maginificent and the horseride through the fynbos reserves should not be missed.
