Winter months(May-Aug) is ideal for a visit to the beautiful Klein Karoo area of South Africa

May 30, 2024

We have a new partner in this area called De Zeekoe Guest Farm.

The name De Zeekoe, is derived for the Dutch name for the farm, Zeekoegat, which literally means “hippo waterhole” over a century ago, these odd-looking, water-loving creatures used to frequent the riverbed that still runs through the farm to this very day.

Situated only 7km outside Oudtshoorn, in the Garden Route’s Klein Karoo, surrounded by the famous Swartberg and Outeniqua mountains, is one of the world’s 17 “hot spots” with 3 overlapping flower zones.

De Zeekoe’s unique charm & extraordinary activities attracts guests of a different kind. People from all walks of life visit this stylish lucerne farm in search of a unique experience. Guests can choose between various accommodation types, ranging from stylish rooms at the main house to luxurious cottages with own private pool.

The idyllic setting indeed has something to offer for everyone – from the daring adventure-seekers to those who just yearn for a quiet getaway. This hidden gem has spectacular views with 168 bird species (download bird list) and not the “big 5” but the “shy 5”.
De Zeekoe offers a unique in the world opportunity to walk with Wild Meerkats (Five Shy meerkats) and to be part of the shy 5 experience!

Our experienced team, dedicated to satisfy your needs, will ensure a pleasant stay at De Zeekoe. All our facilities and activities will be handled professionally from start to finish. We look forward to welcoming you to our guest farm.
