In days gone by, one of the main routes from Cape Town
to Swellendam crossed the Zonderendriver on the farm
Vaandrighsdrift near Bonnievale. Here wagons had to
camp for days waiting for the river to run down only
to be confronted by a full Breede River 8km further
on. This area was at that time inhabited by the San
tribe the Hessequas of which very little is known.
Situated in a clearing within a riverside woodland is
a bush camp comprising of nine "Hartebees Huisie
huts" sleeping 30 and a fully equipped bush-kitchen
lapa. We also have a well shaded camping site.
The "Hartebees Huisie" camp is ideal for all
kinds of groups : teambuilding, bachelor parties, "bosberaad"
school groups or groups of 4x4s.
On-farm activities include a comprehensive 4x4 route,
fishing, canoeing, hiking, cycling and bird watching.
Whatever your needs, be sure Hessequas and it's people
will spoil you.
