The Retreat with its historically intact, charming architecture is one of the Western Cape's best kept secrets. It lies in the secluded Groenfontein Valley. The 560 Hectare property borders on Cape Nature Conservation land, the Swartberg Nature Reserve, and is traversed by the crystal clear Nel's River, which rises in the Swartberg mountains and feeds the Calitzdorp dam.

We are only four and a half hours from both Cape Town and Port Elizabeth, and one and a half hours from George Airport. We are situated 20kms on a gravel road north east of Calitzdorp and the magical Route 62, and 59km (half gravel) northwest of Oudtshoorn. The Groenfontein road also continues to the famous Cango Caves (48 kms to east), and via the Swartberg Pass to the Karoo Town of Prince Albert through breathtaking scenery.

The winding gravel road, which departs from Calitzdorp past the Calitzdorp dam, also passes through the Kruisrivier valley and the spectacular Red hills (Rooi koppe) before joining the R62, West of Oudtshoorn.
