Enjo Nature Farm

On Enjo Nature Farm you will find relaxing accommodation next to the river and enjoy complete privacy and great views of the Paardeberg mountains. The farm offers different accommodation options, from self-catering chalets to camping. Each self-catering chalet boasts great views, an indoor fireplace, a barbecue area and some have their very own jacuzzi. Our Lonely Planet Cottage is a special one as its positioned very remote and runs with Solar and Gas instead of Eskom. Due to its remoteness we do not clean it in between every booking and expect you to leave it as you find it. On arrival you are given a basket with bedding and all you need which you return with your check out.

We have three nice campsites with braai facilities, water and electricity points. There is a nice hot water ablution block and dish washing facility.

Enjo Nature Farm is situated far from the main tourist tracks, within the unspoilt Biedouw Valley of the Cederberg mountains. The valley is known for its magnificent spring flowers from July till September and incredibly beautiful landscape. Enjoy the quiet beauty and millions of stars at night. There are also wonderful hiking trails on the farm to the Enjo Amphitheatre and to the spring which feeds our drinking water. Choose between exploring the area on your mountain bike or motorbike. A natural dam is also on our farm with paddle skis and a canoe.

Close by you will find the Wupperthal Missionary Village with its hand-made shoe factory and rooibos tea shop, while a visit to the Sevilla rock art trail with its rock paintings and caves is a must.

  • "Enjo Farm"

    03 September 2018

    "We had an enjoyable 2 night stay at Enjo in their Annex unit. It is off the beaten track, but our Datsun Go had no problem on the roads. It was lovely to pass through the different farms to see the wild flowers.The cottage was more than suitable, very warm and comfortable with everything that we needed."

  • "The highlight of our trip"

    03 September 2018

    "Enjo Farm is beautiful isolated farm in the heart of Biedouw Valley. We stayed in the annex room, which was connected to the main house. It was large and comfortable and had all necessities for self catering. The surrounding area is pristine, and at this time of year it is full of flowers. We truly enjoyed our stay and will definitely becoming back again !"

  • "Relaxing, peaceful camping off the beaten track."

    20 August 2018

  • "Beautiful setting and swimming place"

    11 March 2018

    "We were three adults who stayed in Oak Chalet for 4 nights. The location is lovely and peaceful although it is far if your aim is to hike in the Cedarberg. Algeria campsite is about 2 hours drive away. The dam is great for swimming and all the pets are very friendly. The chalet is simple but sufficient. The little shop stocks wood at a good price as well as ice and some other goodies. The owners also kindly let us put our meat in the large freezer in side which was great. The upstairs loft is a bit warm, so would not advise staying here in summer if the second sleeping are is needed. The ladder to the loft is a bit fragile if you older or heavier. We will definitely be back although we would only book this spot for 2 people."

  • "Gorgeous"

    20 October 2014

    "Our stay at Enjo Nature Farm was fabulous, peaceful and tranquil. Surrounded by nothing but Mother Nature herself, you find yourself immersed in the pure beauty of the surroundings. Lazy Leopard Cottage is delightful, within in meters of the river, its ideal for a family. The natural dam to which you can walk offers awesome swimming and picnic spots. From your cottage you can do short walks or longer hikes, you can take a drive to Wupperthal along a 17km dirt road or relax at the river. The establishment also has a small shop and a man made dam with decks for picnics or just pure relaxation. I would highly recommend."
