Bartholomeus Klip
Full-board and self-catering farm stays near Cape Town
There is an understated elegance, natural rhythm and abundant vitality in the heart of a historic Cape farm. Experience its unfiltered authenticity and hospitality at one of our three luxurious farm houses, at our gourmet restaurant the Conservatory, and all over our farm and in the private Elandsberg Nature Reserve.

A Culinary Delight
Chef Louise Gillett loves to shake, stir and sear the fresh farm produce she forages and harvests all over Bartholomeus Klip, along with the regional delicacies she finds on her Swartland explorations and the classic cooking techniques she keeps up her sleeve. Her farm-meets-fusion-style cooking is a permanent challenge to excite the palate and senses, and to match a carefully chosen regional wine selection at our Conservatory Restaurant.

The historic farm and private nature reserve provide flexible opportunities and locations for authentic, exclusive and memorable experiences, while our dedicated team guarantees the highest hospitality standards
