OUR STORY
Kamerkloof is a soulful place of revitalisation, harmony, and beauty. We are a living farm located in the Baviaanskloof Hartland area that is widely recognised for its extraordinary biodiversity, human history, uniqueness and friendly Klowenaars. In the Eastern Cape, in the most southern region of Africa, the magnificent Baviaanskloof is situated. This narrow valley of about 200 km long, is surrounded by steep rock formations and high mountain plains. The Baviaanskloof is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it has three biodiversity hotspots and seven biomes.
At Kamerkloof our heartfelt hospitality, well-informed hosts, carefully restored historical houses and eco-experiences close to nature make us a premier destination in the Baviaanskloof. Tasteful in every detail and appointed with modern amenities, our rooms and houses are spacious with beautiful scenery that reflects the local sense of style and offers spectacular views of the majestic Baviaanskloof mountains and Studtis farming community. We harvest and produce olive products from a sustainable landscape that allows our consumers to feel meaningfully connected to the Baviaanskloof landscape where our olive trees are grown.
Kamerkloof is a safe haven for all life. While biodiversity conservation is promoted so too are regenerative farming practices. As such, farming and conservation work hand in hand. We are committed to protecting predator species with a special interest in the rare Cape mountain leopard by increasing suitable habitat for leopards in the Baviaanskloof. Kamerkloof is an authentic Baviaanskloof experience where we are creating partnerships to restore an important water catchment area, improving the livelihoods of the Baviaanskloof people and essentially connected to a beautiful landscape as friends of the earth.
