Located beside the glorious Rondevlei lake and with a view of the magnificent Outeniqua mountains, Equleni Farm is a scenic haven true to its name “peace by the water”. The 21-hectare property showcases the unique natural beauty of the Garden Route with uninterrupted views painted by the fynbos, lake, mountains and sky.
Equleni Farm is entirely off the grid and powered by solar. Our self-catering cottages are equipped with all the comforts of home, allowing you the privacy and space to relax in nature and enjoy time with loved ones. Each unit has air conditioning, free WiFi and all the essentials for a comfortable stay. Three of our cottages have their own private hot tubs and stunning lake and mountain views, while our budget unit overlooks a small orchard garden. The farm is pet-friendly so bring your furry friends along!
Equleni borders the Wilderness National Park, offering guests the magical experience of a remote getaway while still being connected to everything the Garden Route has to offer. The farm is a natural sanctuary of abundant indigenous flora and incredible birdlife. Guests can enjoy quiet walks on our farm trails and direct access to the neighbouring nature reserve and bird hide. Our shared pool area is perfect for lazing in the sunshine, taking a refreshing dip or enjoying Sundowners while watching the sunset.
Situated between George and Knysna near the slow town of Sedgefield, the farm is close to stunning beaches, forests, local markets, hikes, restaurants and outdoor activities. The Wild Oats Farmers Market, Swartvlei Beach and other local attractions are just a short drive away.
The Equleni Team (including the farm dogs, cats and chickens) live on site and are always happy to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The owners, Diane and Ant, share their time between the farm and their international adventures. They are so happy to share their piece of paradise with so many local and international guests!
Spend quality time with loved ones and reconnect with yourself. Marvel at picturesque African sunsets and gaze up at the Milky Way on a clear night. Listen to the birds and slow down to nature’s peaceful pace. Explore the fynbos trails of the neighbouring Cape Dune Molerat Trail and pause in the stillness of the nearby bird hide.
