Accommodation Description
Heiveld Farm Campsite offers a rugged, back-to-basics camping experience in the remote beauty of the Biedouw Valley. Surrounded by fynbos, sandstone cliffs, and rooibos fields, the campsite is ideal for nature lovers who appreciate wide-open spaces, stunning stargazing, and complete digital disconnection. The campsite is simple but comfortable, offering spacious, undemarcated stands on natural terrain. Facilities include eco-friendly ablutions with hot showers, flushing toilets, and a basic communal wash-up area. Campers are encouraged to bring their own water, firewood, and all necessities for a true self-sufficient experience. Whether pitching a tent or parking a small off-road camper, the setting ensures privacy, peace, and immersion in nature.
Setting Description

The surrounding scenery includes endless fynbos plains, dramatic rocky outcrops, and seasonal wildflower displays that transform the landscape into a painter’s palette.
