Come and visit Whipstock Guest Farm and turn back time to a more relaxed pace of life away from the hustle and bustle. Located in the rain shadow of the Sonderend Mountains, on the banks of the Koningsriver, we have kept a small part of rural South Africa remarkably untouched by progress.

We offer two self-catering and three bed and breakfast cottages, each with an atmosphere and charm of its own. The cottages are equipped with fridges, coffee and tea-making facilities and fireplaces. The accommodation reflects its natural surroundings of beautiful countryside living. The commons room offers a small bar area; we are not licensed so bring your own, with large fireplace, dining room and a television with full DSTV. A variety of board games are also available and a library is available for readers to browse.

Whipstock Guest Farm is a prefect getaway for adults with children, as the farm offers a myriad of activities to keep everyone busy. There is a wonderful farm dam with clean mountain water for swimming and canoeing - perfect for those hotter summer days.

The surrounding areas are underdeveloped, lending a rustic charm to the scenery for great walks or mountain bike rides. Short and longer trails have been laid out on the farm such as the Over the Hills walk and the Valley Walk. With Whipstock Farm far from any development, the night sky is clear and the stars are unbelievably visible. At night, stargazing is a journey into another world. The surrounding wine estates offer stylish wine-tasting outings, and the fascinating, historic and artist town of McGregor is only 7 km away, providing a small store for basics, numerous shops, and restaurants.

Thank you so much Denis and Gail for the hospitality you have showed us. We enjoyed the stay and scenery so much. Thank you for making this a home away from home. You went over and beyond to make us welcome. I would def. recommend Whipstock Guest Farm to all that wants that farm and home away from home feeling.... Would def. be back.

I really had a good stay at the farm. The owner were very accommodating, and the premises were well maintained.

My wife and I really enjoyed the couple of days we spent at Whipstock. We came away completely recharged and refreshed. Thanks Dennis and Gail for a lovely weekend. We'll be back!

We very much enjoyed our stay here. The cottage was tastefully decorated, cozy and had all the basics. Lovely setting and extras like lounge with music, billiards, games etc. Very nice, thank you. We will no doubt go again and maybe take some family and children with us.

Your website carries the title "Self catering". That's what we wanted last weekend. We were considerably inconvenienced when we realised that the unit we had asked for was not a self-catering unit. On speaking to the person on duty during our stay, she rightly told me that we had asked for the unit in whch we were accommodated. Your website is not clear on which units are B&B or self-catering. (It's not a train smash - except that we found not one single restaurant open or available to us in McGregor and had to travel to Robertson for a meal.) Suggestion: Let your website be more clear on exactly which units are which. However, it's a pleasant venue (no great shakes though) in a beautiful setting.
