Experience the magic of a yurt, a unique weekend escape that has captivated travelers all over the world.

Sip on a glass of local wine as you watch the sun set over the stunning nature conservancy, take a leisurely walk along our Verreaux hiking trail, or indulge in a candle-lit hot tub under a sparkling blanket of stars.

Located on the picturesque Porcupine Hills Guest Farm and the Diepklowe Nature Conservancy, Southern Yurts is nestled in a breathtaking setting that sets the stage for a truly remarkable getaway. With a wide range of activities on the farm and in the local area, there's something for everyone.
