7. A Golden Celebration in the Heart of the Klein Karoo
Real Stories: How Our Members Enjoy Free Stays Around the World
Frieda, a Swop & Stay member, recently celebrated a truly special milestone—her 50th wedding anniversary—in one of her favourite places: Swartberg Country Manor in the breathtaking Klein Karoo.
A truly magical evening under the fig trees
With its majestic mountain views, peaceful surroundings, and the mouthwatering dishes from PATAT kitchen, this countryside gem has long been a favourite Swop & Stay destination for Frieda and her family. So when it came time to mark this unforgettable occasion, the choice was easy.
Joined by their children from George, Frieda and her husband enjoyed an evening filled with warmth, beauty, and heartfelt hospitality. Leoni and the team at Swartberg Country Manor went above and beyond to make the celebration extra special—arranging a private dinner just for the family under the fig trees. Surrounded by love, good food, and the stillness of nature, it became a magical evening they will never forget.
“It was such a special evening,” Frieda says. “Thank you to Leoni, the Swartberg Country Manor, and all the staff for making our anniversary so meaningful. It’s a memory we’ll cherish forever.”
Nestled on the historic “Voorbedacht” farm in the breathtaking Cango Valley, Swartberg Country Manor is a luxury lodge that offers the perfect balance of comfort, charm, and escape. Set at the foot of the world-renowned Swartberg Mountain Pass and just 20 km from the famous Cango Caves, this hidden gem invites guests to unwind in one of 25 comfortable en-suite rooms, each designed with relaxation in mind.
Whether you’re curled up with a book in the cozy main lounge—complete with DStv and a fireplace—or soaking up the sun by the crystal-clear swimming pool, every corner of the manor whispers rest and renewal. Free WiFi keeps you connected, but the real luxury lies in disconnecting and rediscovering your soul amid the panoramic mountain views and tranquil farm surroundings.
From the wide veranda of the original farmhouse to the warm hospitality offered by the team, Swartberg Country Manor is more than just a getaway—it’s an experience of serene beauty and heartfelt connection with nature.
