Welcome to Bulshoekfarm

A getaway of pure relaxation, and a bit of adventure

Bulshoekfarm Accommodation sits on the banks of the beautiful Bulshoek Dam at Clanwilliam. We are 23 km outside of the picturesque town of Clanwilliam, right off the N7, which makes the scenic 223 km drive from Cape Town an easy escape for a weekend or longer.

Found on a working piggery, Bulshoekfarm is a family farm now running into its third generation. We gladly share the beauty of our little piece of paradise with you.

If it is just a weekend break away or a holiday you are looking for, bring your boat, pack your fishing rods and come enjoy everything Bulshoek Dam has to offer.

Come for a ski, a tube ride, even wake boarding is popular here. The dam holds black bass, small and large mouth, and carp, and both can be caught straight from our banks. It is a safe environment for kids and for the whole family.

Where you sleep

Four houses and six camp sites

Every one of them is self catering, every one of them has a braai, and every one of them is a short walk from the water.

Bass boats on Bulshoek Dam

Life on the water

The dam is the reason people keep coming back

Bulshoek Dam has various fish species like black bass and carp. Come for a ski, a tube ride or a wake board, or just sit on the bank and watch the sun go down behind the Cedarberg.

Bass and carp fishing

Black bass, small and large mouth, and carp. Both can be caught straight from the banks at Bulshoekfarm.

Ski, tube and wake board

Bring the boat. A slipway licence is R50 per day once your paperwork is in order.

Kayaks and SUP boards

Pack them in. The water edge sites have braai space, a toilet and poles to moor your boat.

Swim and sunsets

A safe environment for kids and the whole family, and the sunsets over the dam are the reason people come back.

Braai and boma fires

Every unit has a braai. Wood and ice are available on the farm.

Birdlife and quiet

Relax around the campfire and listen to the birds. Cell signal is limited, which is rather the point.

Farm life, honestly

Three things we would rather tell you up front

We would rather you know exactly what you are booking. It saves everybody a disappointment.

01

We cannot guarantee water levels

Bulshoek Dam is a working irrigation dam and the level moves with the season and the rain. We provide the accommodation, the dam does what the dam does.

02

It is a pig farm

You will hear them and you will smell them. That is farm life, and it is also why the pork in your braai pack is as good as it is.

03

No pets, and no jet skis

Not negotiable, on either. Life jackets on the water at all times, and nobody near the piggery or the working areas of the farm.
