Hi Creative Travelers, Welcome to the FAR-SIDE rest camp and events venue!
We have a selection lovely quirky accommodation overlooking the farm orchards at the Far-Side.
Choose from one wooden tiny-home style cabin, three funky tiny-home retro caravans, or a Native American style tipi tent. All are self-catering and each can sleep between 2 and 3 people.
We host weekend retreats, ranging from Analog and Digital photography workshops with our photographic studio and darkroom on the property. We also provide healing journeys for those that need to break away from the mad world and find some peace and quiet. We have abundant birdlife and the best views of the stars at night.
The town of Barrydale has so much to offer, and we can arrange walks in the mountain from the property, or day hikes over the mountain to Grootfadersbos. There is a lovely Hotspring 3o km North at Warmwaterberg and the lovely Crystal Pools in the Tradouw Pass 5km away.
We facilitate team-building weekends, adventure trips down the Breede River and hiking and camping in the mountains, however you are welcome to just come stay over and experience the sights of Barrydale that include many labyrinths, art galleries, book shops, antique shops, the Art Hotel, Magpie Collective, Diezel & Creame, Analog Art Gallery our Famous Church and Much more!

2 weeks agoVery friendly welcome. The accommodation was below par. Very dusty and dirty overall. Dilapidated in a lot of areas and needs some tidying. The kitchen equipment was the bare minimum and dirty, no cleaning products. The bathroom is a tiny cubicle containing the toilet and shower outside, also not clean. The plastic covering one of the windows was torn and flapping in the wind. Does not look at all like the photos that are used to advertise. A complete let down.

7 months agoWhat a lovely little wooden cabin. I felt like I was living in a fantasy cabin in the land of the Hobbits. Cosy and warm even in stormy weather outside thanks to a lovely gas heater. Basic but well equipped kitchen. Graham is a lovely host.
