The Far-Side Rest Camp

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!

    We just came home after a night spent there for my partner's birthday.so glad we discovered this hidden gem. if, like us , you prioritize an accomodation in nature, with a great outdoor area with multiple fire pits, great and simple design and an amazing piece of land where dogs can play you will struggle to leave this place at the end of your stay. if you are hoping to find appliances such microwave, air fryer, tv perhaps look somewhere else as it is on the basic side. i want to highlight the commitment they are taking building a skate park and play areas for the local children. i really wish to see more of this business giving back to the amazing community. one note: braaing on the firepit can be challenging so next time i will just load my trusty weber and bring it for a holiday. can't wait to come back and saying longer.

    We loved our experience The Far Side, super relaxing stay, great people and just all round the best nights rest i've had in Barrydale, After traveling around South Africa and experiencing many types of accommodation, this is my best experience of chilled, rustic, and relaxing accommodation in Barrydale Close enough to the nature and all the shops just around the corner.
