Situated on top of a small ridge with commanding, wonderful views of the Biedouw River Valley, Figtree Farmhouse offers a truly remote, secluded, off-grid escape at Enjo Nature Farm. This spacious retreat seamlessly blends rustic charm with modern comfort, providing an ideal base for exploring the natural beauty of our farm and the Cederberg beyond. Enjoy complete privacy with exclusive access to a pristine stretch of the Biedouw River.

The farmhouse comfortably sleeps up to 6 guests across two well-appointed bedrooms and day beds in the living area. The master bedroom features a queen-sized bed with quality linens and stunning valley views. The second bedroom has two single beds and can be configured to your needs along with the daybeds in the living area.

At the heart of the farmhouse is a generous open-plan living area that combines kitchen, dining and lounge spaces under high ceilings with exposed wooden beams. Large windows frame the spectacular landscape, allowing natural light to flood the interior throughout the day.

The fully-equipped kitchen includes a gas stove and oven, large refrigerator/freezer, essential cookware and utensils, and a dining area with seating for 6 or more. The comfortable lounge area features plush seating arranged around an indoor fireplace, perfect for cozy evenings after days spent exploring. Step through French doors onto a wide veranda that maximizes the breathtaking views. The outdoor living space includes a covered dining area, firepit under the stars, comfortable seating for sundowners.

As an off-grid property, Figtree Farmhouse operates with minimal environmental impact. The home is powered by a solar system for electricity, features gas heated water, employs eco-friendly waste management, and water is supplied from a solar borehole.

The property and surrounding area are home to a variety of wildlife. You may spot graceful springbok traversing the open areas and shy duiker emerging at dawn and dusk.

Frequently Asked Questions

While a 4x4 or high-clearance vehicle does make it easier, it is possible to drive to Fig Tree House in a normal vehicle although there is one stretch of deep sand where caution is advised. Please contact us to discuss the current road conditions as they can change throughout the year.

Yes, the water comes from a nearby borehole and is drinkable. The water does, however, have a slightly salty taste because of the presence of minerals, and so we also provide you with containers of spring water from our farm.
