About this place

Piekenierskloof Mountain Resort is a four-star resort at the top of Piekenierskloof Pass on the N7, about two hours north of Cape Town. Citrusdal and the Olifants River valley lie below, the Cederberg fills the horizon, and the lawns run down to the pool with nothing in the way of the view.

There are 22 hotel rooms and suites, with daily housekeeping, room service, underfloor heating and a patio or balcony over the valley or gardens. The 16 self-catering chalets sleep up to six, and each has a full kitchen, a lounge with a fireplace, a covered braai and a furnished patio.

Kloof Restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner every day, indoors under thatch or out on the deck above the valley, and the bar pours local beers and Cederberg wines. There is an outdoor pool, an indoor pool heated all year, a wellness centre for massages and facials, and a games room with a pool table and table tennis.

Days fill easily, with archery, air golf and mini golf on the lawns, remote control car racing and walking trails that lead straight out into the fynbos. Children have a play area with trampolines and the Dream Xplorers programme. Rooibos and wine tastings, a nine-hole golf course and, from July to October, the wildflowers of the Cape Flower Route are close by.
