Simonskloof, abandoned for many years, has been restored to regain a unique self-sustaining spirit. Being untouched by ESKOM's power net, it truly reflects simplicity and down-to-earthiness, giving guests a glimpse of "once upon a time...", a real escape from mundane values such as TV-commercials and microwave food. The farm is situated about halfway between Montagu and the N1/R318 turnoff at the western end (the beginning actually...) of the 250km long Langeberg. With a size of 2000ha it's covered by Renosterbos Karoo and Mountain Fynbos, and habitat to a variety of Protea, Buchu and many other medicinal plants.
