Venue
Nestled in the countryside and set beneath the beautiful Riviersonderend Mountain Range, Elandskloof Farm is the loving home of Retreat Yourself.
Only 20km outside Greyton, Elandskloof Farm is an hour and a half drive from Cape Town (taking the N2) and has no cell phone reception allowing you to immerse yourself in the presence of nature fully. There are amazing walks you can do all over the property and a large body of water you can swim in too. Some of the water based activities are favourites for the kids.

ANOTHER Retreat Yourself Takeaway is Your gratitude – take stock of how blessed you are
There’s no shortage of things to be grateful for. From the beauty you experience at Elandskloof Farm (the valley is absolutely incredible), the music, the comedy, the community, the sense of connectedness, the eco-attitude and the opportunity to learn and play, to exercise and breathe in wellbeing.
The variety of workshops are perfect for learning something new, experiencing something new or getting a huge dose of movement and community all in one place.
