Nestled on Piket-Bo-Berg, Retreat Guest Farm is surrounded by abundant fruit and almond orchards, dams, beautiful rock formations, and a magnificent array of fynbos. The Paterson family have been fruit farmers in the region since 1989 and have created a beautiful space for people to get away from city life, unwind and relax. Guests are able to enjoy a plethora of hiking, running, and mountain biking trails.

We have three private self-catering cottages on the farm, all fully equipped with everything you’ll need for the perfect weekend away. Our cottages are made for families or groups of friends and are also pet-friendly.

The Piket-Bo-Berg Farmers’ Market has been running for over thirteen years on our neighbour’s farm, Kruistementvlei Guest Farm. The market is on the last Saturday of every month from 9 am – 12 pm.

You can expect a variety of delicious food, drinks and fresh produce available throughout the morning for brekkie, snacks & lunch! Please remember to bring cash.

We highly recommend booking a stay during one of the market weekends. It’s a wonderful opportunity to experience the Piket-Bo-Berg community & amazing fresh produce and talent (we have a local band!) our mountain has to offer. The market is a short walk from the Main House or a quick cycle from Somerlus or Langberg.

Our MTB and trail running trails are open to all market visitors on market days. The trails start on Langberg Farm about 1km from Kruistementvlei, where the market is held.
