About 300 years ago, early settlers or trekboere settled down in the area. The deep sandy soil was a challenge for farmers to transport their crop to Velddrif from where it was shipped to Cape Town.
The farmers struggled with their heavy loaded ox wagons through the two-track sandy road until they reached the pans where they unharnessed the oxen and repaired their wagons.
This is where the name originated from.
One With Nature
A 400-hectare beachfront farm (at Wamakersvlei) where you will reconnect with nature, experience peace, mindfulness, and total tranquillity. We offer couples, families, and groups the pleasure of breaking away in off the grid living. You will experience bright starry nights, magnificent sea views, the smell of fynbos and picturesque sunrises and sunsets. Escaping has never been this green before.
Refined by nature
The term refined by nature entails appreciating natures’ healing power to revitalize. Using the moonlight in the evening to relax and the sun power to create hot water. This is going back to the time we didn’t take away from our natural resources but preserved them.
Flowers
The Sandveld forms part of the unique Cape Floral Kingdom, one of the six floral kingdoms in the world.
What makes the Sandveld unique is the fact that huge areas are still unspoiled habitat for plant species, birds, animals, reptiles and insects.
