AN ESCAPE FROM REALITY
An extraordinary, larger-than-life Karoo homestead set within 3,000-hectares of private Cederberg wilderness
"What began as an ambitious dream — to purchase an untouched stretch of wilderness and create a home within it — now stands as something truly remarkable. Perched dramatically above the Doring River and resting along the cliff’s edge, Doringbos commands breathtaking panoramic views that stretch endlessly across the rugged Cederberg landscape"
Set in the spectacular Cederberg Mountains, just 3.5 hours from Cape Town, Doringbos is an extraordinary Karoo homestead on a private 3,000-hectare farm overlooking the Doring River. Remote, expansive and deeply restorative, it is a place where untamed wilderness, understated luxury and authentic farm living exist in perfect balance.
With 10 rooms, multiple swimming pools, hot tubs, a beautiful riverside setting and abundant wildlife, Doringbos offers an unforgettable escape into nature. Guests can enjoy a range of outdoor activities, including hiking, kayaking, mountain biking and horse riding. Available exclusively for private bookings, the property offers the choice of a self-catering stay or the services of a private chef.
The property comprises the Main House, four charming cottages, Leo’s Lookout, a boma overlooking the pan, the Doringbos Bar and a dedicated games shed. The Main House features three en-suite bedrooms, while the surrounding cottages provide a further seven bedrooms, including five en-suite rooms and two bedrooms that share a bathroom.
