Bartholomeus Klip
All-inclusive rooms and farmland nature drives
About this stay
Bartholomeus Klip runs on an all-inclusive model rare among Wolseley's stays: meals and nature drives are folded into the rate rather than booked separately, which changes the pace of a visit from self-catering logistics to simply showing up for the next activity. The airy rooms and pool sit outside any malaria zone, on farmland rather than a fenced private reserve, and the nature drives cover the surrounding wetland and grassland habitat on foot or by vehicle rather than a Big Five safari circuit. Free breakfast is included as standard, alongside a restaurant, bar and business centre for longer or work-adjacent stays. At 9.8 from 177 reviews, the rating sits among the highest in the valley.

Our take
Outside any malaria zone and unfenced, Bartholomeus Klip is a farmland nature-drive property rather than a Big Five reserve, and that distinction matters for anyone expecting predator sightings. It suits travellers who want an all-inclusive rate and guided outdoor activity without the logistics of self-catering. Budget travellers or those wanting a plain pool stay without the activity programme should look toward one of Wolseley's simpler farm cottages instead.
- Confirm exactly what the nature drives cover before booking, since this is farmland wildlife, not Big Five safari territory.
- Take advantage of the all-inclusive meals fully, since the rate already covers them regardless of how much you eat.
- Book well ahead for the January to March harvest season, when the 9.8 rating drives demand up fast.

Why guests love itBartholomeus Klip is the upscale choice I would make for families who want an all-inclusive stay with nature drives built in. This four-star venue has airy rooms, a pool, a restaurant and bar, and meals are included, so there is little to organise once you arrive. A business centre helps parents who need to work. It sits about seventy-four minutes by road from Cape Town International, and 177 reviews average 9.8.
