The farm lies in the heart of the Cederberg Wilderness Area, which is renowned for its spectacular rock formations, expansive vistas, rock art and fynbos.
Accommodation at Sanddrif consists of self-catering cottages and campsites with electricity points. Long before adventure sports became popular, the Nieuwoudt family started renovating dwellings on the farm to offer hikers and rock climbers basic overnight accommodation during their expeditions in the mountains. Over the years Sanddrif has grown into a well-established and popular holiday destination.
