Conference Facilities
Boschrand Guest Farm can accommodate conferences of up to 24 people. While a large conference hall creates the ideal setting for creative thought, the huge lapa balances work and play.
There is plenty to do at Boschrand like game viewing, boat cruises on nearby Gariep Dam and anglo Boer War sights. You can also do some hiking and bird viewing. Best of all, we provide fun farm activities for children - feed a hanslam, or watch the cows being milked, etc.
