Witmos Oxwagon Camp

Witmos Oxwagon Camp, located in Somerset East, Eastern Cape, South Africa, offers a distinctive accommodation experience that seamlessly blends historical charm with modern comfort. The facility features carefully restored historic oxwagons as unique sleeping quarters, each outfitted with plush carpeted floors and versatile twin beds that can be converted into king-size arrangements.

The accommodation maintains modern conveniences while preserving its rustic appeal, with solar-powered lighting illuminating the wagons and pathways, and facilities available for charging mobile devices. Guests share three well-appointed communal bathrooms equipped with gas and wood-burning geysers, showers, basins, and toilets, with an additional guest toilet provided for convenience.

At the heart of the camp lies the main building, housing a communal kitchen and welcoming lounge area complete with a stone fireplace and complimentary Wi-Fi access. The outdoor social fire pit serves as a gathering point where guests can enjoy stargazing and socializing during clear evenings.

The camp welcomes families, making special arrangements for children under 12 to share the oxwagons with their parents, adding mattresses upon request. This unique African outdoor experience combines the nostalgia of historical transportation with contemporary amenities, creating an unforgettable retreat from modern life. The entire camp can be reserved for exclusive use, offering a perfect venue for group gatherings or special occasions.
