If you dream of a wedding molded around your personality, you will love Cederkloof, set amongst orange orchards and fynbos covered mountains of the Olifants Valley. We have several different outdoor ceremony areas, from a beautiful stretch of lawn beside the swimming pool to a hexagon stone platform in the mountains or a deck over a river under indigenous willows and wild olives. The Opstal venue building is a magnificent indoor-outdoor space for your reception or party. Relaxed, unfussy and all about friends; Cederkloof can host a wedding or gathering from 10 to 120 people with onsite accommodation in cottages or luxury tents for 30-40 guest. The Citrusdal area offers plenty of additional accommodation and lots of activities to keep your guests busy before and after the big event.
