Five Shy Meerkat tours
Five Shy Meerkat Tours – Original Tours Since 2004
The most popular of our activities we offer are without a doubt the daily wild habituated meerkat tours. These tours that commence only at sunrise are dependent on fair weather, since these little creatures will not venture outside their burrows on cold and rainy days. (No tours on rainy days & Christmas day).
Meerkats are part of the so-called Shy 5 which also includes the bat-eared fox, the aardvark, porcupine and aardwolf.
The meerkat tours last between 2-3 hours and booking is essential. Upon arrival at the meerkat burrows, guests are treated to a hot cup of coffee, after which they are issued with a lightweight aluminium chair to sit in while observing the meerkats as they come out of the burrow into the sunshine and then go about their daily routine of foraging and frolicking. These habituated wild animals are never fed or handled by humans.
Tours are presented by JD Glinister, and his team. It is a fantastic experience & unique privilege to get this close to these little creatures in the wild.
Tours starts at sun rise.
Meeting point 9km outside Oudtshoorn on the R62 - entrance to the right.
De Windpomp Restaurant
De Zeekoe has all the “ingredients” for a great restaurant: a beautiful setting with great views; skirted by an expanse of lawn and views of the Outeniqua mountains.
At De Zeekoe our food philosophy is using fresh, local ingredients and preparing them simply delicious and deliciously simple. Fresh herbs are picked daily from our garden and used in most of the dishes we serve. We prepare and produce our own olives and honey (when in season).
In the kitchen we prefer homemade products as far as possible. We make our own olive paste, bake bread and prepare our own sauces. The produce we can’t make or grow ourselves, we source locally. Since the area is known for its ostriches, we try and do our best to introduce this very healthy and delicious meat to our guests.
On this menu we strive to provide a balanced variety of meals, taking into account the dietary needs of all our guests. Included are gluten free vegetarian options made with superfood, that can replace any type of meat, even on a meat lovers plate! We continually test new recipes and new ideas to keep our menu fresh.

Our Classic Safari Tents are a favorite among guests seeking an affordable 'glamping' experience in the heart of the African Bushveld.
Tucked into a pocket of spekboom thickets and soft Eastern Cape light, the Safari Tents at Bellevue feel like something time forgot — in the best way. No frills, no fanfare. Just the bush, and you, and whatever the day brings.
The tents are raised just off the forest floor, with wooden decks that catch the morning sun and hold onto it long after the trees have cooled. You wake up slow here. The light filters in early, filtered through canvas and birdsong. It’s warm, it’s quiet. You unzip the flap and step out — maybe with a coffee, maybe just to breathe.
Inside is simple, thoughtful comfort. A proper bed, crisp linen, warm wood underfoot. The kind of shower you won’t forget — half open, part rustic, all refreshing. Everything smells like fresh air and veld. You’ll catch yourself staring out of windows, not for anything in particular ...
Evenings settle in easy. Lanterns flicker. The bush gets louder in that soft, familiar way — insects, owls, a distant something that might be a jackal. No distractions. Just night. Just stillness.
