Enjoy Life You Only Live Once On Earth
Most of our clients visit EL YOLO OnE more than once. Remember, all year long is high season.
El Yolo OnE is in a Malaria free area.
EL YOLO OnE is a privately owned three star guest farm with self catering accommodation, situated on the border of the Western Cape and the Eastern Cape. Here you can relax, experience nature, farm life, 4x4 tracks and much more. The nearest old fashioned town is Klaarstroom and it is very close to Meiringspoort, one of the eight Unesco World Heritage sites in South Africa. The guest farm is also within a few kilometre from the small town of Willowmore and the fascinating Baviaanskloof. Even Prince Albert, De Rust and Oudtshoorn can be visited on day trips from EL YOLO OnE guest farm.
Annual events in the area make the guest farm a popular accommodation option and bookings are essential. Some local events and attractions include the KKNK or Klein Karoo Nasionale Kunstefees in Oudtshoorn (88 km) in April, snow during July and August, the Meiringspoort Marathon during October, and escaping the city life during Decembers and any other time of the year.

| Lærke Nielsen, Denmark | Absolutely fantastic place!!
Of the 10 places we stayed during our vacation in SA, this was definitely the best!! We were a bit skeptic turning on to the gravel road from Klaarstroom, and even more when going through the gate onto the very bumpy road the last 4 km. But when we turned into EL YOLO OnE we were meet with smiles and warmth, and were sure this could only be a good stay. And it was!! The rooms/houses are clean with nice interior - the main house warm, cosy and welcoming - the surroundings beautiful and wonderfully quite. But the best thing about EL YOLO OnE is definitely the host Johan, who we just loved from the first sight! He went out of his way to make our stay perfect and gave us an evening we will never forget! This place is close to paradise on earth!

We recently stayed at EL YOLO OnE in Western Cape near Klaatroom (4 days with my parents in-law and our two children, in August) and had the most fantastic time. This place is out of this world, with amazing views and lovely accomodation. We walked to the waterfall and the caves adorned with bushmen paintings, enjoyed 4x4 drives in hills covered with flowers and aloes, saw some games, many birds, turtles crossing the path and our children fed the animals, including a fourteen weeks sheep! We stayed at the farm house where my in-laws enjoyed the privacy of the annex en-suite bedroom, and we all enjoyed the luxury of the authentic old farm, decorated with perfect taste and ultimate comfort.
