Situated just 10 kilometres outside Montagu in the picturesque Western Cape, Baden Klub is a serene holiday resort offering a peaceful farm-style retreat.
Nestled amidst the breathtaking Karoo landscape, with fresh air and uninterrupted views of the Cogmanskloof Mountains, this family-oriented destination provides an ideal escape from city life. Whether you’re looking for a camping adventure or the comfort of self-catering chalets, Baden Klub promises an unforgettable stay for members and non-members alike.
Camping and Accommodation
Baden Klub features 68 campsites suitable for caravans and tents, along with 23 self-catering chalets. Campsites are shaded, with grass and soil ground cover, and equipped with communal ablution facilities that include wheelchair-friendly options, washing facilities, and porta-potty amenities. Each campsite can accommodate up to six people, offering a relaxing and family-friendly atmosphere.
For those seeking a touch of luxury, the self-catering chalets provide a comfortable base to enjoy the natural beauty of the area. Non-members are welcome to book outside the Easter and December school holidays, which are reserved exclusively for members.
Mineral Pools and Relaxation
Baden Klub’s mineral baths are a standout feature, offering year-round relaxation. The warm pool, naturally heated to a soothing 35°C, is perfect for chilly winter days, while the cold-water pool provides a refreshing oasis during the hot Karoo summers. Both pools are surrounded by grassy areas and shaded trees, creating an idyllic space to unwind and soak in the views of the surrounding mountains.
For a quiet and peaceful experience, the resort enforces strict pool rules. Children under six are not allowed in the warm pool after 10 PM, and the mineral baths are reserved for guests aged 45 and older.
