From chasing scents through the vineyards to splashing in mountain-fed streams, dogs thrive here. Our network of scenic farm trails and mountain hikes offers plenty of space for pups and their humans to explore, stretch their legs, and soak in the fresh air.

FRIENDS OF THE FARM GALLERY Our Horse Rescues Langdam has accidentally become a retirement village for our 3 Horses, Moons, Lady and Angel.

This collection of domestic fowl are often joined by their wild cousins, guinea fowl, franklin, weavers, hoepoe and hundreds of others. Turkeys They won't win the competition for the most beautiful animals on the farm, but they will provide you with some comic relief. Geese We have a gaggle of geese that are wonderful to watch as they drift majestically in the Langdam dam. They are feisty but friendly, provided they aren't sitting on a clutch of eggs! Chickens Langdam is home to a large flock of chickens, providing us with farm fresh eggs when they are feeling cooperative. The roosters will most likely be the reason you wake up at crack of dawn, welcome to farm life! Where the wild things are This page would not be complete without a mention of the wild animals we share this valley with. We are lucky enough to have 16000 hectares of wilderness on our boundary filled with the animals which belong here more than we ever will. The mountain sustains a nomadic troop of baboon, a healthy population of Rhebok, some very shy Cape leopard, porcupine, aardvark, duiker, Steenbok, Jackal, hare, dassies and an incredible variety of bird life. Our organic farming practices have helped to draw them onto Langdam itself, an honour we are proud to share with our guests. We hope you have the pleasure of seeing some of these elusive creatures ad ask that all our guests treat any animals on this farm with the kindness and respect they all deserve. Giving a little bit back Langdam is proudly affiliated with Howlelujah, a non-profit doing vital rescue work in Cape Town. Many farming communities face challenges in caring for their animals, leading to overpopulation, neglect, and unwanted litters. Howlelujah tackles this through education, as well as vaccination and sterilisation drives held twice a year at Langdam Farm in the Koo Valley.
