About Tortoise Terrace
If you are looking for a quiet bush break without the hassle of having to lug your camping gear with you, then The Storytellers glamping experience is for you. Tortoise Terrace is located at The Storytellers organic farm with fynbos apothecary, nestled right alongside the wilderness area on Vleiplaas Farm, in the heart of the northern Cederberg, an area world-famous for its bouldering and rocky beauty.
The Storytellers has a true, close-to-nature experience with spectacular mountain views and walking trails, set in fynbos with wildlife all around you. Guests have various swimming options, including a gorgeous dam, a waterfall with spectacular views and clean, shallow rock pools for the kids. At The Storytellers, we believe in keeping it as simple as possible!

Activities and Attractions
The Agter-Pakhuis Valley, which marks the northern reach of the Cederberg Mountains as they fade out into the rolling hills of the Karoo, is just more than 20km east of Clanwilliam, towards the historic Moravian village of Wupperthal or heading out to Calvinia.
This prehistoric area is home to several unique plant and wildflower species, as well as leopard, rooikat, baboon, mountain hare, porcupine and a plethora of other wild creatures. The valley hosts an incredibly dense gallery of !Xam and Khoi rock paintings and sites of archaeological interest. Other attractions include hiking trails, Storytellers Fynbos Apothecary natural products workshop, Sevilla Rock Art Trail, wine tasting, viewing the wildflowers in Spring, visiting the Calvinia Museum and rock climbing.

What is loadshedding? It refers to the temporary suspension of electricity provided by Eskom, South Africa's electricity provider, to reduce consumption and thereby the load on the national grid. To compensate, South African property owners are turning to solar power, inverters with backup batteries or in some cases generators to keep the power on, wherever feasible.
