The campsite hosts 150 grassed sites, all with power points and is nestled peacefully under giant trees on the lush river banks with convenient and modern ablution blocks. There are also campsites further up, and not directly on the river. Be sure to specify where you would want to book a campsite. There are 2 ablution blocks, one a family block, and the other for men and women separately. They also have dormitories sleeping 12 people. It is a wonderful family holiday and relaxation spot which can also be booked for weddings and other special occasions. Kam'Bati, a paradise for nature lovers and outdoors enthusiasts is only 200km from Cape Town a 3km drive off the N2. It lies on a spectacular piece of ground where an abundance of aloes grow amongst the fynbos where the fish eagles call and turtle doves quietly awaken you. Canoes can be booked and hired from the office. Swimming in the river is allowed. (19-Sep-11).

Coming from Swellendam on your way to Cape Town, the turnoff is on your right hand side off the N2.

Gravel road all the way from the N2 to the campsite. Fine for Sedan vehicles too.

“Origin of the name Kam'bati - My oupa se bynaam was Bati Badenhorst. Hy het 'n groot liefde vir die plaas gehad, so is oord na hom vernoem. Eintlik Kamp Bati. (From Jaco Badenhorst, the present owner)” - Chris Smit, 2011/12/20

“We camped here March 2011. Was very hot, slightly windy, but settled down and we had lovely evenings. Extremely nice setting, on the river. Many shaded campsites. Ablutions are immaculate, they are constantly cleaned. Wonderful place for kids, swimming and canoeing on the river, kiddies playpark, lots of space to go cycling etc. Fishing here is apparently very good, although this weekend it was very poor, just caught 3 fish, but they were big, which made up for it.” - Janine Reyneke, 2011/03/22
