History

The Volmoed Trust was established in the early eighties as a place that would minister to people who felt battered by their life's experience. Today it serves the wider community as a facility for conferences and courses while still being accessible to individuals and families who simply need to get away from it all. They have a regular rhythm of prayer with the Brothers of St Benedict’s Priory, and Guests are welcome to join them. They also have a Chaplain who is available for pastoral care.

Food & beverage

Volmoed is a self catering facility, with fully equipped kitchens and braai areas.

The Plaaskombuis is about 1km away and serves freshly made meals as well as frozen meals. There is several wine farms in the area to visit.

Grounds & Gardens

Set in its own little valley of 130 hectares of fynbos, VOLMOED offers a peaceful venue for individuals, family holidays, weddings, conferences and church retreats. VOLMOED offers comfortable accommodation in well-equipped houses accommodating 2 to 12 people each. As the Onrust River makes its way from the heights of Babylon's Toring through De Bos Dam it tumbles down into this little valley with a waterfall and lovely natural rock pool, setting the scene of tranquility and natural beauty that are the hallmarks of this Retreat and Conference Centre.
