ATKV Hartenbos Holiday Resort

ATKV Hartenbos is situated along the world-famous Garden Route between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth, some 8 km from Mossel Bay and 40 km from George airport.
With various accommodation options, which allow you to pay per unit and not per person, budget family holidays by the sea are no longer just a dream, but a reality.
Add to that loads of activities and recreational facilities, a restaurant, fast-food section and convenience store, and you’ll want for nothing.
ATKV Hartenbos also serves as the ideal base from where you could add further flavour to your holiday with visits to numerous tourist attractions in the area.
CARAVAN & CAMPING SITE
ATKV Hartenbos is the ideal spot for an enjoyable caravan vacation. Each of the more than 540 stands are equipped with a power point, with a choice of sea view and non-sea view, Hartenbos is the ideal location for a breakaway. Two of our camps have paraplegic bathrooms.
Our recent trip to ATKV Hartenbos found us at a campsite bursting at the tent seams with every type of caravan, motorhome, trailer and tent. There were literally no stands available, which is indicative of the way this resort is run and its wonderful seafront position.
The resort started way back in 1936 as a part of the South African railways, and soon Hartenbos became one of the most popular venues on the Cape East Coast. With the influx of yearly holidaymakers, ground around the resort was sold off and over time, the town of Hartenbos developed.
There are many trees offering the campers shade and the ablutions, particularly at peak times such as when I was there, are cleaned with regularity. The morning is filled with the chirps of resident bird life and the sounds of children riding their bicycles and enjoying the outdoors. Security is present and visible, making your stay that much safer.
