About Sedgefield

Self-catering in Sedgefield, Western Cape

Self-catering accommodation in Sedgefield is split between Myoli Beach (sea-front holiday houses and apartments) and the lakes system (chalets and cottages around Swartvlei and Groenvlei). No hotels, very few guesthouses — this is a self-catering town by default.

The Wild Oats Community Farmers' Market runs every Saturday morning from 7:30 to 11:30. Most visitors build a weekend around it. Local produce, line-caught fish, and a coffee queue that runs halfway across the parking lot by 9am.

Sedgefield is officially a Cittaslow town (the only one in Africa) — a movement that favours small producers and deliberately slower pace. The self-catering stock reflects that: quiet, unshowy, family-oriented.

Common questions

Sedgefield self-catering FAQs

Is Sedgefield family-friendly?
Very. The lakes are safe and shallow for kids, Myoli Beach is gentle most days, and the town is small enough for teenagers to wander without constant supervision. Most self-catering stock here is built for families.
What's the Wild Oats market?
Saturday 7:30am–11:30am. Local produce, artisan bread, biltong, pastries, coffee, craft beer by 10am. It's the closest Sedgefield has to a weekly ritual — most visitors plan a morning around it.
