Description

Driekwartblou Guesthouse is situated on a working farm with spectacular 180-degree views of the Gariep Dam. Located next to the Oviston Nature Reserve, guests can even spot wildlife from their private patio. The guesthouse is approximately 30 km from the N1 highway, with a 1.8 km dirt road leading from the main gate to the accommodation.

Accommodation is offered in 4 modern en-suite units, each equipped with air-conditioning and DStv. The guesthouse is powered by solar energy, ensuring it is not affected by load shedding.

Meals are available on request and, weather permitting, are served on your private patio. No meals are served on Sundays. Two of the units are fully equipped with self-catering facilities, including braai amenities. Unit 4 provides only basic self-catering facilities, including a fridge, kettle, microwave, and access to crockery and braai facilities.

Free WiFi is available, and there is generally good mobile reception, allowing for mobile data usage.

Guests can start their day by watching the sunrise with a cup of coffee and complimentary homemade rusks.

In summer, guests can cool off in the farm dam, and marked walking trails are available for exploration. Guided hikes can also be arranged. Cyclists are welcome to tackle the routes on their mountain bikes. Due to minimal light pollution in the area, the location is popular for stargazing, and bird enthusiasts can enjoy the wide variety of birds observed on the farm.
