Comfortable and very beautiful. My daughter and I had a great time staying in the guesthouse while dad and son stayed in the tents at the Ride the Karoo. The guesthouse is neat, easy to find, and the staff is friendly.

Gerieflik en baie mooi. Ek en my dogtertjie het lekker in die gastehuis gebly terwyl pappa en seuntjie in die tente by die Ride the Karoo gebly het. Die gastehuis is netjies, maklik om te kry, en die personeel is vriendelik.

Eastern Cape hospitality at a green oasis in the arid Karoo. Dwarsvlei guest farm was peaceful and quiet after a long day on the road! It is a green oasis in the arid Karoo and just off the national road (N9)! The rooms are tasteful and take you back in time. Make sure to ask for dinner and breakfast during your stay!

Oos-Kaapse gasvryheid by 'n groen oase in die dorre Karoo. Dwarsvlei-gasteplaas was rustig en stil na 'n lang dag op die pad! Dit is 'n groen oase in die dorre Karoo en net af van die nasionale pad (N9)! Die kamers is smaakvol en 'n mens reis terug in tyd. Maak seker om aandete en ontbyt te vra tydens jou verblyf!

Loved staying in the century-old farmhouse and walking around the beautiful farm. Lovely stay in a beautiful old century house. We enjoyed our walk around the farm and the delicious breakfast. Extremely friendly hosts.

As above. Absolutely wonderful host and wife. It was indescribable. Dwarsvlei is my father's birthplace and to take him at the age of 86 to take him back to the places where he played as a child and sleep in the house where he grew up is just heavenly. Guests can definitely try the Berghut. It is 'back to basics', with shower and flush toilet, 2 bedrooms, kitchen and relaxation area. Small, but the view is absolutely indescribably beautiful. Swarsvlei is definitely recommended.

Soos bo. Absolute wonderlike gasheer en -vrou. Dit was onbeskryflik. Dwarsvlei is my pa se geboorteplaas en om hom in die ouderdom van 86 te neem om weer op die plekke te neem waar hy as kind gespeel het en in die huis te slaap waar hy groot geword het, is net hemels. Gaste kan beslis die Berghut probeer. Dit is 'back to basics', met stort en spoeltoilet, 2 slaapkamers, kombuis en ontspanningsruimte. Klein, maar die uitsig is absoluut onbeskryflik mooi. Swarsvlei word beslis aanbeveel.

Basic affordable Karoo accommodation. Dwarsvlei has a beautiful old farmhouse, but has yet to reach its potential as an overnight accommodation - it was reasonably priced but lacked small details, e.g. guest towel and soap in the bathroom. We took up the offer for dinner, but felt it was not good value for money. Perhaps it is usually better; they were struggling with a power outage which may have affected the meal preparation.

Basiese bekostigbare Karoo verblyf. Dwarsvlei het 'n pragtige ou plaashuis, maar moet nog sy potensiaal bereik wat oornag akkommodasie betref - dit was billik geprys, maar ontbreek aan klein detail, bv. gastehanddoekie en seep in die badkamer. Ons het die aanbod vir aandete aanvaar, maar voel dat dit nie goeie waarde vir geld was nie. Dalk is dit gewoonlik beter; hul het met 'n kragonderbreking gesukkel wat dalk die maaltydvoorbereiding kon beïnvloed het.

Old nice grandma and grandpa farmhouse feeling! Nice walk, nice sitting by the fireplace late at night.

Ou lekker ouma en oupa plaashuis gevoel! Lekker gelaap, lekker by die kaggelvuur gesit laat aand.
