Third stay there. Always great.

Saw 3 sable antelope and had a young Nyala nearby. The meat and biltong from the shop is good.

Comfortable warm farm stay.

We recently over nighted at Kgalagadi Guest Farm on our way to the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park after doing all our shopping in Upington. We were overwhelmed with how clean and neat it was. It's a communal kitchen with two main rooms with en-suite bathrooms leading off to either side so perfect for 2 couples or two families willing to share the space. We were alone and had the whole place to ourselves. The gas heater kept us warm. A selection of delicious rusks, coffee, tea, fresh milk, raisins. It's a real working farm and we had a great night's sleep under a down duvet and comfortable bed. Thank you for making us feel welcome.

Lekker oornag stop, maar sal ook langer kan bly en kamp by die dam.

Die kamp area is mooi en die dam was vol water na al die reën! Kamparea met kombuisgeriewe goed.

Nice overnight stop, but would also be able to stay longer and camp at the dam.

The camp area is beautiful and the pond was full of water after all the rain! Camping area with good kitchen facilities.

Kalahari op sy beste, 5-ster-ablusie en netjiese kampgeriewe.

Alhoewel ons net oorgnag het vanaf Kgalagadi-oorgrenspark, beveel ek hierdie kamp aan vir 'n dag of meer. Rustige plaasatmosfeer waar lekker gestap en voëls vollop is. Sien ons beslis weer.

Kalahari at its best, 5-star ablution and tidy camping facilities.

Although we only stayed overnight from Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, I recommend this camp for a day or more. Peaceful farm atmosphere where nice walks and birds abound. Definitely see us again.

Unieke ervaring!

Die kuier in die Boskamp was 'n unieke en heerlike ervaring! Vir 'n tent-en stokkieshuis was dit merkwaardig skoon en gerieflik! Die kinders het heerlik in die dam geroei en die gasvryheid van Riana en haar span is tipiese Noord-Kaapse hartlikheid.

Unique experience!

Visiting the Boskamp was a unique and delicious experience! For a tent and stick house it was remarkably clean and comfortable! The children had a great time rowing in the pond and the hospitality of Riana and her team is typical Northern Cape cordiality.

Netjies en skoon. Hout en ys beskikbaar en mens kan die Kalahari-natuurskoon geniet.

Ons het in Boskamp2 gebly. Die grasdakhuisie se mure is van doringtakke met 'canvas' aan die binnekant. Al die seile kan oprol. Gevolglik is daar deurentyd 'n heerlike, koel luggie wat die huis afkoel. Hoewel snikheet buite, was die huisie heerlik koel. Die 'kombuis' is 'n buite-kookskerm met 'n 2-plaatgasstoof en 'n wasbak en 'n heerlike vuurput! Die enigste negatiewes omtrent ons verblyf: daar is nie 'n yskas nie, en die dam was kurkdroog.

Neat and clean. Wood and ice available and one can enjoy the Kalahari scenery.

We stayed in Boskamp2. The thatched cottage's walls are made of thorn branches with 'canvas' on the inside. All the sails can be furled. As a result, there is always a lovely, cool breeze that cools the house. Although it was sweltering outside, the house was delightfully cool. The 'kitchen' is an outdoor cooking screen with a 2 plate gas stove and a sink and a lovely fire pit! The only negatives about our stay: there is no fridge, and the pond was completely dry.

Quiet solitude with big sky and an amazing sense of peace.

A lovely stopover on the way to the Kgalagadi. The tented camp has been built with love with personal touches everywhere. Everything is comfortable and safe and we had a lovely braai in our lapa and a comfortable night's rest.

Ongelooflik mooi en rustig by die dam.

Boskampe het alles gereed vir 'n lekker rus. Geen selfoonsein maak dit perfek om bietjie afgesluit te wees.

Incredibly beautiful and peaceful at the dam.

Forest camps have everything ready for a nice rest. No cell phone signal makes it perfect to be a little secluded.

Gasvryheid is tops!

Kalahari Guesthouse and Farmstall is die mees gasvrye plek waar ek nog gebly het! Die gastehuis is perfek geleë langs die hoofpad en mens kan kies tussen gastehuis kamers of 'n boskamp. Albei ewe netjies, skoon en ten volle toegerus! Ek het baie lekker gebly ... en boonop is ek elke dag bederf met plaasvars melk so reg uit hulle eie melkkoei se speen. Ek beveel hulle beslis aan!

Hospitality is top notch!

Kalahari Guesthouse and Farmstall is the most hospitable place I have ever stayed! The guest house is perfectly located next to the main road and one can choose between guest house rooms or a bush camp. Both equally neat, clean and fully equipped! I had a very nice stay... and on top of that I was spoiled every day with farm fresh milk straight from their own dairy cow's udder. I definitely recommend them!

Fantasties.

Absoluut fantasties. Ons het hier oorgeslaap op pad Kgalagadi toe. Sal dit enige tyd aanbeveel. Kon ons karavaan se kragpunt inprop vir die nag en die watertenk volmaak voor ons gery het. Baie dankie!
