Hidden gem. This was a lovely place to stay. Away from the noise. Friendly service.

Hierdie was 'n heerlike plek om by te oornag. Ver van die geraas. Vriendelike diens.

Short and powerful. Nice and neat accommodation. Roof is incredibly noisy when the wind blows and the geyser does not heat up consistently.

Kort en kragtig. Verblyf lekker en netjies. Dak raas ongelooflik as die wind waai en die geiser maak nie konstant warm nie.

Have a nice stay at Lekkerkry. The directions to Lekkerkry are pretty clear and I don't think the road is as bad as some people make it out to be. If you're looking for an N1 access road, stay along the N1, but if you're looking for farm accommodation, expect a farm road. We were pleasantly welcomed and nicely explained how, what and where to enjoy. Plus points for the good bedding and towels, although I would deduct a point or two for the finish of the unit - door frame was broken, front door slightly ajar, towel rail loose and the hot water works better in warm weather than in the morning cold due to the length of pipe between gas geyser and outlet. The central living area/kitchen is extremely conveniently equipped and due to the power system and theme of the accommodation I can understand why this is so. I don't believe it will be to everyone's taste, but the gathering around one table, making new friends and the atmosphere it creates will create memories that will be appreciated by those who value it highly. The farm itself offers a nice insight into the Karoo lifestyle with game species such as Kudu, Springbok, Ribbok and Warthog which can be seen with relatively little effort during a walk or short drive on the gravel roads. Along with that I believe the tented houses give a real camp/outdoor feel which contributes to enjoying the scenery. In summary we will definitely return again. The lack of rules and guidelines is a welcome simplicity and you leave Lekkerkry as if you were leaving a friend rather than just a booking number. I am glad there are still places to stay that are open-minded, rather than just public.

Lekker bly by Lekkerkry. Die aanwysings na Lekkerkry is mooi duidelik en ek reken nie die pad is so sleg soos ander dit uitmaak nie. As jy 'n N1 ingangspad soek, bly langs die N1, maar as jy plaasverblyf soek, verwag 'n plaaspad. Ons was aangenaam verwelkom en mooi verduidelik hoe, wat en waar is om te geniet. Pluspunt vir die goeie beddegoed en handdoeke, hoewel ek 'n punt of twee sou aftrek vir die eenheid se afwerking - deurraam was stukkend, voordeur effens haks, handdoekreeling los en die warm water werk beter in warm weer as oggendkoue weens die pyplengte tussen gas geyser en uitlaatpunt. Die sentrale leefarea/kombuis is uiters gerieflik toegerus en weens die kragstelsel en tema van die blyplek kan ek verstaan waarom dit so is. Ek glo nie dit sal almal se smaak wees nie, maar die samekoms om een tafel, maak van nuwe vriende en die atmosfeer wat dit skep, sal herinneringe kweek wat waardeer sal word deur diegene wat dit hoog op prys stel. Die plaas self bied 'n oulike insig tot die Karoo leefstyl met wildtipes soos Koedoe, Springhaas, Ribbok en Vlakvark wat met redelike min moeite gesien kan word tydens 'n stappie of kort rit op die grondpaaie. Daarmee saam glo ek die tenthuise gee 'n egte kamp/buitelug gevoel wat daarby bydra om die natuurskoon te geniet. Ter opsomming sal ons beslis weer terugkeer. Die tekort aan reels en riglyne is 'n welkome eenvoud en jy verlaat Lekkerkry asof jy 'n vriend verlaat eerder as wat jy net 'n besprekingsnommer was. Ek is bly daar is nog blyplekke wat openhartig, eerder as net openbaar is.

Nice to have a nice lodge. Very nice stay, everything you need is there, friendly welcome from Len and Chrissie. The gravel road there is beautiful and easy to drive. Incredibly beautiful view, picture perfect with all the stars in the evening.

Lekker by Lekker kry lodge. Baie lekker gebly, alles is daar wat jy nodig het, vriendelike ontvangs van Len en Chrissie. Die grondpad soontoe is mooi en ry maklik. Ongelooflike mooi uitsig, prentjie mooi met al die sterre in die aand.

Clean, well equipped, overnight stay. Lekkerkry Lodge is an unexpected gem tucked away near Middelburg. It is very clean and the communal kitchen and dining areas are very well equipped.

Peaceful and lovely silence. Farm stay with a lovely view. Most beautiful sunrise. We had a great stay.

Rustig en heerlike stilte. Plaasverblyf met 'n lieflike uitsig. Mooiste sonsopkoms. Ons het lekker gebly.

Nice and quiet. Our stay was nice and the location was beautiful. The rooms are spacious and clean with a nice view. There is only a communal kitchen and only a camp freezer which was already full when we arrived. A fridge in the room would have been very welcome.

Lekker en stil. Ons verblyf was lekker en die ligging was beeldskoon. Die kamers is ruim en skoon met 'n mooi uitsig. Daar is wel net 'n gemeenskaplike kombuis en net 'n kampvrieskas wat reeds vol was toe ons daar aankom. 'n Yskas in die kamer sou baie welkom gewees het.

Hello Wian, so sorry you struggled with fridge space. We have an extra fridge in our battery room! But of course the information was not passed on to you. We will definitely work on providing fridges for each tent, as well as separate braai facilities. Regards, Dorette

Hallo Wian, so jammer dat jy gesukkel het met yskas spasie. Ons het 'n ekstra yskas in ons battery kamer! Maar die inligting was natuurlik nie aan jou deurgegee nie. Ons gaan definitief werk daaraan om yskaste vir elke tent te voorsien, asook apart braai geriewe. Groete, Dorette

Karoo hidden gem. Frieda and Len were amazing hosts, everything was neat and clean. The kudu pie was amazing and Krissie's roosterkoek with homemade jam and cheese was delicious. Beautiful setting with amazing stars. The Christmas gift to the kids was so special.
