So beautiful! Gorgeous setting - loved our overnight stay! What a fantastic home away from home. Beautiful cottage; wonderfully decorated. Attention to detail! Unfortunately, only stayed one night - absolutely loved the tranquility of a farm stay!

Overnight for a tired body. We had a wonderful stay. The hospitality, friendliness and nothing is out of their reach. Nina is there to make your stay as pleasant as possible. The silence with the bleating of sheep in the distance brings so much peace to one's soul. I will stay there again if our travels pass there. Thank you very much, Nina, for the sweets, you are truly an excellent hostess.

Oornag vir 'n moeg lyf. Ons het heerlik gebly. Die gasvryheid, vriendelikheid en niks wat verkeerd staan vir hul hande nie. Nina is daar om jou verblyf so aangenaam as moontlik te maak. Die stilte met gebler van skape in die verte, bring soveel rustigheid in 'n mens se siel. Ek sal weer daar oorbly as ons reise daar verbygaan. Baie dankie, Nina, vir die soetgoed, jy is voorwaar 'n voortreflike gasvrou.

Stay was too short. We stayed two nights on our way to the Cape. We could have stayed much longer. The unspoilt nature, tranquility, quality of the equipment and accommodation, but especially the hospitality, make us definitely come back.

Verblyf was te kort. Ons het twee aande oorgeslaap onderweg op ons reis Kaap toe. Ons kon baie langer bly. Die opgeruimde natuur, rustigheid, kwaliteit van die toerusting en woonplek, maar veral die gasvryheid, maak dat ons beslis sal terugkom.

Treat yourself! Merino Cottage is gorgeous! Beautifully sized bedrooms with big beds and lovely bedding. A fully equipped kitchen, fabulous outside sitting and braai area with views of the incredible landscape and Springbok. Every little aspect has been thought of right down to homemade rusks, beautifully smelling freshly cut roses in every room, fresh milk in the fridge and a special cupboard in the kitchen by the sink to place your dirty dishes in because "nobody should wash dishes on holiday" according to Nina, our welcoming host.

The kind of place that is difficult to leave. Highly recommended. Exceptional. A beautiful, well-appointed cottage in a peaceful setting. Ideal place to stop and recharge when travelling long distances. Nina's biscuits and rusks are delectable and in generous supply. Friendly owners welcome you on arrival.

Merino Cottage is a gem. It is a destination, not just an overnight stop. We had a wonderful stay.

Merino Cottage is 'n juweel. Dit is 'n bestemming, nie net 'n oornagstop nie. Ons het heerlik gebly.

A peaceful stay on a Southern Free State Karoo farm. What a nice, peaceful stay it was. The place is very beautiful, clean and tidy. Everything you could want for a peaceful getaway. The cottage is fully equipped for everything you might need. The people are friendly and very welcoming. I will definitely visit there again.

Rustige kuier op 'n Suid-Vrystaatse Karoo plaas. Wat 'n lekker rustige kuier was dit nie. Die plek is baie mooi, skoon en netjies. Alles wat 'n mens wil hê vir 'n rustige wegbreek. Die cottage is ten volle toegerus vir alles wat jy mag nodig kry. Die mense is vriendelik en baie verwelkomend. Ek gaan beslis weer daar kuier.

What an incredible little piece of heaven in the Karoo! Beautiful home with everything we needed and more! Already looking forward to our next excuse to stay at Merino Cottage.

Wat 'n ongelooflike klein bietjie hemel in die Karoo! Pragtige woning met alles wat ons nodig gehad het en nog meer! Sien reeds uit na volgende verskoning om by Merino Cottage te bly.
