Karoo farm, fresh air, quiet peace, quiet, pure farm. We really enjoyed staying at the accommodation. It is only about half way to Kgalagadi from Cape Town. There is no 220V (that we knew of) but there are lights and a fantastic ice/freezer which apparently runs on wind/solar/battery power. We grilled delicious lamb chops and ribs (just bought a whole lamb from De Kraal Slaghuis in Brandvlei) in the fresh Karoo air. We would love to stay at the Karooplaas again.

Karooplaas, vars lug, stille vrede, rustig, pure plaas. Ons het dit baie geniet om by die akkommodasie oor te bly. Dit is net mooi halfpad Kgalagadi toe vanuit Kaapstad. Daar is nie 220V nie (wat ons geweet het), maar daar is ligte en 'n fantastiese ys/vrieskas wat klaarblyklik met wind/son/batterykrag werk. Ons het heerlike lamtjops en ribbetjies (het sommer 'n hele lam van De Kraal Slaghuis in Brandvlei gekoop) gebraai in die vars Karoolug. Ons sal graag weer die Karooplaas oorbly geniet.

Wonderful farm destination. The cool pond on a warm spring day was a wonderful treat. The house is wonderfully spacious.

Wonderlike plaasbestemming. Die koel dam op 'n warm lentedag was 'n wonderlike bederf. Die huis is heerlik ruim.

Very nice pit stop. Had a wonderful stay. There is no cell phone reception or power plugs. However, there is a car charger where a mobile phone can be charged. The house has lights and equipped gas geysers, stove etc. Is located at R27 which gives a feeling of insecurity, although it was safe.

Baie lekker pitstop. Heerlik gebly. Daar is geen selfoon ontvangs of kragproppe. Daar is egter 'n motorlaaier waarby 'n selfoon gelaai kan word. Die huis het ligte en toegruste gas geysers, stoof ens. Is teen R27 geleë wat tog 'n gevoel van onveiligheid gee, hoewel dit tog veilig was.

Great overnight stay. The remoteness and quietness is wonderful. Had a lovely overnight stay on the way up to the Kgalagadi.

Quiet. We chose this over accommodation in Brandvlei itself. The quiet farm was a very good discharge. Two items that may count for other customers: 1. Farm pond was not clean for swimming. 2. No Eskom power, ie inverter that lights and a mobile phone charger. It wasn't a problem for one night, but I think it's necessary to put this clearly on the website.

Stil. Ons het hierdie gekies bo akkommodasie in Brandvlei self. Die stil plaas was 'n baie goeie ontlading. Twee items wat vir ander klante kan tel: 1. Plaasdam was nie skoon vir swem nie. 2. Geen Eskom krag, maw inverter wat ligte en 'n selfoon laaier. Dit was nie 'n probleem nie vir een aand nie, maar ek dink dis nodig om hierdie duidelik op die webwerf te plaas.

Rested After a long day on the road, it was lovely to be received kindly. We had a nice barbecue under the stars and rested well in the comfortable accommodation.

Uitgerus. Na 'n lang dag op die pad, was dit heerlik om vriendelik ontvang te word. Ons het lekker gebraai onder die sterre en goed uitgerus in die gemaklike verblyf.

Rustic, but clean. Accommodation was clean. No power but the gas fridge works well. Kitchen has the necessary cutlery and crockery. Limited water pressure and gas water heating make showers a little difficult but manageable. Overall very pleasant stay. Well positioned for bird watching.

Comfortable, spacious and clean. Great location for bird watchers. Extremely helpful hostess.

Gerieflik, ruim en skoon. Wonderlike ligging vir voëlkykers. Uiters behulpsame gasvrou.

Excellent location and such a comfortable stop! Well recommended to all travelers on their way north. We enjoyed the comfort and privacy of "Oom Benna se huis" with a wonderful sense of the past as if you are really "kuiering" with Oom Benna and his family. It is really great to stay in this farm house which has been tastefully restored to its former self lacking nothing with regards to comfort. Swimming in the small farm dam was an added extra to our comfort.
