Quiet and cozy to sink into that leather couch and the king-sized bed. A gem in the arid Karoo! Chalet 3 is the best furnished accommodation I have ever experienced. And the swimming pool is a refreshing treat after a long and hot day on the road. Far enough from the main road that you don't hear the traffic!

Rustig en snoesig om in daai leer rusbank in te sak en die koning grootte bed. 'n Juweel in die dorre Karoo! Chalet 3 is die beste gemeubileerde verblyf wat ek nog beleef het. En die swembad is 'n lafenis wat mens verkwik na 'n lang en warm dag op die pad. Ver genoeg van die hoofpad dat jy nie die verkeer hoor nie!

Quiet, clean, private. Nice stay. Clean. On the edge of town, feels like on the farm. Highly recommended!

Rustig, skoon, privaat. Lekker gebly. Skoon. Op die kant van die dorp, voel soos op die plaas. Hoogs aan te beveel!

Lovely, family friendly stay at Tarantula. We had a lovely stay at Tarantula. We were well received by our host, who was very friendly and accommodating of our needs and those of the children. The accommodation exceeded our expectations and the children thoroughly enjoyed the stay.
