I highly recommend this place! Human! We felt like family coming home. And that's no exaggeration. We will definitely go here again and again. From the most incredible food, which we arranged in advance, to the service and friendliness of the kitchen staff, to the giant fireplaces in the living and dining area. And it goes all the way to the beautiful room, the continuous availability of coffee and rusks in the lounge area and the hospitality of our host and hostess. Had precious conversations. My husband's bird watching trip was a life-changer for him (pun intended). He added more than 20 lifers to his list. It was bitterly cold, but the warmth in the room and lounge area and the general feeling of welcome meant we didn't even feel the cold. The silence and peace are almost tangible. Beautiful place and people!

Ek beveel hierdie plek met graagte aan! Mensig! Ons het gevoel soos familie wat tuiskom. En dit is geen oordrywing nie. Hierheen sal ons beslis weer en weer gaan. Van die ongelooflikste kos, wat ons vooraf gereël het, tot die diens en vriendelikheid van kombuispersoneel, tot by die reusekaggelvure in die sit- en eetkamerdeel. En dit gaan regdeur tot by die pragtige kamer, die deurlopende beskikbaarheid van koffie en beskuit in die kuierdeel en die gasvryheid van ons gasheer en gasvrou. Kosbare gesprekke gehad. My man se voëlkykrit was vir hom 'n lifer-changer (pun intended). Hy het meer as 20 lifers by sy lysie gevoeg. Dit was bitter koud, maar die warmte in die kamer en kuierdeel en wat die algemene gevoel van welkom betref, het ons die koue nie eers gevoel nie. Die stilte en vrede is byna tasbaar. Beautiful plek en mense!

A taste of the real South Africa. It was epic. A taste of real South Africa. The hosts couldn't have done any more to make our stay more special and memorable. Even Henry the Hippo came to say hello. Very highly recommended and would definitely stay for longer next time! The venison pie was out of this world. Such an enjoyable stay.

Beautiful picture. Ideal for a stopover on the way or for an extended visit. The view is breathtaking over the river. We wanted to do the trip to the hippo pond, but it was a bit out of our budget. The aircon's location was not ideal for the heat, but it still brought some joy. Will definitely stay again.

Prentjie mooi. Ideaal vir oorslaap oppad of vir 'n extended kuier. Die uitsig is asemrowend oor die rivier. Ons wou graag die rit na die hippo pond doen, maar dit was bietjie uit ons begroting. Die aircon se ligging was nie ideaal vir die hitte nie, maar dit het tog lavenis gebring. Sal beslis weer oorbly.

The visit was wonderful. The food at breakfast and dinner was excellent. We had a nice stay. The room is comfortable. The bed is comfortable. Small coffee station and a hairdryer. The 2 drives we took were enjoyable. Only saw a small variety of birds.

Die kuier was heerlik. Die kos met ontbyt en aandete was voortreflik. Ons het lekker gebly. Die kamer is gerieflik. Die bed is gerieflik. Klein koffiestasie en 'n haardroër. Die 2 ritte wat ons geneem het, was genotvol. Net min verskeidenheid voëls gesien.

An oasis in the Karoo. Great halfway stop to the Cape, but still far enough to get away from towns and major roads.

Enjoy the local peace and quiet. We stayed overnight on our way back from the coast. Would have liked to spend a little more time there. Food was top notch.

Geniet die plaaslike stilte en rustigheid. Ons het oornag oppad terug van die kus af. Sou graag nog 'n rukkie daar wou spandeer. Kos was uit die boonste rakke.

Pleasant stay. Beautiful and tranquil surroundings. My room couldn't lock: the door leading to the passage had no key, and the glass sliding door to the outside had a faulty locking mechanism. As a solo female traveller, this was not ideal for safety reasons.
