Unwinding in style, the perfect blend of luxury & nature, hospitality at its finest. A magical escape: five stars for The Barnard’s Barnyard! If you are looking for the ultimate escape where luxury seamlessly meets the rugged beauty of nature, look no further than the glamping tent at The Barnard’s Barnyard. We spent this past weekend here, and to say we were blown away would be an understatement. It is, without a doubt, a five-star hidden gem. The perfect blend of luxury & nature. The setup redefines what glamping should be. The tent itself is absolutely magnificent—impeccably styled, incredibly spacious, and outfitted with every creature comfort you could possibly wish for. Curling up in a beautifully dressed, ultra-comfortable bed while listening to the gentle sounds of the night was pure bliss. It offers all the romance of sleeping under the stars, but with the luxury of a premium boutique hotel. Unwinding in style. The attention to detail across the property is exceptional. Whether we were enjoying a morning coffee with uninterrupted views, soaking in the peaceful atmosphere, or relaxing by the fire as the sun went down, every moment felt intentionally designed for pure relaxation. It is the perfect place to unplug, recharge, and completely forget about the rush of everyday life. Hospitality at its finest. The warmth and atmosphere of the Barnyard make you feel instantly at home, yet entirely exclusive. Every corner of the space reflects thoughtful curation and high-quality craftsmanship, making it incredibly hard to pack up and leave when Monday rolled around. Thank you to the team at The Barnard’s Barnyard for creating such a spectacular sanctuary. We left feeling completely refreshed and are already counting down the days until we can return! Highly, highly recommended.

Pure bliss so close to home. Fantastic getaway so close to home. The glamping tent has everything needed for a very chilled stay. . Loved the animals and the fishing was sublime. Even though I lost the comp to my partner. Loved every minute. . Thanks Bernice!!!! I'll definitely recommend this spot to family and friends.

Fantastic. We enjoyed our stay at The Barnard's Barnyard - everything was very clean and the kitchen was well equipped. We enjoyed the hot tub - that was the best.

Disappointing. Amenities listed, namely fishing, canoeing and ziplining as advertised were not available. Fishing weekend paid for was not possible. That's what I paid for but didn't get. Was disappointing.

Teleurstellend. Geriewe gelys, nl. Visvang, kano en zipline soos geadverteer was nie beskikbaar nie. Visvang naweek waarvoor betaal was, was nie moontlik nie. Dis waarvoor ek betaal het, maar nie gekry het nie. Was teleurstellend.

Wonderful easy getaway. We have been to "The Barnard's Barnyard" three times with friends. It is always nice, easy to get to and peaceful. We will definitely go again. Thank you very much for everything.

Wonderlike maklike wegbreek. Ons was al drie keer by "The Barnard's Barnyard" saam met vriende. Dit is altyd lekker, maklik om daar uit te kom en rustig. Ons sal definitief weer gaan. Baie dankie vir alles.
