224 guests' feedbackVery neat, clean place. Very nice stay. Free wood for the barbecue was a bonus. We stayed in the tent and slept wonderfully warm.
We always have a great time at Aberdeen self catering! Thank you very much.
Comfortable, value for money accommodation close to the N1.
Very nice stay. All that is needed and people are very hospitable. Place is half bohemian with color and all the comfortable places to hang out outside.
Our overnight stop at was delicious. The area was very well maintained and our unit was clean, comfortable and well equipped. The host was very friendly and helpful and the communication was excellent.
We were surprised with Aberdeen as a town, especially its cleanliness. We had a great time with the owner of the accommodation. We immediately felt at home. This is not your normal unit, but rather a homely feel.
Highly recommend. Don't even think twice.
This is a little hidden GEM! Each spot has its own private section where you can barbecue or light a fire, and the lapa is so beautiful. It is really for the people who prefer rustic. Very pleasant place.
Interesting interior decoration.
It was a very nice experience staying at Aberdeen self-catering. The place is very cute set up with friendly owners.
Very peaceful, friendly service and a nice place to relax after a day on the road.
The facilities have been upgraded - an improvement over the previous offering. Very pleasant quiet environment. Ideal as a stopover on a longer journey.
It was a very nice place to stay, clean and tidy, and the host was very friendly and helpful.
Very safe place to spend the night, nice place to visit under lapa. Sleeping place is neat and clean. Braai area well equipped.
Very nice stay. Will definitely come again. Stay was peaceful and rooms very tidy.
Average. Ideal for someone who likes to camp. Not for my body.
We didn't stay there. It just wasn't for us. It was our fault because we got it wrong. Couldn't believe a place like Aberdeen had tent accommodation.
What a lovely overnight stay! Neat, clean Karoo accommodation, fully equipped. You are a star, thank you for explaining everything so beautifully and making us feel very welcome! We had such a good time, we will definitely come again!
It is a cool oasis in the hot Karoo. Friendly hospitable people. Very nice stay.
Stayed. Super friendly people, very helpful. Nice clean accommodation, well located. We really enjoyed our one night!
Very nice as always! Never disappointed.
Very nice place to stay at good rates. We took the glamping option, but the facilities were better than most guesthouses I've stayed in before.
We stayed in the tent, was a lovely experience, and the most luxurious camping we'd ever had. The campsite is incredibly spacious with a wonderful braai and relaxation area. We had a kitchen to ourselves, as well as a shower and toilet, so no shared facilities. It's the kind of place where you can easily spend a happy week. Jurgens is an enthusiastic, thoughtful host, who has considered every single thing you might need.
Thank you Nomi. Indeed a little gem in Aberdeen. If it was not for being on the road, would have taken the time to chill in this amazing atmosphere.
It's really a very interesting place to stay. The decor is very well done everywhere, both inside and outside. There is plenty of space inside and outside to sit and grill or just relax. We could see from our previous visit how the owner is improving the place, and he still has big plans for the future. We would stay here again!
We enjoyed the reception and the WhatsApp welcome. Slept very well and had a great shower.
We were very warmly and kindly received, even though we arrived late. Our stay was top notch and I would recommend it to anyone.
Friendly people and neat room within walking distance to businesses.
Will definitely visit again.
It was love at first sight from the moment the gates opened I enjoyed the relaxing environment thank you to Jessica for the amazing communication I am definitely coming back with my kids and I won't change anything Abt the place just maybe the DStv package for the sports but that place is awesome.
Was pleasantly surprised with the accommodation quiet and peaceful, neat and clean everything you need. Jurgens and Jessica received us very kindly. Will definitely stay there again.
An oasis in a small town. Friendly reception. All in great, working condition. Will definitely go again and recommend it.
We stayed in the tent accommodation. It had been a wonderful experience. So much more than we expected from a small town, which one might normally avoid. We were kindly received and shown where everything was. Again, a pity that it was only a place to stay the night for us and that one was in such a hurry. Thank you very much Jurgens and team.
We just overslept but really enjoyed it. The place is clean, with lots of space. We could have bought braai packs or a ready meal, you also get a bag of wood for free so you don't have to bring it with you. There were cookies and crackers for sale, and gas for when the power went out. Your car is safe, and didn't need to collect the bikes. We will definitely sleep over again, it was a nice Karoo sleepover.
The accommodation was a pleasant surprise. Clean, backup power, well equipped. And a "thank you" to our host.
Very peaceful atmosphere, we were made to feel very welcome and everything was very tidy.
The owner and managers were available at checking in, friendly, showed us around and were most hospitable throughout our stay. Our glamping area was large, private and everything was well thought out, provided and presented. We had a swim in the fabulous pool, which was clean and wonderfully refreshing in the Karoo heat. We had a memorable, 5-star glamping experience and have already told our friends about it.
Very nice stay and the owner is very hospitable.
See stars.
Thank you very much for a nice, safe place set up and hospitality.
One of our new favorite overnight stops after Mossel Bay. We like the personal involvement of the owner and the friendly reception. The amenities are exactly what we wanted.
Accommodation was very good, friendly welcome and very helpful.
Aberdeen Self-Catering consists of a few cottages and appears to have been developed for the biker community. The garden is special and planted for the drought. Loves the company of dogs, cats and poultry. The house we were in is opposite Voortrekker Street, and it is a thoroughfare. Instead of silence, there was traffic on the road all night! Choose one of the houses on the back street.
See stars.
Nomi, the manageress, waited for us to arrive, assisted us with salads, and made us feel at home, many thanks for that, your hospitality after a bad day on the road was much appreciated.
Comfortable with swimming pool for cooling off and lapa for a nice visit.
Will definitely visit them again.
The lady, Naomi, checked on us all the time. Made us feel welcome. Beautiful place for peace of mind.
Characterful overnight facility with everything you need and genuine Karoo friendliness. Naomi went out of her way to make everything go 100%. Delicious barbecue packages available and breakfast can really be recommended. We will definitely stay here again.
Cute little place, very beautiful and peaceful, especially with the animals walking around. Will definitely stay there again on the way to the western cape!
All that one needs.
The unit was clean and spacious for the 4 of us. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Great location.
Nice rest stop on the N9. Kindness and hospitality.
It was nice to sit outside and relax after the day's travel. The dogs are friendly and the chickens also run around there. A cozy place and the otherness makes it special.
Jurgens, thank you very much for the beautiful, beautiful and tidy place. Each place promises its own unique experience and it was wonderful to be able to spend the night there with you. Thank you very much.
It's a gem in Aberdeen, was so peaceful and quiet. We walked around the streets after 18:00 like in the good old days. We were very friendly and warmly received and shown around, just felt at home. Would stay there again anytime.
We had an amazing stay in the unit for 5. The house was very clean and tidy. Everything you need. Nomi, thank you very much for your kindness and hospitality.
Very nice stay. Nice swimming pool and barbecue area. House is very cute and well furnished. Received very good service. Will definitely stay there again.
We were personally contacted on WhatsApp after our booking to welcome us and inform about dinner and breakfast options even though they are actually a self catering entity. This was a welcome outcome for us. The people came to greet us like "long lost family" and had a lovely time with us around the 2 delicious meals. All our needs were addressed without even asking and the karoo bonfire under the stars was just what the doctor ordered! Great service and we will definitely visit again. Many thanks to Jurgen and his team. Greetings Pieter and Elma Vertue.
Friendly service! Very good food can easily recommend to eat there too! Value for money and enjoy!
Nice garden area, dogs are friendly. Very pleasant people.
The fact that you have secure parking and total privacy makes it very nice, would go again anytime.
We were pleasantly surprised by the lovely atmosphere at Aberdeen Self catering. The interesting decor and unexpected seats and paths were very cute and beautiful. The atmosphere is welcoming and relaxed. Thank you Nomi for your kind service. We would love to stay with you again and recommend the place with pleasure.
Nomi was the perfect host. Just a pity our bedroom did not have any windows as we felt claustrophobic during Eskom power outage.
Peaceful and relaxed.
Our family of 5 just needed a place to sleep in the Aberdeen area. This place was very well equipped. We had options for meals or packed lunches to grill ourselves.
Nomi received us with the typical Karoo honest and sincere honesty and kindness.
Nomi made us feel welcome and looked after our interests. There is a friendly atmosphere and you feel at home.
People who work there are very nice and happy to help.
The power was off all night when we were there and it was extremely hot. Furthermore, the people are very friendly and the place is clean and tidy.
4th time there, will stay again.
Neat, had privacy.
Very good overnight stay exactly as advertised.
Pleasant host. Lots of space in the room. Parking space is scarce. Another guest crashed into my vehicle due to limited space.
As soon as you stepped in, you felt welcome and received a very friendly welcome, you really felt like you were visiting family. Layout of garden, swimming pool buildings and sleeping facilities is excellently done. Aberdeen Self Catering will see me again shortly. Thorough value for money.
After a long journey, one truly feels welcome at this venue.
Very helpful and friendly.
Enjoyed our stay, good location. Very peaceful. Good off-street parking. Interesting place.
I will recommend you to all my friends and family.
Very calm and quiet. Good for relaxing. Enough space and good firewood.
Really a peaceful time that we enjoyed. It lets you relax with the tranquility.
We were kindly received and treated by all the staff. It's a safe environment where we could let the children (2 and 4) explore and have fun swimming too. The unit is well equipped and clean. The private braai area and wood provided contributed to a nice home feeling. We will definitely visit here again if we come in the direction.
Jurgens the owner was friendly and nimble!
It feels like you are on a farm.
Our first time glamping and we were pleasantly surprised. There was everything we needed with a beautiful setting. The host made sure everything was perfect.
The unit was equipped with everything needed. The bag of wood and braai facilities that are available make it a typical Karoo experience!
This is the reason why I am going to make Aberdeen my future home.
Aberdeen Self-Catering offers a unique experience and caters for groups such as for a family visit. The owner is very hospitable and each room has everything you need to sleep comfortably and safely.
Very friendly welcome. Biscuit in the kitchen and chocolate in the room. Lots of seats in the garden. No traffic noise. Tidy. Our overnight stop in the future on the N9.
The service was friendly and the rooms were nice and clean. Nice little kitchen area.
Best place in Aberdeen! Very unique and interesting! Friendly and awesome space to stay with everything you need. Thank you!
Very well equipped accommodation with kitchen facilities and private ablutions with tent under spacious canopy. We are pensioners and were there midweek and had a very nice stay. Think it might get noisy on weekends. A drop down awning in front of the kitchen area will give more privacy.
Always nice to spend the night here, I went by motorbike and the management and staff were so nice and friendly, barbecue packets and salads and barbecue sandwiches very delicious.
Will definitely visit again.
The cottage is well equipped and quiet.
Very neat and comfortable, got more than we expected. Had a quick but lovely visit.
The geyser at the tent was problematic and the hostess decided out of her own to upgrade us. She also takes guests around the entire property to explain the setup - very impressive.
The unit we stayed in at Aberdeen Self-catering has beautiful clean and spacious facilities with a nice outdoor kitchen and lounge area. The large garden and swimming pool are lovely. We felt totally refreshed and ready for the long journey to Bloemfontein. It's truly an oasis and highly recommendable, in my opinion. Our accommodation was also completely private, which added to a sense of absolute tranquility. The puppy, Toffie, stole our hearts!
Made sure we had everything we needed and were comfortable. Helpful and friendly as you only get in the countryside.
Wow, now that was a pleasant surprise. So clean, everything you need is already there. The outdoor shower is something else, everything was just as clean, would love to stay longer if we could. There you can rest and appreciate the silence, Aberdeen as an overnight destination is underestimated. Plan your trip so you can pack up and rest for the long haul. Aberdeen Self Catering is your resting place, again, so so clean.
Friendly, neat, comfortable, just nice!
Everything was so clean and tidy. Friendly welcome from Jurgens. So quiet and peaceful. Vehicle is safe in the secure complex. Everything you need is in the rooms. It was honestly very nice and we will definitely spend the night there again. Thank you very much for your kindness.
Very neat and clean. Jurgens made us feel very welcome. Nicely grilled with the braai packs that were for sale (Karoolam). Jurgens' unique creations on site make it very interesting. Can highly recommend them.
We slept in the modern tent. Air conditioning, own kitchen and bathroom. Thank you very much. We had a very nice stay.
Was kindly received. Sorry it was really windy and cold and couldn't sit outside. The only downside was the gas stove was outside the unit and made cooking difficult with the weather. Will consider place again if we travel.
Problems with hot water at shower and sink. Staff helped us well to get shower ready. Next morning hot water was 100% back.
Have fun. Will book there again if we travel.
Friendly and good people.
We were received very hospitably. We slept in the luxury tent which was very well equipped with everything we needed. Everything was clean and tidy. All that really bothered me was the neighbours' rooster that crowed constantly from 03:00 (maybe it wouldn't have been so bad if we had accepted the room that was available and offered by the host).
Friendly welcome. Comfortable and spacious rooms and cozy outdoor areas.
Clean and tidy. Excellent service, pleasant people.
Small town, not much to do, but perfect for a short break. The accommodation is fully equipped with everything you need.
Thank you for the comfortable overnight stay.
Will definitely stay there again on a next route to the Cape.
It was a great cremation. Creativity at excellence. It is truly something to experience and a place I would definitely like to go back to. Well done to the owner.
It was nice to be there.
We had a very nice stay. The tent setup is well appointed. Great service. Can recommend Aberdeen Self Catering for sure.
Well equipped. Friendly people and bikers paradise.
Beautifully furnished, private unit with comfortable braai area and patio. Received professionally and immediately felt at home. Well worth it and they will definitely see us again.
Neat friendly everything you need. Very comfortable. The pool is bonus. An oasis on a long journey.
Interesting, unique place to stay. Creatively furnished. Children enjoyed the farm animals so much!
It was such a surprise when we stopped there. It was the cutest place. The accommodations were so cutely furnished with everything and more you could need. The fact that we had 7 German shepherds together is also a big plus. The children and adults thoroughly enjoyed the farm pond swimming pool and spent hours in it. We will definitely stay there again when we go on vacation. We felt so relaxed and rested.
Absolutely super place.
Beautiful place with loads of surprise elements around every corner! Good value for money! We'll be back again!
Very clean and very friendly service, delicious salad, would definitely recommend and go there again.
Very spacious and neat facilities with a full kitchen. Helpful and friendly service.
This phenomenal resort is an architectural wonder with great flow and a really nice swimming pool.
Friendly host. I found the development and decor of the accommodation unique.
Really interesting. Artist type. Large cottages with all amenities. Very clean.
The house had everything we needed, even coffee, tea, milk and rusks (replenished everyday). Very clean. We enjoyed our stay.
The setup is an innovative reconfiguration of four former properties (the owner is an architect). The Klein Karoo cottage and the luxury tent have all mod cons and there is a pool, the owners are welcoming, so the hospitality can't be faulted.
The stay in Aberdeen was very pleasant. We were received very kindly. The Aberdeen Self-catering place is a very neat and interesting place to stay overnight with small water streams etc. Would recommend anytime!
Wonderful Karoo hospitality.
Pleasant and peaceful setting, cool off in the pool. The facility/house is very fully equipped. People in wheelchairs may have some challenges. The mosquitoes provided excitement but the necessary insecticides did their job. Would suggest putting a glass partition/curtain in the shower. The breakfast was very pleasant. In short - very nice stay and slept like a king. See you next time.
Great place to stay, fantastic braai area.
Very friendly service! We were received and helped after check-in time. Very friendly staff and a special place to visit. Would definitely recommend it, as well as for larger groups who may be traveling together.
Unique place. Very peaceful and a charm of its own.
Interesting place with quite a few accommodation options.
We enjoyed our stay. It was very hot so we did not move from our air conditioned room. Lots of mosquitoes, but insecticide and mosquito net provided.
Enjoyed the quietness of the Karoo.
Keep up the standard.
Pool is a winner!
Good halfway stop to the Southern Cape coast.
The photos on the site do not justify this lovely spot. Aberdeen Self-Catering is secure, homely, friendly and very comfortable. The family enjoyed it so much that we will look to stay on longer next time. Well done Jurgens and your team.
A wonderful, relaxing experience to sleep over here! Amenities very good, and only regret we could not stay longer!
I recommend Aberdeen Self-Catering accommodation to any body looking for an over night stay. Very cute. Well organized, very friendly, very helpful, clean accommodation. Safe. Provide a lot of little extra things.
Always just flew by. This time I stopped and it was one of those places that you actually have to stay more than one night. It will be one of my pit stops again when I next visit the Karoo. It was so nice, even the chickens and geese were friendly.
Debbie received us very kindly and we immediately felt at home. Coffee, tea and biscuits welcomed us and dinner was deliciously prepared. Their ginger beer is delicious. Braai wood is provided, but we did not use it. Our self-catering unit was more than adequately equipped and was able to prepare breakfast before leaving for the Kamdeboo National Park. Thank you so much, Debbie and Jurgens! We see you again.
A beautiful place with friendly, hospitable people. We had a great time and would definitely recommend the facility.
I book at a B&B and get a whole house! With a swimming pool. With outdoor kitchen by the braai and, and, and... So neat.
It was very pleasant to arrive there, very tired and bitterly dirty after a mountain bike meeting and the staff, Jurgens welcomes us kindly in a neat, clean environment. Highly recommendable.
Feels like a home away from home. We felt at home immediately. The place is exceptionally neat. Everyone who works there is very friendly and really go out of their way to make your stay pleasant.
I spent the night there with my family for the first time ever. We were very impressed and will definitely stay here again in the future.
Thank you Jurgens that we can stay at your place. It was un unforgettable experience in Aberdeen - a town that we will definitely remember.
The works has to be wow, unexpected, amazing, I cannot think how to explain the unexpected oasis that awaited half way through my trip. If you ever need a break, this is the place to stay.
We travel every year and try to pop into all the little places. Now this was a little paradise. Great showers which is important to me. Cleanliness was top notch. We have you on our list. Visit them, it's peaceful and everything you need is there and more.
Lovely evening in the Karoo. Very cute cottage in beautiful garden with farm animals. It was a cool day and evening so we couldn't swim in that nice pool (next time). My children just want to bring the little lambs in with them. They really enjoyed it.
We had a wonderful time there, love the setup, very kids friendly and staff very friendly. Super place to stay.
To forget about everything, the hustle and bustle, this is the place where you find your soul again. Excellent service, friendly reception.
We really enjoyed it, the whole layout of the place is unique. Well done!
We were five friends, with two lap dogs who slept here. What a pleasant surprise to find this oasis in the middle of Aberdeen! We enjoyed delicious barbecue packages (arranged in advance) and made a fire with the wood they gave us. Swam and felt very safe. We will definitely stay here again. Our hostess, Debbie, was very helpful.
Beautiful place, if you have small children they won't want to leave here. We had a great time. Thank you again for your hospitality.
We enjoyed this stay very much, a cool and peaceful oasis after a long hot journey. The whole site has been transformed into a very characterful and uniquely designed environment. Our unit was equipped with its own veranda and braai area for a cosy stay until late night. Bookings arrangements were smooth and confirmed a day before our arrival. The owner and host are very friendly and considerate, and were able to chat with us. The living rooms and rooms are spacious with ample shower facilities. Just bring in sufficient repellent for mosquitoes; it is apparently a common scourge in Aberdeen!
Spacious units that are well equipped. Lovely visiting areas. Host and wife were very friendly and helpful. Dinner at Gemmerbier Tuin was tasty.
Friendly service. Very peaceful environment.
Neat, all necessities, friendly owners and good place to sleep.
Neat, well-equipped overnight accommodation. Owners go to great lengths to create a small oasis in the Karoo. We really enjoyed our stay, thank you!
Nice place to spend the night. Comfortable beds, beautiful gardens and house.
From the street side you may wonder what is going on here. But when you drive into the gate a surprise awaits. An interesting setting with many recreation areas and all the farm animals make you feel like you are in the countryside. Jurgens welcomes you warmly and the cottage is well equipped with everything you need. The nice braai right in front of the door is convenient for quickly making something for dinner. The shower in the bathtub is not ideal, but in the summer the nice outdoor shower will help a lot. Nice warm bed for the winter.
We had a great night there, everything we needed is there. We were greeted kindly by everyone, even by the animals. The place is beautifully laid out with beautiful gardens. Everything there creates a very peaceful and relaxing atmosphere.
A very interesting place with lots to discover. We were excited about the ingenious way the owner equipped this place. Also nice to sit outside and socialize while enjoying some snacks and a wine.
The pool was not working. The drain system is not functioning properly.
Administration at Aberdeen Self-Catering not up to standard. Couldn't confirm booking in the first place and somewhat absent. Place was clean and tidy, but notice on toilet doors regarding with toilet paper extremely creepy to say the least. Requested to use water provided for kettle but could not get a drop from the container.
We had a wonderful stay and the breakfast was very nice. The owner is a very pleasant person and we would love to stay there again.
Jurgens is a great host and his place was 1 big surprise. Archie and Nico's food was great.
We were blown away! It was the best decision to sleep over in the tiny Karo village! We could bottle up to 2 hanslam sheep.
Friendly reception and very comfortable house in which we stayed.
We were warmly welcomed late in the evening! The facilities were clean and tidy and we slept well. Wish we had been there earlier so we could have cooled off in the lovely pool and used the barbecue facilities. Next time!
Very friendly and helpful and the accommodation was big and spacious.
Clean and comfortable accommodation, friendly staff.
Quiet calm and peace and presence of the Holy Spirit palpable and palpable. Peace of mind and favor of God on the resort!
The friendly reception, cleanliness of the houses and the safety were good.
Friendly service and spacious accommodation. Walking distance to restaurants. Excellent stop-over on way to the Cape.
Nice and clean, everything in its place.
Jurgens is hospitable. We immediately felt at home. Nice place to spend the night if you are tired after a long journey. Will stay there again.
The accommodation is outstanding. The unit was clean and comfortable with everything you needed. Jurgens and his assistant was friendly. It was like visiting an old friend. This guesthouse is highly recommended and has safe and secure parking as well.
The stay was exactly what I expected. Had a good barbecue that evening.
Value for money, clean and friendly people.
Owner must organize a full-time reception. Was not there upon arrival, other than that the accommodation was great, clean, comfortable, safe parking and lovely view of the premises.
The swimming pool is a winner in December!
Located on the main street. Traffic rushing by at night is troublesome. Our bedrooms were almost facing the street. We were requested with a notice not to throw any papers, not even toilet paper in the sink, which was not very pleasant. We trust that this situation will not be permanent. Otherwise the stay was fine.
Quite comfortable and wonderfully quiet.
Very friendly welcome. Enough space for the kiddies to play. The house was very neat and clean. Will stay there again. Thank you very much.
The location is on the main street and very neat. Can recommend the overnight accommodation for sure. Thank you very much Jurgens for your helpfulness and kindness.
Will definitely go again, Clean, neat, friendly staff and we got a lot of wood for free.
Friendly service. Very clean and slept great. Quiet environment and easy to find.
Lovely peaceful visit. will definitely stay there again.
See rating.
Skip the N1. Turn off from the main road and enjoy Aberdeen.
Thank you very much for the 2 days, the apartment is beautiful and has many paintings that make you feel at home in the Karoo. We felt relaxed. My son enjoyed the swimming pool a lot and cried when we went home. I will recommend Aberdeen to anybody who wants to sleep over.
Beautiful lost gem in the Karoo. Friendly reception by the owner. Lovely pool after a long drive and the cottage was well equipped with everything we would need.
Very tidy with all basic necessities. Will stay there again.
Venue can easily accommodate a few families.
Very neat, value for money and a lot of effort has gone into making it a pleasant place.
We were kindly welcomed by Jurgens. The unit was tidy and well-equipped with everything one could need. There was wood for a nice fire which was definitely needed. The grandchildren enjoyed the waterfalls and animals after a long day in the car. There were a lot of mosquitoes but Jurgens had the necessary insect repellents. We will stay there again. Thank you Jurgens for accommodating the extra child.
See stars.
Peace and quiet. Owner put in a lot of effort.
Jurgen was very helpful as we wanted to keep a freezer, which we drove with us on the bakkie, switched on throughout the night. We also had two dogs with us and this was the ideal place to sleep for us. Other guests who stayed over were very friendly and all enjoyed standing by the pool and chatting with something cold in hand. There is a fan in the room, but air conditioning would probably be more effective when very high temperatures are reached, luckily it wasn't that hot the night we slept over. Can definitely recommend Aberdeen Self-Catering place, rates very reasonable.
We were very well received. The place was neat and everything was just as promised by the owner. We had a great stay, it was such a homecoming. The young team that was together enjoyed their holes in the pool. Will stay there again next time. Many thanks to Jurgens and his team, we appreciate what you have achieved. This place is really very neat and everything was in its place.
Clean, neat accommodation. Everything that is needed. Friendly and warm welcome.
Neat and cozy place to visit. Cool canopies and clean swimming area. House is basic but has everything needed for one night's stay.
Old-fashioned hospitality and superbly equipped facilities make the place a winner!
Cute stay. Animals for the children. Clean and tidy. Jurgen is hospitable and made an effort to make our overnight stay pleasant. Unit was well equipped.
Homely, comfortable atmosphere! Unit was neat and clean and everything one needs for self catering.
I just want to thank Jurgens and James for their hospitality. It was a very pleasant time, we wish you all the best.
Friendly, relaxing and refreshing.
Nice and calm and relaxing after the long road.
Met by Jurgens, friendly and helpful. Our chalets were clean, tidy, well maintained and very comfortable. Coffee, tea and rusks waited for us when we arrived. Ideally situated halfway between Mossel Bay and Colesberg. From now on this will be our overnight stop. Not often do we find accommodation as clean, tidy and user friendly as this.
We didn't expect much from Aberdeen but were really surprised with Aberdeen Self-Catering. Jurgen is so friendly and immediately made us feel at home. The accommodation was clean and spacious with everything we needed. It really is one of those places you just have to go to.
Like an oasis in the Karoo. Thank you to Jurgens for the hospitality. The cottage was very clean with everything that's needed. Great place to relax and stunning surroundings.
See the star-rating.

Aberdeen has restrictions such as places to eat There was also a power outage that was no one's fault. The accommodation itself was good, but the environment where it is located means that next time I will stay in Graaff-Reinet instead.
