96 guests' feedbackExcellent stay, nice warm fireplace and electric blankets. Nice and cold evenings were not a problem.
The stay was fantastic. The cleanliness of the chalet stood out, making for a comfortable and enjoyable experience. Not to mention, the heated floors and electric beds provided the perfect level of warmth, adding an extra touch of luxury to the getaway. I would love to return for another stay and highly recommend it to anyone seeking a break from the city without sacrificing comfort and convenience.
Wonderful place for peace and quiet. Stay was excellent, no complaints.
Very nice place, peaceful in nature!
Beautiful, spotlessly clean cottage with everything you need for self-catering, the herd of Blesbok grazing in front of the cottages is a bonus! We did the 3 km and 9 km hikes and were blown away by the beauty and how well they were maintained. There are also lovely MTB trails. Highly recommended!
What a place. Clean. Tidy. Quickly. When Eskom went down, the big generator started immediately.
What an absolute gem! It's basic, but comfortable. The staff is incredibly friendly, warm and welcoming. And the location – breathtaking. Well worth a visit. Make sure you book more days than you think you need.
Perfect for our needs and type of travel.
Breathtakingly beautiful setting in the mountains. The unit was clean and very well stocked with cutlery. The bonus was the skottel braai on the patio.
Very nice, thank you.
It was a very peaceful weekend with my husband and our children. The place has a beautiful view. The unit is very well equipped with everything needed and is serviced daily. The owners are very helpful and friendly. The hiking trails are also a nice activity for all the hikers among us and there was a climb to the top of Camelroc.
Very nice stay, everything neat and clean. If we were still fit and younger, we would definitely have done a hiking trail. Nice fireplace and well equipped kitchen, nice hot shower.
Whilst our stay was only overnight we will certainly be back for a longer period as the area has a lot to offer.
We had a fantastic time at Camelroc. The weather was nice and cold and the chalet cozy and warm with the fireplace and warm blanket. There are beautiful walking trails on site. A peaceful place to recharge for sure.
Everything was neat and clean. Everything worked. Nice fireplace that worked well.
Very neat, clean, fireplace was a hit. Will definitely go again.
We were received very kindly. The charlet had everything you could ever need. Power all the time, nice and quiet, close to Clarens for the day and just relaxing.
Breathtaking view of the mountains in front of you and comfortable, tidy accommodation and friendly people.
Refreshing getaway to just kick back and relax as well as enjoy the outdoors.
The house is very neat and clean. The lawns are very well maintained and the blesboks come up to 20 m from you if you are quiet and come to eat on the green grass. The fireplace makes it very cozy and warm even if it is cold outside in the evening. Friendly staff and reception, will definitely go again.
Beautiful nature on the hiking trails in the mountain. The hiking trail up to Camelroc is not intended for the unfit, but the view is definitely worth the toil and sweat! From exotic mushrooms to goats, lizards, eagles and San petroglyphs were to be seen on our route. The ice cold swim after the walk gave our aching legs new life. We will definitely come here again to recharge our life batteries!
Perfect for being calm and relaxing. Nice environment and comfortable for walking and exploring.
Relaxing, piece of heaven. Perfect place to unwind. Lovely walks and mini waterfalls on the property are a bonus. Friendly hosts and well-appointed chalets.
The fireplace in the room was also a plus. Create a nice atmosphere.
It's a beautifully equipped chalet with a lovely fireplace for the cold. Beautiful hiking trails. Host was very friendly and helpful.
I would recommend Camelroc for families who wish to spend time in a beautiful area. The only drawback we found was the noise which carried over from the border post traffic and personnel until late at night.
Great safe place to stay.
Here you can relax properly. Really enjoyed the hiking trails. Ideal place to recharge your batteries.
We felt welcomed by the hosts, great farm overlooking the mountain. Great hiking trails, easy to walk. The scenery is awesome from the top. The farm is close to one of the border posts with Lesotho. It got a bit noisy at times but nothing too serious. We will go back!
The accommodation and the view were amazing. Beautiful place.
Was a last minute decision to go out. They had one place for us and we really enjoyed it, there was always power and hot water.
Rest for the soul without cell phone reception, there was WiFi but wouldn't work. There is incredible scenery to appreciate and enjoy.
Maybe more to do for kids - they are very bored.
It is truly a special place with wonderful hiking trails in the mountains and area. Our dog child also enjoyed it. Unit 4 with its built-in fireplace was very special for the two of us and the cold was nothing.
Had a pleasant weekend.
We would be happy to book again at Camelroc Guest Farm. Feel free to also do the walking routes. Relax and enjoy nature.
The mountain views are amazing and viewing Lesotho, which is a walking distance is a life time experience, the service is amazing and everything is perfect about the place.
Hiking trails were breathtaking. Chalet was very nice clean and well furnished. Owners were very friendly and also the dogs were friendly. Will visit Camelroc again it was very good for the soul.
Well worth the money. Laundry was done and returned the same day for a tiny fee. Stunning scenery and Dermot was extremely accommodating.
Stay was very pleasant. Friendly welcome and chalet was neat and clean and well equipped with everything in working order. Cleaning services were regular.
See stars.
Very nice stay with the beautiful view!
If one is looking for somewhere to unwind this is it. The surrounds are wonderful, the accommodation is first class with the chalets being well kitted out. For those who are keen on biking, running or just walking with or without children this is the place.
Nice halfway house for our trip on the way to Afriski.
We had a nice stay, it is at the Lesotho border. I must say the place's linens were incredibly clean. And everything was neat. I would definitely recommend it.
Very close to Lesotho border post, probably 500 m. Room neat and service was very good. Will definitely visit there again when I come that way. Hospitable and rooms and beds were very neat and clean and everything you need was up to standard.
I was great definitely coming back again.
Fantastic atmosphere! The accommodation is wonderfully appointed. Enough towels and how quality linen. We slept wonderfully warm. Incredible view of the Malutiberg range and plenty of hiking trails to explore the area.
Only place where we were a little dissatisfied was that the toilet leaked in our unit. But it was cleaned regularly and the cleaners were very helpful with the matter. The view is beautiful and the units are so nicely equipped with everything you need. There is a lovely outdoor barbecue area as well as a nice fireplace inside.
Lots to do. Horse riding. Step. Etc.
The scenery was an absolute wonder. Would definitely recommend it to anyone.
Good location, many attractions, excellent accommodation.
Camelroc is a very beautiful place with peace of mind.
We had an amazing stay at Camelroc Guest Farm. The chalet was exceptionally clean, well equipped with everything we needed. Our stay was both relaxing and adventurous, with very well-marked hiking routes on the mountain and breathtaking views. It was a perfect break away from the rush of the city and some well-deserved family time away from technology (they do have wifi). We will surely be back for another, even longer visit. A big thank you to our friendly hosts, Dermot and Yvette.
Loved the quiet, and the natural beauty of the sandstone cliffs, gorgeous yellow light and pristine surrounds. The cottage is spacious and private, with everything you need. Access to beautiful walks from your doorstep. A beautiful place. Don't drive there via the R26, terrible road (but it was definitely worth it!).
The whole family was very active: Could do nice trail running and also explore the mountains. The owner (Dermot) helped us out of a predicament, where we got stuck on a mud road, on a visit to a local landmark. Thanks again, Dermot.
We will be back in the future and having WiFi was great. As cell phones had little or no reception just the way we like it.
Beautiful, tranquil and restful.
We had a 3-bed chalet, which was very neat and clean. The kitchen is well equipped. The view of the mountains is breathtakingly beautiful. The hiking trails are well planned and very well maintained. The owners are very friendly and helpful. Their dogs enjoy venturing out on the hiking trails with the vacationers. The downside was the Calendonpoort border post is close to the resort and the noise (music) is sometimes disturbing.
A beautiful, tidy chalet with everything you need. The environment is breathtaking. Will definitely make an effort to spend time there again.
We loved the hiking, and felt perfectly safe.
Very friendly service, we had a great stay. The fireplace in the room was a winner, would stay there again.
Camelroc owners are very friendly and helpful. Will definitely go again. Unit neat and clean. Hiking to the top of the mountain on Camelroc rock is a must-do.
Very nice and comfortable chalet in which we stayed and a wonderful view when you sit on the deck early in the morning and drink coffee. The location with the mountains is something to experience and the river that can be softly heard in the evenings. Bald goats grazing around the farm were also nice to see. The two friendly dogs who came to visit every day until late at night. Very nice stay and will definitely recommend to people.
Hiking trails are a challenge.
Unit clean, comfortable and spacious, equipped with all that is needed to make your stay enjoyable. Lovely deck and braai area overlooking the Mountains.
Camelroc is located right on the Caledon River which gives you very easy access to Lesotho to visit any interesting places.
I will definitely go here again. The tranquility is just what we needed to recharge the batteries. And safe for our kids to walk around and play. The hiking trails are a must for those who have never gone hiking, the view is stunning.
Everything you need, tidy, beautiful mountains around you, rooms are nice and big.
Neat house with lots of space. Well equipped. Nice views. Would recommend Camelroc.
See stars.
The guest farm is truly special with very hospitable owners.
Lovely place with lots of potential. Chalets are slightly run-down and could definitely do with some upgrading. But the incredible location more than makes up for it. Lovely hiking trails in the mountains.
I recommend visiting Camelroc for the quiet, tremendous views and stimulating daily walks.
Rustig tussen die berge. Staproetes en fietsryroetes. Alles wat jy benodig in die huisie.
View is excellent and has all the amenities one needs. Place was clean and had no complaints. Would recommend the place!
These are very well appointed chalets in the foothills of the mountains. We had blesbok feeding in front of us. They are very clean, well laid out, with everything you may need for a great stay. The views from the chalet are breathtaking. Unfortunately we were there as a stop over, but it looks like they have magic hikes from the chalets up the mountain.
On the Lesotho border so you can cross into Lesotho for the day. Close enough to Fouriesburg town and Clarens where you can shop.
Baie dankie se regtig een van die lekkerste vakansies met soveel wandelpaadjies en staproetes om te kies dit het ons behoorlik vir 6 dae lekker besig gehou. Chalet 6 was omtrent perfek en baie lekker gebraai met pragtige uitsig. 10/10 en sal enige tyd weer in toekoms kom kuier. Chalets het ook alles wat mens nodig het, bring net kos en koeldrank. Alles anders is daar met komberse, handdoeke, stoof, yskas ens.
Very quiet and safe. Clean and tidy. Hospitality very good.
We really enjoyed the tranquility and hiking trails.
Without asking, they upgraded us to a larger unit at no extra charge. Appreciated it very much.
The service was very friendly and the location perfect. We have in no. 10 stayed. The pillows in the master bedroom were very hard and smelled of sweat. The bed also needs a new mattress because we kept rolling inwards on the mattress. What we would like to see is that there is at least tea and coffee available for the guests. We use different types of accommodation during the year and mostly there is coffee and tea available in the rooms, especially if it is self-catering. You just have to take everything with you, as well as extra toilet paper because you only get one thin roll per day. For us as a family of 4, it was definitely too little. Overall, Camelroc was a beautiful farm.
Kitchen is fully equipped. Beds have electric blankets on them for the cold Free State winter. Living room has a fireplace. Our dogs were allowed which was a plus. Unit was clean and tidy upon arrival.
Hou van die ligging in die berge. Baie stil en rustig. Gerieflike en voldoende verblyf.
Will definitely go there again, was very relaxing, people from Camelroc are very friendly and helpful.
Camelroc is located at the Lesotho border which was perfect for us. The unit was clean with everything we could need. Friendly animals that came to visit made the stay extra special.
Will definitely revisit Camelroc Guest Farm.
Incredible place. Really value for money and beautifully located. If Lesotho is your destination, there are no better places. The name board just before the Calendonspoort border post just needs to be made more clearly visible with maybe a small card on it like you receive by email ahead of time. Dermot they are great.
Our expectations were exceeded with the hospitality and good value for money. Chalet No 7 is well laid out and then we don't even talk about the wonderful view.
The place has a tranquillity with the most beautiful scenery. The owners Dermot and Yvette are very friendly and helpful. The Chalets are well equipped with everything needed and are very neat and clean, both inside and outside at the braai area. It is a beautiful place that I would boldly recommend to friends and family and will definitely go there again.
We stayed one night on our way to Lesotho, what will make us visit again, besides the nice accommodation, is the 30 km 4x4 route to be done.
Such a beautiful, tranquil place to stay, with lovely scenery. The chalet was beautiful, comfortable, and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed the hiking trail. And close enough to Clarens and Golden Gate. I would definitely recommend Camelroc for a break away.
We will be back!
The ideal place to stay to experience nature. There are very clear hiking and mountain biking trails laid out over a large area. You can go up the mountain to appreciate the view over Lesotho, or go looking for petroglyphs on the river bank. The border post nearby is noisy until late in the evening. The last bit of the access road is bad. But otherwise we had a nice stay.
We were welcomed by our host and shown to very comfortable, cosy and well appointed accommodation. The view from our thatched cottage was outstanding. We were only there for an overnight stop so were unable to try the hikes which sounded so awesome or the pool area where one could enjoy a braai, swim and perhaps meet other people.
