Gariep N1 Chalets are situated in the middle of South Africa, between Johannesburg and Cape Town and 15 km north of Gariepdam on the Bloemfontein side and about 500 m from the N1 highway. The units are surrounded by typical Karoo nature and offer wonderful views of the farmland, Karoo plains, and great sunsets. It is a perfect halfway stop on-route to Gqeberha (Port Elizabeth) 500 km, East London 450km or Cape Town 800 km or Bloemfontein 180 km.

There are 2 self-catering chalets available, each sleeping 5 guests. The chalets are spacious and well equipped for all self-catering needs and offer a private braai area and a porch to enjoy some family time.

Firewood is available at an additional charge. For the hot Karoo days, a clean farm dam offers a refreshing cool-off.

This is a perfect stopover and within 15 minutes guests can visit the Gariep Dam, the biggest freshwater dam in South Africa, fill up the car with petrol, or simply buy some necessities from the supermarket at Gariep.

"Horrible place with all night trucks driving in N1 highway 200-300m from accommodation. Poor security for a farm, especially in this day and age and so close to the highway."

The photos and information of the place are very misleading. The place is right off the N1 with no security fencing around the farm, just a plain old fashioned farm gate. Didn't feel safe at all, not clean, plates weren't even clean and we had to wash them again. No tongs at all. We tried to call to find alternative accommodation but because it was already late in the afternoon we couldn't find one and if it wasn't for the curfew and the fact that we were so tired we would surely have driven back to PTA. The bedding is already old and battered. The bath and shower faucets do not work well, the table on the porch and chairs are very old and full of bird droppings. The ceiling fan doesn't even have a light shield around it and isn't a ceiling fan because it doesn't work! The carpets are full of dust and the place is hot and stuffy because you don't dare to open the windows during the night, firstly because you don't feel safe and secondly because the trucks that pass close to the place make so much noise. I certainly wouldn't even recommend the place to anyone. The cleaner had the audacity to put a box there with "TIP R50. 00" written on it - can you do more for such a dirty place! We first had to pay the remaining 50% before the Lindi lady took us to the unit and I can well understand why. I wouldn't have paid that if I first saw the place. The photo looks like farm accommodation and it refers to farm dam. The farm pond is located at the main house and not at the two chalets - and I definitely won't be swimming in it no matter how hot I get!
