9 guests' feedbackWe had a great time in the Karoo. The accommodation was comfortable and the farm was beautiful. Highly recommended if you are looking to get away from it all and relax.
Amazing place! An absolute must for anyone who loves nature and isolation. Good beds, nice hot tub and wonderful host and hostess!
Beautiful place. Very friendly people.
Our family was looking for a peaceful evening in the Karoo and this is exactly what it was. Julia was very hospitable. The house was very neat and furnished with everything needed. Will definitely suggest it. We couldn't get to the Mountain House with our car, but the ordinary Karoo house was just as beautiful.
Very cute. Enjoyed a lot.
It was awfully nice. Nice getaway spot. With a beautiful view!
Very nice view of the Karoo. Very still.
The house was fantastic, and the hot tub was a great experience, I will make a plan to go again. You will need high car clearance to get there, but is all part of the journey. The hosts were great!
Pure Karoo magic at this venue.
