140 guests' feedbackVery nice stay. Perfect for an overnight stay between Johannesburg and Cape Town or for a few days of peace of mind.
Yes. Very nice. Room was clean and tidy. Breakfast was nice and the host was very helpful. It's about 8 km from the main road, so you don't hear the noise of the traffic. We will definitely stay there again.
Comfortable, relaxed home atmosphere; huge fireplace, excellent food (best lamb stew I've had in years) and most accommodating hosts. Couldn't ask for more.
Friendly, good food, peaceful and the list goes on.
The best place to stay between Gauteng and the Cape. Would not stay anywhere else again if given a choice.
It was just what we needed to break our journey to Cape Town.
Lovely facility with incredibly friendly and helpful staff. Ideal location for a rest stop during a long trip on the N1. It's a little home away from home, and the food is amazing!
The wonderful clean air and nature paired with hospitality was nice.
Peaceful farm atmosphere. Nice dinner.
The room was beautifully appointed and the farm itself is tranquil and well positioned for an overnight stop. One improvement I would suggest is to have a small fridge in the room. Travellers will often have water or other refreshments that they want for their trip and being able to refrigerate these at night is useful.
As always, our stay was lovely.
Beautiful rooms! Food is amazing!
The view of the venue was stunning and I love everything. The rooms are clean and spacious. The owners and staff are so friendly.
This is a come-again place, peaceful, cosy, friendly management, just a lovely overnight destination. Lovely beds and amenities.
Incredibly good time.
Delicious, delicious, delicious. The food was unbeatable!
Fantastic place, fantastic people, resting place for the soul. Excursions out and out worth it. The meals, Karoo at its best!
See stars.
Thoroughly enjoyed our two nights' stay. Beautiful setting, excellent service and such welcoming staff. Ideal for our halfway stop on the way from KZN to Cape Town.
New Holme immediately felt like home. The host received us warmly and we enjoyed wonderful company with him and the staff. They specially upgraded us to the beautiful log house, so we could work comfortably, with good WiFi. The dinner and breakfast were of excellent quality. The beautiful lodge has so much to offer and we would highly recommend it!
The facilities were clean, tidy, quiet and comfortable. The host was friendly and helpful upon arrival. I did not take any meals there and left very early again the next morning.
Amazing friendly people going out of their way to make you feel comfortable and at ease. Five-star service.
I enjoyed the sleepover. The room was spacious and the foot bath was an experience. The silence in the morning with only birds chirping was so peaceful. The dinner and breakfast were five star.
Annemi makes you feel like family. We were hospitably received and had a wonderful stay. The rooms are beautiful, neat and very clean. The meals were delicious. We will definitely stay here again.
A Karoo farm like few with an interesting history. Hospitality was top notch, dinner excellent and accommodation very good. We will surely come again.
Excellent service and top notch meals.
The friendliest welcome. Very helpful. Annemi and Wian made us feel so at home. Most delicious dinner. Definitely worth it. We can't wait to go again.
Buffet dinner is a must! The friendly help of PC and Mariska is top class! The rooms are also very nicely equipped!
We will definitely stay again.
We had a great time eating and hanging out, would love to go back again anytime! Awesome family team that works there, thank you!
We were kindly welcomed and told we could enjoy dinner as well. Three course, excellent meal and their wine cellar is very impressive. The rooms and bathrooms are also beautifully decorated. We will definitely visit there again.
I'm very happy with service in this place.
Food is amazing. Hosts are very welcoming and friendly.
Everything was very neat and clean, and we were received very kindly. The bathroom is also very comfortable and large! Please take just note that there was no fridge in our room, which I would highly recommend though! Dinner was off the books delicious!
Ona had a wonderful stay. It's so beautiful there.
Very friendly owners and staff, was treated brilliantly.
We slept in the log house and the atmosphere and layout impressed us. The food (dinner and breakfast - extra) was exceptionally tasty with "attention to detail". Great experience!
Farm style meal was excellent.
Every time we stay at New Holme it is simply excellent. The food, service, location and professionalism are equal to five stars.
A bit expensive for one person to sleep in the Stables.
A few matters need attention. Payments I had to confirm later. No candles or matches despite load shedding. WiFi not working, even outside of load shedding.
PC and Mariske were wonderful, relaxed hosts and the farm is beautiful. The evening meal provided by Mariske was absolutely exceptional.
Everyone very friendly. Meals are fantastic. Great farm atmosphere.
It was very nice. Thank you very much.
What is happening at New Holme Nature Lodge in partnership with retired academics sets an example for each and every one of us, how we can turn our beautiful country around for the better from the grassroots level. Edu-tourism, eco-tourism and many more examples of what can be done are a credit to the owners.
Warm and very friendly people. Excellent food and service. Great country experience.
We stayed two nights at New Holme in December 2022 on our way back to Midrand from Kagga Kamma. Beautiful peaceful surroundings. Delicious meals and good service. Highly recommended for overstay or even a few days packing.
I can't really comment. We got there late and left early again. The stay was pleasant and very peaceful. The hostess received us late and was very helpful and friendly.
The food was wonderful, and the hosts were welcoming, however, the bathroom in the main bedroom had a perpetual poo smell. Whatever we did, we could not get rid of the smell. I would recommend placing an extraction fan in that bathroom.
Great dinner. Room in very good condition. The kids loved the sheep and horses. Good stop after a long drive from Cape Town.
Beautiful and peaceful will definitely return again.
We stayed in the self catering log cabin. It's good as an option for overnight stay but I wouldn't stay longer than 1 night. We had bats in our roof and could hear them all night, probably hard to keep them out. Also a very strong smell in the one kitchen cupboard that stores the glasses. So didn't use the glassware. The air con in the lounge didn't work but they did work in the bedrooms which was a great relief. However I would actually go back there and still recommend as it's a great location, beautiful scenery, lovely pool and access to the restaurant and bar.
Driving into New Holme was like driving into an oasis of calm and beauty. The welcome was warm and friendly. Thank you for a great mid-way break on our long trip.
Highly recommendable. Rooms even more beautiful than in photos. Beautiful gardens.
We can definitely recommend this accommodation. Large variety of birds and nightlife to see. We will definitely stay there again.
What a wonderful place. Should have spent a full day relaxing there. Wonderful hosts and splendid dinner. We also went on a night game drive to see some of the local wildlife. Very fascinating and enjoyable.
Beautiful, spacious and tastefully furnished rooms. Booked dinner and food was fantastic. New Holme is part of the Karoo Gariep Private Conservancy and offers so much more than just an overnight destination. For nature lovers and people who just want to get away and seek tranquility, this is definitely worth a longer visit.
The first night we ate in the lodge - the food was absolutely 5 star and delicious. The second night on the way home it was a braai on the hill, very basic but food and view was "great".
Friendly establishment Supper was amazing!
We and the children really enjoyed the Karoo hospitality. The food was unbeatable. Personal attention from the owners who have their fingers on the wrists.
Very friendly owners and staff. The views are endless with beautiful sunsets and night skies full of stars. Excellent dinner and great breakfast. Large comfortable, clean rooms with quality beds. Night drives and early morning birding drives: A must for nature lovers and birders. We will be back, for at least 2 nights. 5 star stay.
Our hosts did a wonderful job of personal attention and overall a warm and welcoming stay.
Exceptional dinner and very nice breakfast. Real country hospitality.
I got a message to say they needed to change our room. They gave us the most sensational dinner on the house which was so thoughtful. Will definitely stay again!
The rooms were neat, staff so friendly, we didn't enjoy dinner, but breakfast which was incredibly delicious. Will definitely stay there again.
The rooms are beautiful, spacious and comfortable and the bathroom was private and everything worked well. I wish we had more time to explore the place, do some wildlife viewing or go hiking. We will have to stay an extra day next time.
We only slept one night. The food was delicious - real farm food as well as a very fine starter. It's a case of the food is delicious and the buffet has a great variety - too much to taste everything. There was some problem with employees, as it seems the family themselves had to step in to help everyone. However, the service was still good. We had a great bird watching trip with PC - with quite a few "lifers". We would love to go back for the other special birds we missed last time.
Excellent food and a beautiful Karooplaas environment make everyone feel at home. Our family will not stay in another place again.
We would love to come again.
Mariska and the team at New Holme's hospitality, kindness and willingness to help was amazing! My children were very much at home and enjoyed it very much!
Really a hippo. But he is alone. Wish his new females could join him.
The rooms are tired and need re-modelling. One of our rooms also smelt like cat pee. The owners were very busy preparing the food for the evening (which was delicious) and although willing to assist with anything we wanted they had to be sought out on the premises which was a bit awkward.
Definitely going to stop there again.
Had lovely farm style dinner and breakfast and a fantastic early morning Karoo birding tour with PC.
Friendly service and brilliant meals combined with a quiet and peaceful place to sleep. It made us feel at home from the moment we arrived.
The people are friendly and the food is indescribably delicious! Jewel in the Karoo!
Room is clean and tidy. Most delicious dinner. People are hospitable.
Had a great time relaxing and enjoying the starry sky. Some elements could do with a little maintenance, but can recommend for overnight stays.
Friendly, hospitable owners, beautiful rooms and delicious food! We will stay here again.
The minute we arrived, you just felt so relaxed. Everyone was so friendly and easy. Easily one of the best places I've stayed. Wish we could've stayed longer.
Would definitely recommend them and stay there again. Food was also excellent what we got.
The owners treat everyone like family, it's an amazing place and makes you feel warm and welcome. Diamond of a place!
Nice half way rest place. Children really enjoyed it.
We made a late booking, but the guest house kept contact with us to see how we are progressing and when they can expect us. It rained early in the morning! What an experience amidst the severe drought .
It was truly a very pleasant surprise to stay at such a beautiful place! Genuine Karoo hospitality! The place will see me again for sure.
Location is fantastic. Safe place for children to swim and play. Children enjoyed feeding the animals and playing with all the children there! Rooms clean. Food great.
A green oasis in the Karoo with lovely accommodation and friendly and interesting host and wife. The presentation of the meals, not included in price, is masterchef quality. And for the birders there are quite a few specials to see.
We were very kindly received by PC and Bianca. The food was delicious and the company just as good.
We enjoyed our evening there. The children loved the animals on the farm. The food was fantastic and so much to choose from. It's our 2nd time there and we will definitely go again. Most beautiful stars in the evening.
If you are looking for genuine South African hospitality, this is just the right place. Upon arrival you feel right at home and the visit only got better with each passing hour. From a manatee tour to the three course meal served you really couldn't ask for better. The owners go out of their way to make your stay as comfortable as possible. You will see us again soon.
Great food. Fantastic location. The children fed calves by bottle - a true farm experience. Our hosts were very attentive and accommodating. Well worth a visit!
We had a really wonderful time. It was far more interesting than we expected - the family are involved in bringing hippos back to the area after they disappeared more than 200 years ago and it was fascinating to hear the story.
They were incredibly hospitable, the food was heavenly and it was a delicious refreshment after the long road! Recommend this! Stay for more than 1 evening and enjoy the farm.
Better service that this is hard to find. PC was always there to assist and it was an evening we would never forget. Just ensure you are hungry, because the food is just the best!
Felt immediately at home after PC and wife's welcome. Houthuis is truly beautiful and places a true oasis in the Karoo.
Lovely working farm, comfortable accommodation (log house). However, there was no dish soap or cloths and dishcloths available. Few stains on bedding. Enjoyed it a lot though and have great appreciation for the owners and their whole approach with the reserve and breeding program.
After the long drive we were able to relax wonderfully in the peaceful garden. Nice walk and was able to get close to the moose and other wildlife just by walking around the accommodation. I would like to give a thumbs up to the cook! The food was particularly exquisite, beautifully presented and extremely tasty.
It was a great refreshment after the long road. Thank you for the delicious food.
Amazing accommodation. People were very friendly and the meals were 5 star quality.
What a wonderful place to stop and catch your breath. Friendly reception, clean facilities and delicious food!
Natural splendor and leafy green garden in the arid Karoo with neat stylish accommodation and host and hostess who make you feel welcome and make your stay one you will remember.
Very hospitable people with nice dinner.
We stayed here for the first time 9 years ago and it was a nice experience again. A true Karoo guesthouse. It is very quiet at night and the sky is full of stars. PC (owner) received us and Mariska was the chef. The food is very good and the dining hall is typical Karoo-style. Hanover is in the middle between Gauteng and Cape Town and it is ideally situated for an overnight stop. PC takes his guests to look at the hippos and birds or on a game drive.
We slept in Stoffel Rus, the log house was comfortable with everything you need. We were received with hospitality, and immediately felt at home. It was something else to be able to see the moose on the farm up close, it created a peaceful atmosphere. The accommodation would have been more ideal if the wooden house had its own braai facilities.
The directions just need to be better indicated. We ended up on the wrong GPS coordinates in Hanover, which caused time to be lost. The rest all very nice.
Was unsure at first if the turning was the right one, but luckily after 1 km there was another sign showing New Holm 7 km. I was welcomed with open arms and since then the time just flew by too fast. Couldn't find the manatees but the bird life by the river made up for it. Annemie, you are truly a master cook! Hope to have the privilege again one day after it rains, to be able to go home there. Prosperity
Stopover on way to Garden Route. Really enjoyed the food, accommodation was more than adequate, will recommend to friends.
Karoo Gariep Conservancy was one of the highlights of our trip to Cape Town. The food was excellent, the hosts incredibly accommodating and our kids loved the experience of living on a farm. It felt like home. The gardens are spectacular!
Great hospitality with great accommodation and amazing meals.
Our stay at Karoo Gariep was perfect. We were kindly received by PC and Marisca. Accommodation was clean and very tidy and wonderfully cool in the heat. The dinner was top notch - delicious farm food. Will definitely stay at Karoo Gariep again!
Thank you PC and Mariska for the opportunity to share your little piece of heaven on earth Thanks for the milktart and for sharing your wonderful story with us. God bless!
We had a great stay!
Apart from the one air conditioner that didn't work, it was a very pleasant place to spend the night. Food was top notch. One felt safe. Would recommend Karoo Gariep Conservancy anytime.
The friendly and warm welcome by PC and his family will soon make you relax and forget about the long road or any worries that are troubling you. It is truly an oasis for the weary traveller. The food is delicious and mouth-watering. We look forward to visiting again soon.
The farm is an oasis after the hot journey. The reception is friendly and welcoming. The yard, garden and trees are a refreshment for the soul. The rooms were spacious, convenient and tastefully furnished. The dinner is top notch. We would definitely like to stay there again. Though not necessary, we would have liked to have KykNet.
We really enjoyed our night in the Karoo Gariep Conservancy. The hippos were unfortunately a bit shy and only peeked at us a few times. The buffet barbecue with starter, main course and dessert was delicious and we pretty much feasted. Then there was the beautiful sunset that one could enjoy from the observation deck and the swimming pool to cool off in. The place really has character with a very friendly hostess and host. The stars in the Karoo dark night are so bright and feel so close it feels like you could pick a star. We also saw shooting stars. The Milky Way was the most beautiful beautiful. For breakfast a quick coffee and rusks together with tame guinea fowl tongues, petting a lamb and seeing a calf jump from sheer joy of life in the early morning freshness of the Karoo. It was really an experience that I will remember for a long time. The only downside is the dirt road you have to drive to get there, but in my opinion it is well worth it.
Lovely, convenient rooms with beautiful furniture, a nice swimming pool and fantastic dinner in the middle of nowhere. The deck to look at the stars is amazing. The directions to the place can be clearer - the turn off is on the left, 25 km on the N1 from Hanover to Colesberg. Then you still drive 8 km on a gravel road to get to the farm.
Delicious traditional dinner and pleasant service. Good neat rooms.
See the stars.
Nice and cool room, big and spacious for the 5 of us. The service fantastic and would definitely recommend. Mariska and PC were fantastic, welcomed us very warmly and did everything they could to make our stay better.
It was so lovely to be received so hospitably after a long day on the road. We were in the log house (self-catering unit). Everything you need was there. Dinner in the restaurant was fine, but the friendly reception gets the first prize!
A wonderful overnight stop with only silence and beautiful scenery. The dinner and breakfast are delicious Karoo food. Nice winter sheets with an electric blanket on a good mattress for the cold Karoo nights. We relaxed wonderfully and slept very well. Very impressed with the environmental conservation project on the farm.
See the stars below.
We had a very nice stay and ate. All that was bad was that we had to drive again the next morning.
We had a wonderful overnight stay with them. Our children especially loved the hanslam and the dogs that run around there. You really switch off and it takes you back in time to when I was a kid. I would really recommend staying the night there. We will definitely be back!
It was a great overnight experience! So sorry we only stayed one night. The owners are very hospitable, friendly, put you at ease. The meals were wonderful, especially the traditional barbecue in the field on New Year's Eve. Will definitely make a stop again!
We just had trouble understanding the map and weren't sure which guest house we should drive to.
The children really enjoyed the overnight stay. Nicely swam, ate and slept. Very friendly reception and a nice peaceful atmosphere. Really recommended if you are heading to the Cape from Johannesburg/Pretoria or the North and want to rest a bit. I also think it could be very nice for longer holidays, especially if the young children like to play outside on a farm.
I travel all over the country in order to deliver vehicles for my wife. This is the BEST place that I have had the pleasure to stay at.
See the stars below.
Best food and friendly people!
Good value for money and a great introduction to the Karoo.
I welcomed the tranquility and the beauty of nature. The welcome of the guests is of top quality. Thank you for a nice place to rest a tired body.
The people were very hospitable, and the accommodation clean and tidy. We just felt the dinner was not worth the money. When we got up the next morning, we had no water either.
I only spent 1 night here. It was very comfortable and tidy. The service is friendly and the food was very tasty and worth it.
See the stars below.
What a lovely place!

I have never eaten such a delicious meal (dinner). Will definitely go back
