"Nieu-Bethesda is an interesting place, especially the visit to the Owl House and a few years we went with a guide down to the river to see the fossils. We only had time to visit the owl house this time. I must say the dinner we had at Furrows Lodge was really great."
"Geniet die ou geboue, neem baie foto's en beleef Karoo-weelde uit 'n vorige eeu. Die kerkgebou is pragtig en vir 'n verkenner is daar baie om te sien, fluisterstemme van die verlede om te luister en ongelooflike draai in tyd in baie Karoo-vrede. Vars lug en verkwikte wakkerword-ervaring om die langpad verder aan te durf!"
"Quite a few historical buildings, a beautiful church with stained glass windows, and a bell tower that chimes every half hour."
"Ons was net laatmiddag en die aand in Hanover en dit op 'n Sondag! Dus was meeste eetplekke toe wat ons keuse beperk het, want ons het beplan om aandete daar iewers te gaan geniet."
"'n Pragtige, rustige dorpie, veel te doen, 5 dae is te min, baie geskiedenis, doen ook 'n besoek aan die kerkhof, dis baie intersessant."
"Richmond is 'n klein Karoodorp met 'n paar dinge wat dit laat uitstaan bo ander dorpies in die omgewing. Bv. die Moderne kunsmuseum, Richmond Cafe en Rooms, Vetmuis ens. Ons het 'n heerlike fietspad gevind in die pragtige Karoolandskap. As jy hou van 'n klein dorp met 'n bietjie lewe, is dit ideaal."
"Sadly the town is looking very tired and neglected and is in need of much attention from the inhabitants as it seems the district municipality is either disinterested in it or incompetent, probably both."
"My only real complaint was that I was not informed that the tar road leading off the N9 to Nieu Bethesda, was closed. This meant travelling up the N9 a further 20 km and then driving on a not-so-good dirt road a further 35 km. Apparently, the tar road should be re-opened by the end of May 2023."
"Richmond is 'n lekker oorblyplek en sal aanklank vind by mense wat stilte soek in die Karoo."
"A most interesting village with so much heritage to explore that will lead to repeat visits."
"Mooi en skoon, maar kleintjies wat op jou toesak en bedel maak dit baie onaangenaam."
"I would love to come back and do some exploring. Is such a beautiful part of our country."
"We would love to explore the area on another occasion and visit the Apollo Theatre. It would be great if Ceres Rail, the Apollo theatre, and the various guest houses and the hotel could organise a train trip from Cape Town to Victoria West to see a show."
