From friendly arrival, beautiful accommodation and even a child-friendly farm atmosphere, it cannot be described well. Also remember to place your order for their most delicious chicken satays for your barbecue. In addition, we were spoiled with a delicious freshly baked bread.

Road food for your soul.
Here you can listen to the chirping of the birds and the call of the turtle doves. See how the mother finch brings food to her babies and screams at the opening of the nest. How the rooster attacks the kitten for venturing into their territory. The soft cry of the angora goats and at shearing time their anxious cry as they look at you sheepishly. The monotonous turning of the windmill in the breeze, little clouds gathering together and you hope and pray together for rain. And at sunrise you welcome the new day with a mug of steaming nut coffee and home-baked biscuits. The little school is everything and more than you desire. Silver clean, neat and very tasteful. A wish-I-could-stay-here-forever cottage.

The little school from 100 years ago has been carefully and characterfully transformed into a lovely place to sleep. Just when you think you've seen all the creativity, you notice something else that amazes you. It was really an experience. From fresh roses in a pot next to the bed, the fireplace in the living room with more than enough firewood to the cozy made up beds. Everything speaks of a love and care for the strangers who make themselves at home there from time to time.

The farm is located a few kilometers off the N1 dirt road. Just far enough to make you feel like you're visiting a Karoo farm. A true Karoo farm experience with stars and silence that is sometimes interrupted by the sounds of farm life and farm animals, which then only accentuates the silence of the surroundings.

It was a wonderful getaway for us as a group of friends to stay at Die Skooltjie. The place is such a piece of heaven on earth, where you see the Karoo at its most beautiful! We were spoiled with the most beautiful sunrise and especially enjoyed the farm kitchen and the fire place while the geese in the cement pond swam right next to us. The only disappointment was that we had to say goodbye again so soon. Can't wait to go back again.

We experienced the School very pleasantly. The place is nice and clean and the facilities make it a really enjoyable Karoo stop. Nice braai area outside and also fireplace inside for the cold evenings. Reception was friendly and warm.

Perfect for a couple, conveniently close to the N1 on a working farm full of hospitality.
A place with a heart, nothing is neglected. We didn't expect so much character and detail. It was an excellent choice to stay there. Can highly recommend it.

Lovely getaway.
Die Skooltjie is a must to stay at. The site is very neat and the house is equipped with everything you might need, and more! Every detail is thought of. On arrival, the wood stove was already burning, which was a treat! I would definitely recommend Die Skooltjie to anyone, especially if you have children. The male calf kept us company while we were roasting outside, and there are several other farm animals right on your back porch. We will visit again!

One of our most enjoyable overnight destinations yet! Pure farm stay and hospitality from the upper shelves. It felt like home and Laetitea and Jos went out of their way to make the accommodation extra special, even if it was only for one night. Wish we could stay longer!

A piece of heaven on earth!
Wow, what a privilege to visit Jos and Laetitia at Die Skooltjie! This building of more than 100 is so well equipped and beautifully made. Lovely kitchen, softest bedding and towels that smell nice for days! The new iron stove works like a bomb and makes the cottage warm with its wooden pieces as big as Duplo cubes! Outside braai fireplace so nicely sheltered on the veranda against the cold Karoo wind, with the old pepper tree tightly against the wall of the old building. And what a pleasure it is that the 3 Musketeers come to say hello: Rosie, the cow, Klapper the sheep and Kallie the calf. A must to sleep over, at least 3 nights, heading north. Then drive around for 2 days in the Karoo Park as it is just 21 km away.

Bliss in the Karoo!
If you don't want to feel caged in a guest house with other people, then Die Skooltjie is for you. As soon as you leave the N2 and follow the winding path your farm experience begins. The Skooltjie cottage is about 100 m from the farmstead. Jos and Laetitia receive you warmly. The grass in front of the house is as green as in the picture, you just want to lie flat on your back and take it all in. The interior has a nice rustic feel and the decor is stylish. The back porch is a lovely place to visit that screams braai with the farm dam according to you. As the sun sets, the Karoo envelops you in her charm. The sky is full of the brightest stars and you enjoy the spectacle with the complimentary singing of the bugs. As the sun rises, the typical farm sounds of waking up are very reassuring. I would easily stay quietly at Die Skooltjie for a few days and not just overnight. So, pack your books and pens and paper and go enjoy a school experience like few others.

What a wonderful time we had. The children rode horses, played with a hanslammer, fed geese and had an incredible time. Jors was the perfect host. We barbecued under the stars, with the sounds of the Karoo around us. Everything had been perfect. We will definitely stay here again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were actually sorry that it was only for one night. The historic place is excellently furnished, neat, clean and everything and more you need. We were received very kindly and felt very special with all the extras that were available to us. The silence and beauty of the surroundings really impressed us. We actually can't wait to sleep over there again.

Absolutely fantastic, the silence was deafening, just what we wanted.
It was a wonderful experience to stay there, the skies were something to behold, and the silence was only interrupted by sheep, geese and chickens, which were a feast. We also had the opportunity to swim in a cement dam with the fish and geese. The accommodation is truly fully equipped for self-catering and relaxing. I will definitely stay there again if I drive in that direction and can definitely recommend the places to any person who loves nature and loves it. The reception was excellent and all our needs were taken care of. Hope to visit you again someday. Thank you again, you have absolutely a place in the Karoo. Good luck and all the best.

I recommend that anyone traveling to and from the Cape via Beaufort West should stay overnight at Die Skooltjie. It will enrich you as a person. I can't say more. Go and see for yourself. You will never regret. And I took the most beautiful pictures of my life there. And if you like a mutton chop, please buy a few from the landlady to grill there that evening.

Wonderful getaway to an indescribable bliss with friendly hosts.
A wonderful getaway for the tired soul with beautiful clean and neat amenities. The hostess and host are ready to have everything perfect for travellers arriving. Everything is clean and working perfectly, and the private braai facilities make for a wonderful relaxing event. Would love to go down there for a few days. However, one should be aware that the 5 km gravel road to the site can be a challenge for lower types of cars, but not completely inaccessible - just drive slowly and carefully.

A wonderful stay on the long road between the North and the Cape! Not just the fantastic facilities, but also a Karooplaas experience and top notch hospitality. The sheltered braai area and firepit call for long walks under the stars. We will definitely go back for a full winter break to better explore the area and especially the fossils. We recommend the Little School without any reservation!
