Well maintained gem, close to the N1, ideal overnight stay.
We had a great time! It's an absolute gem of a place, very neat and carefully prepared with attention to detail. We were welcomed with a delicious fire that burned high. Very easily accessible from the N1, which makes it a good option if you want to spend the night on the way.

Very quiet and comfortable.
This is the 2nd time we have stayed at Jakhalsfontein Guest Farm. The location is very conveniently close to the N1, but far enough that you don't hear the traffic. The accommodation is very neat and comfortable. The only suggestion would be to provide a microwave oven and install a sink in the kitchen, then the place would be perfect. The stars are breathtaking on this farm.

Friendly, peaceful, breathtakingly beautiful accommodation option.
It was my son's 20th birthday, and we wanted to spend the night somewhere special. Kirsten, our hostess, let us know two days before our arrival that she also offers dinners. It was so convenient and we were able to celebrate a wonderful birthday!

Neat, peaceful, safe overnight accommodation close to the N1.
No criticism. The rondavel is very, very neat. Everything is there that one needs for an overnight stay - or even longer. It is conveniently close to the N1, but without the noise. There is a lovely farm pond to cool off in, but unfortunately we were there too late in the evening to enjoy it. Kirsten is the perfect hostess. She waited until late for us to arrive and we were then treated to a delicious meal and even dessert and fruit juice. Don't miss the opportunity to take advantage of this dining option. Secure configuration. We really enjoyed the short time at Jakhalsfontein Guest Farm.

Top notch farm stay!
Kirsten is a fantastic hostess. Unfortunately, we only stayed 1 night and did not know in advance about the delicious, and very reasonable, dinner that she can prepare. Next time we will definitely use that option instead. Feel free to inquire about it when you book. The farm itself is very peaceful with a rich animal and bird life.
