Wonderful stay among the flowers with an engaging hostess.
Our second year in Blommehuisie (this time for five days). Simple, but well-equipped cottage, even if there is no mobile phone reception (read - social media detox!). The duvet and the bed are lovely - the colder evenings can come again. The braai area is placed so that it does not catch the winds, but still with lovely views. So many types of flowers! And then the engaging conversations and stories of our hostess. We really had a great time.

Die Blommehuisie se advertensie sê dit reguit - moenie fancy goed verwag nie. Dit is so reg in ons kraal. We loved it!

Die Blommehuisie's advertisement says it straight - don't expect fancy things. It's right in our corner. We loved it!
The idea of your own little cottage - upgraded "shepherd's cottage" among the flowers - is something many people can only dream of. Here you have something that meets that and much more. Add to that the personal input of the owner and it's a very special experience! Wow, that was truly delicious - so on our own.

Incredibly cute furnished for a comfortable visit.
The house was tasteful and well appointed. I cannot comment for any improvements. The advantage is that you can drive around everywhere on their farm and enjoy the surroundings. Very good environment for flower viewing and access to the park is also convenient. If you like silence, natural beauty and a clear starry sky, this is the place for you. I will go back for sure. It was very special.

Although very small, the Blommehuisie offers delightful accommodation, one room with a double bed, table and chairs, kitchen facilities and braai area (fireplace). Shower and toilet separate. Reception was very friendly and Blommehuisie was clean and good quality towels provided. Freedom to walk in the veld or to drive around the farm is an added bonus. Enjoy nature at its best. You will receive your permit for Gifberg Nature Reserve and braai wood upon arrival. Can recommend Grootvleij for those who are not looking for frills.

To be able to stay in Blommehuisie for a week was a wonderful experience. What wonderful memories from my younger day son my grandfather's farm was brought to the fore. The hospitality and helpfulness from Esmi and Philip made it so much more special. Thank your for everything! Especially jump starting our vehicle on the last day when it decided it wasn't leaving Namaqualand!

Stayed there for three nights and visited surrounding destinations. Flower time largely over, but still beautiful places seen.
Wonderful, unique experience. Friendly and helpful hostess. Wonderfully quiet and peaceful with a beautiful view. No electricity is actually a plus because it fits into the whole experience and the gas facilities are completely adequate and convenient. Definitely a place to go back to.

We were warmly welcomed by Esmi on their beautiful farm. In the distance we could see the white house standing high up in the hill. Picturesque with just the birds and the fields we looked down on. Everywhere on the farm the wildflowers were blooming. The house was very clean and tidy with all the necessary facilities. We would like to drag Blommehuisie and the cup back home.

Despite the cold, we had a nice warm shower and slept. Thanks for the gas heater.
The place is beautiful and you can feel the love. We are just looking for more storage space or shelves for the dishes and food. The chimney of the fireplace just needs to draw a little longer for more, because smoke tends to move into the house.

Longing for a time that has passed.
In the beautiful, most beautiful house, it is wonderful to be woken up by the goats in the morning. The walks through the fields and sheep camps were special, and we took the most beautiful pictures. The crackling fire in the fireplace at night, the friendly owners, and the peaceful, safe environment made the time really pleasant. In short: we can really recommend Melkboomhoek Blommehuisie.
