Well appointed with very spacious rooms. Immediately felt very at home.
Nicolene really spoiled us with the most delicious breakfast every morning. It was a real getaway with a great rest. Each room had its own bathroom, actually a bath hall. Would definitely recommend the place.

Peaceful family outing.
Place is ideal for families with young children. You don't need to take anything with you, the lapa is fully equipped. Children could play and run around safely and we could watch them from the lapa. Saw many goats from the lapa. Dirt road is not suitable for a very low vehicle. Restaurant on site was great. Good value for money. Children really enjoyed the bunnies, chickens and peacocks at the playground.

A porch with a view.
We had a nice stay at the Klipkothuis. Everything one needs, right down to matches and fire lighters. Beautiful view of the mountains. Also close to the road if you want or need to drive somewhere.

It was a lekker trip and a good places to stay but you must have a 4x4.

Good morning, you don't need a 4x4 to come and have breakfast at "Local is Lekker" only for a self-drive Game drive......

Absolute, fantastic place to live, place to stay and peaceful nature.
It had been a wonderful stay for us, just a shame it was so short. Ben was very helpful and friendly and was always there for us. Thanks Ben. The Farmyard cottage we lived in had everything we needed. I couldn't believe it when I saw that the wild goats were just grazing between the tents. Wonderful. In the evening you could hear nothing but the silence and the evening sounds. It is a pity that there is no mention on the website that there is a swimming pool. We didn't pack any swimwear. Would also have been a problem if we had booked the tents because the road down to the camping place is terribly bad and will definitely need to be upgraded. We will definitely come again and book the tents this time.

Tranquil and beautiful natural environment that will leave you rested and energised when you leave.
I was surprised how much I missed technology on the first night, but after a lovely night's rest this feeling was completely forgotten. Breakfast is served on the patio with the whole valley, koppie and mountains surrounding you. You can feel the stress leaving your feet like water. Next time I will be sure to pack binoculars. The peacock and striped field mouse came to say good morning. Common and silver guineafowl and a host of different bird sounds greets you in the morning. Braai facilities and game viewing opportunities are available. We took the sunset game ride and it was wonderful. The owner, Wernich, is very friendly and has great plans for the farm. The stars was a feast without any light pollution, except for a fire burning in the distance. It looked like diamonds on black satin. The unit is well equipped with everything you might need. There are beautiful tents for those who enjoy "glamping". My next choice I think. I believe children and their parents will also enjoy it as they offer a nice balance of being close to nature and a comfortable place to stay. All in all, we will definitely be back and we have already recommended them to some friends.
