Perfect if you are looking for something "far out" - loved it

Location was exactly what we expected... far away from the rush! Comfortable holiday home. Abraham, the farm manager, did go out of his way to welcome us, show us around and also took us for a game safari (highly recommended). Would stay there any time again.

Just what we were looking for as an overnight stop in the quiet of the genuine Kalahari

Stoep with the new plunge pool, swept braai area, firewood set up on arrival. Warmly greeted by the staff. Clean cottage, lovely setting in the Kalahari veldt.

The general facilities, splash pool, backup power (power was down in the area for a good couple of days and we still had power) was great. We were offered storage space for a large 4m trailer and a work surface which we are very grateful for.

Magical, Memorable, Soul Touching and Beautiful!

Every now and then in the middle of nowhere you find yourself, a magical place where your soul find solace and wonders freely, reconnecting with nature and the true purpose of your existence. A place where time comes to a standstill for a moment, allowing you to reflect and wonder, a place far far away from the everyday mundane madness we call life. Kalahari Cottage is that magical place! I'll highly recommend a stay at this little oasis in the middle of nowhere!

We had a wonderful family breakaway and rest here.

One of the workers met us at the gate to open and hand over the keys for us. Wonderful quiet environment, evenings are quiet and dark, wonderful for watching stars. Can go for walks on the property.

What a beautiful spot in the Kalahari. The communication was perfect, the house equiped with everything you need and spotless clean. Unfortunately I was on my own, next time I hope my family will be with me, and we can stay a bit länger.
