“Very cozy and comfortable stay. Perfect for couples. Perfect for Winter season.”
Stunning decor. Quality products. Very cozy with indoor fireplace (which was already started when we got there) A lot of subtle extra touches that made us feel very at home (coffee pods, milk & water in fridge, juice, fruits)

“Amazing place to stay to get a feel of Barrydale”
Amazing space that has been beautiful curated. Great location to start your exploring along the main road. Great for an overnight stop or to see the town for a couple of nights like we did.

“We were on adventure motorcycles and it provided a fantastic base for us to explore the surrounding”
The room was well appointed and very comfortable. The accommodation offered excellent value for money, and the 1 meal that we had in the restaurant was very good.

Quirky old farm cottage with all the mod cons, a comfortable bed and a nice fireplace. Karoo Moon courtesy of a distant streetlight outside the un curtained bedroom window. Not your usual B&B.

“Absolutely LOVED our stay at the Karoo Moon Motel. Thank you, Dean!”
We loved the quirkiness of the unit! It was so spacious and very comfortable -one of the most comfortable beds I’ve ever slept in! Everything is top quality … from the linen to the towels, to the furnishings … We had absolutely everything we needed. And it was SPOTLESSLY clean! Having the restaurant next door is lovely too … we had a delicious breakfast in the morning. I wish we’d spent a few more nights there … we’ll definitely be back!
