“Comfy stay in a stunning location”
Stunning location with wide views over Swartberg Mountains. We booked a family room which was a comfortable room with a wide open deck. Perfect for stargazing the Karoo skies. Its not self catering but the owners are very accommodating if you want to use the outside braai in the communal space. It’s very close to lots of attractions in and around Oudtshoorn.

If you’re looking for a quiet getaway with beautiful surroundings, this place is a gem. The views are absolutely stunning and create such a relaxing atmosphere. The room was comfortable and well-kept, making it easy to unwind and enjoy the stay. The food was delicious and clearly prepared with care, and the host added so much personality to the experience — friendly, welcoming, and genuinely fun to chat with. Overall, a lovely stay that combines peace, great scenery, good food, and warm hospitality. Highly recommended!

“Relax comfy within nature under the stars with an awesome home cooked meal 🥰”
Where should I start 🤩 from feeling very welcomed from the first second we arrived, to stunning szenery and wonderful hikes within the parameter of the ranch, to tasty breakfast and awesome dinner creations as well, to a room with A VIEW and an aircon 😂 (which we loved tbh), to visits at the nearby ostrich farm and the awesome Buffelsdrift, to just having fun with the playground and the pool and the 1 1/2 yrs old child that we had in our group with us to the cute animals (eg the big turtle) they have - WE LOVED IT ALL!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED PLACE TO STAY 🥰

“The peaceful atmosphere in the camp tops the experience, especially at night.”
The atmosphere in the camp is fantastic, very similar to the atmosphere in a rest camp in a nature reserve. The hiking, braai and swimming amenities are top class and very enjoyable.
