Karoo glamping!

Dit was nou lekker. Glamping in die middel van die Karoo. Dit is pikdonker en doodstil in die nag. Net wat ons nodig gehad het. Die tent het ons grootste verwagtinge oortref. Twee sjokolade kolwyntjies het op die tafel gestaan met ons aankoms en ons het geweet vir seker Erika kom haar besoekers eerste. En dan die bad! En die uitsig as jy bad! Uitstaande! Dankie, ons het heerlik gerus.

Karoo glamping!

Now that was fun. Glamping in the middle of the Karoo. It is pitch dark and dead silent at night. Just what we needed. The tent exceeded our highest expectations. Two chocolate cupcakes were on the table when we arrived and we knew for sure that Erika would get her visitors first. And then the bath! And the view when you bathe! Outstanding! Thank you, we had a wonderful rest.

Wonderlike tydjie op julle plaas spandeer. Jammer dit was so kort.

Baie gasvry ontvang. Was 'n voorreg om op die plaas in die goed toegeruste eenheid te kon oornag. Sien uit na die volgende keer.

We enjoyed Skilpad immensely!

Awesome place. Everything as advertised. Beautiful surroundings and great hikes. The only thing lacking is a braai/boma where one can sit around a real fire (there is a gas braai at the moment, but it's just not the same).

Brandrivier 's response

Thank you for the feedback, and we are glad that you enjoyed your stay with us. Lots of thought went into our decision to not allow open fires, hence the gasbraai facilities. In an area with lots of wind, open fires are a huge risk, and we will therefore not change it. Caring for the environment is a top priority for us. Have a great day!

Lieflik geleë en rustig.

Die hoogtepunt van die kuier by Brandrivier was die uitsig oor die koppie wanneer ek in my bed gelê het. Meerkat en Bakoor is lieflik geleë, rustig en privaat. Ons het die koppies uitgeklim en na die kokerbome gaan kyk. Dis 'n pragtige wêreld. Die tent is knus, netjies, goed toegerus en baie gerieflik. Ons sal beslis weer hier oorslaap.

A very pleasant experience.

During our seven days in Bakoor, we experienced all four seasons, including welcome rains, icy cold nights, hot days of full sunshine, and cool cloudy days of wind. Living under canvas in all these conditions, we were cosy, safe, and quite content. The hosts are wonderful. They are friendly, helpful, and will go out of their way to make your stay memorable. We will make every effort to come back again.

Peaceful, restful, beautiful.

We had an amazing stay and beautiful hikes. We stayed two nights and did not leave the property - it is beautiful - even with the flowers just starting. We ordered a meal which was very tasty. The tent is cosy even in winter and has everything needed. The outdoor shower is amazing for a starlit clean-up. The only downside to the location is that the sound of the road carries at night but it is well outweighed by the positives.

Hulle het 'n oulike aanlyn winkeltjie waar jy plaasprodukte kan bestel, en bied ook 'n kosaflewering - al hierdie dinge kan jy op hulle Facebook-blad sien. Die buitestort was ook 'n belewenis.

Baie mooi ligging. Rustig en pragtig. Vrede vir jou siel.

Blyplek was baie goed toegerus. Kan dalk net doen met 'n waaier vir die warm nagte. Veilig en het dit baie geniet.

'n Wonderlike tentverblyfervaring.

Nader aan die natuur sal jy nie kan wees nie en dit alles in 'n luukse tent. Namakwaland se natuur, selfs in die somer is iets besonders. 'n Fantastiese sterrehemel gedurende die nag. Alles wat benodig was, is beskikbaar vir selfsorg.

You won't be able to be closer to nature and all this in a luxury tent. Namaqualand's nature, even in summer, is something special. A fantastic starry sky during the night. Everything needed is available for self-catering.

Perfekte wegbreek.

Baie dankie, ons het ons verblyf baie geniet. Brandrivier se unieke akkommodasie was vir seker 'n hoogtepunt vir ons. Die eienaars, Erika en Pieter, is die vriendelikste en mees bedagsaamste mense, wat letterlik sal agteroor buig vir hul gaste. Die tent was ruim, skoon en gerieflik ingerig en alles wat jy benodig en nog meer is voorsien. Alhoewel daar nie WiFi is nie, is daar baie sterk selfoonontvangs en as jy regtig moet kommunikeer met die buitewêreld, is dit geen probleem nie. Ons sal Brandrivier vir seker aanbeveel vir diegene wat wil asem skep en "reset". Doen jouself 'n guns en los al die elektronika in jou motor, kom tot rus en geniet die unieke natuur.

Perfect getaway.

Thank you very much, we really enjoyed our stay. Brandrivier's unique accommodation was for sure a highlight for us. The owners, Erika and Pieter, are the friendliest and most considerate people, who will literally bend over backwards for their guests. The tent was spacious, clean and comfortably furnished and everything you need and more was provided. Although there is no WiFi, there is very strong cell phone reception and if you really need to communicate with the outside world, this is no problem. We would definitely recommend Brandrivier for those who want to take a breather and "reset". Do yourself a favor and leave all the electronics in your car, relax and enjoy the unique nature.

In baie opsigte uniek.

Ons het al by baie plekke gebly, maar Brandrivier is in baie opsigte uniek: daar is geen beurtkrag nie; die kwaliteit van bouwerk is merkwaardig; die dierelewe om die verblyf hou mens heeldag besig; die opsionele aandete en die idee van 'eet saam met die gasvrou maar in jou eie plek'. Daarby is dit pragtig geleë en word ruim voorsiening gemaak vir koue nagte.

Unique in many ways.

We have stayed at many places, but Brandrivier is unique in many ways: there is no load shedding; the quality of construction is remarkable; the animal life around the accommodation keeps you busy all day; the optional dinner and the idea of 'eating with the hostess but in your own place'. In addition, it is beautifully located and is generously provided for cold nights.

Ek en my man het saam met vriende die Namakwaland-blomtyd kom ervaar. Ek en my man het in die Meerkat-eenheid gebly en ons vriende in die Bakoor-eenheid. Ons het vir twee nagte gebly.

Ons almal was dit eens dat die tenteenhede besonder skoon en netjies was. Alles wat nodig was vir selfsorg was daar. Die eenhede se elektrisiteit word deur sonkrag opgewek, dus is daar nie mikrogolfoond nie en 'n toestel soos 'n haardroër kan nie gebruik word nie. Daar is 'n gasgeyser vir die stort. Die omgewing waar die tente geleë is aan die voet van die berge is pragtig. Ek het heerlik die koppie uitgeklim en die kokerbome teen die rantjie gaan besigtig. Ten tyde van ons besoek het daar 'n besonder sterk wind opgesteek wat vir 'n hele dag lank gewaai het, maar die tente het dit baie goed weerstaan en daarbinne was ons goed beskut! Pieter het kom verneem of ons die wind oorleef het en was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam met inligting oor die omgewing. Ons sal vir seker Brandrivier aanbeveel. Doen so voort Pieter en Erika!

My husband and I came to experience the Namaqualand flowering time with friends. My husband and I stayed in the Meerkat unit and our friends in the Bakoor unit. We stayed for two nights.

We all agreed that the tent units were exceptionally clean and tidy. Everything needed for self-catering was there. The units' electricity is generated by solar power, so there is no microwave oven and an appliance such as a hair dryer cannot be used. There is a gas geyser for the shower. The environment where the tents are located at the foot of the mountains is beautiful. I had a great time climbing the hill and went to see the quiver trees on the ridge. At the time of our visit there was a particularly strong wind that blew for a whole day, but the tents withstood it very well and we were well sheltered inside! Pieter came to find out if we had survived the wind and was very friendly and helpful with information about the area. We would definitely recommend Brandrivier. Keep up the good work Pieter and Erika!

Wie sou kon glo dat 'n tent so luuks kan wees? Die verblyf was 'n hoogtepunt van ons Namakwa vakansie!

Ons was nie seker wat om te verwag van die tentvakansie nie, gegewe dat 'n vorige tentwegbreek baie te kort geskiet het. Groot was ons verbasing met die standaard van hierdie eenheid in terme van intelligente uitleg en toerusting en uitsonderlike netheid! 'n Verdere plus was die ligging en uitsig vanaf die eenheid tussen die koppies. Kan dit met vrymoedigheid aanbeveel!

A further plus was the location and view from the unit between the hills. Can recommend it with confidence!

Baie koud.

Die tent is goed toegerus vir warm dae, maar ons het verkluim en daar is geen manier om die plek te verhit nie. Ook jy kan glad nie jou haardroër daar gebruik nie. Hoekom gaan my kop te bowe. Kan gerus ook kyk na die druppende krane. Die pad lawaai was ook baie erg deur die nag maar moeilik geslaap tussen die lawaai en koue deur.

Very cold.

The tent is well equipped for hot days, but we got cold and there is no way to heat the place. Also you can't use your hair dryer there at all. Why is beyond me. Feel free to also look at the dripping taps. The road noise was also very bad during the night but it was difficult to sleep between the noise and the cold door.

Beste Jackie,
Baie dankie vir jou terugvoer. Jammer dat julle koudgekry het. Miskien het julle die gasverwarmer misgekyk? Daar is ook spesiaal 'n addisionele 4 komberse saam met die gansdonsduvet, om seker te maak ons gaste kry nie koud nie.
Ons spesifiseer duidelik in ons advertensie op Travelground dat ons krag voorsien vir die laai van ligte toerusting alleenlik. Ek haal aan "The hosts provide facilities for charging electronic equipment, heaters in winter..." Sonkrag is gekoppel aan sekere uitsette alleenlik.
Drippende krane? Ons plaasopsigter is/was 24 uur per dag beskikbaar om enige probleem reg te stel. Vandaar die boodskap wat regop staan in 'n fotoraam op die tafel met al die kontakdetails indien julle enige iets sou kort of enige probleem sou ervaar.
Ons hoop die res van julle vakansie was darem lekker.

Brandrivier het ons in alle opsigte tevrede gestel en selfs ons verwagtinge oortref. Dit was heerlik om in hierdie ‘harde’ wêreld soveel mooi te kon beleef. Ons sal dit graag aanbeveel en sal self weer daar stop. Baie dankie dit was heerlik!

Netjies, salig, nodig.

Brandrivier was ons tweede slaapplek van ons toer. Nie net was dit uiters netjies nie, maar werklik pragtig. Indien jy in daardie rigting gaan, moenie verder soek nie.

'n Unieke geleentheid om op 'n ander manier uit te span en die natuur te beleef.

Ons was voorwaar verras deur die verblyf-konsep wat ons ingewag het op die plaas. Die eenhede was maklik toeganklik en het bo verwagting 'n heerlike atmosfeer geskep. Ons was spyt ons het net een aand daar oornag en kyk uit om 'n volgende keer langer daar te gaan vertoef. Baie dankie.

Uitstekend!

Die omgewing waarin die tenthuisies geleë is, is asemrowend mooi, al was ons bietjie vroeg vir die blomme. Die binnekant is eenvoudig, maar pragtig ingerig. Ons het ons verblyf daar ontsettend geniet, en sou maklik 'n week daar kon bly. Al negatief was die stort water wat jou om die beurt of verbrand of gevries het. Ek beveel die plekkie met vrymoedigheid aan en sal graag weer in die toekoms daar gaan oorbly.

Outstanding!

The environment in which the tents are located is breathtakingly beautiful, even if we were a little early for the flowers. The interior is simple, but beautifully decorated. We enjoyed our stay there immensely, and could have easily stayed there for a week. All negative was the shower of water that alternately either burned or froze you. I recommend the place with confidence and would love to stay there again in the future.

Ons het baie lekker gebly. Alles wat ons nodig gehad het was daar. Die kinders het die ooptes vreeslik geniet. Die buite stort was 'n absolute wenner! Al wat ek sou verander is om 'n regte braai te hê met hout en nie 'n gasbraai nie. Die gasbraai is nie so gesellig nie. Verder was alles perfek!

Ja, die gasbraai is 'n strategiese besluit omrede dit in 'n baie droë area is met baie wind, wat 'n groot brandgevaar skep vir ons eie plaas sowel as vir aangrensende plase.

Juweel wat ek eintlik vir myself wil hou.

Iets besonders. Aandag is gegee aan elke detail om dit so gerieflik moontlik te maak. Van 'n "welkom" bottle wyn, sonder die gasverwarmwer sou dit koud wees, mooi badkamer tot goed toegeruste kombuisie. Alles netjies, skoon en goed onderhou. En moenie die natuur en stilte vergeet nie. Prys is uiters billik vir wat jy kry. Kan dit baie sterk aanbeveel.

Waarde vir geld.

Hierdie is 'n baie ruim tent-kamer, wat glad nie warm is in die middel van die dag nie, aangesien daar 'n dak bo-oor is. Die nuwe 750 mm hoog yskassie het net 'n klein vrieshokkie, so wees net bewus daarvan. Een van die ander resensies verwys na die padgeraas van die N7. Jy kan die snelweg sien en die voertuie hoor, maar dit pla glad nie en dis meer 'n geval van veraf geraas. Tydens ons tweede aand was daar 'n probleem met die sonkragstelsel wat nie reggestel kon word nie. Ons is egter van batteryligte voorsien en het geen ongerief ervaar nie. Sal definitief weer hier bly.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Value for money.

This is a very spacious tent room, which is not hot at all in the middle of the day, as there is a roof over it. The new 750mm high bar fridge only has a small freezer compartment, so just be aware of that. One of the other reviews refers to the road noise of the N7. You can see the highway and hear the vehicles, but it doesn't bother you at all and it's more a case of distant noise. During our second night there was a problem with the solar system that could not be fixed. However, we were provided with battery lights and experienced no inconvenience. Will definitely stay here again.

Die geriewe is alles splinternuut en alles is netjies en skoon. Bakoor se tent het egter water gelek en sal herstel moet word. Die tente is slegs ongeveer 200 m vanaf die N7 en die vragmotors se lawaai snags bederf die rustigheid.

Wonderlike verblyf en so ontspannnend.

Ons het in Meerkat gebly, dit was baie netjies en skoon met ons aankoms. Die klein ekstras (heerlike wyn, koffie, suiker, skoonmaakmiddels, ens.) laat jou sommer gou welkom voel. Die huisie is baie goed toegerus en in ‘n baie veilige omgewing. Brandrivier is baie sentraal geleë en al die klein dorpies binne ‘n redelike afstand. Die sterre en stilte is iets om te ervaar!

Heerlike verblyf in ongewone akkommodasie ( luukse tent) in pragtige omgewing. Beslis aan te beveel.

Die verblyf was interessant en ongewoon omdat dit grotendeels 'n tent is. Het egter al die geriewe wat jy nodig het en dit was heerlik knus met gemaklike beddens en goeie linne. Die omgewing om die huis bied baie stapgeleenthede as jy aktief wil wees. Anders kan jy op die stoep sit en die mooi uitsig bewonder. As jy gelukkig is sal jy die troppie springbokke gewaar.

The accommodation was interesting and unusual because it is mostly a tent. However, has all the facilities you need and it was lovely cozy with comfortable beds and good linen. The area around the house offers many walking opportunities if you want to be active. Otherwise you can sit on the veranda and admire the beautiful view. If you are lucky you will spot the herd of springbok.

Pragtige verblyf.

Ons hele gesin het die verblyf by Brandrivier regtig baie geniet. Die permanente tent was weer iets anders as die ander oornagplekke op ons toer en tog het dit geen van die luukshede ontbreek nie. Alles was pragtig netjies en skoon, die uitsig ongelooflik en die kleiner detail soos sjokolades en selfs 'n bottel wyn, het ons baie welkom laat voel. Die stap op die plaas is iets wat ons nooit sal vergeet nie. Ons was selfs so gelukkig om die eerste reën van die seisoen te kon beleef. Baie dankie dat julle hierdie pragtige deel van ons land met ons gedeel het. Volgende keer sal ons definitief langer bly.

Beautiful accommodation.

Our whole family really enjoyed the stay at Brandrivier. The permanent tent was something different to the other overnight places on our tour and still no luxuries were lacking. Everything was beautiful, neat and clean and the view was incredible and the smaller details like chocolates and even a bottle of wine made us feel so welcome. Walking on the farm is something we'll never forget. We were so lucky to experience the first rain of the season. Thank you for sharing your beautiful part of our country with us. Next time we'll definitely stay longer.

Overpriced considering the road noise from the N7.

The facility proved to be disappointing. It was, by double, the most expensive accommodation encountered over a three week trip through the region and whilst we accepted the premium on the basis of the peace and tranquillity we expected, this was not to be. The constant road noise from the N7 was very intrusive and spoilt our stay. That said the facility has all the necessary essentials and the gas braai was a great add on.

Hi Pierre,

Thank you for the feedback. I am very sorry to hear that your stay was not as expected. Our other customers usually enjoy the stay with us, as can be seen below in all the lovely reviews we receive. I hope the rest of your trip was enjoyable.

Kind Regards,
Erika

'n Verblyfopsie in 'n pragtige omgewing waar daar aandag gegee word aan die fyner detail.

Ons het Brandrivier baie geniet en sal beslis weer daarvan gebruik maak. Die huis/tent-kombinasie was vir my kinders baie opwindend. Die akkommodasie is baie goed toegerus met aandag geskenk aan selfs die fyner detail.

An accommodation option in a beautiful area where attention is paid to the finer details.

We enjoyed Brandrivier a lot and will definitely make use of it again. The house/tent combination was very exciting for my children. The accomodation is very well equipped and attention is paid to even the finest detail.

Wow! Fantastiese ervaring!

Sjoe, toe ons by die hek aankom en ons sien vir "Skilpad" teen die randjie toe het ons alreeds geweet dit was die regte plek om te bespreek! Met die oopmaak van die deure was dit 'n groot verrassing van hoe netjies en mooi als is, daar tussen êrens en nêrens. Ek het gebel en laat weet dat ons daar aangekom het en dat alles netjies in orde is en ons is aangesê dat as ons enigsins enigiets benodig ons net moet laat weet. Ons is ook bederf met 'n heerlike bottel wyn en sjokolade ─ baie dankie! Die stort op die stoep is die hoogtepunt! Die sit op die dek terwyl die son sak is prentjiemooi! Ek het die volgende oggend weer gebel en laat weet ons vertrek en sy was so dankbaar vir die oproep en het ons 'n voorspoedige reis toegewens. Baie dankie vir julle opregte gasvryheid, ons beveel julle beslis 10 uit 10 aan!

Wow! Fantastic experience!

Wow, when we arrived at the gate and saw "Turtle" on the ledge we already knew it was the right place to book! Upon opening the doors, it was a big surprise of how neat and beautiful everything is, there between somewhere and nowhere. I called and let them know that we had arrived and that everything was fine and we were told that if we needed anything at all we should just let them know. We were also spoiled with a delicious bottle of wine and chocolate ─ thank you very much! The shower on the porch is the highlight! Sitting on the deck while the sun sets is picture perfect! I called again the next morning and let her know we were leaving and she was so grateful for the call and wished us a safe trip. Thank you very much for your genuine hospitality, we definitely recommend you 10 out of 10!

Fantastiese plek, mooi uitsig, stilte wonderlik.

Brandrivier is pragtig, baie netjies en skoon en gerieflik met vriendelike diens. Die uitsig is wonderlik en ons sal dit beslis weer besoek in blommetyd. Ongelukkig is daar geen lugversorging nie, wat verstaanbaar is omdat hulle sonkrag gebruik.

Fantastic place, beautiful view, silence wonderful.

Brandrivier is beautiful, very neat and clean and comfortable with friendly service. The view is amazing and we will definitely visit again in flower time. Unfortunately there is no air conditioning, which is understandable since they use solar power.

Wat 'n spesiale plek om te besoek!

Ons het heerlik by Brandrivier gebly en alles was baie netjies en skoon. Die moeite wat gedoen is om ons welkom te laat voel, het ons spesiaal laat voel. Ons sal enige tyd weer by Brandrivier se Skilpad gaan kuier! Enigste nadeel is die verkeer van die N7 wat gehoor kan word, maar die natuurskoon en verblyf maak op daarvoor!

What a special place to visit!

We had a wonderful stay at Brandrivier and everything was very neat and clean. The effort made to make us feel welcome made us feel special. We will visit Brandrivier's Turtle again anytime! Only downside is the traffic from the N7 which can be heard, but the scenery and accommodation make up for it!

Na aan die natuur.

Een aand hier is te min, die klipkoppies vra om verken te word. Ons is verras deur talle goggatjies en lede van die akkedis-familie in ons kort kuier. Die omgewing is asemrowend. Skilpad is lieflik ingerig. Die stoele op die stoep is 'n uitnodiging om te ontspan en af te skakel. Dis na aan die N7, maar dit pla nie. Beslis die kuier werd.

Close to nature.

One night here is too little, the stone cups ask to be explored. We were surprised by numerous bugs and members of the lizard family in our short visit. The environment is breathtaking. Tortoise is beautifully furnished. The chairs on the veranda are an invitation to relax and switch off. It's close to the N7, but it doesn't bother. Definitely worth the visit.

Uitstekende verblyf vir mense wat lief is vir die natuur en buitelewe. Meer as genoeg om te doen vir jong kinders met avontuurlus.

Het baie lekker gebly. Die buitestort is 'n hoogtepunt. Kinders kon hulle gate uit geniet en het lekker gestap en geklouter. Op die keper beskou, is hierdie verblyf elke sent werd.

Excellent accommodation for people who love nature and the outdoors. More than enough to do for young children with a sense of adventure.

Had a great stay. The outdoor shower is a highlight. Children could enjoy their holes and had fun walking and scrambling. All in all, this stay is worth every penny.

Die woonplek was 'n aangename verassing. Alles was so gerieflik en daar is aan elke detail aandag gegee. Alles was pragtig skoon en netjies. Die sjokolade en wyn was 'n groot bederf! Baie dankie vir 'n heerlike tydjie op 'n pragtige plaas.

Hou van die opset! Baie, baie netjies en skoon, lekker warm water! Kon stap in die natuur. Blommetyd sal dit 'n 5-ster bestemming wees!

Die enigste punt wat ek wou lig is dat die witwyn dalk 'n bietjie oud is, maar dit was ongelooflik om witwyn en sjokolades te ontvang!

Love the setup! Very, very neat and clean, nice hot water! Could walk in nature. In bloom it will be a 5-star destination!

The only point I wanted to raise is that the white wine might be a bit old, but it was amazing to receive white wine and chocolates!

Stunning setting and facilities, but for the constant road noise.

An altogether wonderful place to stay, great setting, and easy arrangement to access. But sadly the road noise from trucks roaring up and down the route between Cape Town and Namibia spoiled it for us.
