Nostalgies, plaashuis ervaring, verrassings met Afrikana en ander oudhede, ens.

Vriendelike ontvangs, knus akkommodasie, gerieflike bed. Weer het ons ongelukkig verhoed om buite area te benut.

Die verblyf was soos manna, na ure op die pad kon ons rus in 'n woning wat alles bied wat ons op daai stadium nodig gehad het. Skoon beddegoed, koffie met bokmelk.

Vreemd, eksentriek, maar interessant. Rui is 'n goeie gasheer.

Ons wou op Brandfort oorslaap. Ja, die huis is baie oud en a.g.v. die baie goed, kom dit stowwerig en verwaarloos voor. Die kamer was pragtig en alles wat jy nodig het.

Ons was op pad na Kgalagadi, en Brandvlei was 'n gerieflike halfweg-stop.

Die verblyf is wat mens kan verwag vir die goedkoop prys. Dit was nogal koud, so die winterslakens, elektriese kombers en lugverwarmer was baie welkom. Die beste aanbeveling was om die aand by die Rooi Windpomp te gaan eet. Die restaurant is langs die R27 en werklik die moeite werd vir enige persoon wat selfs middagete langs die pad wil nuttig! Hulle Windpomp-burger (200 gram gemaalde skaap) is so groot dat mens dit maklik kan deel. Ongelooflike waarde vir geld en fantastiese plattelandse gasvryheid.

We were on our way to Kgalagadi, and Brandvlei was a convenient halfway stop.

The accommodation is what one can expect for the cheap price. It was quite cold, so the winter sheets, electric blanket and air heater were very welcome. The best recommendation was to eat at the Rooi Windpomp in the evening. The restaurant is along the R27 and really worth it for anyone who wants to have lunch along the way! Their Windpomp burger (200 grams of ground lamb) is so big that you can easily share it. Amazing value for money and fantastic country hospitality.

Sal volgende keer dalk net 'n entjie verder reis.

Opsies in die omgewing was baie min en daarom 'n geval van "supply en demand". Sal volgende keer eerder entjie verder reis tot 'n groter dorp met meer opsies. Ons hou van "off the beaten track", Rui was 'n baie aangename en behulpsame gasheer en die kamer was ook netjies en ons het lekker geslaap. Dit was egter effe ongemaklik want die kamer was nie en suite, die toilet het nie lekker gewerk nie en die water was baie min in die badkamer asook yskoud. Sal nie aanbeveel vir mense met kinders agv die honde.

Will maybe travel a little further next time.

Options in the area were very few and therefore a case of "supply and demand". Would rather travel a little further next time to a bigger town with more options. We like "off the beaten track", Rui was a very pleasant and helpful host and the room was also tidy and we slept well. However, it was a bit uncomfortable because the room was not en suite, the toilet did not work well and the water was very little in the bathroom as well as freezing cold. Would not recommend for people with children due to the dogs.

Dit was 'n interessante ervaring.

Aanvanklik het ons ons bedenkinge gehad, maar die plek het 'n ouwêreldse sjarme. Rudie, die eienaar was baie behulpsaam en vriendelik. Teen 19:00 het die hele gehuggie toegemaak. Daar was 'n doodse stilte. Ons het heerlik onderdak by die braai gekuier en die stilte geniet en die skouspel van donderblitse in die verte. Dit is 'n klein gehuggie, maar lekker sentraal halfpad tussen Upington en Calvinia. Die enigste klagte is die kalkwater wat krane laat vassit het. Maar dit is soos dit nou maar in daardie wêreld is. Daar kan niks aan gedoen word nie. Dis die water van die omgewing met sy uitdagings en dit is 'n droë wêreld waar water nie gemors kan word nie.

It was an interesting experience.

At first we had our reservations, but the place has an old world charm. Rudie, the owner was very helpful and friendly. By 19:00 the whole hamlet had closed down. There was a dead silence. We had a wonderful time under cover at the braai and enjoyed the silence and the spectacle of thunder and lightning in the distance. It's a small hamlet, but nicely central halfway between Upington and Calvinia. The only complaint is the lime water that caused taps to get stuck. But that's the way it is in that world. Nothing can be done about it. It's the water of the environment with its challenges and it's a dry world where water cannot be wasted.

Strange and uncomfortable.

It wasn't too clean. It's very old. If you have no other place to sleep, this is an option. We will not stop there again. It's very strange. We have never laughed so much. My husband wanted to open the curtain, then the whole rail fell off. There was a strange smell that hung in the house. You have to kick open the front door to open it. It was a unique experience.
