We specially took small electrical bags with us, but there is nowhere to plug them in. Make no mistake, the noise from the trucks on the N1 didn't stop all night.

Convenient to the highway. Might beef up their security for sure.
Only unhappiness, our fridge didn't work at all. Upon arrival we were informed, with no solution. We relied on the facility because we were driving with meat/fresh produce and had to go another 7 hours to our destination the next day. We feel they should have provided alternative facility. An excuse of "we're on a farm" just didn't do it for us.

Very friendly and helpful reception. Perfectly priced for what you get. Clean, tidy and everything you need. The N1's traffic does not bother at all. I would suggest the carpet be taken out or maybe just washed - it has seen better days. The hot tap in the kitchen is loose and needs to be fixed. You must hold the spout when you turn on the tap. Lovely and peaceful - The beat-beat of the windmill's turn is beautiful and nostalgic. The Pepper trees (I think I got the name right) around the houses are lovely.

Inconvenient.
March 16th there was no power when we got there the next morning when we drove hey the power was still not on. March 19 there was also no power luckily arrived later. The challenge is not the load shedding it is that the place is not set up for load shedding there was only one light for two rooms, no facilities for making food if you don't grill cold water for bathing. The owner can feel free to call in gas facilities such as stove and geyser.

The place is very neat and close to the road. I think it's convenient when everything works. Unfortunately during our visit there was no power (eskom). We got there in the thunder and drove in the dark. As a result, there was also no hot water or signal, nor could we charge our phones or keep cold drinks cold for the next day. . An advantage would be that they purchase a small generator for such cases (at least for hot water and a small fridge and can charge a phone). Wifi would also be nice - at least you want to be able to let your family know that you are safe. The rest of the time you sleep.

Very conveniently located, quick to get on N1 the next morning and drive home. Very neat and clean, the beds are firm and the bedding clean. The kitchen is well equipped and very clean. Nice farm pond swim, always a winner after a long day on the road. The flashing foul-smelling light outside Chalet 1 disturbed my sleep. Instead of a peaceful Karoo farm sleep it felt like I was spending the night in a backstreet hotel with a flashing neon light outside the window.

Ideal sleepover to split a long journey.
Chalet is tidy, pet friendly and ideal for overnight stays. Unfortunately we were there on the coldest night of the winter, the wind was blowing, making it very difficult to barbecue. Would have been better if the barbecue facility was better sheltered from the cold wind. Despite enough blankets, we also slept a bit cold, I think the mattresses let the cold through from below. On the other hand, it was the ideal sleepover, nice and private, a nice family adventure and the price is very reasonable.

Horrible place with all night trucks driving in N1 highway 200-300m from accommodation. Poor security for a farm, especially in this day and age and so close to the highway.
The photos and information of the place are very misleading. The place is right off the N1 with no security fencing around the farm, just a plain old fashioned farm gate. Didn't feel safe at all, not clean, plates weren't even clean and we had to wash them again. No tongs at all. We tried to call to find alternative accommodation but because it was already late in the afternoon we couldn't find one and if it wasn't for the curfew and the fact that we were so tired we would surely have driven back to PTA. The bedding is already old and battered. The bath and shower faucets do not work well, the table on the porch and chairs are very old and full of bird droppings. The ceiling fan doesn't even have a light shield around it and isn't a ceiling fan because it doesn't work! The carpets are full of dust and the place is hot and stuffy because you don't dare to open the windows during the night, firstly because you don't feel safe and secondly because the trucks that pass close to the place make so much noise. I certainly wouldn't even recommend the place to anyone. The cleaner had the audacity to put a box there with "TIP R50. 00" written on it - can you do more for such a dirty place! We first had to pay the remaining 50% before the Lindi lady took us to the unit and I can well understand why. I wouldn't have paid that if I first saw the place. The photo looks like farm accommodation and it refers to farm dam. The farm pond is located at the main house and not at the two chalets - and I definitely won't be swimming in it no matter how hot I get!

Good option for a quick overnight stop on the N1.
The unit was clean and very easy to get to from the N1. It works well for a one night stay on the way to or from the Cape.

We slept in the 'barn' option. It was a one night stay and we had trouble sleeping.
It was warm as is typical for the time of year. Only one fan worked, you couldn't open the windows in all the rooms of the unit. Some of the windows opened in the laundry and in the carriage house. The carpets in the rooms are very old, but clean. You had to walk through one room into the other and there were no chairs in the kitchen. We liked the cement dam.

Clean, but expected more - did not meet photos.
I expected more for the money we paid, even if it was only for an overnight stay on the way back to Pretoria. The house was clean and tidy, but did not live up to the photos - it was much more rustic. There was e.g. no doors on all the bedrooms, some of the door locks were broken (bedroom door and the front door) and there weren't even toilet roll holders in the bathrooms (little things that make a big difference). We got there in the dark, it is against the highway and we felt very unsafe (not the place's fault). At least nothing happened and in the daylight it appeared much better (safer). Bets was very friendly and answered all the messages quickly and kindly.

Nice stay but a few small comments.
The place was neat and the service good so at least it was a nice stay. What bothered me was that there are the chalets and then a type of house built in a warehouse, there are more beds and a lot more space but from the photos on the website you can't really see what the place looks like. and you don't really know what you're booking. So although the chalets may be completely different; just take into account if you book in the bigger place. For example, one room does not have a door and some of the windows look out into places that have been built out next door in the same warehouse. If you just want to sleep over, it probably won't bother you much. There is a plastic tray waiting for you on the table that says: TIPS R50, I don't mind leaving a tip but being told how much to tip annoys me quite a bit.

We spent the night in Chalet 1 on the way to Cape Town and back, the unit was neat, clean and equipped with the basics for an overnight stay. For overnight stays only, the unit is ideal. The chalets are a stone's throw from the main road, but the accommodation was very safe. I would recommend adding a plug with two power points for the microwave and fridge to be used at the same time, currently you have to unplug the fridge to use the microwave and then swap the power points again.

Accommodation is basic and suitable for overnight - we slept in the house and what bothered us was that the room with its own bathroom did not have a door!
The room that doesn't have a door on it is really bad if you are traveling with friends and not just a family - especially considering that the other room is a walk-through room to room 3. This can and should be fixed and really won't be a big expense. The power also kicked out. This is not a new mistake because the person on duty knew immediately which switch to turn off. This resulted in the fridge not being able to stay on.

Place was advertised for R550 for 2 persons. With reservation, the amount was R650 and because I would then already be on the road for 9 hours and then again on the road for 11 hours, I accepted it as such. I have to say that for R670 I spent the night 2 weeks before in luxury at another place so much closer to the Cape if I had to compare it with the place. Also, Gariep N1's bedding had not been replaced. Unfortunately, we didn't notice until the next morning that the sheet we slept on was full of black hair. Other than that the place was clean.

A little surprised. Not what I expected. Expect more of a resort than just 3 structures. No TV for the kids. Well enough sleeping space. Doors need attention. Front door can barely close, which is not good for safety. Can get better value for money in Colesberg itself unfortunately. Staff were friendly.

It was absolutely a wonderful experience. A silence and peace that only the Karoo / Southern Free State can offer you.
My husband and I were in a state of shock when we drove into N1 Chalets' gate on Monday afternoon. She was under the impression that we were going to spend the night at a holiday resort; and here we drive into a farm gate to a building that looks like a farmstead. I was ecstatic when I saw the place because I used to visit a Karoo farm long ago. What a great place to stay! Turkeys in front of the back porch, chickens in a coop a short distance away and a real farm pond that offered great fun after several hours of driving. We stayed at N1 chalets on both the Southward and Northward trips and will definitely stay there again on our next trip. Prospective customers should bear in mind that the nearest shopping facilities are approximately 35 km from the N1 Chalets, so bring the braai pack and other refreshments. However, there is firewood and ice for sale.

I wouldn't want to go back to the old homestead. Although it was great, the lack of cozy interiors and mirrors especially for ladies to do their hair and bedside lamps would perhaps make it extra convenient to read at night. The outside porch was full of bat droppings and blown leaves and no chair to sit on. At least there was a nice sofa with a table in the braai area, but in the sun. Furthermore, it was very nice.

A place with a lot of potential, if the layout of the rooms and building is done better, bathrooms have no ventilation, as well as its privacy with a view through the windows looking at the workers' linen room. The same with the kitchen, which causes the rooms to be very hot. Many closets in place are locked for private use which gives the impression that you have only limited use, and the same with some of the curtains. Roof fans are old, inadequate and make a lot of noise. Beds of good quality.

For the price, we really couldn't expect anything more. However, toilet paper in the bathrooms would be appreciated and maybe soap/shampoo. No chairs around the kitchen table. Camp chairs carried outside on the porch to serve the purpose. A microwave can also make a difference. The layout is not very functional at all, especially if it is to be used for different visitors at the same time, but can only be improved at great cost, which will lead to higher costs. (It has 6 beds but cannot really be used at the same time for two or three smaller groups of 2 or three people each). However, the two chalets look very functional.

Ideal location close to main road for an overnight stop. Could also improve security a bit seeing as how the area is very dark and there are no other houses in the vicinity.

Will sleep there again but will also plan for the unforeseen first.
Please also take care of a plan B. According to the advertisement, guests get 1 bag of braai wood complementary, so everything except wood is packed for the first night's braai. Great was the surprise to learn that we were not catered for because the other guests had taken all the wood. Also, there were not enough towels provided. Location is good if only for a stop and overnight.

Great overnight accommodation after a long journey.
The chalets were clean and tidy. Although they can perhaps just move the cupboards and beds and clean underneath those as well. There were no plugs for two-prong plugs. It would also be great if they can check what time you're leaving so that you don't end up in front of a closed gate when you leave early in the morning.

Neat and clean accommodation off the N1. Beautiful environment
Neat and clean accommodation in a beautiful environment. There's a lovely dam to swim in, the sunset is astounding and the stars are so bright. The noise from the N1 can be annoying and a fan would have been helpful seeing that the ceiling fan was very noisy. The chalets are very distant and only secured by a 4-feet fence, but we didn't feel unsafe at all. We will definitely make use of this establishment again. The Gariep Dam is only a few kilometres' drive and we could peacefully watch the shore and enjoy a refreshment in town.

The accommodation is well-located but it needs attention.
We slept at 8 places in 8 days and this was the last. There were too few towels, one room did not have a door, one bed was not made up and we were out of water at 07:30. The patio outside's in front of the glass sliding door was really dirty. Unfortunately, this accommodation did not meet our basic expectations while the rest of our previous 7 nights were very good and tidy. I believe with little attention and dedication can get the place up to standard.

Although we stayed the night during mid summer, we were disappointed to find only one fan in the chalet and there was also no necessary wall plug for the fan. The water ran out - after only one bath with little water. We also did not feel safe so close to the N1 (there were burglar bars in front of the windows). The place was neat, but for the price we expected more.

Stay away
We booked 6 months before our stay. The day of our reservation, the owner booked us into another place, Spioenkop Chalets. We bowed and got on with it. The place was quite an extra drive and hard to find with no signs. The owner said nothing about electricity not working. The house was faded and dirty. The ice in the freezer had mosquitoes in it. There was no being either. No dishwashing soap and sponge. The morning we left we waited half an hour to get out of the farm gate because the owner didn't answer his phone. Then a farm worker at least opened up for us. Would highly recommend Gariep N1 and Spioenkop Chalets.

We were surprised by an intruder who had problems with his car and didn't sleep well afterwards because we doubted the security at the entrance which was clearly lacking. The staff informed us that the place will be more developed in the near future. We will definitely return if there is better access control and security.

Dis baie basies, maar was pragtig skoon en netjies, met asemrowende uitsigte.

It's very basic, but was beautifully clean and tidy, with breathtaking views.
The two chalets were well furnished and have everything you need for overnight accommodation. The service was excellent from the time we arrived until we drove off. The facilities are very clean and tidy. The two chalets have a breathtaking view, and with the facilities being no more than 500m away from the N1, it is easy to get in and out from the motorway. For an overnight stay I would recommend it, but don't expect 5 star accommodation.

Very conveniently close to the N1!
I am very impressed with LekkeSlaap's service! All the arrangements made over the internet, easy and efficient! Also found N1 Chalets hassle free, we arrived late in the evening and left very early with no problems! We will definitely use Lekkerslaap and N1 Chalets again!

We found it very pleasant.
It was clean (except for the grill, but it was cleaned immediately when we requested it.) A microwave would be convenient.

One night over on the way to Pretoria.
Als was clean and the staff who receive you are friendly. I missed that there were no paid options. No one has informed that it is not possible to pay with a card. It is basically Free State/Karoo area and the accommodation does not offer any cooling method. I asked for a fan and received none. No provisions have been made against insects either, there is no mesh in front of the windows (now you have to sleep with the windows open, because there is no air conditioning or fans) also no poison to burn for mosquitoes.
