Die beste oornagverblyf halfpad tussen die Kaap en Gauteng!

Die oornagverblyf op pad na die Kaap was eersteklas gewees! Egte Karoo gasvryheid!

Hosts are welcoming and friendly.

It was very pleasant and the buffet dinner was delicious! There are activities at the camp which are not mentioned on the site, such as Shy 5 Game Drive in the evening or a Hippo Drive, as well as paddling around the lake. The shower curtain in the tented camp needs to be changed as it looks grimy, but I'm sure this will be done now that the season has ended.

Nadat ons gebel was 3 ure voor ons arriveer, was die eenheid nie voorberei of skoongemaak nie.

Dag 1 se aankoms was glad nie wat ons verwag het nie. Baie teleurgesteld in die diens. Die ketel was vuil en vol kalk. Geen buite-asblik beskikbaar nie. Geen braaigeriewe beskikbaar nie, moes maar plan maak en items loop soek. Baie swak buitebeligting. Badkamer is skoon, maar ongemaklik om te gebruik terwyl persone aansit vir ete en net 'n oop glasdeur die aansig skei. Baie swak waterdruk en wag 'n ewigheid vir warm water. Geen ontvangs was beskikbaar nie en moes 'n persoon gaan soek vir hulp.

After we called 3 hours before our arrival, the unit was not prepared or cleaned.

Day 1's arrival was not at all what we expected. Very disappointed in the service. The boiler was dirty and full of lime. No outdoor bin available. No braai facilities available, had to plan and go looking for items. Very poor outdoor lighting. Bathroom is clean, but uncomfortable to use while people sit down for dinner and only an open glass door separates the view. Very poor water pressure and waiting forever for hot water. No reception was available and had to go find a person for help.

Dit was baie lekker om in die natuur te wees, die sonsondergang was baie mooi en die uitsig oor die dam en al die geluide in die natuur van die diere en voëls.

Dit was 'n baie lekker ontspanne kuier, net wat 'n mens nodig het voordat jy weer die langpad vat. Heerlik geslaap met die reën wat geval het en die heerlike koel weer.

Op pad huis toe en lekker om die vakansie so af te sluit in die stilte en prag van die Karoo.

Het alle verwagtinge oortref. Wildsrit met sonsondergang was ’n hoogtepunt. Hierdie sal van nou af ons oornagplek wees elke jaar op pad Kaap toe.

Karig en koud.

Die plaas is mooi en lekker maar volgende keer sal ons beslis eerder van die ander akkommodasiegeriewe gebruik maak. Die tente is ongerieflik en die stort se water was koud. Ablusie geriewe is nie baie privaat nie en ook nie baie skoon. Buffetete was heerlik.

There is more to this camp than just an overnight stay on route to final destination. It deserves a longer stay. There are game drives and interesting things to see and experience about the Karoo.

Uitstekende geriewe, billik geprys. Fantastiese oornagplek tussen Kaapstad en die binneland.

Tegemoetkoming was uitstekend; het ons laat ontvang en ons kon vroeg weer vertrek. Geriewe was eerste klas en 'n aangename verassing. Ons het welliswaar in die gastehuis en nie in die tente gebly nie.

Dit was so rustig om net weer asem te skep na die dag se ry.

Dit was voorwaar 'n heerlike plekkie, ons wat lief is vir kamp het die tent oornag sommer baie geniet. Net 'n voorstel, as julle dalk 'n klein tafeltjie met 4 stoele kan verskaf voor tent om te kan sit en eet buite.

Gemaklik.

Ons het die verblyf baie geniet, die mense is baie gasvry en die kos is puik. Die verblyf was baie lekker en ons het lekker geslaap, ek sal wel voorstel as jy klein kinders het (onder 5 jaar oud) dat jy eerder een can die chalets book. Asook as hulle 1 of 2 babastoele kan aanskaf sal dit ook etenstye vir die gaste met klein babas gemakliker maak. Maar verder was die diens puik die verblyf was uitstekend, die atmosfeer was gemaklik en het ons lat voel asof ons op vakansie is.

We enjoyed the stay, the people are very hospitable and the food is great. The stay was very nice and we slept well, I would suggest if you have small children (under 5 years old) that you can book the chalets. As well as providing 1 or 2 baby chairs, it will also make meals for the guests with small babies more comfortable. But the service was excellent, the stay was excellent, the atmosphere was comfortable and made us feel like we were on vacation.

Lieflike plaas atmosfeer.

Ons het een aand hier oornag in die tented camp. Die ontvangs was wonderlik en PC het ons dadelik welkom laat voel. Ons het op die laaste besluit om wel by die restaurant te eet en hul kon ons ongelukkig nie akkomodeer nie. Hul het egter 'n plan gemaak en vir ons alternatiewe aandete voorberei. Die kinders het die plaas en diere vreeslik geniet. Ek sou egter net graag 'n klein yskassie in die kamer wou gehad het om koeldrank ens. koud te hou. Hulle het ons egter tegemoet gekom met ons vriesgoed en dit in die kombuis gestoor. Ek sal Karoo Gariep vir almal aanbeveel.

Lovely farm atmosphere.

We spent one night here in the tented camp. The reception was great and PC immediately made us feel welcome. We decided at the last to eat at the restaurant and unfortunately they could not accommodate us. However, they made a plan and prepared an alternative dinner for us. The children really enjoyed the farm and animals. However, I would have liked to have a small bar fridge in the room for cold drinks etc. to keep cold However, they met us with our frozen food and stored it in the kitchen. I would recommend Karoo Gariep to everyone.

Baie oulike plek. Muskiete sal jou net baie pla, as die wind nie waai nie. Bietjie ver van die pad af (grondpad moet geskraap word).

Sien sterre.

Very cute place. Mosquitoes will only bother you a lot, if the wind is not blowing. A bit far from the road (dirt road needs to be scraped).

See stars.

We really enjoyed our stay.

The place is clean. I would, however, have liked a small fridge and a braai outside the tent. PC and Mariska very friendly.

An oasis after a long and trying drive from Joburg.

Some feedback, we missed the turnoff on the N1. Please add kms from Colesburg as well as Bloem. Also I was expecting a public gravel road, please mention "private road" and mention that the "Mario Garieb" sign is painted on a reddish gate, along with another sign, and is not a road sign.

Beslis die beste rusplek ooit.

Die gasvryheid en diens is fantasties. Die kos is hemels lekker en die beskuit is uit die boonste gestoeltes en hier kan jy gewis rus. Dis rustig en stil. Skoon en netjies. Julle sien ons gewis weer.

Dankie vir die geweldige vriendelikheid en goedhartigheid.

Ons het geweldige vriendelikheid, goedhartigheid en gasvryheid beleef. Ons het regtig meer ontvang as waarvoor ons gekom het. Sal die plek enige tyd aanbeveel. Die eienaars is kosbare mense. Skoon, matrasse in goeie toestand, lugreëling en die mees fantastiese uitsig en natuurskoon.
