Onvergeetlik Karoo kuier.

Onvergeetlik Karoo kuier. Was 'n nuwe ervaring vir ons. Die stilte kruip diep in jou hart soos die gasvrou en gasheer doen. Die warm ontvangs en warm harte oorheers die Karoo koue. Die voorsiening vir elke moontlike gebeurtenis (selfs 'n noodmedikasie boksie) maak die kuier soveel meer gemaklik en vat baie spanning en onsekerheid oor die afgeleë plaas weg. Die klein gebaarjies was van groot waarde. 'n Buite lig as jy laat aand uit is. Hout vir 'n vuurkie. Soveel Karoo omgee.

Unforgettable Karoo visit.

Unforgettable Karoo visit. Was a new experience for us. The silence creeps deep into your heart as the hostess and host do. The warm welcome and warm hearts dominate the Karoo cold. The provision for every possible event (even an emergency medicine box) makes the visit so much more comfortable and takes away a lot of stress and uncertainty about the remote farm. The small gestures were of great value. An outside light if you're out late at night. Wood for a fire. So much Karoo care.

We loved it!

The location and its surroundings are very calm and beautiful - just a perfect place for nature lovers and to relax. The house is well-equipped and beautifully furnished with stunning views out of all windows. The pool is perfect for a quick cool off in the heat. The hosts are the best one could wish for. They supplied us with everything we needed and even more. We went for a lovely hike within the farm which provided us with stunning views and a lot of animals to discover. We would definitely recommend this place since we had the best time - Thank you very much!

Onvergeetlik en nou 'n permanente oorbly oppad af Kaap toe!

Daar is 'n stilte en 'n skoonheid in die Karoo wat jy net op geen ander plek kan kry nie, wat die siel voed en wat jy kan ervaar. Die huisie baie netjies ingerig en die eienaars het uit hulle pad gegaan om seker te maak ons het alles wat ons nodig het en ons kuier was onvergeetlik. Daar is 'n 40km grondpad na die huis toe, maar die pad was baie mooi en ons kon dit met gemak met ons klien Picanto ry. Een aand is net te kort om hier deur te bring. Karoo Stilte is 'n stukkie juweel en nou 'n permanente herberg oppad Kaap toe en terug.

Unforgettable and now a permanent stay on the way down to the Cape!

There is a silence and a beauty in the Karoo that you just can't find anywhere else, that feeds the soul and that you can experience. The cottage was very neatly furnished and the owners went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed and our visit was unforgettable. There is a 40km dirt road to the house, but the road was very beautiful and we could drive it with ease in our client Picanto. One night is just too short to spend here. Karoo Stilte is a piece of jewel and now a permanent inn on the way to and from the Cape.

This dinkiest of cottages on the Karoo vlaktes provides quietness and peace in spades.

This dinkiest of cottages on the Karoo vlaktes bordering the Karoo National Park certainly lives up to its name - providing quietness and peace in spades. While compact, the cottage has everything - and more - that you need for a very pleasant self-catering stay. Tania and Karel are next-level hosts and are on hand to assist with whatever you need. And if you're a 4x4 nut like me, ask your hosts to route you around their varied and beautiful farm, or just walk to your heart's content.

Karoo Stilte 's response

Dear Nick and Annette
It was an absolute pleasure sharing the farm with you, the obstacles on the farm was no challenge for the beast you were testing! We have just finished marking out a 7 km hike through Alwynskloof! This promises to be a bird and flower paradise in September and October of every year. The sugarbirds "Jangroentjie" in particular feast on the nectar with over 400 aloe in the Kloof. Thank u for staying with us. We are excited about what the future holds and look forward to seeing you again!

Stukkie hemel op aarde.

Tania het ons van vroegdag af op hoogte gebring van die pad, en ook gereeld opgevolg waar ons trek. Die eenheid was silwerskoon en toegerus met alles wat mens moontlik nodig kon hê. Die natuurskoon is asemrowend en die stilte oorverdowend. Dis beslis die afdraai vanaf die N1 werd en ek kan Karoo Stilte beslis aanbeveel.

Tania informed us about the road from early morning, and also regularly followed up on where we were going. The unit was spotless and equipped with everything one could possibly need.

Wonderlike wegbreek vir stilte. Gasvrou baie hulpvaardig en gasvrye ontvangs met aankoms.

Die cottage is baie goed ingerig en baie gerieflik, voldoen aan al die behoeftes. Baie aandag geskenk aan spesifieke behoeftes, veral in kombuis soos basiese benodigdhede, foelie, papierhanddoek, braaisout ens. Afdroogdoeke skoon en vars. Gasvrou handhaaf 'n hoë standaard. Sal dit ter enige tyd vir iemand aanbeveel wat wil wegkom van gewoel. Plaas is langs die Karoo Nasionale Park geleë, goeie grondpad en maklik bereikbaar.

Hospitality beyond measure.

A nature lover's paradise! Tania and Karel are the perfect hosts. We were welcomed with smiles, sent a nice detailed Whatsapp with directions and important info the night before and arrived at this gorgeous, and well equipped home. They literally thought of everything, if you need a mosquito net, doom, braai spice, candles, whatever, it was in the chalet! We made some lovely family memories on this farm - we swam in a steel dam with carp (fish) swimming underneath us. Karel even fed the fish for our son (13 months) to be able to see them close up. Tania offered to bring us sunblock, hats and towels. We spent our afternoon on the very cool and relaxed stoep, drinking wine and watching our fire. At night, we were surrounded with gorgeous stars. We were actually sad to leave the next morning. We will definitely stop over here again. Take into consideration: it is a farm on a gravel road about 42 km's off the N1 - if you don't want to stay in the busy town and want to experience nature, this is perfect for you. If you are easily irritated by driving on a gravel road and are also easily paranoid when staying in the middle of nowhere, this is not for you. We loved this experience and will return!

Dear Samantha, thank u for your kind words. I am elated to share with u that we are now building a pool behind the cottage, so that guests can cool down in a real stone build pool. This has been on the cards for a while but we had to wait for the stone mason to give us time. He is extremely popular and so waiting our turn was well worth it. I will post pictures soon. Hope to see u soon.

Karoo silence is a place where your soul finds rest and peace.

Karoo silence came to envelop my tired silent heart with its warm wind against my ears. Breathtaking simplicity. Outbursts of bright color hidden in the barren stone ridges and bushy plains. Stars that like the pears on the pear tree in our backyard as a child invite you to just reach out and pick….. Hope. Hope came looking for me and now greets me every time again when a heartstring of longing for what was, wants to roll over my cheek. At night I lie listening to the wind and I am grateful for the shelter in which I find myself. Your Hand has never been too short to help, Lord. And Your eye has never been blind. From the fragments of what was, comes new life and hope, veiled blessing - because I - I am Your child. (LC)???? Tania and Karel's hospitality and pampering is an experience.

Oornag in die Karoo

Baie vriendelike eienaars en hartlike ontvangs. Pragtige akkommodasie. Perfek vir 'n oornag of dalk 'n paar dae se Karoo-stilte en rustigheid.

Manna uit die hemel!

Karoo Stilte is die mooiste plekkie wat met liefde en omgee omskep is in 'n gemaklike, stylvolle rusplekkie vir die siel. Daar regtig alles wat jy kan nodig hê. En dan is daar nog lekker verrassings in die yskas ook. Lekker groot vensters gee jou oral uitsig oor die mooi oop Karooveld. Verder kan jy op die onderdakstoep sit en lees, braai of sommer net in die verte tuur met jou gedagtes. Verder kan jy die wye vlaktes in stap of teen die berg uitstap, die wild sien en net die stilte waardeer. Karel en Tania is die wonderlikste gasheer en gasvrou en gaan regtig uit hul pad om dit vir mens 'n wonderlike ervaring te maak.

Manna from heaven!

Karoo Silence is the most beautiful place that has been transformed with love and care into a comfortable, stylish resting place for the soul. There really is everything you could need. And then there are still nice surprises in the fridge too. Nice big windows give you everywhere a view of the beautiful open Karooveld. Furthermore, you can sit on the covered patio and read, barbecue or just stare into the distance with your thoughts. Furthermore, you can walk in the wide plains or walk up the mountain, see the wildlife and just appreciate the silence. Karel and Tania are the most wonderful host and hostess and really go out of their way to make it a wonderful experience.

Stilte en sterreprag.

Die vriendelike ontvangs en omgewings-inligting deur Tania voorsien, het die oorblyf daardie ietsie ekstra gegee. Die ligging, privaatheid en goed toegeruste kothuis is ideaal vir die oornagbesoeker om ten volle te kan ontspan.

Karoo Stilte is awsome.

We were very friendly received by hosts Tania and Karel. Karoo Stilte is a new clean, neat and tidy cottage with the most beautiful views all around. The freshness of the cottage inside is what catches your nose first. We had the opportunity to explore the farm by means of 4x4 and do some game viewing. The Karoo silence and the star gazing at night is awesome. We enjoyed Karoo Stilte so much that we actually stayed an extra night. Tania and Karen spoilt us with braai wood and gave us ideas to explore the Karoo. The views of the mountains around the cottage is breathtaking. The spoils of spanspek, watermelon and olives were such a treat. Thank you again for everything. This is seriously the best place we have ever experienced in Beaufort West. What a way to end off 2020 and start 2021 with Karoo Stilte embodied in our hearts and mind. Tania and Karel you will definitely see us again.

Skoon, netjies, romanties, perfek.

Ek sal die plekkie aan enige paartjie aanbeveel. Tania-hulle het aan alles gedink en die plek is 'n diamant in die Karoo. Die uitsig oor die plaas en sterre in die aand is asemrowend en jy beleef werklik die Karoostilte daar. Die grondpad is mooi glad en kan met enige voertuig gery word. Baie dankie vir 'n lekker oorslaap, sal volgende keer eerder langer bly!

I would recommend the place to any couple. Tania has thought of everything and the place is a diamond in the Karoo. The view over the farm and stars in the evening is breathtaking and you really experience the Karoo silence there. The dirt road is pretty smooth and can be driven with any vehicle. Thank you very much for a nice overnight stay, will stay longer next time!

Karoo Stilte is presies wat die naam sê.

Karel en Tania julle was twee dierbare mense wat ons vreeslik tuis laat voel het. Dankie vir beskuit en ontbytgraan in die oggend. Plek was skoon en netjies. Daar was klaar vuurmaakhout vir lekker braai. Mooiste uitsig gehad. Beveel die plek enige tyd aan.

Lekker.

Hierdie is nie geskik vir oornagfasiliteit. 52 km heen en weer tot by N1 is bietjie ver veral na so lang rit.

Karoo Stilte 's response

Hi Charmaine.
Ek waardeer jou inset, ek dink dit is belangrik dat elke persoon vir verskillende redes ver ry. Die Beloning om by 'n afsaal plekkie te kom wat uit die lawaai is, met geen voertuie, en die sterre met 'n vuurtjie is ultimate. Omtrent 90 % van ons gaste kom of van George, of Kaapstad omgewing of Wesrand en Gauteng. Dit is gelukkig nie almal se ervaring rakende afstand. Julle was regtig ongelukkig om geweldige oponthoude ook te he op die pad.
Baie mense wat by ons aankom, verkies dit bo slaapplek in die dorp juis oor dit stil is.

Stilte under the stars.

Tania and her husband made us feel at home from the time we booked. A beautiful couple with such an interesting life story and future plans in this hidden gem. What an awesome destination majestic sky and mountain views and we were privileged to have sight of Jupiter and Saturn - the Bethlehem star of 2020. The cottage is beautifully appointed and you have every utensil you could need for a twilight escape in the Karoo. Majestic braai and the braaibroodjies and meat pack were to die for. Will definitely return many many times again on our commute to Cape Town from Johannesburg.
