Quiet, peaceful and a home from home.

We used this venue as a base while we were involved in business training in Bredasdorp. It was an absolute pleasure to take the short drive out of town away from everything to enjoy our evenings in the quiet of the countryside. I loved our stay and we will be using this venue again in future.

Heerlik rustig.

Naby genoeg aan die dorp as jy melk vergeet het en ver genoeg vir daai rustige plattelandse gevoel. Goed toegerus.

Wonderfully peaceful.

Close enough to town if you forgot milk and far enough for that quiet country feel. Well equipped.

Great weekend breakaway.

This is great if you are looking for a peaceful setting in nature. You have scenic views of rolling hills and countryside as far as the eye can see with prolific bird life. The cottage is spacious, light and airy with a very well-equipped kitchen. There are 3 options for braaing: indoors, outdoors and a Weber. It is a great base for touring the area.

Very nice accommodation. Would stay there again.

My family and kids stayed there, this past Valentines weekend. Very nice and clean. Loved the sound of sheep in the distance. Could be a little cheaper. But all in all very nice.

Salig.

Ons het ons verblyf by Karsrivier vreeslik geniet. Die rustige plaasatmosfeer het gesorg vir 'n heerlike wegbreek uit die stad en was presies waarvoor ons gehoop het. Die huis is goed toegerus en baie mooi en netjies. Die plattelandse gasvryheid van die nabygeleë dorpies van Bredasdorp, Napier, Struisbaai en L'Agulhas het vir 'n heerlike vakansie gesorg.

Blessed.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Karsrivier. The tranquil farm atmosphere provided a wonderful getaway from the city and was exactly what we hoped for. The house is well equipped and very nice and neat. The rural hospitality of the nearby villages of Bredasdorp, Napier, Struisbaai and L'Agulhas provided a wonderful holiday.

'n Ongelooflike en rustige 2 dae in 'n netjiese en skoon gastehuis in 'n pragtige omgewing.

Ek, my man en ons 7 jarige seuntjie het 2 dae heerlik ontspan in die pragtige Karsrivier Gastehuis. Die huis was skoon, netjies en alles wat ons vir ons tydjie nodig gehad het was daar. Dit is altyd die klein goedjies wat 'n verskil maak en in hierdie geval kan jy sien dat baie tyd en aandag aan die detail spandeer is. Jy kry sommer so lekker plaas-gevoel as jy daar kuier. Ons het lekker gekuier op die stoep, waar my seuntjie veilig om die huis kon speel. Regtig 'n juweel in die omgewing. Dankie vir die pragtige plekkie, ons sal beslis weer daar bly as ons in die omgewing is.

An incredible and peaceful 2 days in a neat and clean guest house in a beautiful environment.

Me, my husband and our 7-year-old son spent 2 wonderful days relaxing in the beautiful Kars River Guest House. The house was clean, tidy and everything we needed for our time was there. It's always the little things that make a difference and in this case you can see that a lot of time and attention has been spent on the detail. You just get such a nice farm feeling when you visit there. We had a great time on the porch, where my little boy could safely play around the house. Truly a gem in the area. Thank you for the beautiful place, we will definitely stay there again if we are in the area.

'n Wonderlike plekkie naby natuur.

Besondere netheid het opgeval. Rustige plaasatmosfeer, baie spesiaal. Sterrehemel, voëltjies besig om nessies te bou was ongelooflik. Kan so 'n plekkie met geruste hart aanbeveel.

Hemel op Aarde.

Hierdie plekkie is 'n juweel op die plaas en nie ver van die dorp nie. Baie rustig, skoon en baie goed ingerrig. Marlene en Kosie Wessels is vriendelike mense en sal 'n ekstra myl vir hul gaste stap - dankie vir die ekstra hout, Marlene. Karsrivier Gastehuis sal altyd ons eerste keuse in Bredasdorp wees.

A real gem!

I was not too sure of what to expect but this was a great find. I stay at a lot of B&B's as I cycle numerous events in the Cape and further. This was the best of all. Clean, spacious with everything you needed. I could not fault it at all and will definitely return when I get the chance. I have already told my friends about Karsrivier so I may have difficulty in finding a booking.

Absoluut ‘n wenner!

Ons was mal oor die kothuis. Klein details is oral in die huis. Puik geleë en 'n puik gasheer. Die huis het baie spasie. Kombuis is goed toegerus met alles was jy benodig en nog meer. Is definitief meer as 5 sterre werd.

Baie oulike wegbreekhuisie in 'n rustige omgewing.

Goed ingerig. Baie mooi uitsig en lekker naby aan dorp. Ander huisie naby maar voel tog afgesonder. Watertoevoer word deur 'n drukpomp voorsien. Dit was 'n probleem. Wanneer koue water oopgemaak word terwyl iemand stort raak stort se koue water weg. Mens kan lelik verbrand so.

Very cute holiday home in a peaceful environment.

Well appointed. Very nice view and nice close to town. Other cottage close by but still feels secluded. Water supply is provided by a pressure pump. It was a problem. When cold water is turned on while someone is showering, the shower's cold water disappears. You can get badly burned like that.

Awesome stay at the cottage.

We stayed here just for 1 night, but it was a great experience! The cottage is very cozy, but big, has a fully equipped kitchen, even has an indoor braai! Nice property as well, and not too far from the road. We found a free bottle of wine in the kitchen, a nice touch. It's a bit hard to find using the location provided on this site, but Karsrivier is only a couple of houses so we figured it out fast enough. Very friendly host. We loved it and can only highly recommend it! Perfect for a family or group of friends.
