What a nice getaway.
The Farm Kleine Windpompie was one of the nicest places we stayed this year. This is the cutest place where we could walk around. You can just relax. The host and hostess were so lovely and brought us wood and forwarded us with all information about the town. The place is clean and tidy. There are big towels (which is so nice for us), enough water pressure and hot water and solar power without a problem. Most beautiful landscape - I took the most beautiful photos. It is a must to visit there.

It was very nice and peaceful. It's even more beautiful than in the photos. The host and hostess are friendly and helpful. I can't wait to visit again. It was so peaceful and beautiful. Absolutely worth it! The place has breathtaking views that you won't see anywhere else. Romantic cottage is perfect for a romantic getaway. Route 62 and Barrydale are beautiful themselves.

It was good to just rest in silence in nature with animals around us.
Would love to have contact with the owner because he is an ex-Dutchman and we also come from Holland.

Quiet and private. The host and wife are very friendly and considerate.
We really enjoyed the privacy and tranquility. The "sit down pool" was obviously a winner in the heat of summer. The stay is very basic and exactly what we kissed. The solar power was more than sufficient and it was nice to get by with just the basics. Great stay!

Quiet in nature.
The cottage is excellently located with a very nice view. The bath with the fireplace creates a romantic atmosphere. Sarah went the extra mile (balloons and pre-packaged wood) to make it special for my husband's birthday. Definitely a place to recommend for a cold winter evening or just a nice romantic getaway.

Location very nice, accommodation can improve.
The location is very beautiful all around. The cottage can definitely improve. The water pressure is very weak, which causes the shower to not work well at all, the water is only lukewarm. The work space and dining table are very cramped. Four people will not be able to work at all (2 people struggle with space). The price does not justify the accommodation offered.

Unbelievable!
My husband and I had an amazing time at Kleine Windpompie! The farm is extremely beautiful and we were in love with all the animals - the sheep, the dogs, the goats, etc. The place is extremely romantic and we gazed at the stars. It was breathtaking! Sarah and Robert were extremely hospitable and always friendly and gave us recommendations for places to visit in the town as well as a waterfall where you can have a picnic. The waterfall was lovely! I would definitely recommend it to anyone and would say that two nights or more would be ideal to fully enjoy the cottage as well as Barrydale itself.

Perfekte wegbreek. Die stilte, die diere rondom mens, die plaaslewe, maar tog so bietjie Karoo ook by. Heerlike paadjies om te gaan stap in die vars lug. Die plaas is perfek geleë, so naby aan Barrydale wat die oulikste eetplekke het. Robert en Sarah is so gasvry en gaan uit hulle pad om die kuier nog lekkerder te maak.

Perfect getaway. The silence, the animals around you, the farm life, but still a bit of Karoo too. Lovely paths to go for a walk in the fresh air. The farm is perfectly located, so close to Barrydale which has the cutest places to eat. Robert and Sarah are so hospitable and go out of their way to make the visit even more enjoyable.
Perfect switch off spot.

Great stay and a great experience.
We only stayed one night at Kleine Windpompie. It was too short and we will stay longer next time. The accommodation consists of a compact open-plan cottage situated on a slope with a beautiful view of the farm and mountains. The accommodation is located a few kilometers outside Barrydale on a sheep farm, close enough to drive there if you forgot something. The cottage has a kitchen with a gas stove, large fridge, crockery such as plates, glasses, cutlery. Coffee, tea, sugar, milk and biscuits are provided. The hostess provided 2 large containers of drinking water as the water from the taps is borehole water. The bed was a double bed with extra blankets for the cold evenings. The shower, toilet and sink are en suite. There is a large closet where you can store your bags and other luggage so you have more space to move around. There was also doom and a portable light should you need it. Outside your bedroom you walk out onto a large covered deck. There was a fireplace, braai drum and a hot tub. The view is breathtakingly beautiful. You can buy fireplace wood and braai wood directly from the hostess. Due to the drought and the lack of water that the farmers have, we ourselves decided not to use the hot tub. I hope we can use it on our next visit. It started to rain lightly and we were wonderfully warm in front of our fireplace and could barbecue without getting wet. There is also an outdoor firepit if you would prefer hey to grill outdoors. We were lucky to be able to see the rainbow after the short rain. What a privilege it was to see the full moon rise in front of us as well as being able to see the stars later. There is no TV or WiFi, this gives you the opportunity to enjoy nature as well as to be able to chat with each other and just be calm. There is mobile phone reception and if you have data you can use your mobile phone with good reception. Robert and Sarah were very nice and helpful, and respected your privacy. You could walk around the farm, look at the sheep. There was also a tame kid and 2 friendly dogs. The view was beautiful from your cottage with a balcony all around, so you can admire the scenery all the time. We can recommend Kleine Windpompie for an exceptional and unique experience.
