What delightful hosts! The host pays such attention to making your stay enjoyable. Her delicious rusks, piping hot home-baked bread, farm-fresh eggs, and milk really made us feel welcome. The cottage was perfect, so comfortable and surrounded by amazing views from every window. The millions of stars at night were the cherry on the top of a marvellous stay. I am so glad we booked for a week, but could have stayed longer!

Ons het min gerus, want ons was by die KKNK vertonings, maar waar kry jy plaasvars eiers, 1 liter vars melk, koekies, beskuit, en vars roosterkoeke met jou aankoms? Net hier!

Dit was voorwaar 'n aangename wegbreek, uiters netjiese akkommodasie, rustigheid en die mooi prentjie van die natuurskoon wat deur elke venster sigbaar is, veral op die voorstoep by die braai waar ons lekker gekuier het.

Dis die plek om herhaaldelik te kom bly.

Barbara is super aangename gasvrou. Die naam van die plek is alles "The promised land". Uitsig van berge en rustigheid maak dit die beste plek om "af te skakel". Ons het in Gwarriebos gebly en daar kort niks nie. Die vars warm brood wat ons gekry het by Barbara was heerlik. My derde keer dat ek hier bly en die verrassing is altyd welkom.

Hi David! Ja, ongelukkig is ons so 12kms uit die dorp, vir stilte en rus en vrede en dis hoekom mense hier bespreek en nie in die dorp nie. Ek is nie seker hoekom jou GPS ons nie optel nie, want ek is beslis sigbaar op Google Maps en my pin location behoort julle tot voor die hek te bring, asook die aanwysings op LekkeSlaap se webblad. Ek hoop dat julle darem die rustyd hier by ons geniet.

Sublime and tranquil. Great view.

Little Canaan was a perfect place for our retreat. It offered a very sublime and tranquil experience, exactly what we were looking for. We couldn't ask for a better place than Little Canaan. To top it off, the owner is only a text away, so welcoming; her smile is contagious. Her freshly baked bread aroma and her homemade apricot and vanilla jam were to die for. The bonus was no distractions; the farm allows you that refreshing early morning walks with breathtaking bird music.

Fantasties.

Little Canaan Retreat was die hoogtepunt van ons vakansie. Die huisie was goed toegerus, baie netjies, silwerskoon en het aan al ons standaarde voldoen. Die uitsig is prentjiemooi! Dit was so lekker om op die stoep te sit en koffie drink terwyl die kinders die stukkie veld voor die huis verken. Werklik 'n plek vir sielsrus. Dankie vir jul vriendelikheid en gasvryheid! Ons het vinnig gemaklik en tuis gevoel. Ons sal sonder twyfel weer daar bly, maar volgende keer bly ons langer!

Fantastic.

Little Canaan Retreat was the highlight of our vacation. The cottage was well equipped, very neat, spotless and met all our standards. The view is picture perfect! It was so nice to sit on the porch and drink coffee while the children explored the field in front of the house. Truly a place for soul rest. Thank you for your kindness and hospitality! We quickly felt comfortable and at home. We will definitely stay there again, but next time we will stay longer!

Ons asems was weggeslaan met die natuurskoon. Die huis was baie netjies en skoon en daar was regtig goed deurdagte items. Stofie, mikrogolf, yskas - alles gas en sonpanele. Heeltyd krag. Gasvrou was so vriendelik. Kom beslis weer.

Dit was meer as wat ons verwag het. Die internet het nie alles vertel nie!

Keurig. Uitstekende uitsig. Naby genoeg aan Oudtshoorn as jy wil gaan eet of iets moet koop. Geen beurtkrag nie! Pragtige mense wat jou ontvang en bederf! Dit was vier onvergeetlike nagte daar. In stilte onder pragtige sterre. Net jy en die karooveld om jou. Ons beplan aan 'n opvolgbesoek. Daar is so baie om te doen en sien in die omgewing!

Hemel op die platteland.

Ons het later as verwag ingeklok, maar is nogsteeds hartlik verwelkom met 'n vars, warm brood. Die huisie is baie gerieflik ingerig en hulle het baie moeite gedoen om vir ons seuntjie 'n veilige, gemaklike bed te maak. Die uitsig van die veld en berge is asemrowend. Ons het op die plaas gaan rondstap en die natuurskoon vreeslik geniet. Vir seker 'n bederf om by hul te bly en ons sal vir seker weer daar bly in die toekoms.

Heaven in the countryside.

We checked in later than expected, but were still warmly welcomed with fresh, warm bread. The house is very comfortably furnished and they put a lot of effort into making a safe, comfortable bed for our boy. The view of the field and mountains is breathtaking. We went for a walk around the farm and really enjoyed the scenery. Definitely a treat to stay with them and we will definitely stay there again in the future.

Pragtige plek met 'n mooi uitsig.

Ons het die twee nagte by Little Canaan Retreat baie geniet. Die plekkie is pragtig, modern en bevat alles wat mens nodig het. Ver genoeg uit die dorp om rus en vrede te hê, maar naby genoeg aan die Oudtshoorn-omgewing se aantreklikhede. Die varsgebakte brood en plaasmelk was 'n groot bederf. Ons sal beslis weer kom en die plek vir enige iemand aanbeveel.

Ek wil net graag sê dat dit op die web se blad duidelik sê dat daar slegs beperkte Wi-Fi is. A.g.v. die wêreldbeker rugby het ek wel vir julle ekstra data opgesit en weer in die namiddag, lank voor die rugby, toe jy gesê het dit is klaar, het ek weer opgesit. Ek is jammer as dit nie genoeg was nie. Ek is ook jammer dat die stort 'n probleem was, ek was nie in kennis gestel nie, so ek kon nie die probleem probeer regstel nie. Ek gaan graag die ekstra myl vir my gaste en vra dus om verskoning vir enige ongerief. Vriendelike groete, Barbara

Rustig en verkwikkend.

Ons het 'n heerlike naweek by Little Canaan Retreat geniet. Die eienaar is vriendelik, gasvry en 'n ware verteenwoordiger van die omgewing en sy genietinge. Boonop het sy ons bederf met vars brood, melk, eiers en beskuit. Die aandwind aan die einde van 'n warm somersdag tesame met die bykans romerige uitsig oor die vallei is verkwikkend. Wat meer wil 'n mens hê?

Julle plekkie is baie netjies met alles wat ons nodig gehad het was en meer. Almal praat altyd van Karoo gasvryheid, maar by julle het ons dit verseker ervaar. Almal wat wil ervaar wat ware Karoo gasvryheid is besoek beslis Little Canaan Retreat, julle sal nie spyt wees nie. Karoo-gasvryheid op sy beste. Noord-Kaap-groete.

Feel like you are at your own home.

Barbara, thank you for the wonderful few days that we were able to use your overnight accommodation. It was so nice to be in nature like this, no noise just the farm sounds around you. Your place is very neat with everything we needed, laundry and more. Everyone always talks about Karoo hospitality, but we certainly experienced it with you. Anyone who wants to experience true Karoo hospitality should definitely visit Little Canaan Retreat, you won't regret it. Karoo hospitality at its best. Northern Cape greetings.

Wow! Ek het iets beleef van die Karoo en daarop verlief geraak.

Vanaf die eerste kontak met die eienares tot die dag nadat ons terug gekeer het, was ons behandel soos ou vriende, met warm liefde. Die plekkie is perfek ingerig en uitgelê. Ons het niks nodig gehad of kort gehad nie, net klere en kos. Die uitsig is asemrowend en die sterreprag in die aand is iets om te beleef. Ek het lanklaas soveel gasvryheid beleef.

Wow! I experienced something of the Karoo and fell in love with it.

From the first contact with the owner until the day after we returned, we were treated like old friends, with warm affection. The place is perfectly furnished and laid out. We didn't need or lack anything, just clothes and food. The view is breathtaking and the starry splendor in the evening is something to experience. I have not experienced such hospitality in a long time.

Heerlik stil en rustige plaas gevoel met 'n pragtige uitkyk, maar steeds gerieflik naby Oudtshoorn indien jy iets nodig het of kinders vir 'n uitstappie wil neem.

Baie vriendelike eienaars wat beslis die ekstra myl gaan. Ons het vreeslik lekker gekuier.

Ons het net een aand daar oorgeslaap, as ons geweet het wat 'n wonderlike plekkie dit was, sou ons definitief nog so paar ekstra dae oorgebly het gedurende ons reis.

Dit was regtig een hemelse ervaring vir ons almal in die groep. Die gasvrou is die mees vriendelike persoon wat ons dadelik tuis laat voel het en was dit asof sy familie kon weess. Uiters behulpsaam en die kamers en beddens was tog te fraai en gemaklik. Die uitsig vandaar oor die berge en vallei is prentjiemooi en die nagstilte was wonders. Baie beslis 'n plek wat ons weer na sal terugkeer as ons weer in die omgewing kom kuier.

We only spent one night there, if we had known what a wonderful place it was, we would definitely have stayed a few extra days during our trip.

It was really one heavenly experience for all of us in the group. The hostess is the most friendly person who immediately made us feel at home and was as if she were family. Extremely helpful and the rooms and beds were too beautiful and comfortable. The view from there over the mountains and valley is picture perfect and the night silence was wonderful. Definitely a place we will return to if we are in the area again.

We spend the weekend and loved our stay at Little Canaan. The cottage is newly built, cozy decorated, simply furnished but equipped with all you need. The view from the cottage is amazing! You can go for a walk, enjoy the peacefulness, visit the ostrich farms, Oudtshoorn or drive the Swartberg Pass. The host is very friendly. We felt welcome immediately finding freshly baked bread, herbs, eggs, milk, coffee waiting for us.

Ons het een nag oorgeslaap. Ons is verras met melk en eiers in die yskas, 'n heerlike brood op die tafel en hout reg vir braai. Ons het net daar braaipakkies gekoop en kon heerlik eet en die pragtige uitsig geniet. Ons is aangenaam verras. Sal definitief weer gaan.

Hospitable people. Beautiful surroundings.

We slept over one night. We were surprised with milk and eggs in the fridge, a delicious bread on the table and wood ready for barbecue. We bought braai packs right there and were able to eat deliciously and enjoy the beautiful view. We are pleasantly surprised. Will definitely go again.

A warm welcome with lovely thoughtful treats left for us.

Brand new accommodation which is simply divine. The warm welcome and lovely treats made a wonderful first impression. Barbara is a fantastic host and we had all we needed to enjoy our stay in their brand new accommodation! Well done!

Absolute juweeltjie, heerlik gebly.

Alles was netjies, skoon en in werkende toestand. Die gasvrou was vriendelik en het ons ontvang en nodige info verskaf. Die eiers, melk, beskuit en koekies was 'n absolute bederf en verrassing. Alhoewel ons dit glad nie verwag het van die instelling nie, is hierdie tipe ekstra aandag aan detail die tipe ding wat ons as gaste sal bybly. Die sonsondergang en sonsopkoms is asemrowend en die uitsig onverbeterlik. Sal enigeen aanbeveel om Little Canaan te besoek. Ons het net 1 aand oorgebly, maar sou selfs langer kon vertoef het indien tyd aan ons kant was. Regtig die moeite werd en sal weer in Gwarriebos oorbly. Dankie vir jul gasvryheid.

Absolute gem, lovely stay.

Everything was neat, clean and in working order. The hostess was friendly and received us and provided necessary information. The eggs, milk, biscuits and cookies were an absolute treat and surprise. Although we did not expect this at all from the establishment, this type of extra attention to detail is the type of thing that will stick with us as guests. The sunset and sunrise are breathtaking and the view unbeatable. Would recommend anyone to visit Little Canaan. We only stayed 1 night, but could have stayed even longer if time was on our side. Really worth it and would stay again in Gwarriebos. Thank you for your hospitality.

Fantastiese resensie, baie dankie. Ja, ons ligging is bietjie uit die pad uit, maar dit is juis wat dit so rustig en vreedsaam maak. Rakende die veiligheid, hier is absoluut geen misdaad in enige vorm nie, maar ek kan verstaan dat mense veiliger sal voel met staalhekke en veiligheids omheinings, gelukkig is dit nie hier nodig nie.
