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.

Hi JP! Baie dankie dat jy die tyd geneem het om 'n resensie te gee. Ek waardeer dit. Ek is bly julle het dit geniet hier by ons. 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

Calm and invigorating.
We enjoyed a lovely weekend at Little Canaan Retreat. The owner is friendly, hospitable and a true representative of the area and its delights. In addition, she spoiled us with fresh bread, milk, eggs and biscuits. The evening breeze at the end of a hot summer day together with the almost creamy view of the valley is invigorating. What more could one want?

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! 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.

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.

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.
