Style, luxury and history in one package.
I have wanted to stay at the Lord Carnarvon for a long time and am glad that I was finally able to get to that part of the country. The house where we stayed has National Historic Landmark status. Stylish restoration that combines comfort and luxury with respect for the house's history. Nice light, beautiful antique furniture, quality linen, well appointed kitchen. Excellent restaurant (mutton neck recommended), delicious breakfast in another building (the officers' menage), but within walking distance of each other.

Pleasant surprise in the Karoo.
Interesting historical place. Very clean, tidy, comfortable and well equipped. The small container of milk and biscuit with the coffee is a plus. Beautiful decor and we slept well on good king size bed in the studio unit. Dinner at the restaurant was outstanding! We didn't have breakfast. A bottle of cold water for each guest in the fridge is something you can consider.

Comfortable.
Very neat and clean and comfortable. The only hindrance is that there is no breakfast served by the guest house, and because it is a small town without franchises, there is also nowhere else to eat breakfast (and the room also does not have facilities to make your own breakfast not). So just bring your own breakfast like morning porridge or something with you if you want to eat before you drive.

It is truly an oasis for a weary traveller. The antique furniture etc. brings longing to your youth days. The staff went out of their way to help us. Unfortunately, due to time, we could not have breakfast. We ate at the hotel that night, part of a guest house. Met Pieter and his father and had a lovely chat. Dinner useful, food of high quality. Thanks to Pieter and staff.

We recently spent the night in Lord Carnarvon Guesthouse. We were in the back part. Room large with neat furniture. The living room is full of antique furniture. Open plan kitchen with essentials for overnight stays. We enjoyed breakfast in the front house. Delicious food, too much and we took the muffins with us as road food. The indoor parking space was enough for 2 vans with camper vans. We enjoyed dinner about 2 blocks away at the Lord Carnarvon Small Hotel.

The institution is affected by the decline of smaller rural villages.
Strict water restrictions due to drought, and a very noisy environment (perhaps because it was the day after new year) soured our visit somewhat. We left at 03:00 in the morning because we couldn't sleep due to the noise and the prospect of a toilet that wouldn't flush and a shower without water ended the last night of our vacation on a very low note.

A wonderful evening in the mists of yesterday.
If you love history and antique furniture you should not miss this guest house. This is the largest collection of antique furniture, each piece carefully selected, that we have found in a guest house in a long time. The owner Pieter Hoffman went out of his way to make our stay pleasant. Because it was on the 1st of January, we were worried that all eateries would be closed. However, we were able to enjoy a delicious meal at Pieter's restaurant Lord's Kitchen. The breakfast the next morning was phenomenal, a great variety and beautifully presented. Thank you Pieter for sharing the beauty with us.

Location in the center of town with so much street life and street walkers all around, is unacceptable.
Room in main house was good but we were only people in that part. One does not feel safe at all! Also concerned about room and car break-in. Concern about safety in streets. There is no water in town and is limited to two periods a day. Then also have to turn on the pressure pump. At R900 a night, one wants to be safer and have water. Lord's Kitchen Restaurant did not impress at all. You won't go hungry there, but you won't eat well. Overpriced for what you get and where the places are. Nose over for the place really. Instead, choose a town and a nice place in it.

Lord Carnarvon is a gewel in the dull Karoo and is definitely worth the trip. The building is more than 100 years old and is beautifully renovated, and the interior is stylishly decorated with furniture from decades ago. You cannot take your eyes of it. This must have taken months of hard word and it would be stupid to miss it.

It's a beautiful historic guest house with friendly staff.
The only reason why we will not stay in Carnarvon again is the fact that the guest house is directly opposite a church and the church bell rings 24/7 several times every hour. My wife is a light sleeper and the church bell tolled through the still night! Perhaps the people who remain take sleeping pills because the residents no longer hear the bell.

Pleasant surprise - the kind you'll always remember.
You're never sure what to expect, but I can really recommend Lord Carnarvon. I initially booked just for one night as a stopover on the way to Cape Town, but I enjoyed this little place so much that I'm already planning a longer visit. The service is very good and the rooms really neat and clean. The people of the town have a great time, so make sure you visit "Lord's Kitchen" and the "Blikkies Bar". Cell phone reception within the town usually works, but can be intermittent. No mobile phone reception for long distances before and after the town - and in the Karoo between towns in general.
