The unit was clean and tidy and we had a nice stay. However, the unit is very small and cramped for 4 people. The sink in the bathroom was tearing out of the wall and so the taps were spilling water on the bathroom floor. The lighting in the unit was also very dim, especially in the kitchen.

At dinner it was a cozy get-together with a fireplace where Ancerene and Awie spend time together. The farm is a flower sensation and lovely to stay there. The location is ideal for driving around and seeing other flower areas. We can't wait to visit again. Appreciate the WhatsApp communication before check-in.

We didn't go for a walk because it was a rainy weekend, but we definitely would if the weather was sunny. In the wet weather it was beneficial to drive a pickup on the dirt roads. Very glad we could see that side of the world when everything is so beautifully green.

Last stop after a business trip to the Northern Cape.
We stopped here on the way back from Springbok. Perfect. At the foot of the Gifberg, it offers great cycling options. A nice 30km route if time is short, or a 65km route over and around the mountain which I will surely do next time. Of course, there are also shorter routes on the farm for those who don't want to walk that far. Nice walking options if your bike is not nearby. We will definitely go back to take pictures in the starry night. The friendly reception and great service was welcome after a long day. The farm breakfast is certainly the right way to start the new day. We look forward to our next visit to the farm. Thank you.

Maskam Guest Farm is the ideal overnight stay that we would love to book again in the future. The reception by Ancarene was warm and friendly, and the farm breakfast they offer is carefully prepared, tasty and rounded off with rooibos tea grown on the farm. The Mountain Goose unit where we spent the night was very well furnished and we were able to enjoy a glass of wine while our little fire burned with the sun casting its rays over the Maskam and Gif mountains.

Soul renewing.
We stayed in Suikerbekkie and it was very neat, spacious and fully equipped for 2 people. The bed and chairs were also very comfortable and not squishy. The wind was blowing terribly but we could still lie on the bed and look at the mountains and also sit on the easy chairs inside and still be able to see the beautiful mountains/surroundings. It was incredibly peaceful and soul renewing. We also felt very safe on the farm. We had a 2-course dinner on Friday night and breakfast on Saturday and Sunday mornings in the restaurant and the food was delicious. Bonus was being able to buy delicious lamb chops from Awie to grill yourself. We also bought some of the jam that was available in the accommodation and it is delicious! Many thanks to Awie and staff for incredible kindness and hospitality that made our stay extremely pleasant. We will definitely visit again and take the kids with us to enjoy the freedom.

Well laid out with privacy in mind. The family makes you feel right at home - their son welcomed me on my second visit when Ancarene and her husband were not at home. Friendly staff, very clean, beautiful view, nice hiking trail, lovely shower, comfortable bed, DStv with sports channels, good braai wood (at a very reasonable price). 20 sheep and some cattle in front of the porch in the morning and evening was a bonus. If they add covered parking I'm moving in permanently!

Everything was clean and tidy and we were fully informed about the operation of the gas stove, as well as attractions in the area. Unfortunately, it was foggy the next morning and we couldn't visit the sights so we continued our journey. We would stay there again anytime and hopefully then be able to see the sights.

Only stayed one night and it was very pleasant. We will visit again, but during the flower season.
It was a wonderful experience to be able to spend the night literally almost in the shadow of the Gifberg. Just a shame we didn't check in until after sunset and in the process missed the red glow of the setting sun on the mountain. The accommodation is neat and well equipped with a delicious braai area on the covered porch. The breakfast on the veranda was a hit. None of the bedside lights in the one bedroom worked. It's a very disappointing experience when you crawl into bed full of anticipation with an interesting book and then you can't read. The bathroom/toilet door latch did not work at all. These are minor irritations that are totally unnecessary.

We were kindly received and the hostess showed us our unit and gave us information about the area as well. There is also an information sheet in the unit that gives a lot of additional information. On the comfortable footpath there are many special plants to be seen and when we visited there were also early spring flowers after the recent rain. The sunsets are also exceptional, especially when the late sun falls on the mountain ridges. We ordered dinner once and it was very nice. We would love to go there again to get away from the city and to be able to enjoy the silence and clean air while being comfortably housed.

The wonderful place is not easy to find and you have to drive almost 10 km of gravel road. The drive was worth it and we were surprised to find the two cute tandem houses on the farm. There is really everything you need, even an air conditioner. There is a notice in the house that you have to get his 'remote' from the office for R40 per day. It's a bit harsh as they have a solar generator just behind the houses. Wonderfully peaceful place, it's just you, nature and mountains around you. In the evening you sit outside under a sky full of stars. It was very windy but on the seat outside you sit out of the wind.

The directions to the farm is not ideal and the GPS didn't want to work with us - I recommend that they include a detailed description of the route to make it clear. Accommodation was comfortable, everything clean and Dianne made a delicious breakfast and brought it to the house - big treat! I think it is worth it to stay longer and experience Van Rhynsdorp.

She showed us where we live and made us feel comfortable. The view from the unit took our breath away. The nature and bird life is really something special. The unit is well furnished and tidy. The book with the farm's story, as well as all the things to do in the area was a nice read! It was also wonderful to be able to braai on the stoep. Look, I've never seen so many stars! We admired ourselves with a cold Amarula in hand. Maskam Guest Farm is a must in and out of season!

The only negative of our stay at Maskam is that it was too short. We were actually just looking for a place to spend the night halfway between Kakamas and the Cape. The hospitality, tranquility and the cottage at Maskam were of outstanding quality. The breakfast we received from the landlady's kitchen could actually be classified as "comfort food" and hopelessly too much for us to finish. Next visit to Maskam will definitely be longer!

We were warmly received by Ancarene and she informed us what there is to see in the area. The Berggans is a well-equipped, neat little house away from the others and it was lovely to sit on the veranda and see the beautiful mountains in front of you. It was full moon this weekend and what an experience to see it come out from behind the Maskaberg and light up the earth! It makes you realize again that the mountains are not man-made and you feel closer to your creator. I would recommend anyone to recharge their batteries at the Maskam Guest Farm and would definitely go there again. I pray, hope and trust that the necessary rain will soon fall on the farm and in the district as well so that the fields can turn beautifully green again because then it will be a paradise!

Nice cozy stay.
We were received very kindly and shown the ropes. The house (Klaas Skaapwagter) has room for 6 people but I would say max 4 people will be able to stay there comfortably. The pool is very nice and I liked the idea of buying homemade products there. Everything was very nice and will definitely sleep there again.

Baie dankie vir jou positiewe resensie en julle ondersteuning in ons plaas produkte. Die Klaas Skaapwagter huisie is dalk bietjie beknop as dit vol geboek is met net volwassenes maar dit werk lekker met gesinne met kinders. Ons sien uit om julle weer te ontvang as gaste!

We just wanted to switch off - and we could!
A private splashpool at the house is all that's needed to make this absolutely perfect for the summer evenings. There's a swimmingpool, but it's close to the homestead. Other than that we went for walks on the farm and had time to just 'be'. The sunsets that colour the Maskam mountains are lovely. Since we were there in November Orion rose from behind the Maskam mountains at sunset every day. Soulfood.

We had nice walks on the farm with our 2 doggies and we drove up Gifberg Pass to the beautiful view!

We got hot!
We rested very well, but the heat was a big problem for us because we were not used to the weather. I missed air conditioning terribly, but I think we came at the wrong time of the year. If I can make a suggestion it is to put a closet in the master bedroom. We had a problem with storage space for our clothes. Luckily we don't have children and we could pack our clothes on the bed in the next room. But a larger family staying for a few days may have a problem. The fridge is hopelessly too small if you are staying for more than a night. Especially with the heat, nothing out of the fridge lasts more than a day, and then you have to drive into town every day to buy fresh stuff.

If tranquility is your thing, this one works.
All pleasant. Fireplace inside for the winter months could add value. Although you are not there to watch TV, the position of the TV is too high on the wall. I would have preferred a more robust grill.

The location is fantastic. The drive up to Gifberg was very pleasant and surprising. The museum with the green bus is cute.

Die pragtige omgewing en die rustigheid van die verblyf was sommer net lekker na 'n lang dag in die motor. Ek sal weer van hul gebruik maak in die toekoms.

The beautiful surroundings and the tranquility of the accommodation were just nice after a long day in the car. I will use them again in the future.
Friendly hospitality greeted us and we sat delightfully on the porch and visited with the Maskaberg like a giant painting in front of us and nature's chorus cheering up the farm silence. I can confidently recommend them to those who like a quiet getaway. Our visit was hopelessly too short and will book longer in the future and explore the area.

The cottage is very well laid out and furnished. The service provided was completely beyond any expectations. The hostess Ancarene even went so far as to arrange tires for my car after mishaps on the mountain pass.

A peaceful atmosphere and beautiful surroundings with a nice view of the mountain.
It was our first trip with a 4x4 and also our first flower tour. Everything went well and we drove almost all the routes to see the beautiful flowers. It was an experience and we were able to see all the interesting things... from flowers, succulents, rock formations, beautiful trails and roads with breathtaking waterfalls.
