Baie rustig met die mooiste sterre-hemel en natuur. Braai met 'n view.

Very peaceful with the most beautiful starry sky and nature. Grill with a view.
If you are looking for a quiet off the grid break, Oppieplaas is the place. It was clean and tidy. The nature and starry sky are special. We only stayed one night and would definitely recommend it to others. It is very basic so if you are looking for a 5 star break this is not the place. It is located close to Prince Albert and right at the entrance to the Swartberg Pass.

Lovely place.
What a little gem! From the outside, apart from the beautiful view, it looked nothing special, but open the door and voila! Cuddly and comfortable, very cutely laid out with comfortable seating and bed. Kitchen has everything needed and the windows on either side of the cottage make it light and cheerful inside. We would easily recommend this place to others. Just remember, no phone reception or WiFi signal available.

Neat and peaceful place to relax.
Small but clean and tidy, ideal for 2 people. From the nice large porch with braai area you have a beautiful view of the mountains. Good resting place because there is no WiFi and no cell phone signals.

Pleasant, just sorry about the hot water problem.
Pleasant place and very peaceful. Neat and clean. Unfortunately the gas hot water system was not working properly and so there was no hot water. However, I believe this was a small problem that can be fixed. As there is no mobile phone reception, owners could not be contacted. Nevertheless, we had a nice stay for the one night.

Beautiful scenery.
Nice and private with a beautiful view every day. Really enjoyed the walking trails on the farm with all the beautiful rare plant species! People who go there just have to realize that it's the Karoo and water is scarce, so don't expect a luxurious shower experience. The house has everything you need. If you want to downsize and rest this is the place!

Spacious, well equipped and tidy. Gas geyser for the shower somewhat problematic.
Geyser's water was boiling, if you then added some cold, the geyser turned off. The volume and temperature can be set on the geyser itself, but only saw this after the time.

Great place to just become human again!
We really enjoyed the weekend at Oppieplaas. Andre was so friendly and hospitable, made us feel like family right away. The house is beautifully renovated, neat finish and there is everything you need. The Jacuzzi outside was a fantastic relief from the hot Karoo sun. The silence gives you a chance to become human again. Conveniently located close to Prince Albert and the surrounding wine farms. Nice excursion also to "O for Olive", with a tour, olive tasting and lunch there. Andre regularly made sure everything was ok and that we didn't have any problems. It is definitely value for money!

We were just unhappy about the water, hot water is just too cold and very weak. So much so that we didn't shower the next morning, because you get colder when you shower, if you don't shower. Furthermore, the place was very clean and tidy.

Oppieplaas is 'n besonderde plekkie en die "Gouwsies" is ongelooflik gasvry en vriendelik. Jy voel sommer welkom asof jy familie is. Die eenheid is skoon, gerieflik, rustig en privaat. 'n Kein stukkie 'hemel' in die Karoo.

A piece of quiet paradise.
What a lovely place to stay. We stayed there for 3 nights and will definitely go back again. André and Louise warmly welcomed us and immediately made us feel at home. For us they are now Uncle André and Aunt Louise. The cottage itself is secluded and private. It was clean and tidy and there was no shortage of anything. The kitchen is well equipped, the bed is comfortable and the living room very cozy. It really felt like a "home away from home". It's not a luxury boutique, but it's not what we were looking for either. We will definitely be going back during the winter to enjoy a little wine in front of the fireplace. (Go for a visit to the Prince Albert market on a Saturday and buy some of their homemade products - delicious and unique!)
