Buite stap in die stilte van 'n goedopgepaste Karoo plaas.

By Rietfontein Selfsorg het ons elke dag buite geniet van die ruimte en stilte met ons besige kinders. Onder andere het Joseph die seuns gewys waar om skerpioene te vind in die koppies. Op die grasperk kon ons bal speel. 'n Verfrissende afwesigheid aan die stad se afleidinge, gee ruimte vir tyd met mekaar, bordspelle en die bewondering van die deur God geskepte natuur.

Walk outside in the silence of a well-appointed Karoo farm.

At Rietfontein Self Care we enjoyed the space and silence outside every day with our busy children. Among other things, Joseph showed the boys where to find scorpions in the cups. We could play ball on the lawn. A refreshing absence from the city's distractions, gives space for time with each other, board games and the admiration of nature created by God.

Fantastiese stilte wegbreek.

Ongelooflike lekker tyd op die plaas gehad. Die stilte is oorverdowend en die gasvryheid van beide was ongelooflik. Dit was uit en uit die ideale wegbreek uit die stad en ongelooflike lekker familie tyd sonder onderbreking.

Fantastic quiet getaway.

Had an amazing time on the farm. The silence is deafening and the hospitality of both was incredible. It was absolutely the ideal getaway from the city and incredibly enjoyable family time without interruption.

Waarde vir geld.

Ons het 'n waarde vir geld een nag oorslaap gesoek vir ons reis Kaapstad toe en Rietfontein het nie teleurgestel nie. Joseph en Ilze het ons gasvry ontvang en baie tuis laat voel en ons het die rustigheid van die Karoo terdeë waardeer na 'n lang dag op die pad. Die grondpad tussen Leeu Gamka en die plaas is ook in goeie toestand vir die wat wonder.

Value for money.

We were looking for a value for money one night stay for our trip to Cape Town and Rietfontein did not disappoint. Joseph and Ilze received us hospitably and made us feel very much at home and we thoroughly appreciated the tranquility of the Karoo after a long day on the road. The dirt road between Leeu Gamka and the farm is also in good condition for those wondering.

Regte Karoo-stilte en -gasvryheid.

Lieflike, stil oornagplek, baie mooi en huislik. Voel sommer dadelik tuis en welkom. Joseph en Ilse gaan uit hul pad om verblyf so gerieflik as moontlik te maak, inaggenome die uitdagings met loadshedding. Als wat nodig is. Waaiers, loadshedding-ligte, heerlike tuisgemaakte Karoo-wors te koop om te braai. En koel swembad 'n lieflike lafenis na 'n lang rit en warm dag.

Real Karoo silence and hospitality.

Lovely, quiet place to stay, very nice and homely. Feel right at home and welcome. Joseph and Ilse go out of their way to make accommodation as comfortable as possible, given the challenges with loadshedding. Whatever is necessary. Fans, load shedding lights, delicious homemade Karoo sausage for sale to grill. And cool swimming pool a lovely escape after a long drive and hot day.

Netjiese verblyf na aan Prince Albert.

Rietfontein is 'n regte karooplaas met 'n vriendelike gasheer en gasvrou. Baie stil en rustig. Daar was alles wat 'n mens nodig kan kry en ons kon die karoo-ervaring met eienaar en sy vrou deel. Sal defnitief weer daar gaan bly.

Neat accommodation close to Prince Albert.

Rietfontein is a real karoo farm with a friendly host and hostess. Very quiet and peaceful. There was everything one could need and we were able to share the karoo experience with the owner and his wife. Will definitely stay there again.

Die ligging is van die normale pad af. Dit was pressies wat ek gesoek het.

Kan die beste wegbreek wees wat jy nodig kan hê. Ek was 100% tevrede en sal definitief weer teruggaan. Maar die keer vir 'n week.

Spectacular.

We always wanted to visit the Karoo and get a proper Karoo experience. When we arrived at Rietfontein we had no idea how astonishing the Karoo experience would be. I highly recommend it, we most definitely will be back.

Lekker gebly, geniet stap en ekskursies op plaas, naby genoeg aan Prince Albert indien jy mense of koffie soek.

Sou graag wou geweet het dat die eenheid regs langs/teenaan die hoofhuis is en nie losstaande of elders op plaas nie. Gashere baie vriendelik en behulpsaam.

Nice stay, enjoy walking and excursions on farm, close enough to Prince Albert if you are looking for people or coffee.

Would have liked to know that the unit is right next to/opposite the main house and not detached or elsewhere on the farm. Hosts very friendly and helpful.
