Thousands of springboks!
The natural beauty is harsh and merciless, but what makes it beautiful and soft are the thousands of springboks, the many beautiful facilities that preserve history and the friendly people. The time was lost there and we didn't think about work for one moment. Thank you very much for a nice place.

Great getaway.
We really enjoyed our 2 days at Rogge Cloof. Don't plan activities in Sutherland, it's quite a distance and would recommend staying in town for a day or so. But, if you're on Rogge Cloof, you don't have to go anywhere. There are so many activities right there. Eben was a very good tour leader and took us to the Cheetahs as well as taking care of the evening's stargazing. Very knowledgeable and friendly.

Had a great time, beautiful surroundings with a nice veld road to the lodge. Game only.
Had a great stay, thank you. Received personal attention from reception. One problem was ladies couldn't use hair dryers due to only solar power. Not proper bedside lights either. Also too few carpets in bedrooms and bathrooms. Furthermore, everything is very neat and well equipped.

Fairytale beautiful.
Friendly, warm welcome. Admin was very quick and then we were on our way to our kayak for the weekend. What a pleasant surprise. Of course, the fireplace was immediately lit and not long after that the biltong soup was hot and the red wine was open. Comfortably furnished. Enough warm blankets for the brrrrr nights. Nice sweet borehole water to drink. Very strong Wi-Fi signal, no problems with it. Top notch customer service. We just wanted to suggest a few things? 1) With respect to the age of the house, we would like to suggest that the windows and the door in the room are sealed more thoroughly. The wind comes in badly and the room gets super cold. The fireplace's heat cannot warm the whole place because of this. 2) From a kitchen perspective. Just one or two more smaller pots for those who want to cook smaller (like for example for 2 people) and then just an extra pan. The sink was a challenge, but we won it. Furthermore, it was super super special, especially when the snow fell and we could enjoy the tranquility and the beauty of nature in such an awesome place. You will definitely see us again and again in the winter.

We were very pleasantly surprised. The accommodation is luxurious and beautifully located. Staff very nice and we really enjoyed the wine tasting, stargazing and walking. Food was delicious prepared by a young, talented chef. We were also able to watch the rugby at the main building which was nice and informal with the staff. Would definitely recommend it to people who like tranquility and beautiful nature.

Unforgettable weekend.
We were taken care of from the moment Sumari welcomed us. Rogge Cloof has an incredible amount to offer. We did the Nature and Fossil Drive, Star Gazing and wine tasting. Cara, who took us on all the trips, knows her story and her enthusiasm is contagious. She went to great lengths (including taking us to see the cheetahs that were at the boma) and ensured that we had an unforgettable weekend.

For the price it was disappointing.
It was snow time and the gas heaters didn't work so we couldn't take a shower that night. We tried again the next morning and it didn't work then either. The unit sleeps 4. We were 3. Friends of ours (two people) wanted to join. We asked if we could bring two extra persons, and were willing to pay for the (one) extra person, but this was not allowed, even though there was more than enough room to accommodate an extra person. We were prepared to bring our own bedding for the extra person etc. This in snow time, when space in Sutherland is very limited. At R4000 per night.

Unexpected Wonder!
Rogge Cloof was an unexpected stroke of luck that struck us. We decided to go to Sutherland just a day before and then decided on Rogge Cloof. This is a fantastic place! The farm is 16 hectares and they are part of the Black Sky Reserve which means that there are no outside lights in the evening and they use solar energy. The people there are fantastic. Rather, it feels like you are visiting good friends. From the reception area where you pick up your keys, it is another 11 km to the cottages where you live. It is dead quiet and you get absolute peace for your soul. There is a lot of wildlife (mostly goats) and many paths that you drive around to see them. The cottages are fantastically equipped, with large windows to be able to experience the surroundings. Breakfast was also included in the rate, which was a pleasant experience. All the staff are very friendly! We are only sorry that we could only stay for one night! We will definitely see Rogge Cloof again soon, but next time it will be for longer!

Dear Michael
Thank you for your review of Rogge Cloof. We appreciate your feedback as it assists us in understanding our clients' expectations and needs.
Although the units have fireplaces, for which we provide a daily supply of wood, we have decided to make gas heaters available to our guests, at a fee for the gas, as some prefer a gas heater to a hot water bottle, especially when they retire to bed. Unfortunately, the weather does not always allow guests to enjoy the full value offered by Rogge Cloof.
Once again, thank you for the kind review and we do hope that you will visit Rogge Cloof again to enjoy all that there is to offer.
Regards
