Afsondering.

By Rooiberg kan jy jou verbeel jy is die enigste mens op hierdie planeet. Om jou strek die Karoo in al sy prag; niemand in sig nie. Binne die gerestoureerde huisie is dit knus. Dis mooi gemeubileer. En die eienaars is hartlik en vriendelik. Bly hier vir 'n paar dae en verken die omgewing te voet, soos ons gedoen het. En geniet die stilte.

Isolation.

At Rooiberg you can imagine you are the only person on this planet. Around you stretches the Karoo in all its splendor; no one in sight. Inside the restored house it is cosy. It's nicely furnished. And the owners are warm and friendly. Stay here for a few days and explore the area on foot, as we did. And enjoy the silence.

Hartlike Karoo verblyf.

Pragtige eenheid, ruim, skoon en gerieflik, keurig, smaakvol en onopgesmukt. Die plaasdam was 'n welkome lafenis na die lang pad. Die grondpad na die plaas is mooi en toeganklik vir enige voertuig en as jy gelukkig soos ons is na die reën sien, jy hoe die springbokke in die water baljaar. Ons was hartlik ontvang en afgesien en sal beslis weer hier oornag.

Hearty Karoo accommodation.

Beautiful unit, spacious, clean and comfortable, neat, tasteful and unadorned. The farm dam was a welcome relief after the long road. The dirt road to the farm is beautiful and accessible to any vehicle and if you are lucky like us after the rain, you see the springbok frolicking in the water. We were warmly received and looked after and will definitely spend the night here again.

Ons het baie lekker gekuier. Die huisie is baie netjies en skoon en ons sal dit beslis aanbeveel. Carien en Ockie was baie hulpvaardig en vriendelik, regte Karoogasvryheid.

Die huisie is perfek geleë met skape wat gereeld verbyloop om te gaan drink. Dit gee 'n mens 'n regte plaasondervinding.

Gasheer en gasvrou was baie vriendelik gewees.

Huis was netjies en skoon. Ons het 'n ent gaan stap om omgewing te verken. Enigste fout wat ek kon noem was dat braairooster nie skoon was nie. Die stoep waar ons gebaai het, het lekker tafel en stoele gehad, en mooi uitsig oor die plaas gegee. Dit was heerlike rustige omgewing, en doodstil. Daar is geen selfoonsein of WIFI nie, wat maak dat mens weg is van steurnis, en lekker kan ontspan. Daar is TV.

Host and hostess were very friendly.

House was neat and clean. We went for a walk to explore the surroundings. Only fault I could mention was that the grill was not clean. The veranda where we bathed had a nice table and chairs, and gave a nice view of the farm. It was wonderfully peaceful surroundings, and deathly quiet. There is no cell phone signal or WIFI, which means that one is away from disturbance, and can relax. There is TV.

Ons is met soveel gasvryheid ontvang deur Okkie en Carien. Pragtige plekkie, selfs mooier as op die foto's. Perfekte plekkie vir familietyd. Die stilte en rustigheid is 'n lafenis vir die siel. Mooiste Karoo-ervaring. Sal weer teruggaan, hierdie keer vir langer.

We were a family of five who stayed for 3 days. We thoroughly enjoyed the tranquility and the vastness of the Karoo. The owners are friendly and really helpful.

Wat ‘n fantasties plek met fantastiese mense!

Dit was een van die mooiste en beste vakansies ooit! Ons was daar vir 5 aande en die rustigheid en skoonheid was meer as waarvoor ons kon wens. Die huis en swemdam is ongelooflik gerieflik en mooi. Carien en Ockie het ons so tuis laat voel en aanbevelings gemaak vir roetes op die plaas om te kon verken en plekke om te besoek in die omgewing. Almal behoort hierdie Noord-Kaapse skat te besoek! Hulle het ons ook gehelp met ‘n pap wiel waarvoor ons baie dankbaar is! Ons sal definitief terugkeer.

Goed toegerus, pragtige Karoo-omgewing.

Ons het spesifiek na verblyf op 'n plaas gesoek op pad Kaap toe vir een aand. Die 15 km grondpad (in 'n goeie toestand) word genoem op die inligtings-gedeelte op die webtuiste en het ons nie verras nie. Dit mag dalk ander wat nie grondpad wil ry nie minder goed pas. Die wye oop ruimte rondom die huisie was presies waarna ons gesoek het. Carien en Ockie het ons besonder vriendelik ontvang en moeite gedoen om ons na die eenheid te vergesel. Dit bly beslis op ons lys van baie aangename gastehuise.

Well equipped, beautiful Karoo environment.

We were specifically looking for accommodation on a farm on our way to Cape Town for one night. The 15 km dirt road (in good condition) is mentioned on the information section on the website and did not surprise us. It may not suit others who don't want to drive dirt roads. The wide open space around the cottage was exactly what we were looking for. Carien and Ockie received us particularly kindly and made an effort to accompany us to the unit. It definitely remains on our list of very pleasant guesthouses.

Karoo-stilte.

Tipies ou Karoo-huisie van buite en pragtig binne versier. 3 Slaapkamers met gerieflike kombuis en sitkamer. Lekker braai-area buite met pragtige uitsig en baie Karoo-geluide. Heerlike bed en beddegoed. Alles wat jy nodig het. Ideale verblyf om lekker boek te lees, te stap en net te ontspan. Ons het een nag gebly wat heeltemal te kort was, bly ten minste 2 nagte maar as jy net een nag kan bly gaan in elk geval! Wonderlike gashere! Carien ons gaan definitief weer terug wees vir 'n paar nagte dan kan ons lekker kuier!

Karoo silence.

Typical old Karoo house from the outside and beautifully decorated inside. 3 Bedrooms with comfortable kitchen and lounge. Nice braai area outside with a beautiful view and lots of Karoo sounds. Lovely bed and bedding. Everything you need. Ideal accommodation for reading a good book, walking and just relaxing. We stayed one night which was way too short, stay at least 2 nights but if you can only stay one night go anyway! Wonderful hosts! Carien we will definitely be back again for a few nights then we can have a good time!

Fanstasies! Stil en rustig.

Carien het die huis pragtig gerestoureer en smaakvol gemeubileer. Die linne is van 'n hoë gehalte en die toerusting van baie goeie kwaliteit. Sagte beddegoed laat 'n mens soos 'n droom slaap. Carien en haar man is 'n aangename en vriendelike mense. Volgende keer bly ons beslis vir langer as net een aand. Die stilte en die sterre is hemels.

Fan stations! Quiet and peaceful.

Carien has beautifully restored and tastefully furnished the house. The linen is of a high quality and the equipment of very good quality. Soft bedding makes one sleep like a dream. Carien and her husband are pleasant and friendly people. Next time we will definitely stay for more than just one night. The silence and the stars are heavenly.

Wonderlike gasvryheid van Carien en Ockie in 'n pragtige, stylvol-gemeubileerde, goed toegeruste huisie in die kalmte en stilte van die Karoo het my besoek onvergeetlik gemaak.

Ockie en Carien is fantastiese gasheer en -dame. Hulle kon nie genoeg vir my doen nie en ek het baie gou tuis en op my gemak gevoel. Die huisie is pragtig en stylvol ingerig - eintlik luuks. Dit beskik oor al die nodige fasiliteite vir 'n rustige verblyf. Ek is jammer ek kon net een aand bly en sal definitief in die toekoms weer 'n draai maak en langer bly. Baie dankie aan die Van Schalkwyks!

Wonderful hospitality from Carien and Ockie in a beautiful, stylishly-furnished, well-equipped cottage in the calm and quiet of the Karoo made my visit unforgettable.

Ockie and Carien are fantastic host and hostess. They couldn't do enough for me and I very soon felt at home and at ease. The cottage is beautifully and stylishly furnished - actually luxurious. It has all the necessary facilities for a peaceful stay. I'm sorry I could only stay one night and will definitely return and stay longer in the future. Many thanks to the Van Schalkwyks!

Wonderlike Karoo-verblyf.

Ons het so lekker gebly by Rooiberg Gasteplaas, net spyt dit was so kort gewees. Die kothuis is pragtig ingerig en die gasvrou en gasheer is ongelooflik vriendelik en uiters behulpsaam. Ek beveel hierdie verblyf ten hoogste aan en sal graag weer kom kuier.

A real Karoo farm experience hosted by seasoned guest house hosts!

We unfortunately stayed only one night, but Rooiberg is the real deal if you are looking for a typical Great Karoo farm experience. The farm house was recently renovated with great taste and detail and the hosts welcomed us with typical warm Karoo greetings into their world. Rooiberg Gasteplaas is highly recommended.

Hostess was so accommodating - lovely accommodation.

We had a lovely stay on the farm cottage, all luxuries and necessities provided for. Beautifully and tastefully furnished and our hostess went out of her way to make us feel welcome. Would like to stay longer next time to explore the farm by bicycle, they have tracks to accommodate this. We had our dogs with and they had a ball running freely everywhere. Was great. Thanks.

Wonderful opportunity to experience the Karoo.

I'm so glad that I did this different stop-over, which was a great experience for me, well worth the added time. An isolated Karoo cottage on a farm way out of town in the Norther Cape. I slept with open curtains because the stars were so beautiful and the only sounds were the windmill turning occasionally in the wind, the bleating of sheep and the flying bats. I had time for an evening walk into nature which my dog Toto really loved. Then we sat on the veranda watching the unmatchable Karoo evening cloud formations in the gorgeous sunset. The cottage was pristine and well equipped and an overnight stop didn't do it justice. I will be back with my wife for a longer stay.

Sonsondergang en stilte in die wye Karoo.

Heerlike verblyf, wens ons kon langer bly! Kan nie onthou wanneer laas ek vir so lank geen geluid van enige motor gehoor het nie. Die paar ekstra km wat mens van die hoofpad afdraai, is absoluut die moeite werd. Baie gawe en gasvrye mense, hulle huis is 'n hele entjie weg van die gastehuis, sodat dit voel asof mens die enigste mense op aarde is. Huisie self is goed toegerus en beddens en beddegoed puik.

Sunset and silence in the wide Karoo.

Lovely stay, wish we could have stayed longer! Can't remember the last time I didn't hear any sound from any car for so long. The few extra km that one turns off the main road is absolutely worth it. Very nice and hospitable people, their house is a long way from the guest house, so it feels like you are the only people on earth. The cottage itself is well equipped and the beds and bedding great.

Dis 'n pragtige plek met vriendelike mense. Natuurskoon. 'n Egte Karoo-plaas. Die huis is goed toegerus en waarde vir geld.

Met aankoms het die eienaars ons verwelkom. Vriendelike mense en die huis is goed toegerus. Daar is 3 slaapkamers en toegeruste kombuis. Dis 'n egte Karooplaas en die stilte is ongelooflik. Pragtige uitsig. Dit was vir ons die perfekte oornagbestemming op pad Weskus toe.

Pragtige huisie, veral vir familie!

Ons is aangenaam verras met 'n pragtige, netjiese huisie! Dit is splinternuut en baie gerieflik! Al nadeel is dat dit redelik ver van die grootpad is en dit is op 'n grondpad! Maar moet ook sê die grondpad is baie mooi, selfs vir 'n gewone sedan motor!

We were pleasantly surprised with a beautiful, neat little house! It is brand new and very comfortable! Downside though is that it's quite far from the main road and it's on a dirt road! But must also say that the dirt road is very nice, even for a regular sedan car!
