It was the best sleep I've had in a long time. We overslept and were almost late to meet our friends. Photos do not accurately describe the place, it is so much more.

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.

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.

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.

It was one of the most beautiful and best vacations ever! We were there for 5 nights and the tranquility and beauty was more than we could have wished for. The house and swimming pool are incredibly comfortable and beautiful. Carien and Ockie made us feel so at home and made recommendations for routes on the farm to explore and places to visit in the area. Everyone should visit this Northern Cape treasure! They also helped us with a flat tire, for which we are very grateful! We will definitely return.

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.

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!

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!
