We enjoyed braaiing with other guests that night. Lovely people and village!

Lovely and peaceful place to stay. The hostess and her husband are very friendly. The nature is beautiful!

Wat 'n fonds!

Al wat jy nodig het, aangevul met warm gasvryheid. Beslis die plek om te bly vir blomme kyk in Namakwaland.

Regte oase!

Die gasheer en -vrou gaan uit hul pad uit om jou lekker te laat bly. Die gemeenskaplike kombuis is puik ingerig en saans se braai is 'n heerlike hoogtepunt. My voorstel is: asb. 'n skuifdeur wat privaatheid kan gee tussen die badkamer en slaapkamer.

Real oasis!

The host and wife go out of their way to make your stay enjoyable. The communal kitchen is superbly equipped and the evening's braai is a delicious highlight. My suggestion is: please. a sliding door that can provide privacy between the bathroom and bedroom.

Heerlik.

Ons is vriendelik ontvang. Lekker gekuier. Alles was goed ingerig. Linda en Raymond het 'n heerlike vuur gemaak waaraan die gaste kon saambraai of as jy alleen wil braai, kan jy voor jou plek braai.

Rustige plek waar tyd stilstaan.

Die aanvanklike frustrasie met die kommunikasie was nie so lekker. Was verbaas met die hele setup en kombuisgeriewe. Baie beter as wat foto's op die blad vertoon. Lekker gekuier die aand. Ons het vir 2 aande bespreek, maar kon net een aand bly. Het afstand onderskat. Die beddens was skoon en gerieflik. Ons sal weer die plek oorweeg sou ons in die rigting gaan. Aanwysings was goed.

Quiet place where time stands still.

The initial frustration with the communication was not so nice. Was surprised with the whole setup and kitchen facilities. Much better than the photos on the page show. Have a good time in the evening. We booked for 2 nights but could only stay one night. Underestimated distance. The beds were clean and comfortable. We would consider the place again should we go in the direction. Directions were good.

'n Oasis in die mooiste vlaktes.

Hierdie spesiale plek moet eintlik nie vergelyk word met ander plekke nie. Dit was soos om tuis te gaan by ou vriende. Silwerskoon, oulik ingerig, lekker sentraal geleë en die gemeenskaplike saam braai saans was 'n hoogtepunt. Ons het baie welkom gevoel en regtig lekker gebly.

'n Baie unieke ervaring in die middel van "niks", maar ook in die middel van "baie".

Die kamers is baie basies en klein, maar dit het nie ongerief veroorsaak nie. Daar is 'n heerlike kombuis, stoep en braai-area waar al die gaste saam kos gemaak, gekuier het en wenke vir blommekyk uitgeruil het. Dit was baie spesiaal. Linda en Raymond was baie behulpsaam en het in almal se behoeftes voorsien. Voorwaar 'n uitsonderlike oorslaapplek.

Linda and Raymond were very helpful and catered to everyone's needs. Truly an exceptional place to stay.

Very friendly, efficient hosts. Nothing was too much trouble.

It felt remote but at the crossroads to many interesting places inland and on the coast. Interesting conversion of a Dutch Reformed church campus. The tiny rooms looking into the garden are pleasant. Linda and Ray make the stay memorable - nothing is too much trouble for them. The shared kitchen is very well equipped and spick and span. Definitely a place for the more adventurous tourist. Would recommend to friends who don't need frills! Thank you Linda and Ray.

Tussen niks en nêrens. Weggesteek na lang grondpad se mooi natuur en bergreekse.

Die plekkie is pure 4x4 of kampeeravonturier se droom oornagplekkie. Alles basies is daar. Baie lekker plekkie as 'n groep daar arriveer vir oornag, want eienaars kweek 'n saamkuier om die tafel en braaier. Gemeenskaplike kombuis en braaier saam eienaars en almal wat oornag by Soebatsfontein Guest Lodge. Elke oornageenheid is net vir 2 persone geskik met 'n badkamer. Dankie vir die eienaars om vinnig plan te kon maak met aankoms, en 'n deur vir die badkamer te kon reël. Net die voorste eenhede het eie braaiers, maar die agterste eenhede deel 'n boma-braaier gesamentlik. Kamers is teenaan mekaar so is nie baie klankdig nie, so as jy baie mooi luister dan hoor jy jou buurman snork as hy 'n baie harde snorker is. Laat my terugdink en verlang na ons skooldae se kampavonture. Die heel beste was om van selfoon en sein onbeskikbaar te wees, want kon behoorlik afsny en rus sonder enige tegnologie om mens. Perfek vir my, want kon die mooi sterre kyk en natuur en stilte geniet, elke minuut.

Between nothing and nowhere. Tucked away after long dirt road's beautiful nature and mountain ranges.

The place is a pure 4x4 or camping adventurer's dream stopover. Everything basically is there. Very nice place if a group arrives there for the night, because owners cultivate a gathering around the table and braai. Communal kitchen and braai with owners and everyone staying overnight at Soebatsfontein Guest Lodge. Each overnight unit is only suitable for 2 persons with a bathroom. Thank you to the owners for being able to plan quickly upon arrival, and to be able to arrange a door for the bathroom. Only the front units have their own grills, but the rear units share a boma grill collectively. Rooms are facing each other so are not very soundproof, so if you listen very carefully you will hear your neighbor snoring if he is a very loud snorer. Makes me think back and long for our school days camping adventures. The very best was being unavailable from cell phone and signal, because could properly cut off and rest without any technology around. Perfect for me, because I could look at the beautiful stars and enjoy nature and silence, every minute.

Vriendelike ontvangs en skoon, maar teleurstellende verblyf.

Kamers is baie klein, bed met bedliggies geen plek vir stoel. Klein badkamer sonder deur geen privaatheid. Word as gaste-suite geadverteer! Mens word mislei deur beskrywing. Geen seep. Koud! Prys is meer as mens verwag vir sulke basiese akkommodasie.

Soebatsfontein ervaring was uniek, maar nie so positief as wat ons verwag het nie.

Die geriewe was netjies, maar die kamers is baie klein. As jy woelige en raserige bure het wat wel in ons geval was is dit baie steurend. Sal graag basiese geriewe in eenheid wou het soos 'n ketel, want die gemeenskaplike kombuis is 'n risiko in die Covid-tyd waarin ons nou is. Verder was daar nie basiese goed soos 'n wasbakprop en ekstra toiletpapier nie. Tydens ons verblyf was daar 'n kragonderbreking. Met die kragonderbreking was daar geen warm water alhoewel daar gasverwarmers is vir die water - vreemd. 'n Kragwekker is aangeskakel, maar vir baie kort periodes wat nie eintlik gehelp het nie. Dit was een van die duurste fooie wat ons betaal het tydens ons besoek aan die Namakwaland met die minste geriewe.

Soebatsfontein experience was unique, but not as positive as we expected.

The facilities were neat, but the rooms are very small. If you have rowdy and noisy neighbors, which was the case in our case, it is very disturbing. Would have liked basic facilities in unit such as a kettle as the communal kitchen is a risk in the Covid times we are in now. Furthermore, there were no basic things like a sink plug and extra toilet paper. During our stay there was a power outage. With the power outage there was no hot water although there are gas heaters for the water - strange. A power generator was switched on, but for very short periods which didn't really help. This was one of the most expensive fees we paid during our visit to the Namaqualand with the fewest facilities.

Dankie vir jou terugvoer daar is klankdigte isolasie in die plafon geïnstalleer. Gaste huis is nie deur ons ontwikkel nie dus kon ons nie veel aan die grote van die kamers doen nie, ons hou dit eenvoudig om als in die kamers te pas. Kragonderbrekings is deel van Suid-Afrika. Ons is beslis nie die duurste in Namakwaland nie met die minste geriewe nie.

A great experience.

Thank you, Raymond and Linda, for a different lodge experience. We were a little apprehensive about cooking in the communal kitchen but it turned out such fun. People of all ages, from all walks of life, sharing the space and their experiences of the day. It was great having you around to share your knowledge of the area with us.

'n Uitsonderlike vriendelike kuier in 'n gesellige atmosfeer ver van alles.

Die besondere wyse waarop die selfbediening uit 'n sentrale kombuis en leefarea aangebied word, is iets besonders en anders as die normale selfbedieningplekke. Dit maak dat daar vriende gemaak word met die ander besoekers en die eienaars en skep 'n aangename en ontspanne atmosfeer. Die liggiing, maak dat jy elke dag in 'n ander rigting die blommeprag kan gaan besigtig.

An exceptionally friendly visit in a cozy atmosphere far from everything.

The special way in which the self-service is offered from a central kitchen and living area is something special and different from the normal self-service places. This means that friends are made with the other visitors and the owners and creates a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere. The location means that every day you can go in a different direction to view the beauty of the flowers.

Die hele opset is baie oulik - daar heers 'n gesellige atmosfeer en die plekkie is ideaal as blommekyk op jou to-do lysie is.

Gemoedelikheid, een met die natuur, die gees van Namakwaland.

Hierdie gastehuis is slegs gedurende die blommeseisoen oop. Dit bied 'n mens 'n verblyfplek wat pas in die gees van die landskap: eenvoud maar nie minderwaardig, gemoedelike saamsyn met ander gaste by die braai en gemeenskaplike kombuis (wat besonder goed toegerus is), 'n nagrus in stilte in 'n klein dorpie met vriendelike en vreedsame inwoners. Hier word 'n mens deel van die landskap. En Soebatsfontein is perfek geleë om die park na alle kante toe te besigtig. Die paaie is soos die landskap - grof, maar voertuie met voldoende grondvryhoogte kan dit hanteer. Die kombinasie van Soebatsfontein en die Guest Lodge bied 'n unieke verblyfervaring vir mense wat nie dink dat 5-ster-akkommodasie die doel van 'n reis is nie.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Calmness, one with nature, the spirit of Namaqualand.

This guest house is only open during the flower season. It offers one a place to stay that fits in with the spirit of the landscape: simplicity but not inferior, friendly company with other guests at the braai and communal kitchen (which is particularly well equipped), a night's rest in silence in a small village with friendly and peaceful inhabitants. Here one becomes part of the landscape. And Soebatsfontein is perfectly situated to view the park in all directions. The roads are like the landscape - rough, but vehicles with sufficient ground clearance can handle it. The combination of Soebatsfontein and the Guest Lodge offers a unique accommodation experience for people who do not think that 5-star accommodation is the purpose of a trip.

Dankie Johann. As mense buite seisoen by ons wil oornag moet hulle net voortydig met ons kontak maak om te hoor of ons op Soebatsfontein is. Groepe wat buite seisoen wil kom is ook welkom, kontak ons net voortydig sodat ons alles reg kan kry.

Pragtige plek met vriendelike eienaars.

Na die blommeprag-rit was hierdie oornag eenvoudig net lekker en gerieflik. Skoon, netjies, als wat nodig is en een van die lekkerste nagruste ooit! Ongelukkig of dalk gelukkig, is MTN nie beskikbaar nie, so geen sein nie.

After the flowery ride, this overnight stay was simply nice and comfortable. Clean, tidy, everything you need and one of the nicest nights sleep ever! Unfortunately or perhaps fortunately, MTN is not available, so no signal.

A very pleasant surprise in a remote area.

We did not know what to expect but had a lovely stay at Soebatsfontein. The owners were very friendly and helpful. The road from Kamieskroon is only 50km, but takes long due to gravel mountain passes not always in good condition. You share a communal kitchen, but very clean and well equipped. You have to take everything you need, as there is no shop (incl wood, ice etc.) A big advantage is the back entrance to Skilpad Flower Resort is at their doorstep. A cool place!

Oasis in the middle of nowhere.

Arrived to this hidden gem after a long day of road trip. Met the super friendly owners who explained the setup and showed us to our rooms. Rooms are small but have everything you need, the communal kitchen is neat and organised, the evening for a lack of a better word "kuiering" with the owners was fantastic. We would definitely come back!

Rustig in natuur. Lekker fietsry-geleenthede. Huislik.

Naby nasionale park, mooi passe en naby see. Goeie kans om van hier kus te verken. Veral McDougallsbaai besonders. Geologie van Concordia/Okiep/Springbok is besonders. Blomme hier mooier as suid by Clanwilliam. Kom natuurlik in koppies en rotse voor wat mooi natuurtonele verseker.
