We spent the night there and had a great time with the hospitable owner. The reviews I read were correct. The silence is incredible, painfully neat and the hospitality is incredible. Wish we could have stayed a little longer. And enjoyed the mutton we bought.

Received very hospitably. Lovely fire place.
Have a good time and barbecue, with a nice big fire. Received very hospitably. Clear directions given and kept informed about loadshedding. The dirt road is not bad, but if it rains you won't be able to get through the drift. Just with a detour. The silence really made noise!

We slept over one night and it was truly food for the soul.
The Karoo silence and night sky are incredible. Mari and Oosie really went out of their way to make us feel at home. Many thanks for the help and advice when the river was in flood. We will definitely stay here again! The house is spacious and well equipped. The rooms are very neat and clean. The house has a lovely large veranda with a braai area where we could hang out until late. The children were very excited to be able to explore the area with their bikes.

Great overnight on the way.
We stayed over one night on the way from Cape Town to Graaff-Reinet on a five-day motorcycle trip. Mari kept us informed of the level of the Gamka River from two days ahead of time and recommended the alternative route, where Oosie received us and guided us over the neighbour's land. The kindness and hospitality is remarkable. Nothing was too much trouble for Mari and Oosie. The cottage is beautifully situated with amazing sunsets and top notch stargazing. The braai wood was enough and the lamb chops and sausage (extra on request) were delicious. The N1 is far enough not to be disturbing and close enough for accessibility. The place and facilities are all that is needed for a self-catering accommodation and everything is extremely neat and clean. Fresh drinking water is provided because the tap water is slightly brackish - for me the tap water was perfectly drinkable. Definitely on our list of places to stay that we will use again.

Nice hot shower. The super-sized fire pit/barbecue on the porch was a great bonus. I highly recommend it. Stephanus Du Toit.

Very neat and excellent, friendly service.
Uitershoek is really one of the neatest and cleanest places we stayed on our road trip. Mari was very friendly and helpful, and was in contact with us right from the very beginning, right after our booking was confirmed. This is appreciated as we knew exactly what the arrangements were and how to get to the place. It is the ideal stopover from Gauteng to Cape Town. All that is not so pleasant is the scrap yard just next to the cottage. But it's clearly been there for decades and certainly not something that can be changed. We will definitely stay there again.

Oasis in a desert.
It is a very clean and tidy well-equipped house in the beautiful Karoo. The hostess knows exactly what is needed for guests to rest well after a long drive. Milk in the fridge, biscuits, cold water in the fridge, matches and flash to start the fire which is already packed. Unbeatable, would definitely stay there again and recommend to friends and family. Thank you very much, very good value for money.
