Beautiful surroundings, nice stay.
I was surprised at how beautiful it is here. The scenery is breathtaking. We had a nice stay, the places are well equipped and tidy. Wilgewandel has a lot to do and you can eat well at the restaurant. It's near Cango caves and Cango Wildlife Sanctuary where you can see crocodiles and other animals.

Wonderfully relaxing and peaceful.
I traveled by motorbike. There was secure parking behind the gate. Unfortunately, the restaurant closes a little early. Already 5 hours. But the owners more than made up for it by packing me food and a fresh salad in a picnic basket that I could take to my room and have a delicious dinner in the privacy of my own wooden deck overlooking the valley and mountains! The room is clean and tidy and there is everything needed to be self-sufficient. Thank you very much for a very relaxing time.

It was an amazing experience and a great stay, I would only replace or add a few things in the kitchen, everything was not there, it was difficult to grill outside in the cold and then no TV, maybe needed for the children. The people there are incredibly friendly and considerate.

Fantastic reception, service and friendly, helpful staff.
Pienaar, the farm manager, made us feel welcome immediately, also the staff. The self-catering units area neat and cozy and has everything you need. Stunning area and enough activities to keep you busy. Cango Caves and Wildlife Ranch is just around the corner for a day or two of adventure. Even though the restaurant closes at 17:00 it isn't an issue, you just have to plan your things accordingly. We will definitely be back if we plan another Karoo holiday. Thanks for outstanding service and friendliness.

I wasn't aware that breakfast isn't included in the less expensive rooms. The room had no window, we had to leave the patio door open during the night. Safety? The restaurant closes at 17:00, too early for a resort! A family with young children will like it though.

Paradise for children.
My family and I slept at Wilgewandel for 2 nights, while we showed our children the Kango Caves and Outshoorn area. Children were ecstatic about the swings, see-saws and animals, especially the camels. The accommodation was very neat. However, it is disturbing if you have slightly noisy neighbors, because the residential units are close to each other. The breakfast, which was included in our stay, was delicious. The fact that it is only served from 8:30 made it impossible for us to have breakfast the second morning, because we already had to hit the road early. (would like to see breakfast available earlier). Furthermore, everything was very nice and the staff were always friendly and helpful.

Ideal for a family, children go out early and spend time with the animals on the premises, it was an adventure for them and a resting place for parents.
Upon our arrival, everyone was friendly and gave us a warm welcome. The staff can't do enough for you. You could approach any person, there was no need to be sent from port to starboard. The accommodation was clean and tidy. Towels were changed every day and wood was provided for the men who wanted to barbecue.

Very hot and uncomfortable.
The conditions were not as I expected, but that's not Wilgewandel's fault, I should have done better research: It was very hot and only a roof fan did not cool. A cot for my baby was too small and low, he wanted to climb over the top and not sleep. It's a one room cottage - would have preferred more than one room for kitchen and bedroom.
