Lovely views in all directions. Stove provides warmth on the cold nights. Soulful delight! Away from everything and not another person nearby.

Lieflike uitsig na alle kante. Stofie sorg vir hitte in die koue nagte. Sielsalige lekkerte! Weg van alles en nie 'n ander mens naby nie.

Super private, cosy, clean, stunning views! Spectacular view/location! The place was neat and tidy and contained most requirements for a weekend stay! The wind was relentless, which can be expected for this time of the year, but we could stay indoors with a cosy fire and beautiful views.

Incredible views, great location, great escape. Incredible location and really cool accommodation! Frans was so helpful and accommodating, and took us up to Glashuis in his 4x4 (definitely need a 4x4 to get from the farm to Glashuis!).

Phenomenal experience, view and accommodation. A few small things need attention. The location of Glashuis is phenomenal, the stars and view cannot be described with photos. We went in winter, the wind is strong and may bother some, but luckily we know wind so it was not a problem. Fireplace burned the whole time, we took enough wood and lightning. It is very remote so once you are at the top, it is a fair trek to get somewhere, so we enjoyed the solitude. Take enough provisions! Glashuis' ceiling needs some TLC. Bathroom is an experience but part of the adventure for us. Sleeping mattress can be looked at and maybe replaced. Bedding was neat and clean and enough warm blankets. Maybe a spare towel or two would be good. Would highly recommend for 4x4 vehicles only. We drove to the farmhouse with a normal car and in places it was difficult.

Fenominale belewenis, uitsig en verblyf. Paar klein goedjies kort aandag. Glashuis se ligging is fenomenaal, die sterre en uitsig kan nie met foto's beskryf word nie. Ons het in winter gegaan, wind is erg en mag sommige pla, maar gelukkig ken ons wind so dit was nie 'n probleem nie. Kaggel het gebrand heeltyd, ons het genoeg hout en blits geneem. Dis baie afgelee so indien jy eers bo is, is dit 'n redelike trek om êrens te kom, so ons het die solitude geniet. Neem genoeg proviant! Glashuis se plafon kort bietjie TLC. Badkamer is 'n belewenis maar deel van die avontuur vir ons gewees. Slaap matras kan gekyk word om dalk te vervang. Beddegoed was netjies skoon en genoeg warm komberse. Dalk 'n spaar handdoek of twee sal goed wees. Sal sterk aanbeveel vir slegs 4x4 voertuie. Ons het met normale kar tot by die plaashuis gery en op plek plek was dit moeilik.

Safety was a concern, but enjoyable. The resident farmer met us upon arrival and was very friendly and helpful. The upkeep of the glasshouse is not up to standard due to lack of maintenance from the owner. The fireplace insulation was poor and we felt unsafe using the fireplace due to coals shooting back into the ceiling. The house was advertised with a telescope as Sutherland is renowned for star gazing; however, the telescope is broken. Overall, the experience of adventure was great and the kids enjoyed the stay; however, the safety of the house was a concern, especially a fire hazard.

Wonderful escape with stunning views of the valley below. What an incredible spot, you sit right on the border of the Western and Northern Cape at the edge of a cliff with beautiful views of the valley below. Frans was also very helpful, and the place had everything we needed.

Breathtaking Rygeveld. It's hard to describe in words how special this place is. The road from Sutherland to the farm is breathtakingly beautiful. The view of the Glass House, the unspoiled nature. To watch the wind and the cold from a cozy glass case with a nice fire. Hospitality. Quite an experience. We are definitely going back!

Asemrowende Roggeveld. Dis moeilik om in woorde te beskryf hoe spesiaal hierdie plek is. Die pad van Sutherland tot op die plaas is asemrowend mooi. Die uitsig van die Glashuis, die ongereptheid van die natuur. Om die wind en die koue vanuit 'n snoesige glaskas met 'n lekker vuurtjie te aanskou. Gasvryheid. Regtig 'n belewenis. Ons gaan definitief terug!
