Calm, cozy, and unforgettable. The location was wonderfully remote, which we truly appreciated—it made for a calm, quiet, and deeply relaxing stay. The cabin itself was cozy and well-equipped with everything we needed in the kitchen. But what really made our experience unforgettable was Fanie, the farmworker. He was absolutely exceptional—kind, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile to make our stay perfect. The owners, too, were warm and welcoming, and their farm (about 30 minutes away) produces the most incredible fresh goods. Altogether, it was a beautiful experience.

Very nice stay, but too little time spent there. Beautiful surroundings that I would love to explore on foot.

Baie lekker gebly, maar te min tyd daar spandeer. Pragtige omgewing wat ek graag te voet sou wou verken.

Beautiful and peaceful place. Far from main road. The Camdeboo Valley is beautiful and we had a lovely overnight stay in the nicely restored and well-equipped cottage. It is quite far from the main road so one just has to be prepared for that.

Pragtige en rustige plek. Ver van hoofpad. Die Camdeboo-vallei is pragtig en ons het heerlik oornag in die mooi gerestoureerde en goed toegeruste huisie. Dit is redelik ver van die hoofpad af so mens moet net daarvoor voorbereid wees.

Too short, too nice, money well spent. Would definitely love to go back again and stay for longer than 2 days. Had the most enjoyable time there, the quality bedding, the old mixed with the old look of the 1820s, the silence of the Karoo, the nice fireplace and enough wood at your disposal, the new vs. the old, the special way of thinking that they planned and carried out.

Te kort, te lekker, money well spent. Sal graag beslis weer teruggaan en vir langer as 2 dae oorbly. Mees lekkerste tyd daar gehad, die gehalte beddegoed, die oud gemeng met die ou weerga van die 1820s, die stilte van die Karoo, die lekker kaggel en genoegsame hout tot jou beskikking, die nuut vs. die oud, die besonderse denkwyse wat hulle beplan en uitgevoer het.

An experience! Absolutely great! While the last wood crackles in the fireplace and the kettle boils again for another cup of peasant comfort, our little man is sleeping on the bed with Parisie and New York. It's freezing outside and although we wanted to barbecue, we just made garlic bread in the fireplace and meat in the pan. It's raining gently and it's dead quiet. All the animals in their pen and us cozy in our little house. It's beautiful here. Something out of a fairy tale. Goats and monkeys that greet you near the gate with forests with colored leaves and long tree trunks with streams that run into a large pond goats and cattle and sheep. To a little chicken chick paw-paw that is slightly flawed. It's 30 km from the road and the rocks and stones stand out high above us! The farm pond is full. Our hearts are full tonight. Full of tranquility. Andre rode his bike like that. The plains and open fields call you closer and your soul becomes peaceful here. Here there is no or only a slight signal. They make goat's milk cheese all here! Everything farm fresh is for sale and our order will arrive tomorrow morning. So on this Good Friday we experienced a piece almost from a Narnia book!

'n Belewenis! Absoluut puik! Terwyl die laaste hout knetter in die kagelvuur en die ketel weer kook vir nog 'n koppie boeretroos lê ons kleinman en slaap saam met Parisie en New York op die bed. Dis yskoud buite en alhoewel ons wou braai het ons toe maar garlic brood in die kaggel gemaak en vleis in die pan. Dit reën saggies en dis doodstil. Al die diere in hul kraal en ons knus in ons huisie. Dis pragtig hier. Iets uit 'n sprokie. Bokkies en apies wat jou naby die hek groet met woude met gekleurde blare en lang boomstamme met reviere wat tot in' n groot dam loop bokke en beeste en skapies. Tot 'n klein hoenderkuiken paw-paw wat effens gebreklik is. Dis 30 km vanaf die pad en die rotse en klippe staan hoog bo ons uit! Die plaasdam is vol. Ons harte is vol vanaand. Vol rustigheid. Andre het so gery met sy fietsie. Die vlaktes en oop velde roep mens nader en jou siel word hier rustig. Hier is geen of slegs effense sein. Hul maak bokmelkaas alles hier! Alles vars plaas is te koop en ons bestelling kom môre oggend. So op hierdie Goeie Vrydag het ons 'n stukkie amper uit 'n Narnia-boek beleef!

Delicious Karoo tranquility. We stayed in the Onbedacht Cottage for 3 nights. The house was very clean and tidy and well equipped with everything you need. Tanya was very friendly and helpful. During our visit, she regularly made sure that we were not missing anything. It was a lovely peaceful environment surrounded by beautiful mountains to go hiking in. We walked to the mountain stream and had a picnic there. We will definitely stay here again.

Heerlike Karoo rustigheid. Ons het vir 3 nagte in die Onbedacht Cottage gebly. Die huisie was baie skoon en netjies en toe gerus met als wat mens nodig het. Tanya was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Sy het gedurende ons besoek gereeld seker gemaak dat ons nie enige iets kort nie. Dit was 'n heerlike rustige omgewing omring met pragtige berge om in te gaan stap. Ons het gestap na die bergstroom en daar piekniek gehou. Ons sal beslis weer hier gaan bly.

Highly recommended. We will be sure to stay again; however, next time it will be for more than just one night. A scenic farm and cosy cottage.
