Highly recommended. Skoorsteenberg is neat with beautiful scenery. It is clear that Frik is proud of his farm and maintains and manages it well. Frik is a friendly host and spoiled us with the facilities on his farm. Thank you very much. We will come and visit again.

Hoogs aanbeveel. Skoorsteenberg is netjies met pragtige natuurskoon. Dit is duidelik dat Frik trots is op sy plaas en dit goed onderhou en bestuur. Frik is 'n vriendelike gasheer en het ons bederf met die fasiliteite op sy plaas. Baie dankie. Ons sal weer kom kuier.

Beautiful. It's a wonderful place with the most beautiful views of both the mountains and the Karoo plains. Will definitely visit again in the future.

Pragtig. Dis 'n wonderlike plek met die mooiste uitsig oor beide die berge en die Karoo-vlaktes. Sal dit beslis weer besoek in die toekoms.

Excellent mountain cabin, with great privacy and incredible scenery. Fantastic cabin in the Tankwa. Has absolutely everything, from ice maker to microwave oven. Frik, the owner, is very helpful and the place is very, very neat.

Uitstekende berg hut/cabin, met goeie privaatheid en ongelooflike natuurskoon. Fantastiese cabin in die Tankwa. Het absoluut alles, van ysmaker tot mikrogolf oond. Frik, die eienaar, is baie hulpvaardig en die plek is baie, baie netjies.

The most wonderful stay! Nana is an incredible host! The most wonderful stay! Nana is an incredible host. She went out of her way to make our stay worth it. The accommodation is extremely well-equipped. This is the type of stay where you just need to bring clothes and food, as everything else is provided. The location of the accommodation is perfect for someone who loves to be outdoors and in nature. A clear sky means wonderful stargazing too! If the weather is too hot, there is also a small splash pool to help cool you down. Everything is just perfect!

Thanks for the wonderful review, Sam. I'm so pleased you enjoyed your stay so much - in spite of all the unexpected developments! I would love to see you again before I sell the farm, so will keep you updated. Regards, Nana

Dankie vir die wonderlike resensie, Sam. Ek is so bly jy het jou verblyf so geniet - ten spyte van al die onverwagte verwikkelinge! Ek sal jou graag weer sien voor ek die plaas verkoop, so sal jou op hoogte hou. Groete, Nana

Relaxing 3 nights. We loved it! We stayed for 3 nights in Date Cottage and had a great time. This is the perfect place for a proper break. Off the grid but so comfortable. The cottage has everything you need. There are beautiful walks, sunsets and animals on the farm. Nona was so warm and friendly and we even got a freshly baked bread on our 2nd day. Thank you!

Thank you for your kind review, Melissa. I'm so pleased you enjoyed your stay and feel like it was a real getaway. The farm is beautiful at the moment so your timing was perfect. Thank you for your visit and please come again.

Dankie vir jou vriendelike resensie, Melissa. Ek is so bly jy het jou verblyf geniet en voel asof dit 'n ware wegbreek was. Die plaas is pragtig op die oomblik so jou tydsberekening was perfek. Dankie vir jou besoek en kom asseblief weer.

Certainly the part of our break we were most looking forward to and Skoorsteenberg did not disappoint! Breathtaking landscapes, silence that hurts your ears and stars you can touch! The cleanliness and tranquility of the cottage only helped to make everything even better! Nana is a real hostess and extremely attentive and caring. We just fell in love all over again with the Tankwa and Nana's farm is a gem in it. Friendly people in the area. The Padstal is a landmark on the way there and the road from Ceres leaves one in awe of nature again!

Sekerlik die deel van ons wegbreek waarna ons die meeste uitgesien het en Skoorsteenberg het nie teluergestel nie! Asemrowende landskappe, stilte wat jou ore seermaak en sterre waaraan mens kan vat! Die netheid en rustigheid van die kothuis het net gehelp om alles nog beter te maak! Nana is 'n ware gasvrou en uiters bedag en besorgd. Ons het net weer van voor af verlief geraak op die Tankwa en Nana se plaas is 'n juweel daarin. Vriendelike mense in die omgewing. Die Padstal is 'n landmerk op pad soontoe en die pad van Ceres laat mens in bewondering weer vir die natuur!

Thank you so much for the great feedback Arlett. I am very glad you enjoyed it so much and appreciated the silence of the Tankwa. Come and visit again anytime, you were very respectful and tidy guests.

Baie dankie vir die wonderlike terugvoer Arlett. Ek is baie bly julle het dit so geniet en die stilte van die Tankwa waardeer. Kom kuier enige tyd weer, julle was baie respekvolle en netjiese gaste.

Tranquil cosy stay in the heart of the Tankwa. The perfect Tankwa stay! Clean and very cosy accommodation. Lots of open spaces to 'play'. Nana was so helpful. The Tankwa gave its best to us!

It has been our 7th stay at Skoorsteenberg but our first winter stay. We found that it is best to go either spring or autumn, but summers can be very beautiful as well although it can get extremely hot. We had a bit of difficulty getting to the farm and 4x4 was required due to a very muddy R355. Two days before our departure, the access farm road was severely flooded but the water subsided just at the right time, so with 4x4 low range we could make it back ok as this road was extremely muddy. It is advisable to contact the farm owner to find out about road conditions, especially if you drive a normal sedan.

Thank you for the review Martin, and for the many visits. Good advice for future guests in the rainy season, although sometimes we have summer rains too- so always better to contact us before the departure. As long as you were warm enough, and had a good break. With little else to do, it was probably beneficial.

Dankie vir die resensie Martin, en vir die vele besoeke. Goeie raad vir toekomstige gaste in die reënseisoen, alhoewel ons soms ook somerreën het - so altyd beter om ons te kontak voor die vertrek. Solank jy warm genoeg was, en 'n goeie ruskans gehad het. Met min anders om te doen, was dit waarskynlik voordelig.

Had a great stay. Had just too little time to fully enjoy the Karoo. It is the right place to find rest for the soul. Appreciated everything available as it takes a lot of effort to run such a remote place.

Het baie lekker gebly. Het net te min tyd gehad om die Karoo ten volle te geniet. Dit is die regte plek om rus vir die siel te kry. Het alles wat beskikbaar is, waardeer aangesien dit baie moeite verg om so 'n afgeleë plek te bedryf.

Thank you very much Pieter. I'm glad you enjoyed it, and that you noticed the effort we put in. We try to make it as comfortable as possible for people. Feel free to visit again when you have a little more time.

Baie dankie Pieter. Ek is bly julle het dit geniet, en dat jy die moeite wat ons doen, raak gesien het. Ons probeer om dit so gemaklik as moontlik vir mense te maak. Kom kuier gerus weer as julle n bietjie meer tyd het.
