Absolute silence, breathtaking stars and blissful togetherness. We had a great stay, but it was very hot at night and if we kept the windows open for the cool breeze, the bugs bit us. We made a point of keeping the lights on as little as possible on the second night so as not to attract insects. There were fewer insects, but they still bit us, even though we used insect repellent cream. Owners could possibly consider an insect screen in front of the windows. We would love to visit Brinksfontein again!

Absolute stilte, asemrowende sterre en salige samesyn. Ons het baie lekker gebly, maar dit was baie warm saans en as ons die vensters oopgehou het vir die koel luggie, het die goggas ons gekou. Ons het die tweede aand 'n punt daarvan gemaak om die ligte so min as moontlik aan te hou om nie insekte te lok nie. Daar was minder insekte, maar hulle het ons nog steeds gekou, al het ons insekwerende room gebruik. Eienaars kan moontlik 'n insek sif voor vensters oorweeg. Ons sal graag weer kom kuier op Brinksfontein!

Had a great time at Brinksfontein! Beautiful surroundings and house in the Karoo. Beautiful old stone house is well equipped with everything needed and more! Had a great time and barbecued on the stoep and enjoyed the hottub hole out! Received us with delicious warm home-baked bread and warm hospitality. It was also nice that our friends' dogs were welcome. Would really recommend Brinksfontein to people who like the Karoo and see a chance for the long dirt road (which by the way is not in bad condition at all).

Baie lekker gekuier op Brinksfontein! Pragtige omgewing en huis in die Karoo. Mooi ou kliphuis is goed toegerus met alles wat nodig is en nog meer! Het heerlik gekuier en gebraai op die stoep en het die hottub gate uit geniet! Het ons met 'n heerlike warm tuisgebakte brood en hartlike gasvryheid ontvang. Was ook lekker dat ons vriende se honde welkom was. Sal Brinksfontein regtig aanbeveel vir mense wat hou van die Karoo en kans sien vir die lang grondpad (wat terloops glad nie in 'n sleg toestand is nie).

Peaceful, balm for the soul! Our hostess was very welcoming with a home-baked plaasbrood and some of the nicest peach jam! We truly loved everything about it. A long drive from CT, so in our opinion, not for only a weekend, but so very worth it. We cycled, walked, spent hours in the very clean and welcoming cold (or hot if you chose) splash pool. Comfortable beds, bedding pristinely clean and fresh. The photos do not do this 'piece of heaven' justice. There is WiFi and it worked well until the services were down in the entire area. Will definitely be back. Highly recommended!

Pristine Karoo farm accommodation. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, this is the perfect place. Beautiful Karoo simplicity and character. The boma fire and stars above you, an atmosphere.

Ongerepte Karoo plaas verblyf. As jy wil wegbreek van die alledaagse gejaag en geraas, is dit die perfekte plek. Pragtige Karoo eenvoud en karakter. Die boma vuur en sterre bo jou, 'n atmosfeer.

Tranquil, quiet and great star gazing. Beautiful place in a great setting. If silence and tranquillity are your thing, this is the place to get away.

Good for the soul. We had a wonderful stay. The 70 km gravel road to the place was much worse than expected and was almost a shake.

Goed vir die siel. Ons het heerlik gebly. Die 70 km grondpad tot by die plek was wel heelwat slegter as wat verwag was en was dit omtrent 'n geskuddery.

The Karoo as we know it. Here you can just be yourself. Delicious! Clean air, plenty to do, great facilities and just a place where you can be close to nature and your Creator. Everyone could do with such a getaway event. Thanks for the treat!

Die Karoo soos ons dit ken. Hier kan jy maar net jouself wees. Héérlik! Skoon lug, genoeg om te doen, heerlike geriewe en sommer net 'n plekkie waar jy naby die natuur en jou Skepper kan wees. Almal sal kan doen met so 'n wegbreek-geleentheid. Dankie vir die bederf!

The Karoo at its magnificent best. Due to unforeseen circumstances, we had to delay our trip by a month. This was a blessing in disguise. The water damage caused by the recent heavy rains was more than made up for by the abundant flora in bloom. The vast expanse of Karoo solitude and beauty around us was breathtaking. There was also so much landscape to explore. This is definitely on our list of places worthy of a second visit.

The Karoo silence lets you find yourself again. We were welcomed in the area with the most beautiful Karoo wildflowers that don't have to stand behind the Namaqualand flowers at all! Thank you, Rae, for allowing us and our four-legged child to enjoy Brinksfontein with everything we needed! That home-baked bun and jam you welcomed us with is definitely a winner. The Karoo once again stole our hearts, especially when we were greeted with snow on the morning of our departure (still regretting that we couldn't stay for another nap). We have already recommended Brinksfontein to a few families. Until next time.

Die Karoo-stilte laat jou jouself weer vind. Ons is in die omgewing verwelkom met die mooiste Karoo-veldblomme wat glad nie vir die Namakwalandse blomme hoef terug te staan nie! Dankie, Rae, dat ons en ons viervoetkind, Brinksfontein, met als wat ons nodig gehad het, kon geniet! Daai tuisgebakte broodjie en konfyt waarmee jy ons verwelkom het, is beslis 'n wenner. Die Karoo het weereens ons harte gesteel, veral toe ons die oggend van ons vertrek met sneeu begroet is (nou nog spyt dat ons nie nog 'n slapie kon bly nie). Ons het Brinksfontein reeds vir 'n paar gesinne aanbeveel. Tot weersiens.
