Karoo View Cottages

As the dawn awakens ... wait ... draw back your curtains ... and what a sight awaits you ... LIKE NO OTHER in our village. Your very own unique KAROO VIEW.

Enjoy our natural stone Plunge pool, with lounger and umbrellas – a perfect way to end a summer’s day with your glass of vino or two.

Enjoy the natural stone Boma with lovely large braai, equipped with all your firewood, firelighters, with our compliments, braai grids and utensils, and for those extra chilly nights a Mexican chimineya to huddle round, as well as 3 private braai and viewing spots, all individually designed to blend into the natural vegetation, equipped with your firewood and firelighters with our compliments. Braai grids and tongs also supplied for your use - really special to view our magnificent night sky to end off your Karoo day.

A real treat to end off your Karoo day, is to take a short walk or cycle at dusk along our road leading into the far distance where you may be fortunate to spot a Karoo Hare, Tortoise, or a Spotted Eagle Owl perched on one of the farm fences and if you are very very lucky you may see an Aardvark, silhouetted against the setting sun.

* Braai Baskets consisting of Karoo Lamb chops, Chicken pieces, Pork Chops, Karoo Wors – like no other and Ostrich steaks when available. We also have some other goodies in there.
* English Breakfast baskets are available to order for your convenience at an additional cost.
* Shopping for your basic food provisions (Advise when reserving).
