The perfect destination for someone looking for peace and quiet away from the everyday hustle and bustle.
To really appreciate Daberas Guest Farm you should preferably stay more than 3 days. Be prepared to turn off social media and public entertainment. It is truly a place where one can just 'be' and enjoy unconditionally without feeling guilty. Hannecke, Kobus and Angelo are extremely hospitable and exceeded our expectations. Thank you very much for the exceptionally pleasant stay. regards

We, our 8 year old son and friends visited Daberas for an amazing 2 nights. The tranquility and silence overwhelms you. We drove the 4x4 road on Daberas and came to the most incredible view. The house is beautiful, clean and has everything you need. To Hannecke, Kobus and grandson: Thank you very much for an incredible 2 days, what you created there on Daberas and your hospitality. My son still talks about the horses and Loula, the sheep. Thank you very much, we will see you again.

There is an ease about Daberas that pleasantly surprises you. The quiet natural beauty is matched by the hostess Hannecke and Mr. Kobus's enthusiasm and love for their piece of paradise. The units are remarkably neat and efficiently furnished. No effort is spared and even the knives are razor sharp. Furthermore, the entire farm is sensitively self-sustaining. Truly a must to visit the lookout point.

Silence and peace. If this is what you desire, Daberas is the place for you. It's a bit out of the way, but as Diana from Northern Cape Tourism says: "the Northern Cape is out of the way". Do yourself a favor and go on the Eco Tour with Kobus. Kobus is the wonderful source of information and opened up a world of wonder for us with his knowledge of geology and the plants on the farm. There are kilometers and kilometers of rugged scenery around on the walk, of course for the men there is enough space for them to play with their 4x4s. The unit where we stayed is beautiful and well furnished, nothing lacking. Book meals with Hannacke if you don't want to cook yourself. We ate deliciously. My only problem was that we had to drive after 6 days! We hope to visit Daberas again soon!

Kobus and Hannecke are exceptional as host and hostess and go out of their way to make one's stay as pleasant as possible. Our privacy was also respected and the facilities and living unit were among the best and we lacked nothing.

Home away from home!
Breathtaking and picturesque farm with various and also the most beautiful hiking trails. Our home was lovely and with an outside shower, perfect for the lovely weather. The home-made ice cream is a must and the cherry on top after a wonderful two days on this piece of heaven on earth.

Heerlike stilte van die woestyn, veral saans om die braaivleisvuur.

Quietness of the desert was lovely, especially in the evenings next to the braai.
The owner took us on an interesting geological tour. Our hostess was very helpful to arrange a double bed in the living room so that 4 couples could sleep separately. The location could be advertised better on the internet ad. It was difficult to figure out exactly where the guest farm was relative to the falls. Some minor critique is that the outer door of one of the bedrooms was locked and didn't have a key, and that there's only one toilet.

We had a wonderful stay. The dirt road may not be for small sedan cars but don't let that deter you.

Om net een aand op Daberas deur te bring is te min.

Spending just one night on Daberas is too little.
Although it is quite remote, it is precisely this fact that makes the experience so remarkable. Nature lovers will find it worthwhile. The location makes it possible to enjoy nature and unique landscape, as well as to rest from the daily rush.

Shortened stay.
Provided there is an upgrade in terms of at least ceiling fans in the rooms (as it was 37°C) with no cooling facilities, and no power points, I will not be going back.
