Pragtige plaashuis.

Beautiful farmhouse.
The house is spacious, beautifully furnished and spotlessly clean. Nice hiking trails in the field. Elsabe and Johan are very friendly and helpful. Remember that the entrance to the guest farm is on the Vosburg-Pampoenfontein-Victoria West road, not the direct Vosburg-Victoria West road. The dirt roads are in very good condition. There is no signal for wifi.

Hearty Karoo accommodation in a peaceful wide open place with clean, fresh air and starry splendor like few.
Elsabe and Johan receive and treat you as if we have been good friends for a long time - delicious! You immediately feel that you belong there. The peace and calm that comes over you after a long day on busy roads is wonderful - you can just sit back, take it in and rest. Our stay and the delicious meals and company at EL JO Self-catering Guest Farm was indeed a very unique experience in a special place, which we recommend without reservation and would like to experience again. Many thanks Elsabe and Johan!

Best halfway stop we have ever had.
Uncle Johan and aunt Elsabe received us very warmly after a long day's journey. Uncle Johan helped us unpack and lit a fire in the cozy living area. We travel with someone in a wheelchair and everything was made as easy as possible for us. Thank you very much Uncle Johan and Aunt Elsabe. We won't just drive past this beautiful place if we take the long road again.

Wonderful with the best hospitality.
The reason I'm giving a four (and not a five) for location is because it's a bit out of town. But it is absolutely worth the trip to stay at this guest farm. I will stay here every time I'm in the Vosburg area. Elsabe and Johan are the best host and hostess anyone could wish for. This is one of their sayings in their guest house is - "Come as guests, leave as friends." This is absolutely true. They are friends. Thank you very much for everything.

Great Karoo visit.
We were pleasantly surprised and had a great time. Johan and Elsabe made us feel very much at home and we experienced genuine Karoo hospitality. We bought the most delicious sausage and lamb chops from them and grilled them, sausage was very tasty for the next day's road food. EL JO is a beautiful place to stay, fantastically equipped with everything you need and is highly recommended.

EL JO and Poortjie are a gem. What a privilege it was to get to know Johan and Elsabe. EL JO was everything and more than we expected.
The three nights on Poortjie were a gift from heaven, a beautiful complete guest house in the most beautiful Karooveld. Elsabe and Johan spoiled us with their friendly hospitality and special care such as all the extra firewood, hot chocolate and Johan who went early in the morning to see if the lilies of the valley were blooming so we could see them too.

Very nice to spend the night with fellow farmers and visit. We thoroughly enjoyed the typical hospitality of our peasant people. The garden is a loop court in the arid Karoo. Can definitely recommend, great value for money, quiet, rest, peace and good food.

Thank you Johan and Elsabe for the effort you made with us and your hospitality. Unfortunately we could only stay one night after travel arrangements, but will definitely visit again. It is also an ideal destination for a family if you want to give your children exposure to a farm environment and the veld.
