Vriendelik, gasvry en verskriklike mooi natuur.

Regtig lekker mense. Sal dit vir enige iemand aanbeveel, nie net as oornagplek nie maar definitief om paar dae daar vakansie te hou.

Friendly, hospitable and terribly beautiful nature.

Really nice people. Would recommend it to anyone, not only as a place to stay overnight but definitely to holiday there for a few days.

Garingboom bied vyfster-verblyf en gasvryheid.

Die uitsig vanaf die kamer se stoepie, grasveld en skape wat wei, bied welkome ontspanning na 'n dag op die pad. Ons is gasvry ontvang en die aandete was heerlik.

Garingboom offers five-star accommodation and hospitality.

The view from the room's veranda, grassland and sheep grazing, provides welcome relaxation after a day on the road. We were received hospitably and the dinner was delicious.

Gerieflike ligging, so rustig en die kos is heerlik.

Dis nie ons eerste besoek nie, en ons was net weereens so beindruk. Die plaas is pragtig, die omgewing is so rustig en Riette weet soveel van die natuur in die omgewing, ons kon ure met haar gesels. Soveel gasvryheid van almal in die familie. En die aandete. Heerlike gekookte boerekos met Karoo skaapvleis - nou water my mond sommer alweer. Maak seker dat jy aandete bespreek wanneer jy daarso oorslaap.

Convenient location, so peaceful and the food is delicious.

It's not our first visit, and we were once again so impressed. The farm is beautiful, the surroundings are so peaceful and Riette knows so much about nature in the area, we could talk to her for hours. So much hospitality from everyone in the family. And the dinner. Delicious cooked peasant food with Karoo mutton - now my mouth is watering again. Make sure you book dinner when you stay overnight there.

Die verblyf op Garingboom sal altyd een van ons hoogtepunte bly.

Jan en Riette is besonderse gashere. Riette het die ongelooflikste kennis van voëls, skoenlappers, naaldekokers en elke enkele graspol en bossie op die plaas. As voëlkykers het ons absolute waarde vir ons geld gekry en sommer heelwat 'lifers' tot ons lys toegevoeg. Haar entoesiasme is aansteeklik en maak die belewenis meer spesiaal. Hoogs aanbeveel vir alle natuur liefhebbers. Ontbyt en aandete keurig voorgesit en heerlik!! Dankie Jan en Riette! Jan en Riette is puik gashere. Mens voel dadelik gemaklik en welkom. Riette se kennis is verstommend. Ons sal hierdie tyd vir ewig in ons harte bewaar.

The stay on Garingboom will always remain one of our highlights.

Jan and Riette are exceptional hosts. Riette has the most incredible knowledge of birds, butterflies, dragonflies and every single blade of grass and bush on the farm. As bird watchers we got absolute value for our money and added quite a few 'lifers' to our list. Her enthusiasm is contagious and makes the experience more special. Highly recommended for all nature lovers. Breakfast and dinner nicely presented and delicious!! Thank you Jan and Riette! Jan and Riette are great hosts. You immediately feel comfortable and welcome. Riette's knowledge is amazing. We will treasure this time in our hearts forever.

Ideale oornagblyplek op pad Kaap toe.

Die rustigheid van 'n skaapplaas en die gasvryheid van Jan en sy seun word baie waardeer. So lekker om in so 'n netjiese plek te bly.

Baie netjies en gasvry soos altyd.

Dit was ons derde besoek by Garingboom en ons is soos familie ontvang. Baie gasvry en netjies. Die chalet kan deur 'n ring getrek word. Die rustigheid van die plaas is net fantasties. Baie baie dankie.

Heerlik, gemaklik, ontspanne en gasvry.

Roete na die plaas was duidelik en maklik om te volg. Ons ontvangs was hartlik en die ontmoetings gemoedelik. Baie lekker aandete geniet en ontspanne gesels. Goed geslaap in die stilte van die plaas omgewing. Verfris opgestaan en 'n lekker plaasontbyt geniet. Ons sal weer kom kuier.

Lovely, comfortable, relaxed and hospitable.

Route to the farm was clear and easy to follow. Our reception was warm and the meetings friendly. Enjoyed a very nice dinner and relaxed conversation. Slept well in the silence of the farm environment. Got up refreshed and enjoyed a nice farm breakfast. We will visit again.

Looking for quietness and good service?

Yes its far from big cities, no shopping around. But that is what it is all about! You're in the countryside, at a working sheep farm. Good food (breakfast and dinner, the last one when ordered in advance), in a cosy guesthouse. There's a small pool too. And nice walks with educational material!

Dit is eersteklas, silverskoon en baie netjies.

Die wooneenhede is pragtig binne, alles is daar wat jy nodig het, dit is pure plaas en baie skoon en netjies. Die atmosfeer is rustig en die omgewing baie mooi. Daar is twee staproetes in die veld, waarvan ons die kort een meegemaak het. Die eetsaal kyk uit op hulle tuin en is ongelooflik mooi versorg. Vyfster sou ek sê.

It is first class, silver clean and very neat.

The housing units are beautiful inside, everything you need is there, it is pure farm and very clean and tidy. The atmosphere is peaceful and the surroundings very beautiful. There are two hiking trails in the field, of which we experienced the short one. The dining room overlooks their garden and is incredibly well maintained. Five star I would say.

Absoluut weergaloos en onverbeterlik!

Dit was die perfekte kombinasie van goeie plattelandse gasvryheid, heerlike kos, 'n skilderagtige omgewing, luukse oornagplek, hartlike ontvangs, goeie koffie en 'n voëlparadys. Ons kom vir seker weer!
