Gelukshoop Cottage Tankwa

Rustigheid verpersoonlik.

'n Plek waar mens rus vir die siel kan vind.

A well-equipped and managed stay.

The owners saw to all our needs and provided a well-equipped cottage with everything that worked. Communication was excellent.

Dis 'n voorreg om jou op so 'n terrein te plaas.

Seker die mees netjiese plaas wat ek nog op was, alles is perfek in plek. As 'n boerdery so bestuur word, kan dit net 'n sukses wees.

Lekker wegkomkans.

Pragtige omgewing. Alles wat mens nodig het vir 'n tydjie weg. Die weer was koud en mislik, maar die kaggel/kookarea in die kombuis het ons goed warm gehou. Die warm winterbeddegoed was wonderlik, sodat ons nie eers die aanloklike warmwatersakke gebruik het nie. Die donkie vir warm water werk verrassend fantasties. Die boma braai-area was ook lekker beskermd teen die wind en weer. Regtig 'n goeie plek om weg te kom van alles!

Heerlike rustige Karoo-belewenis.

Hierdie is 'n ongelooflike wegbreek weg van alles in die pragtige Tankwa Karoo. Corneel se Cottages is ten volle toegerus en baie gerieflik. Jy dink nog jy soek iets, dan is dit daar! Ons was mal oor die stilte, die sterre, die heerlike fietsry en stappaaie.

Beste Karoo-ervaring waarvoor jy kan vra.

Hierdie was die hoogtepunt van ons Karoo roadtrip. Die huis is silwerskoon met ordentlike linne. Die kamers is ruim en die kombuis baie goed ingerig. Die lapa/boma is windbeskut en ons kon al ons etes op die vuur maak. Die eienaars is gasvry en die plaas is prentjiemooi met oorgenoeg plek om te gaan stap en fiets te ry. Ons kom vir seker terug.

Tankwa magic.

Homely, cosy cottage, well-equipped kitchen and lovely, hot shower. Swimming in the farm dams, sitting around the wind-protected fire pit at night, the 4 x 4 trail to spectacular view point and star gazing were the highlights of our visit.

Lieflik, wyd, stil.

'n Baie gerieflike plekkie om 'n slag weer tot jou sinne te kom. Mense kan lekker stap op die plaas, ry in die distrik, of net sit en boeklees onder die boom of by 'n vuurtjie. As jy kan, bly langer as 'n naweek.

Rus vir die siel.

Die perfekte plek om te gaan rus en weer mens te word. Die rustigheid en natuurskoon is ongelooflik. Die geriewe is perfek vir die ligging en die mense is gaaf. Ons kan nie wag om weer te gaan nie!

Excellent!

Attention to detail is superb. Location is amazing.

Beautiful and peaceful. Very nice place.

Very friendly reception, road on the way and area very nice. Drove back from Sutherland one evening around 11 pm without any problem. The peace and quiet was 100%.

Netjies, skoon, mooi en rustig

Beste om die Tankwa met sy mooi sonsopkoms en -ondergang te geniet. Ons tydjie was net te kort, een aand, as jy gebied en plaas wil verken is dit definitief nie genoeg nie. Neem jul tieners saam ─ geen opvangs ─ d.w.s. geen selfone nie.

Cosy, beeldskoon, dis 'n moet!

Almal moet Gelukshoop Cottage beleef. Dit was ongelooflik met alles en meer wat ons nodig gehad het. Daar was alle apparate in die kombuis, oorgenoeg hout, 'n lekker snoesige vuur wat konstant in die kombuis brand vir die winterdae. Dit was hartseer om terug te kom ek sal nog graag vir weke daar wil bly. Ons het 'n ongelooflike tyd gehad en almal wat wel liefde vir die Karoo het moet dit beleef. Baie baie dankie vir Katrina wat ons so mooi verwelkom het en ons deur die huis gewys het. Sy was so oulik gewees en vir ons spesery ook gegee. Sy is 'n wonderlike mens.

Rustig.

Heerlike ontspanne naweek. Huisie baie goed toegerus en dit was lekker om die omgewing op die plaas te verken.

Unbelievable.

Best holiday ever, wonderful people. Katriena and Piet treated us to a warm reception and made sure everything was perfect in their quiet way. We fed the little lambs who found a special place in our hearts. Corneel and Arthur is a wonderful couple who made us feel as if we've known them for years. We were greeted by Corneel's delicious surprise and her soft touch was visible in the Cottage, equipped with everything you need. Perfect for a family in need of some family time. Thanks for everything and we're already planning our next visit.

Peace and quiet, nature at its best. Friendly people.

My wife, son, and I was on the farm for the long weekend. If you don't like gravel roads you can approach the place from Matjiesfontein, then it's just about 30 km gravel road. Or take the gravel road from Ceres through the Tankwa National Park if you have a bakkie or a 4x4. The road is quite bad but the cenery is beautiful. Piet and Katriena on the farm are really friendly and helped with everything. They even treated us to some freshly baked bread. Kind folks. Thanks so much. No "entertainment" available. Just beautiful farm roads, nature, and it is so quiet. If this is what you need and you have to get away from people, noise and lights, then this place is just for you. The house was spotless and equipped with everything you need to cook your own food and to braai. It even had electricity for my wife's hair dryer, it is all solar power though. Lots of animals on the farm gems buck, vaalribbok, duiker, steen buck, baboons, jackal, hare, springbuck, black wildebeest and one blue one. You have the farm roads for yourself you can enjoy it on your own. The farm is yours to enjoy for all practical purposes. What a heavenly delight. Thanks Ater and Corneel. You will see us again in winter time. By then the landscape will be beautiful. I'm already looking forward to it. No cellphone reception. Heaven on earth.

Everything to my liking.

Friendly welcome, good night's sleep in a beautiful house, lots of amenities in the kitchen and the outdoor braai area was perfect. The area was Karoo beautiful.

Mooi huisie.

Hemels rustig.

Wonderful cottage on a beautiful farm!

We enjoyed our stay here very much. It is a beautiful farm with great routes to hike or drive with exquisite views. I would recommend it to anyone!

Relaxing in Karoo.

Very nice and relaxing.

One word: excellent.

Gelukshoop is a must for anyone who wants to escape the buzz. Good location and the Karoo was beautiful.

Our time at Gelukshoop was excellent.

During the day we explored the farm and the area to our heart's content and enjoyed the breathtaking nights around the fire. Excellent!

Very quiet and pretty.

The fireplace was a bonus in the cold winter. Nice Muisbosskerm outside braai. Will definitely go again.

Memorable moments, warm reception and quietness in the farm. A need for a small fridge in the cottage.

I had the most interesting time of my life for the two days that I spent in the farm. It was indeed a good experience to be in a wilderness and this gives one an opportunity to appreciate nature. I would strongly suggest that the cottage is fitted with a small fridge, otherwise everything else was fantastic. Keeping stuff in the fridge that is in the other house brings with it some inconvenience. The reception by the guys in the farm was phenomenon.
