Pragtige oornaghuisie met vriendelike mense om jou te verwelkom.

Na 'n lieflike vakansie in die Kgalagadi het ons vanaf Mata Mata vertrek en by Kalahari Sands oornag om die volgende oggend huiswaarts te keer. Beste besluit ooit. Hannetjie het vir ons die heerlikste kos voorberei na 'n lang, warm dag. Ons het lekker uitgerus vir ons lang rit terug huistoe.

After a lovely holiday in the Kgalagadi we departed from Mata Mata and spent the night at Kalahari Sands to return home the next morning. Best decision ever. Hannetjie prepared the most delicious food for us after a long, hot day. We rested well for our long drive back home.

Baie goed toegeruste eenheid. Netjies en gerieflik.

Ongelukkig is die eenheid reg langs Ashkam se enigste bottelstoor en Donderdagmiddag/-aand (tot 20:00) was dit maar raserig daar. Die tweede aand het heelwat swaar vragmotors in Ashkam ingekom om daar om te draai, oornag, en/of brandstof in te sit wat effe steurend was.

Very well equipped unit. Neat and comfortable.

Unfortunately the unit is right next to Ashkam's only bottle store and on Thursday afternoon/evening (until 8pm) it was noisy there. The second night a lot of heavy trucks came into Ashkam to turn around, spend the night, and/or put in fuel which was a bit disturbing.

A peaceful place for a good night's rest.

A comfortable room but it requires some work and modernization to bring it up to the level of other B&B's in this price range. The general garden area outside room was unkept and showing signs of neglect.

Is jammer dat hul my nie gesê het van kamer wat vuil is nie aangesien ek gesê het hul moet laatweet as daar enigiets nie reg is nie. Moet sê dis eerste keer wat soiets gebeur oor vuil kamer. Ons plek is bekend vir netheid so ek is dan baie jammer. Sal graag wil weet wat was vuil..

Kalahari Sands is absoluut topklas verblyf.

Kalahari Sands is gerieflik, skoon, netjies en sommer net 'n aangename mooi plek om oor te slaap. Alles wat jy in 'n 5 ster plek kry, kry jy hier plus 'n baie vriendelike ontvangs deur die eienaar self. Ek sal beslis weer daar bespreek en dit ook aanbeveel vir enige iemand wat verblyf op Askham soek.

Pragtige, rustige ligging met alles wat mens nodig het - goeie waarde vir geld.

Om Askham deur hierdie verblyfplekkie te kon leer ken, was voorwaar vrugbaar. Behalwe dat die verblyf self heerlik was met die braaiplek langsaan, het ons Askham se besondere vetplantversameling bewonder toe ons gaan stap het en het baie geleer van meerkatte deurdat ons die "sanctuary" kon besoek onder in die straat.

Beautiful, peaceful location with everything you need - good value for money.

Being able to get to know Askham through this place of residence was truly fruitful. Apart from the fact that the accommodation itself was lovely with the barbecue area next door, we admired Askham's special collection of succulents when we went for a walk and learned a lot about meerkats by visiting the "sanctuary" down the street.

Everything was good!

Well placed, friendly staff, clean and well equipped. We did find the dinner provided by the coffee bar a little expensive. R120 for 2 small pieces of rib and even if there were 3 veggies, we felt a little expensive. The breakfast was good. A nice gesture from Annetjie for the bottle of wine she gave us.
