Kuilfontein Stable Cottages and The Paddocks

Very unexpected delight in a remote area.

Well-run, pretty accommodation.

Fantastic Karoo stay.

As always we had a wonderful time at Kuilfontein Stable Cottages. Very clean, awesome Karoo setting and delicous food. Will definitely visit again!

Karoo farm stay.

As allways fantastic stay with friendly service and superb food!

Baie nice!

Lekker gebly. Goed toegeruste eenheid. Vriendelike ontvangs.

Absolutely incredible stay. Would highly recommend this establishment.

Friendly staff, great food, beautiful scenery.

Pleasant country farm living arrive under the Tamarisk glade.

Best is to go running on the farm in the morning and catch the springboks and sunrise.

Welkome, gemaklike rusplek op die pad Kaap toe. Genoeg speelplek vir die kinders en heerlike kos te bestel.

Kuilfontein Paddocks is 'n perfekte oorslaapplek op pad Kaap toe met klein kinders. Daar's 'n klimraam, swembad en hope boeke om te lees as dit reën. Baie netjies en gerieflik. Kos is heerlik en muffins en joghurt vir ontbyt was baie welkom.

Heerlike verblyf op Karoo-plaas.

Vriendelike ontvangs, gesellige verblyf. Hoogs aanbeveel!

'n Heerlike stilte in die veld.

Kuilfontein se woonstelle, genoem perdekampe (paddocks), bied bedags 'n meesleurende uitsig oor die vlaktes en snags 'n wye uitsig op die sterrehemel. Wat het 'n stedeling meer nodig?

Fantasties!

Ideaal geleë, omgewing is wonderlik, verblyf fantasties en die kos kan nie beter nie!

Uitstekend!

Uitstekende ervaring. Penny en Lexi sorg op hulle spesiale manier vir die gaste. Aandete en atmosfeer uit die boonste rakke.

Teleurgesteld.

Deel van die rede hoekom ons by Kuilfontein bespreek het was om by hulle restaurant te gaan eet. Toe ons by die restaurant wou bespreek is ons ingelig dat dit eksklusief vir gaste van Stable Cottages is. Dit word nie so aangedui op die webtuiste nie en was dus teleurgesteld. Verder was ons verblyf by The Paddocks lekker behalwe vir die feit dat die skoonmakers al vroeg die oggend voor ons eenheid kom skoonmaak het en geraas het. Dit was steurend en sou verkies dat hulle eers na uitkloktyd begin skoonmaak.

We had an outstanding time. First time we have stayed in the Paddock's which is ideal for families etc. Should have ordered the braai packs as there are braai's available at the units and weather was fantastic.

Will definitely stay here again if I travel down to Cape Town or return to Pretoria.

Skoon, netjies, privaat en gemaklik.

Dis 'n wonderlike plek om saam met jou gesin te spandeer as jy deur die Karoo ry.

Best sleepover ever.

Highly recommended. Best sleepover place in Colesberg. Will definitely make use of Kuilfontein again!

Lovely.

See stars.

Gerieflike verblyf op pad see toe.

Die Paddocks is baie gerieflik en skoon. Die kos wat ons bestel het was heerlik. 'n Aircon sou welkom gewees het.

Uitstekende verblyf!

Baie dankie vir die verwelkoming en gasvryheid! Dit was 'n pragtige plekkie en ons was oorweldig met die heerlike kos en baie spasie na 'n dag se reis. Sal die oornaggasteplaas vir enige een aanbeveel.

One of the best places to stay!

Excellent food, service, friendliness, setting and comfort.

Heerlike verkwikking vir die siel.

Onverwagse juweel in die Karoo. Sal beslis weer daar stop. Baie sosiaal en lekker stories uitruil tussen al die oornag gaste. Kinders en honde het ewe opgewonde op die gras voor die Paddocks rondgehardloop terwyl die manne braai en vakansiebestemmings bespreek.

Peace, rest and good food, great stopover between Gauteng and the Cape.

A friendly welcome to a fresh clean room, and a tasty dinner makes the long road trip easier.

Such a wonderful surprise in the Karoo.

We loved the people, the food and the interiors are so refreshing.

Lekker gemaklike verblyf met goeie vriendelike diens.

Kuilfontein The Paddocks is heerlike gerieflike eenhede. Die voorbereide aandetes is baie smaaklik en Evelyn is uiters bekwaam en vriendelik. Die rustige plaas omgewing is 'n heerlike bonus. Dit was my derde keer wat ek in The Paddocks oorgebly het en ek sal beslis weer daar oorslaap.

Absoluut pragtige en gerieflike akkommodasie op 'n baie mooi plaas.

Ons is hartlik ontvang en meegedeel van 'n aardvark wat in die omgewing aktief is. Die kinders het die stap in die Karooveld vreeslik geniet. Ons het n braaipak bestel wat absoluut waarde vir geld was. Akkommodasie was heerlik warm in die koue nagte en die kinders het dit geniet om te sien hoe koeie nog met die hand gemelk word. Baie gasvrye bestuur. Word hoogs aanbeveel.

Perfect for overnight.

Our third time in Kuilfontein. Beautiful Karoo landscape and hospitality. Very spacious unit, well equipped. Delicious dinner quick and convenient after a long journey. Can definitely recommend it.

Oornag by Kuilfontein.

Dit was die perfekte oornagplek op pad terug huis toe.

Netjies en huislik.

Vriendelike gasvryheid van die Karoo by 'n topklas-bestemming.

Unique accommodation, friendly people, delicious food.

Had a nice time together.

Puik.

Diens is fantasties. Goed.

Alle verwagtinge oortref!

Wat 'n juweel. Totaal en al bo alle verwagtinge. Minstens 4-ster-kwaliteit en dit op so 'n 'onverwagse' plek. Perfekte oornag-oase tussen Gauteng en Kaapstad. Soveel karakter en atmosfeer.

Uitsonderlik.

Gerieflik, skoon, luuks, vriendelik, Afrikaans, sien my beslis weer!

Uitstekend ligging, huislik en gemaklik. Silwerskoon.

Baie dankie aan Penny en haar personeel. Spesiale vermelding aan Evelyn wat ons mooi gemaklik gemaak het, en net op die regte tyd liggies gebring het omdat beurtkrag ons gevang het. Pragtige huislike eenhede, silwerskoon, keurig gemeubileer en ten volle toegeruste kombuis. Ek het The Paddocks se spierwit linne baie waardeer. Cheers- sien julle een van die-dae weer vir 'n braai op julle stoep en ver uitsig.

Beautiful guest farm with superb service.

The perfect stopover on the way to the Cape. Rooms are extremely comfortable, the food is delicious and this all on a farm in the Karoo. Thanks Lexi and Kirstin for making our stay so memorable.

Lovely quiet accommodation with excellent service.

We enjoyed our stay at the Paddocks, it's so quiet. The people are friendly and the service good. The units are very comfortable, clean and neat. The food is delicious. Evelyn is very friendly and helpful. It is an added bonus to wake up early in the morning with the singing of a variety of birds and experience the beautiful sunrise.

Heerlik rustig, skoon en gemaklik.

Ons het in die Paddocks gebly. Alles is pragtig skoon en gemaklik. Diens is vriendelik en die kos is heerlik. Dit is so lekker rustige plaasatmosfeer.

Lovely.

Lovely place with all the necessities.

Fantastic location, staff and food.

Beautiful setting, food was fabulous and staff super friendly. Loved the entire stay will definitely be back.

Wonderlik.

Ek het vroegoggend lekker gaan stap. Die kos was lekker wat ons bestel het en die kamers was mooi. Let op dat in die stort is dit onmoontlik om te stort onder die stortkop. Die water spuit orals behalwe op jou lyf. Jy kom kurkdroog uit die stort. Ek sal hulle definitief weer besoek.

Perfect stop on our way to the Western Cape.

The units are very well-equipped and decorated beautifully. Bedroom is very comfortable. The home-made food that you can order in advance is the perfect thing after a long day of travelling. We were able to bring our dog and appreciated it a lot. Wish we could've stayed longer.

The best place to stay when going to Cape Town.

Great experience, fantastic service.

Beautiful and peaceful.

We enjoyed our stay at Kauilfontein. The peaceful farm area was exactly what we needed after a long, tiresome journey. The rooms and public areas are beautiful and comfortably furnished with a warm atmosphere. Dinner was delicious and breakfast much better than your standard B&B breakfasts.

Absolute rus en vrede na 'n lang dag op die pad!

Ons kom gou weer! Dit was 'n plesier om hier te oornag!

Baie netjies en gerieflik.

Het oorgebly saam met 2 honde en 2 klein kinders. Was baie mooi en gerieflik en diens was baie vriendelik.

Sal van nou af altyd daar oorslaap.

Wonderlike verbly, sal nooit weer iewers anders oorslaap op pad Kaap toe nie. Netjies, mooi, kos is ongelooflik lekker, diens is vriendelik - pragtige plaas!

Asemrowende Karoo-sonsondergang.

Wat 'n ongelooflike ondervinding om hier oor te bly. Die kamers is pragtig, skoon en het die gemaklikste matrasse. Die kos is geurig en word so mooi voorgesit. Die eienaar en personeel is vriendelik en die hele tyd in die omgewing vir as jy iets benodig. Maak seker om van die pekanneute te koop wat op die plaas geboer word. Ons sal beslis weer daar bly en beveel Kuilfontein aan vir 'n onvergeetlike belewenis.

Clean and neat and a delicious food.

Very clean and neat accommodation. Delicious food is left in your room, which you can just heat up in the microwave. So even if you only return late at night, there will be a nice plate of traditional "boerekos", a clean bed and a lovely bath.

Sleepover on our way to Knysna.

Nice place to stay - quiet and comfortable. Our ordered dinner was ready on arrival and very tasty. Staff so friendly it made up for the fact that our shower had no hot water in the morning (we showered next door).

Met honde gereis - wat baie welkom laat voel is.

Heelwat ander mense wie almal met honde op reis was, ook in dieselfde deel van gaste-area. Wat heerlik was, is dat dit mens gemaklik laat voel het omdat jy nie enigste met troeteldiere is nie. Mens is maar altyd bang jou diere steur ander gaste, maar hier was almal in dieselfde bootjie. Glo die eienaars het 'n wenresep hier en ek sal vir seker graag weer hier oorbly.

Five star!

I have been there before for a hunting trip. High quality accommodation and catering.

Wonderful hospitality, beautiful rooms and delicious meals.

Penny, Lexi, Grant and Portia makes sure that your every need is met. The meals are something different and play with your taste buds. Die rooms are spacious and the linen fresh. The Karoo air is fresh and the farm atmosphere adds to a very special experience.

Hospitality, atmosphere - ideal start to a holiday.

Very nice surprise in the heart of the Karoo. Excellent accommodation!

Perfect!

First class accommodation and delicious food!

Well-appointed and located for overnight stays.

Effective and professional service.

Phenomenal.

Spoilt with amazing views of the Karoo from your front stoep. Definitely homely and a sense of belonging. Unique decor with small details of comfort away from home. Exceptional service from the owner and staff from the moment we arrived. The best food (better than my mom's). Freshly baked muffins and homemade breads! Comfortable lounge, cute outside seating, the best antique culture experience.

Uitstekende oornag-akkommodasie vir reisigers tussen die Wes-Kaap se kuslyn en Gauteng.

Dit was lekker.

Kuilfontuin is an excellent way to start your holiday!

Comfortable and neat facilities in safe environment, wake up with farm and animal sounds, lovely farm breakfast.

I could live here.

It was an absolute pleasure to stay over here again. The farm atmosphere, coupled with attention to detail and a personal touch, is a winning formula. To say the fine dining we enjoyed was "nice", would be an insult - it was a fabulous gastronomical and sensory experience! We've stayed here before when the kids were little and even now, as teenagers, they were enthralled by everything this wonderful place has to offer. Thank you Penny and Patricia - we'll most definitely be back!

Baie gasvrye en interessante verblyf.

Die verblyf was van hoogstaande gehalte asook die maaltye was van hoogstaande gehalte. Penny Southey is 'n baie goeie gasvrou wat onderhoudend kan gesels en jou gou op jou gemak kan laat voel. Wat baie prysenswaardig is, is die liefdadigheidswerk wat hulle verrig onder die "karretjiemense" in die gemeenskap asook die geskiedkundige agtergrond van die plaas. Wens ons kon langer vertoef. Dit is ook baie gerieflik teenaan die N1 roete tussen Johannesburg en Kaapstad geleë wat dit 'n gerieflike oornag bestemming maak. Sal beslis weer daar besoek aflê!

Amazing stay. Clean, private, great service.

Wonderful. Will refer this place to family and friends.

Great stay! Great hosts, good food and a warm bed. Everything we needed.

We really enjoyed our stay. Comfortable, warm, good food, all the amenities we needed and the dogs loved it too! Would definitely return.

A very special, excellent experience.

Wonderful ambiance, personal attention is excellent, very helpful, quiet beautiful rural area.

All expectations met!

We received a friendly reception when we arrived and our room and the other facilities met all our expectations. Penny, her family and staff took care of all our needs and served a delicious dinner and breakfast. The sufficient distance from the N1 ensured peace and quiet and we had a good night's rest.

Vriendelik en gerieflike oornagblyplek.

Kuilfontein bly 'n baie betroubare oornagstop. Vriendelike eienaars en personeel, gerieflike kamers met 'n eg Karoo-aandete. Hulle kan egter gerus oorweeg om kliënte WiFi toegang te bied.

Hoogs aanbeveel!

Baie lekker oornagbestemming. Een van die beste gastehuise wat ek al besoek het.

Fantastiese oornagplek! Netjies, skoon, rustig en gerieflik langs die N1 halfpad tussen Johannesburg en Kaapstad.

Pragtige plaas in die hart van die Karoo. Baie vriendelike personeel het ons verwelkom. Goeie diens. Baie netjiese, goed toegeruste selfsorg-eenheid. Sal beslis weer daar oorslaap en dit aanbeveel by ander reisigers.

Aangenaam. Kos heerlik. Baie geniet!

Staf baie gasvry. Hulpvaardig. Tuis gevoel. Voel veilig op die plaas.

Beautiful clean accommodation

Friendly good service, and a clean, comfortable room.

Warm, friendly environment which made me feel so at home

Warm, friendly environment which made me feel so at home. I will definitely recommend The Paddocks to friends and family, and will certainly stay here again!

Wonderful, romantic setting. Dinner and breakfast were excellent

Very romantic setting. The farm is surrounded by wide open spaces. The dining room has amazing décor and the little pub presented a nice atmosphere. Food was very good. Patricia is one of the most friendly and efficient individuals I have ever met.

Dit was 'n ervaring om in die Karoo te oornag en die kleinste kroegie te beleef!

Hierdie is 'n verblyfopsie wat beslis deur enige reisiger oorweeg moet word. Die eienaars se kennis van die geskiedenis is ongelooflik en mens kan twee dae daar vertoef om alles te ervaar.

Puik, vriendelik ontvang, skoon, netjies en veilig!

Sal dit beslis aanbeveel! Dit is lekker ruim verblyf met alles wat nodig is. Die pesoneel het uit hul pad gegaan om alles vir ons so aagenaam moontlik te maak in die hartjie van die winter!

Goed!

We loved the uniqueness, food and company at this wonderful accommodation

We arrived here after a long drive and we were met the the very welcoming Patricia. We had a drink in the quaint bar followed by a leg stretch around the property. Dinner was a very social affair mingling with the other guests and the food was wonderful. We enjoyed a nightcap and a chat with Lexie and Grant before retiring to our very comfortable room were we slept like babies. We rounded our stay off with a delicious breakfast and were sorry to leave this unique accommodation behind.

A lovely surprise, friendly, fun and appetising.

I was pleasantly surprised. Staff very friendly, and caring and food was scrumptious.

We mistakenly took the self catering option.

We would only recommend the Stable Cottages as you are close to the main farm buildings.

Decent

A decent stay.

A charming, welcoming and inspirational experience, with excellent food and service!

I had the most memorable stay at this oasis in the Karoo. Excellent standards prevail, from the linen, to the quality of food, service and the most excellent breakfast I have had in a while, as well as the most welcoming hosts. I would highly recommend Kuilfontein, not only as a stopover, but as an inspirational experience.

Great halfway stopover between Cape Town and Gauteng

So peaceful & quiet. Food was really nice and inviting ambiance.

Lovely

A comfortable, peaceful spot in Colesberg.

Very comfortable

A welcome stopover after a long drive up from Cape Town.
