Weekend away.

Sangwe is a remote location in a nature reserve in the Klein Karoo. The house has everything that is needed for a comfortable time away - two fridges, gas stove for cooking, wood stove for heating. We went in Winter with moderate days and cold nights. The wood stove heated the house beautifully and kept it warm through the night. . The days were sunny and moderate and we spent them walking around the reserve enjoying the views of the countryside and spotting animals. . We enjoyed having no cellphone reception at the house, which helped us to relax. There was reception on top of a small hill about 50m away that enabled us to check in on our kids back at home, so we could still feel connected if we wanted to. . We look forward to coming back one day.

Baie spesiale naweek by 'n besonderse plek.

Sangwe is puik geleë in die reservaat sodat jy 'n pragtige uitsig het van die stoep en braai-area af, en glad nie bewus is van enige ander persele of gaste nie. Het heerlik gekuier, dis perfek toegerus met alles wat mens sou benodig. Pragtige natuur en het heerlik gery, gestap en fietsgery. Onvergeetlike gesinsnaweek saam met Oupa en Ouma!

Very special weekend in an exceptional place.

Sangwe is excellently located in the reserve so that you have a beautiful view from the patio and braai area, and you aren't aware of other premises or guests. Had a lovely time, it is perfectly equipped with everything you could need. Beautiful nature and we had a good time driving, walking and biking. Unforgettable family weekend with Grandma and Grandpa!

Really good hostess and good value for money accommodation.

Great spot for a relaxed few days - hiking, cycling (MTB), etc. Very comfortable accommodation and a very welcoming agent. Also a few calls from the owner to ensure all was okay.

Peaceful break from the city - good for the soul.

Nice break from the hustle and bustle. Breathtaking scenery - high clearance vehicle essential. Accommodation top class and spotless.

What a beautiful place!

The setting is private and peaceful. The back porch, firepit and sundowner deck makes it even more memorable. The house has all the conveniences you need to get away from the city for a comfortable stay. The cherry on top was when we saw the giraffes the evening before we left. If you want to get away from it all (even cell phones) and reconnect as a family, then Sangwe is the place to go!

‘n Wonderlike plek.

Die uitleg van die huis is perfek, die kombuis goed toegerus. Wat 'n wonderlike bederf. Kos vir die siel. Ons was mal oor die uitsig van die stoep af en het ook lekker op die platform in die boom gesit met ons oggendkoffie. Ons het lekker in die reservaat rondgerits en 4x4-roetes geniet. Die plantegroei, stilte en natuurskoon was net wat ons nodig gehad het vir ons stille runaway. Ons kom definitief weer terug!

A wonderful place.

The layout of the house is perfect, the kitchen well equipped. What a wonderful treat. Food for the soul. We loved the view from the porch and also enjoyed sitting on the platform in the tree with our morning coffee. We zipped around the reserve and enjoyed 4x4 routes. The vegetation, silence and scenery were just what we needed for our quiet runaway. We will definitely come back again!

Rustig in die natuur.

Netjiese en goed toegeruste verblyf in 'n tipiese Karoo-rustige omgewing. Die stoep het 'n wye uitsig oor die Karoovlaktes en diere kan soms van die huis af gesien word. Verken die area te voet, fiets of motor. Daar is wel selfoonontvangs binne stapafstand van die huis in 'n noodgeval.

Peaceful in nature.

Neat and well-equipped accommodation in the Karoo. The patio has a great view of the Karoo surroundings and sometimes you can see the animals from the house. You can explore the area on foot, on a bike or in a car. There is cellphone reception within walking distance from the unit in case of emergency.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sangwe.

The weather played its part to make it a very enjoyable time. The scenery is exquisite and the house well appointed and clean. The buck and birds in the reserve were an added treat.

Stilte, natuurskoon, waarde vir geld.

Erens in ons gejaagde lewe moet mens tot stilstand kom net om weer jouself te vind. En Sangwe is net die regte plek. Gerieflik ingerig word hierdie stukkie paradys met jou gedeel. Die springbokke, kameelperd, swartwildebeeste kom groet jou en dan was ons bederf met 'n volmaan wat die naweek 'n absolute belewenis gemaak het.

Quiet, scenic, value for money.

Somewhere in our hectic life one has to stop just to find oneself again. And Sangwe is just the right place. Comfortably furnished, this piece of paradise is shared with you. The springbok, giraffe, black wildebeest come to greet you and then we were spoiled with a full moon which made the weekend an absolute experience.

Dit was wonderlik. As jy 'n regte stadsjapie is kan jy bietjie skrik as die son sak, maar dit is als die moeite werd. Sien julle weer.

Jy kry jou menswees terug hier.

'n Baie goed ingerigte huisie heet jou welkom tussen twee rantjies wat vêr uitkyk oor die Klein Karoo-vlakte. Daar is bure om jou maar jy sien hulle nie en hoor hulle ook nie. Drie slaapkamers stylvol versier met hotel kwaliteit beddegoed. Lekker gesellige leefkamer met dubbeldeure uit op stoep wat die pragtigste vistas oplewer. Jou oë wil verdrink in die prag natuurtonele, kan dit waar wees waar ek is? Voor my uit lê die harde Karoo en 3 treë agter my 'n heerlike bed met kraakvars wit beddegoed in 'n huisie met krag en warm water. Die plek laai jou siel en werk met jou binneste. 'n Prag plek, 'n rusplek, 'n nuut word plek!

You get your humanity back here.

A very well furnished little house welcomes you between two ridges overlooking the Klein Karoo plain. There are neighbors around you but you don't see them and you don't hear them either. Three bedrooms stylishly decorated with hotel quality bedding. Nice and cozy living room with double doors opening onto a veranda that offers the most beautiful vistas. Your eyes want to drown in the beautiful natural scenes, can it be true where I am? In front of me lies the harsh Karoo and 3 steps behind me a lovely bed with crisp white bed linen in a small house with electricity and hot water. The place charges your soul and works with your inner self. A beautiful place, a resting place, a new place!
