Ruim, swemplek, privaat, toegerus, pragtig.

Pragtige private plekkie diep in die Karoo. Lekker swemplek vir die hitte en 'n heerlike groot stoep. Sal 'n lekker wegbreek wees vir 'n familie of groep vriende. Die sterre was ongelooflik! was 'n fantastiese gasvrou en het baie goeie aanwysings gestuur. Die huis is ook baie goed toegerus en die kaste is selfs gemerk om dit makliker te maak om goed te kry. 'n Absolute gem .

Spacious, swimming pool, private, equipped, beautiful.

Beautiful private spot deep in the Karoo. Nice swimming place for the heat and a lovely large veranda. Would be a nice getaway for a family or group of friends. The stars were amazing! was a fantastic hostess and sent very good directions. The house is also very well equipped and the cupboards are even labeled to make it easier to find things. An absolute average.

Dankie Mc, ons is so bly dat julle 'n wonderlike tyd gehad het by ons! Die rivier is die perfekte ontspanningsplek vir die hitte, en daar is niks so spesiaal soos die pragtige sterre van die Karoo-nagte nie. Ons is ook baie dankbaar vir die komplimente oor die aanwysings en die toerusting van die huis. Dit was 'n voorreg om julle as gaste te hê, en ek hoop regtig julle maak weer 'n draai in die toekoms. Baie dankie vir die positiewe terugvoer!

Pragtig en rustig.

Die ruim, netjiese huis bied baie goeie waarde vir wat jy betaal. En al die klein details soos genoeg hande- en opwasseep, snesies in badkamer ens. maak dit sommer net ekstra lekker en die pragtige uitsig op die groot stoep is 'n groot bonus.

Was baie aangenaam, maar was teleurgesteld dat ons 14:00 kon arriveer en daar aangekom het 16:00 en toe is hul nog besig om gras te sny en stoep skoon te maak.

Ons kon geen fout vind met die huis ens. nie. Baie rustig en ontspanne, maar voel net as jy arriveer na die tyd wat jy kan inboek wil jy nie nog mense hê wat daar besig is om skoon te maak nie. Daar is genoeg tyd om als reg te kry voor jou aankoms.

Was very pleasant, but was disappointed that we could arrive at 14:00 and got there at 16:00 and then they were still busy cutting grass and cleaning the porch.

We could find no fault with the house etc. not. Very peaceful and relaxed, but just feel that if you arrive after the time you can check in you don't want to have other people cleaning there. There is plenty of time to get everything ready before your arrival.

Jy is 100% korrek, wat jy ervaar het met aankoms is ongevraagd en ons is jammer dat jy dit moes verduur. Dit is nie normale praktyk nie, maar wees verseker ons het maatreëls ingestel om te verseker dat dit nie weer gebeur nie. Weereens dankie

Vrede - Werklik 'n besonderse plek.

'n Karoo wegkruip-paradys!

Fountain House is beslis nou bo-aan ons lys van gunsteling natuur-wegkruipplekke! Ons het vir 4 nagte gebly, en volgende keer gaan ons sommer vir 2 weke. Die onbeskryflike ligging in 'n weggesteekte vallei, omring deur die golwende Karoo-landskap, bring stilte en vrede wat hoekies van die siel binnedring waarvan mens nie eers bewus is nie; om van die ongelooflike sterrehemel vroeg-aand nie eers te praat nie - op die dekstoele onder die helderste Melkweg, 'n natuurlike waterval as agtergrondmusiek saam met die paddakoor - saligheid sonder woorde! Ons was gelukkig dat daar uitsonderlike goeie reëns geval het net 'n paar dae voor ons besoek - dus het die rivier onderkant die huis behoorlik gedreun; daar is lekker groot rotse langs die rivier vir 'n luilekker piekniek ook. Die huis self is groot, lig en uiters gerieflik. Catherine het ons ook 'n warm en hartlike Karoo-ontvangs gegee en seker gemaak ons weet waar alles is. Ons gaan kuier beslis sommer vinnig weer by hierdie uiters spesiale Karoo-hoekie!

A Karoo getaway paradise.

Fountain House is definitely at the top of our list of favorite nature hides! We stayed for 4 nights, and next time we went for 2 weeks. The indescribable location in a hidden valley, surrounded by the rolling Karoo landscape, brings silence and peace that enters corners of the soul one is not even aware of; not to mention the incredible starry sky early evening - on the deck chairs under the brightest Milky Way, a natural waterfall as background music with the toadstool - bliss without words! We were fortunate that there were exceptionally good rains just a few days before we visited - so the river underneath the house had been draining properly; There are nice big rocks next to the river for a lazy picnic too. The house itself is large, light and extremely comfortable. Catherine also gave us a warm and warm Karoo reception and made sure we know where everything is. We will definitely visit this very special Karoo corner soon!

Wonderlik, gasvry en ‘n hemelse wegbreek van die stad.

Winky is ‘n wonderlike gasvrou. Die huis is ruim en het als wat mens nodig het. Daar is lugverkoeling in die sitkamer en die kamers het waaiers, so die hitte kan bietjie erg raak as mens slaap. Pragtige uitsig vanaf die stoep en lekker wandelroetes met koedoes en beeste om die kinders te vermaak.

Wonderful, hospitable and a heavenly getaway from the city.

Winky is a wonderful host. The house is spacious and has what you need. There is air-conditioning in the lounge and the rooms have fans, so the heat can get a little worse when you sleep. Beautiful views from the veranda and nice hiking trails with kudu and cattle to entertain the kids.

Baie lekker "wegspring" slaapplek om jou in die gees van die vakansie te kry. Bietjie van die pad (N9) af, maar unieke, still karoo ervaring.

Ons het 'n oorslaapplek gesoek wat ons bietjie in die vakansiegees kon kry na die lang pad is Fountain house is die perfekte, "wegspring" slaapplek van Pretoria af op pad Plettenbergbaai toe. Dit is 'n bietjie (18km) van die pad (N9) af maar 'n unieke, still karoo ervaring. Braai 'n vleisie (wat jy in Graaf Reinett koop) terwyl jy op die huis se stoep sit so tussen die koppies, en jou kanse is goed om die koedoes te sien wat kom om water te drink.

Very nice "jumping off" place to sleep to get you in the spirit of the holidays. A little off the road (N9), but unique, still karoo experience.

We were looking for a place to sleep that could get us into the holiday spirit after the long road. Fountain house is the perfect, "jumping off" place to sleep from Pretoria on the way to Plettenberg Bay. It is a little (18km) from the road (N9) but a unique, still karoo experience. Grill a piece of meat (which you buy in Graaf Reinett) while sitting on the house's stoep between the cups, and your chances are good to see the kudus who come to drink water.

Rustigheid en voedsel vir die siel.

Wat 'n asemrowende plek op 'n asemrowende angorabok- en volstruisplaas. Op 'n koppie met 'n pragtige uitsig oor die kranse en langs 'n klein riviertjie. Het so lekker ontspan met die klanke van die natuur en 'n lekker braai.

Tranquility and food for the soul.

What a stunning place on a stunning angora goat and ostrich farm. On a hill with a beautiful view over the cliffs and next to a small river. Had such a good time relaxing with the sounds of nature and a nice braai.
