48 guests' feedbackDelicious, unspoiled Karoo farm accommodation. Friendly donkeys. And loving Keeterkat may not bother animal lovers.
One of the better overnight stops on N9.
What a gem! Quiet, beautiful view, perfectly clean and tastefully decorated. Everything one needs is provided. Linen is crisp. We would love to stay here again. Thank you very much.
We really enjoyed it, location is good and accommodation is great.
Kareelaagte was an incredible surprise after a long day on the road! The location is as if you have landed inside a landscape painting! Hospitality is second to none and the unit was very clean and very well equipped - everything one needs. Will definitely visit again.
Beautiful place, clean, tidy with the most beautiful view.
Place where you can spend extra day to charge batteries.
Beautiful farm, lovely stay and received with fresh muffins and biscuits. Love the donkeys we got to feed. We will go again.
This must be the best farm stay in the Karoo! It offers an authentic experience of a Karoo sheep farm. There are beautiful views and hikes on the farm. We enjoyed the peace and meeting the horses and donkeys. The hosts are thoughtful and generous, and went out of their way to make us happy.
Had a wonderful sleep, the unit is very well equipped, good quality beds/mattresses, the kitchen is well equipped. The silence and the view from the unit are fantastic. Thanks also to the hostess for the delicious muffins and biscuits.
Wonderful location and very nice view. The children loved being able to give the lamb's milk. Would definitely recommend the stay.
Excellent overnight place. Most beautiful scenery. Welcome reception with the most delicious muffins.
It was comfortable, peaceful, and had all the facilities of home. The sunrise was beautiful! We braaied and waited for the stars to emerge before retiring. What a sight!
Very nice stay. There was everything we could need.
Wonderful overnight place. Ina and Francois are warm, engaging, friendly and hospitable. Best overnight stay we have ever had, and will definitely visit them again!
We prefer self-catering farm accommodation. And the place ticks all the boxes. We slept and stayed wonderfully. The cottages are very nicely furnished, luxurious and modern finishes, nothing neglected. Good linen. Clean, tidy, everything needed and more. Beautiful view of mountains and beautiful sunrise. The place is a new gem. Ina is a hostess-thousand, friendly and helpful.
Beautiful accommodation with a very pleasant hostess. Everything was very neat and of high quality, will definitely stay here again.
Beautiful accommodation, peaceful surroundings.
Simply an amazing overnight experience.
We had a great time. The rooms are very neat, comfortable with a great view over the plain and on the Lootsberg.
Dirt road in very good condition. Easy to reach the cottage, peaceful and nice to sleep over.
We had a wonderful stay at Kareelaagte Guest Farm. We loved the cottage, the view, and the location, but best of all was the hospitality and warm welcome of the hosts starting with homemade muffins on arrival, as well as sorting us out with last-minute braai/barbecue options. We highly recommend Kareelaagte Guest Farm and will definitely be back!
Such a warm welcome with fresh muffins and everything we needed. It was quite cold while we were there, but there was a gas heater for us to use. The unit is off-grid with solar power too, which makes it so much easier to just sit back and relax. The views are amazing, and you have plenty of privacy. The unit is beautifully decorated and very inviting and homely. It’s also very clean! I definitely recommend it.
Neat facilities that are beautiful, clean and practical. The most beautiful Karoo sunrise together with fresh muffins. What a treat.
We had a great time. Thank you very much.
We do it again! Good location and very neat facilities.
Loved the scenery and sunrise. The welcome muffins were delicious.
The Karoo is special. The facilities were good. Nice clean and practical. More than necessary.
The short stretch of dirt road is in excellent condition.
Aunt Ina really spoiled us and her units are neat, clean and beautiful with everything you need! Thanks ma'am! We hope to see aunty again soon!
Exceptional decor and setting. Thanks for fresh bread etc. A bit difficult to find the way also because signal is bad.
Very neat unit and a beautiful view. Will definitely stay there again on future trips. Absolutely worth it. Ina the hostess was also very friendly and helpful.
We want to thank our host Ina for a wonderful stay. We thoroughly enjoyed it. The unit was beautiful and our doggie loved meeting all the animals. The night sky was breathtaking. ️We had a restful sleep and a wonderful warm shower. Thank you for your hospitality!
Neat, clean, breathtaking view. Beautiful place will go there again for sure. Ina is a really caring person who makes sure her guests are happy and satisfied. Thank you Ina.
Even if it was only for one night, it was wonderful to experience the silence and nature. We were very lucky that the other unit was not occupied. The view is beautiful and we were lucky to have a cloudless night to see the stars clearly. The interior decoration is beautiful, everything was clean and tidy and the nice patio and braai facilities are excellent. We went for a run in the morning and there are many hills to climb when you have more time. Sharing it with a special person is first prize. I will for sure stay at Kareelaagte again when there is an opportunity. Ina and Francois, thank you for your hospitality.
Arrived in the rain, easily unpacked, fried, had gas plates along with the Eskom crisis! Everything was in place, clean and tidy!
We live in Switzerland and have been coming to South Africa regularly for many years. In search of other interesting places, we found this newly opened pearl via the website. We stayed here for 2 nights. The huge farm is only 5 km away from the main road. Ina offered us a big farm tour and gave us the information and answered the questions. It was exactly what we were looking for. We will be back.
Accommodation was great as advertised.
Next time we will stay longer. High quality finish. Attention to detail. Spacious accommodation. 7 km from N9.
It's all in the detail! You arrive with a warm welcome, and freshly baked muffins awaiting when you enter your place, such attention to detail which I haven't seen at other properties. There's also a guest book to leave a message on, which really personalises your stay. The lambs are super cute, first not sure what you are doing there but then when one comes to you the rest flock towards you, they were just adorable.
Everything was 100%. The linen, the muffins, the fresh flowers, the attention to detail.
Nice and cozy, loved it.
This is the most peaceful, the most beautiful, the most welcoming place we have stayed in a long time. You won't regret staying here. The place is stunning and the farm is beautiful. Ina and her husband are amazing hosts. They are lovely people and we can't wait to stay here again.
We decided to stay only one night on our way back to Gauteng. Will stay a little longer next time as we want to enjoy the hiking trails and viewpoints. We are cyclists and although it was raining when we arrived, we did pedal a short distance on the dirt road. The place is extremely neat. Decor is tasteful and stylish and layout is simple and up-to-date. Bedding is fresh and good quality (to make you sleep better!). Ina is a great hostess and likes to help where she can with advice and makes an effort to make you feel at home and welcome. Fresh flowers throughout the house, the most delicious freshly baked muffins and home-baked rusks made us feel welcome as soon as we walked in. Lovely outdoor barbecue place so that we could throw our meat on the coals and experience the Karo tranquility.
We do a lot of travelling and have to say that Kareelaagte will now be on our list of preferred places. We loved sitting on the veranda with the lovely view. The unit is exceptionally well decorated and planned. Most important for travellers: the bed and bedding is top quality. Good luck with your guesthouse, Ina!
Everything about the place just wants us to return. Blissfully unaware of the world outside while visiting here. Highly recommended!
True Karoo hospitality with amazing people and views. You will see us again and again. PS: the interaction with the farm animals simply amazing. Ina and Francois are absolutely the most perfect hosts. To be recommended to anyone.
Best overnight stay we have ever experienced. Beautiful Karoon nights on the peaceful sheep farm. Ina is an outstanding hostess and has created a beautiful retreat. We highly recommend Kareelaagte.
