What a delightful stay! The home-cooked meals were incredible, especially the Karoo lamb chops, and the cozy twin room provided a wonderful night’s rest. However, a luggage stand would have been helpful.

The lovely garden view from my spacious Deluxe Double Room really enhanced my stay, offering a tranquil escape. The common areas were accessible and thoughtfully designed, making it easy for seniors like me to navigate.

A few more seating options in the garden would help.

Nieu Bethesda is a hidden gem. The Ibis Lounge exceeded my expectations. My Deluxe Double Room felt spacious. Had sliding doors leading to a patio and pool, perfect for a hot day. The garden view added a peaceful touch. Barbara's warm welcome made me feel right at home. Dinner at Stirling's was a highlight, with the six-course Karoo experience leaving a lasting impression. My only wish was for more seating in the garden. it would have enhanced the outdoor experience. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would come back in a heartbeat.

Staying at this cozy spot was a delight for our entire family, especially our grandchild. The meals were a highlight, with Barbara's cooking truly shining. The Karoo Experience tasting menu was both unique and incredibly delicious, making every meal a memorable occasion.

In my wife’s opinion, a play area for kids would be great.

The outdoor dining area was just 💖 amazing! We enjoyed scrumptious dinners under the stars. The cozy bathroom was a bit of a struggle with the sliding door, though.

The location offers a relaxed atmosphere, while the six-course Karoo food experience was a culinary highlight, showcasing local ingredients. The spacious Deluxe Double Room included a nice sliding door to a patio with access to a pool, perfect for cooling off on a hot day. However, a few more seating options in the garden would enhance outdoor comfort, and some areas feel a bit dated. Overall, the hospitality from Barbara and the quality of meals are strong points.

Our stay in this charming old farmhouse was lovely! We enjoyed the refreshing pool, which was a hit with my adult kids. Barbara’s Karoo Experience tasting menu was delightful and unique, especially the honey from their on-site apiary. Highly recommend it!

My kids wished for more games or entertainment options for downtime.

We had a fantastic stay! The dinner was absolutely delightful, especially the lamb cutlets, and the breakfast was a feast with homemade muesli. However, I wish there were a small table in the room for our things.

A Tranquil Getaway with Heart

Our one-night stay felt rejuvenating! The intimate dining experience featured a delightful tasting menu showcasing local ingredients. Barbara's warm hospitality made us feel right at home. Be sure to ask about the unique foraged items in the dishes. Perfect for couples seeking a Karoo escape!
