The isolation of the place was exactly what I wanted. Jana checked in with me constantly without being in our space. The welcoming sherry, bread and cheese was a classy touch. The accommodation provided for all our needs.

I loved that the cottage was beautifully finished, pet-friendly, and tucked away in a dirt road 5km off the R62, which made it perfect for a quiet getaway. We enjoyed walking around the farm, passing sheep, donkeys, and a horse, and drove down to the Touw River for a stunning sunset walk. Our dog had an amazing time exploring, which made the stay even more special. The host was thoughtful and attentive, making sure every detail was taken care of for a comfortable visit.

Next time I am booking longer!

Zandfontein Bush Camp and Game Farm is an absolute hidden gem for anyone seeking peace, a connection with nature, and an authentic South African wilderness experience. From the very first moment, we felt warmly welcomed and completely at ease. The accommodation is lovingly designed – rustic, yet equipped with all the comfort one could need. We were especially impressed by the incredible silence at night, beneath a breathtaking starry sky – far away from light pollution and the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The beds were extremely comfortable, everything was spotlessly clean, and the décor matched the natural surroundings perfectly. The hosts were exceptionally friendly, helpful, and clearly passionate about making our stay unforgettable. They gave us wonderful tips for wildlife spotting on the property, and indeed, during our stay we were able to watch zebras and antelope through the camp’s own telescope. If you're looking for an immersive nature experience with privacy, this is the perfect place. We will definitely return – Zandfontein is a place where you can truly unwind and recharge. A heartfelt thank you to the van Rensburg family!

A rare chance to bask in the changing light of the karoo, the birds, the bossies and the baboon chorus in the distance. Spacious, comfortable, quirky, handsome and welcoming. We loved it.

The absolute tranquility. Excellent host and establishment very well equipped.
