El lugar donde está situado entre montañas, la solitud, las rutas disponibles alrededor, las cenas y desayunos con el resto de huéspedes y con Marie, una anfitriona excepcional. Pasé dos días maravillosos y desconectado de todo. Volvería

"A bit further from Calitzdorp than we thought - our error. A beautiful place but needs some new energy"

5.0

Beautiful tranquil location.

The owner was w bit overbearing. We were the only 2 guests but she insisted on having dinner with us ….. and breakfast! This may have been a thing back in the day but we found it awkward to make conversation for the duration of the meal and again in the morning.

"We had a wonderful few days and left with great memories"

10.0

Wonderful setting in the mountains. Beautiful walks and a swimming dam. The room was fantastic- very spacious and comfortable. Food was excellent and Marie is a very gracious host. We just loved our time there and it will become one of our new favourite places

"Haven for peace and quietness under the Karoo skies"

9.0

Peace and quietness with the Swartberge as background- away from technology- dinner with other guests at one table and Erica was vey interesting and entertaining- Food was very well prepared and delicious- with more than enough- Breakfast on the veranda was an experience- bird feeder in front of terrace and interaction between different types of birds and their song cheered up our day. Lovely pool to relax. We were looking for a Karoo experience under the stars and we got it

Road to The Retreat was a challenge- fortunately no flat tyres. Unfortunately- due to circumstances not able to meet Marie- apparently she is a legend. We wish her a complete recovery.

"Marie as owner and host is remarkable in a facility within a very remote spot that can be considered"

8.0

Very intriguing location and remarkable job done by owner to run this facility. Very welcoming and you can feel the enthusiasm and love for the place from Marie

Dinner at long table with other guests risky as the guests could be strange.
