Spacious, comfortable cottage with excellent braai facilities. The stoep is very deep and the cool shade was very welcome on this hot February day.

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!

Touwsberg Nature Reserve is a higgen gem. The cottage has a beautiful view and we'll defintely return.

Location with 360 views and ‘away from it all’. Our hosts were readily available, extremely helpful and fun. The little pool was appreciated as were the fans in the bedrooms.

Loved being able to relax and recharge at this awesome property while being in the Karoo desert. The house was amazing with everything I needed, from the kitchen to the bathroom and the large living area. The little touches all make a difference to the feel of the place - the large spacious lounge, the beautiful wooden counter tops in the kitchen and the stone floor in the bathroom shower - loved it. In particular I loved the skylight that allowed me to lie in bed and see the stars at the same time! The air feels so clear there. Added bonus was having the dam in front of the house with a small water view, and having the remnants of the old railway station across the road gave me sense of history of the area.

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