I like the ancient decor of the rooms. The bed was super confortable. The yogurt and muesli was very nice too. The little area is quiet and safe. The garden is so cute and Bella the cat is very endearing.

    A beautiful town with so much to explore.

    A beautiful town with so much to explore. For tourists s longer stay is advisable to see everything this lovely place has to offer. But it also offers perfect overnight stops when passing through. We recommend Barrydale Karoo Lodge. With an in-house pub and restaurant, you need nothing more.

    Barrydale is a small town with a lot of potential.

    Barrydale is a small town with a lot of potential. Wonderful artistic shops and drop in eateries. Amazing 2nd hand bookshop - new books also available - I couldn't leave!! Close to Warmwaterberg - a must for a visit, not far from Swellendam and Witsand - beautiful beach. Lovely walks in the hills around the village.

    It is lovely, safe and quiet.

    It is lovely, safe and quiet. Most of the restaurants close at 5pm, so don't expect to eat out at a nice restaurant. Fortunately the guest house we were staying at was spacious and comfortable, and so we made a plan to buy our own food and eat in. But seriously, going out to eat should be an option.

    Great little town when you turn off the main road and explore a little. Wonderful, friendly people in all the places we visited. Must visit the Karoo Art Hotel for a great meal, incredible staff and festive atmosphere.

    One of the highlights was the sense of peace and tranquillity we felt in this authentic ‘dorp’. The solitude of the town provided a serene backdrop, making our stay truly magical. Exploring the town and its surroundings was a delightful adventure. Quaint local shops, friendly faces, and the simplicity of life in the Karoo made our stay truly authentic. My list of mandatory places to visit would be Diesel and Crème for their out-of-this-world milkshakes, The House of Books (a paradise for any bibliophile), The Karoo Art Hotel for coffee or a gin and the gorgeous décor and coffee shop ‘Die Langhuis’ This gem on the border of the Karoo has the potential to become an even more coveted destination for those seeking a peaceful retreat in this unique South African landscape. In summary, our time in this small town was a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of big city life.

    Perfect location in the heart of Barrydale. Our hosts Uwe and Carel clearly love what they do and where they are and that is contagious. The combination of German precision and the relaxing life and feel in a quaint is pretty special. Time stood still for a while on our way to the KKNK. The coffee and home made pastry on the stoep made us feel so welcome and the recommendation of dinner at the Hotel was a very good one. Barrydale will definitely be our stop over again. Thank you!

    The facility was clean and comfortable. Lovely garden and lawn in the back flowing down to the river. Lots of shade and protection from wind. Nice restaurants all around as well as a hotel just down the street. Dinner at the MUD restaurant was top class. Owner gave complete instructions about the facility and also restaurants around town. I would happily got back to the Willows

    I can’t say enough good things about this gem of a place. The decor, attention to detail, and general vibe of the Karoo Moon House was incredible. It was a real shame we couldn’t stay longer - it would have been a perfect long weekend. We also really appreciated the little extras that were provided in the house. We would come back to Barrydale just to stay here!

    Couldn’t rate Sanbona any higher. The accommodation and facilities were fantastic, the hotel staff and rangers were incredibly friendly and attentive, and the food menus were always high quality with fresh ingredients. The overall ethos of the reserve is something you can really buy into. Hope to be back again next year!

    We are repeat visitors! This unique lodge offers excellent customer service, super friendly staff, and an owner-manager that actively engages with the guests. 5-star appointed rooms with carefully selected pieces of antique furniture create a unique and refreshing Karoo feel. This is the best accommodation in Barrydale!

    Such a charming cottage. It’s small - only suitable for a couple or close friends who are happy to share a bed (but from memory they do say this) but TOTALLY charming. Beautiful decor and a lovely swimming pool (that you share with the hosts) and a perfect base to explore Barrydale.

    We had a lovely quiet family room for 3 which was perfect for us. We had a quick dip in the heated outdoor hot tub which was fun and an exquisite dinner at Mez karoo kitchen in Barrydale. Had a good sleep and were greeted by a friendly cat and dog in the morning.

    Extremely well located on route in the main street, and within easy walking distance of the famous Barrydale restaurants and bric-a-brac shops. The Lodge has recently been taken over, and refurbished, and the owners are both delightful. A great nights rest
