Rockwood Karkloof Farm House and Farm Cottage

The property is so beautifully tucked away, and from the moment we arrived, it felt like we'd escaped the noise and busyness of everyday life. Waking up to those peaceful views, with the mountains in the background and the dam right in front of us, was something special. The kind of place that makes you want to slow down, take it all in and just be. We even got to take a dip in the dam and have some fun on the paddleboat, which made the experience that much more memorable! I also loved how easy everything was. The directions were clear, collecting our keys from reception was seamless, and once we settled in, we had all the privacy in the world. Nobody bothered us, and we could just enjoy our little space. And can we talk about how well-equipped the cottage is? They've thought of everything! From the charcoal and firewood for our evening braai to an actual ice machine! The outdoor shower was such a lovely touch too, adding to that beautiful countryside feel If you're looking for a peaceful getaway with friends where you can switch off, unwind and make beautiful memories, this is your place. Karkloof Cottage, you were an absolute treat! We'd go back in a heartbeat. ❤️

It is beautifully appointed with magical views! Every need is catered for and you have a true midlands experience yet are 15 min from Howick! The farmhouse is so pretty and the setting over the water is breathtaking! This is truly a gem! Sue was so very kind and welcoming and surprised my Mom with flowers for her birthday which was such an incredibly kind gesture!

Nothing. It is spectacular and spotlessly clean!

Excellent house, stunning views. Well equipped and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. Highly recommended.

Sue and the cleaning ladies were excellent. And fireplace just perfect. Place is suitable for small family.

I absentmindedly booked this facility, thought I was booking main lodge. Minor things can be improved on, needed a bowl to make pancakes, main entrance door larch needs fixing, locking with key only in remote space isn't comforting. Outside shower in main bedroom doesn't work well when it's cold or there's other guest in main lodge. TV needs to be updated to smart TV - would work well with the excellent wifi they have. Bedding had stains - probably wine stains. Info about things to do around the area would also be great, there is hiking trail but zero info provided.
