Lekker rustig en mooi omgewing. Goeie diens.

Lee-jo is baie hulpvaardig. Vriendelik en baie professioneel. Ontbyt was baie lekker en goeie verskeidenheid. Die omgewing is baie mooi en goed vir fotografie. Die huisie is goed toegerus en die kaggel maak dit baie huislik en aangenaam.

Stunning!

Great location! I would definitely recommend! Waygu steaks are very pricey, but there are other meals, and self-catering is available! Great experience!

Wat 'n bederf!

Baie dankie vir 'n onvergeetlike kuier! Julle het ons so welkom laat voel en so bederf! Die plaas was wonderlik vir die kinders en die huisie so fraai en perfek ingerig. Die beste onbyt! Julle sal ons weer sien!

Beautiful place with friendly people!

We enjoyed our short stay very much. The house was very well equipped and cosy with lots of special little touches. After a long day the complimentary bottle of wine and bucket of ice we found in our fridge was very much appreciated. Martin and his wife are very friendly and hospitable and we LOVED their dogs and cat that came to visit. We will definitely stay at De Kombuys again and will recommend it highly to anyone looking for accommodation in Oudtshoorn!

Perfek vir die doel waarvoor ons dit gebruik het.

Het baie goed gewerk as oorslaapplek om die Kangogrotte en 'n volstruisplaas te besoek. Manina se slaaie en ontbyt was heerlik. Die yskas was net bietjie klein om alles in die snikhete Oudtshoorn koel te hou. 'n Lekker groot afdak voor die huisies, by die braaiplek en gemaklike buitestoele sal 'n groot aanwins wees vir die heerlike braai langs die wingerde.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Perfect for the purpose we used it for.

Worked very well as an overnight stop to visit the Kango Caves and an ostrich farm. Manina's salads and breakfast were delicious. The fridge was just a little small to keep everything cool in the sweltering Oudtshoorn. A nice large canopy in front of the houses, at the braai area and comfortable outdoor chairs will be a great asset for the delicious braai next to the vineyards.

Wingerd wegkruipertjie!

Ons het heerlik weggeraak tussen die wingerde en verskriklike mooi wêreld van die klein karoo by De Kombuys. Salig! Ek het lanklaas so lekker gerus en gelag en gekuier. Gaan vir seker dit in die winter ook uitprobeer!

Vine hide and seek!

We got wonderfully lost among the vineyards and terribly beautiful world of the little karoo at De Kombuys. Blessed! I haven't rested and laughed and visited so well in a long time. Definitely going to try it out in the winter too!

Wonderlike plek met uitnemende gasvryheid van Manina en Martin.

Die kamers is baie goed toegerus en kwaliteit koffie word voorsien. Dit is lekker stil omgewing op die plaas, maar naby genoeg aan ander aktiwiteite. Dit is 'n werkende plaas maar jy kan lekker daar rondloop en die hond "Seemeeu" stap graag saam. Die lekker vars lug laat mens sommer weer mens voel. As ek ooit weer in daardie omgewing gaan oorbly sal dit beslis boaan my lys wees om van te kies.

Wonderful place with excellent hospitality from Manina and Martin.

The rooms are very well equipped and quality coffee is provided. It's nice and quiet on the farm, but close enough to other activities. It is a working farm but you can enjoy walking around there and the dog "Seagull" likes to walk with you. The nice fresh air makes you feel human again. If I ever stay in that area again it will definitely be at the top of my list to choose from.

Hoop om gou weer terug te wees!

Perfekte plek om jou siel te herlaai. Stil, rustig en pragtige ligging met 'n uitsig oor die wingerde en berge - en jy hoef nie eers uit die bed te klim om dit te waardeer nie. Die eienaars se vriendelike gasvryheid het ons verwagtinge oortref en ons baie welkom laat voel. Probeer gerus hulle boerewors - dit mag dalk net die beste in die land wees. Ons sal beslis weer 'n draai daar maak wanneer ons weer Oudtshoorn besoek.

Hope to be back again soon!

Perfect place to recharge your soul. Quiet, peaceful and beautiful location with a view of the vineyards and mountains - and you don't even have to get out of bed to appreciate it. The owners' friendly hospitality exceeded our expectations and made us feel very welcome. Feel free to try their boerewors - it might just be the best in the country. We will definitely make a visit there again when we visit Oudtshoorn again.

Dit was presies net wat ons gesoek het.

Rustig, stil, weg van die gewoel en tog naby genoeg aan Oudtshoorn om die Klein Karoo Klassique Fees by te woon. Verblyf was gerieflik met heerlike matras en die dons duvet was 'n bonus. Karoo sterrekyk was ongelooflik! Ons was bevoorreg om besoek te ontvang van die vriendelike hond, kat en mak makou. Alles kos vir die siel.

It was exactly what we were looking for.

Peaceful, quiet, away from the hustle and bustle and yet close enough to Oudtshoorn to attend the Klein Karoo Klassique Fees. Stay was comfortable with lovely mattress and the down duvet was a bonus. Karoo stargazing was amazing! We were privileged to receive a visit from the friendly dog, cat and domestic macaw. Everything is food for the soul.
