This location is a little piece of paradise located in the Karoo region of South Africa. Beautiful rooms, peace and quiet and some of the nicest and most accommodation people anywhere. The meerkats, fish eagles and grey herons were brilliant! Would be absolutely perfect if they got rid of the plastic bottles.

Amazing place, wonderful staff. And meerkats!
We enjoyed 2 nights here and were delighted with our stay. The exquisite setting and great accommodation were topped only by the friendly and helpful staff team who looked after us from the minute we checked in to the minute we checked out. Food in the restaurant was excellent. The meerkat safari is a must and with our own car we were able to return for breakfast after observing them for a couple of hours then head out to Cango Caves and onto drive the Swartberg Pass stopping in Prinz Albert for lunch and looping back home for a massage at the guest farm before dinner. An extraordinary day itinerary!

De Zeekoe Guest Farm is an exquisitely beautiful Klein-Karoo farm with magnificent views of the mountains. It has a very tranquil atmosphere and if it gets too hot there is a swimming pool to lounge in. Kristy and her staff are very friendly, warm and hospitable. My husband got COVID and Kristy offered us a free stay so that he could isolate in one place. We will for sure visit De Zeekoe again and we are also looking forward to explore their game lodge: Wildehond Game Reserve. I highly recommend to stay there if you are looking for accomodation in the Klein Karoo.

Nice place but bad Wifi service.
my Maine complaint was about the wifi, it was not working in my room or even in other areas. I told the receptionist that I'm here on business and I have to have access to good wifi, otherwise I have to leave your place and find another place with good wifi service. the lady assured me it will be fixed the next morning, but it was not fixed, then they said the installer is too busy.

not at all totally satisfactory
Stayed here before and liked it. This time, however, we were 'given' accommodation some 3 kilometers from the main building/restaurant; a drive along a totally dusty 'path'. Yes, good view - but still unsatisfactory as a whole. Reception was so-so by a young lady poorly trained or not at all trained. She knew nothing! Massage was good. Food/dinner at best so-so. Breakfast OK.
