  • Description
  • Facilities
Blokhouse was built in 1901 and housed 30 soldiers to protect the bridge during the Anglo Boer War. The Blockhouse is a National Monument situated on the farm.

Geelbeksbrug is also a working olive farm and guests can enjoy awesome stargazing.
The owner will take you on Geological and Paleontological walking tours where you can see how erosion exposed ancient rock formations.

37 species of birds have been ringed, watch birds, swim in the dam or just enjoy the nature of the karoo.

Very neat, spacious and comfortable. The provision of the basic utensils for self-catering is adequate. I love the tranquillity of the vicinity.

My initial impression was favourable despite the location being close to noisy highway and train track. The old house was charming...the wife of the owner not. She took it upon herself to reprimand and threaten my 6 year old for something she did not have all the facts of. I feel that her behaviour was rude and unprofessional. This incident coloured my view of our stay.. I would not stay at the Blokhuis with children. They are not tolerant of kids and there are safety issues they need to address.

Really enjoyed my stay, will book again when passing through. Many thanks.

We enjoyed our stay - the place was spotlessly clean. The only suggestion we can make to improve the accommodation is that it would be nice if there was a heater or fire grate in the house. The kitchen does have a hearth but no wood or coal was available to light a fire as it was a cold evening.
