Drifters Karoo Lodge

 
 

Description

Situated 45 km from Graaff-Reinet, not far from the Valley of Desolation in the Karoo, this remote lodge provides wonderful opportunities to explore the unique fauna and flora that this area has to offer.

The property has been painstakingly rehabilitated and now offers one of the most interesting and diverse nature reserves in the region. Game on the property includes the rare Cape Mountain zebra, Black wildebeest and beautiful bontebok.

Accommodation is provided in comfortable chalets crafted from local stone, each with its own fireplace, bathroom and unbelievable desert vista views. A communal living area has been created within the original farmhouse, which dates back to the early settlers, and houses a cosy pub, dining area and lounge.

Karoo trip
Judi Simonds, South Africa
19 August 2010
Very nice chalets and lodge. Lovely location. We were driving a Land Rover but advise that a warning of 4x4 only should be on the web site.
Lovely farm
Philippa Lampert, South Africa

A real find, lovely cottage, very well equipped with the extra, unexpected, edge over the standard self catering cottage - well-stocked fruit bowl, chocs, liquid hand soap. Lovely farm, we will stay for longer next time.
Breathtaking.
Anni Snyman, South Africa

It's a really beautiful place - springbok grazing around the chalets.
Stars were awesome.
Debby Hughes, South Africa

Had a wonderful overnight stay. Cottage was well equipped and clean. The views and the silence was to die for.
Wonderful !

The karoo has its own magic, and Drifters really contributed to our lovely exploration of the area. The accommodation is comfortable with beautiful chalets. The spingbok, eland and bontebok grazes 80 m away, the stars can be touched, and the tranquility allows for the soul to catch up with the body again. The hosts and guides were very helpful, professional and friendly, yet did not interfere. The Drifters Karoo Lodge is highly recommendable!! Cornel Schoombee & family
