KAROO FARM ACCOMMODATION

  — PET FRIENDLY —
Karoo Life of a past era has been comfortably and tastefully resurrected in this beautiful original guest farm homestead.

 

BLOEMHOF KAROO is a historic home on an authentic Karoo guest farm, once owned and loved by Professor Christiaan Barnard. The Homestead rests graciously in an oasis amongst kopjes on a working guest farm in the Malaria free, Northern Cape, Great Karoo. Located less than 5km from the N1, Bloemhof Karoo Farm Accommodation provides an accessible farm-style getaway for both one-night stops, and longer stays.

Guests can experience the vastness of this large Karoo Private Game Reserve where more than 2000 head of antelope roam freely. Scenic game drives can be booked spontaneously while there are also other popular activities such as hiking and cycling.

Bloemhof Karoo offers a fully catered country house experience on a working guest farm in the Karoo. We are proud of our Farm Kitchen where local delicacies and wonderful treats are prepared and served with genteel Karoo hospitality.

What our Guests Say

My little family and I spent four nights at the beautiful Bloemhof farmhouse, and it was an unforgettable experience. It was the perfect place for my almost four-year-old, who woke up to chickens, geese, sheep, and donkeys, and spent her mornings riding her bike before we enjoyed a delicious warm breakfast. The farm-baked crunchies were irresistible. 

Our stay included sunset drinks, scenic runs on the game farm, workouts with a cold plunge, a cacti walk, and even a foefie slide. Surrounded by nature, we felt a serene peace in the air. The Karoo’s unspoken beauty truly shines at Bloemhof. 

The staff were incredibly sweet and friendly, helping me with my five-month-old so I could catch a break. We left with heavy hearts but felt well-rested and eager to return. It’s totally worth the drive. Thank you so much for having us!

What Our Guests Say...

“An absolute diamond in the Karoo. Experience true Karoo hospitality, beautiful sunrise, even welcomed by a fox in the road. Property is super clean and amenities are amazing, love the fact that you have separate dining rooms; old wooden floors give the house an authentic feel. Can’t wait to come back!”

“Completely wonderful. Bloemhof is a special place to embrace and experience this part of the Karoo. Endless hiking, running, or cycling across this unique environment. Pure air, no light pollution, amazing night skies; it’s restorative and inspiring. The staff at Bloemhof are amazing. The food is excellent. We’ve stayed twice and will return.”
