We recently embarked on a spontaneous snow trip to the Kouebokkeveld and decided to stay at Kaleo Guest Farm. It turned out to be an absolutely magical experience. Upon arriving at the Worldwide Cottage, we were greeted by a warm and cozy atmosphere, with all the heaters already on, creating the perfect refuge from the cold. The cottage itself was immaculately clean and incredibly cozy. After settling in, we made a fire, but quickly realized we didn't have enough wood. The guest farm supplied us with more wood, ensuring we could enjoy our evening by the fire without any worries. The amenities at the cottage were top-notch. The rooms were well-kept, and the water was hot, making for a comfortable stay. Waking up to a breathtaking winter wonderland was the highlight of our trip. The sight of the snow-covered landscape was simply enchanting. Although the electricity went off for a while, the staff kept us well-informed via WhatsApp. They communicated all necessary information about the power outage and provided updates on road closures due to the snow, which was incredibly helpful. Kaleo Guest Farm provided us with an unforgettable winter escape. The combination of excellent service, cozy accommodations, and stunning surroundings made our trip truly special. We highly recommend it for anyone looking to experience the beauty of the Kouebokkeveld in winter.

It was one of the most enjoyable stay ever

Some maintenance the host should look at
Broken rain gutters that bang all night from the wind
Rain Water flooding the unit through the windows and the front door
Loss of power on the last night stay until we vacated the next morning

Communication was excellent and fruendly

Will definitely recommend ♥️

A gem in the Kouebokkeveld .. cottages and surrounds are kept extremely neat. Furnishing are adequate with the bonus of air-conditioning as we were there when day temperatures were over 36°C. we thoroughly enjoyed the 'swemgat' natural swimming facilities and to fly-fish for nice bass in the main dam was a bonus. Overall very good value and a lovely sheep farm environment. Definitely recommended.

“Through Air B/B we have stayed at & explored some fantastic places and Kaleo Manor is amongst them. The Manor House is beautifully decorated and fully equipped to accommodate a family get together or a gathering of friends or just to enjoy as a couple like we did. It stands amongst an avenue of mature oaks surrounded by lush green grass. We arrived on a chilly afternoon but soon settled in with a fire going in the lounge and wall heaters in the bedrooms which set the scene for a cosy evening. We spent two nights at Kaleo Manor but wish we could of stayed for longer. We walked the 22 k. mountain bike ride and marvelled at the beautiful scenery. There is a ‘swim gat’ which although very inviting, we gave it a miss due to winter conditions. A mountain biker & hikers paradise. Thank you for giving us such a special two night experience - we will be back!”

On behalf of Cathy and myself we would like to thank you guys so much for a wonderful week at the Guest Farm Camping together with last nights stay in one of your Flatlets.
We have done a lot of camping over the years and stayed at many wonderful places. Kaleo Guest Farm is right up there as one of our favourites . All the facilities are really well thought out and practical and as cyclists the network of roads and paths are wonderful .
We will be back

Ons het as gesin kom kamp in die boskamp. Dit was 'n besonderse ervaring.

Ons kampplek was privaat en vreeslik netjies. Die plaas is ook baie mooi en baie gepas vir 'n wegbreek om te ontspan. Ons het die swemgat ook vreeslik geniet! Die kampplek was privaat en daar is meer as genoeg skaduwee. Die geriewe is meer as wat mens nodig het. Dit is regtig perfek om te kom en ontspan. Die swemgat is stapafstand en heerlik om in die middae af te koel. Die plaas is oral baie netjies en mooi. Julle kyk vreeslik mooi na julle plek. Dankie vir 'n baie lekker wegbreek. En ons sien julle definitief gou weer!

I stayed in one of the flatlets, it has such a beautiful view. The place was clean and I felt very comfortable. It comes with a bar fridge, microwave and kettle provided with cutlery and tea and coffee as well as a braai stand (everything one needs for a small getaway or overnight stay).

We really would like to extend our heartfelt appreciation to the entire team at Kaleo, from the ladies (i.e. Conohick and Alet), to all the men who assisted us in transporting us (my husband, two young children and myself) safely to our accommodation and getting our car out of the deep mud it was entrenched in on a neighbouring farm. Due to the heavy rain fall a few days prior, as well as a result of taking a wrong turn (due to our own fault), what we thought would have just required a quick u-turn, ended up becoming quite the challenge. It was not possible for us to get out of the mud and after a number of hours and various Kaleo staff members to the rescue, we were safely transported to our lodge at around 20h00 and welcomed to a warm chalet where the fire was glazing, hot soup and bread provided to warm us up and to then top it off some Old Brown Sherry.

To the entire team, you really went beyond “the call of duty” and we are ever so grateful for your kindness, help and extreme hospitality. We will certainly be back!!!!
THANK-YOU again!!!

My family and I enjoyed our 2 day camping trip in the Luxury campsites. The location is stunning and the peacocks entertained my two little ones. My teenager loved the WiFi and well my husband and I enjoyed just relaxing while the kids were busy. The bathrooms were very clean and all the staff was so friendly and helpful. I would recommend this place to anyone and can't wait to go back in February.

Congratulations to you and your team on a well run and maintained guest farm. Thank you for your hospitality and friendliness with which we were received and treated.

I will recommend Kaleo Guest farm.

We were received with great hospitality. We missed the turnoff, phoned and were given clear directions. Contact numbers at security to open the gate, and we were told about the Arts and Culture Festival which we attended. Commendable all round.

Die plaas is baie mooi en ruim, met baie plek vir verskillende aktiwiteite. Die huisie waarin ons gebly het is perfek geleë naby die dam, met baie mooi uitsigte. Die plek is lekker toegerus met 'n braai buite en binne, asook DStv wat lekker was vir die kinders in die aand. Die heel beste verrassing was toe ons die eerste aand gaan slaap het, en toe agterkom dat daar elektriese komberse op die beddens is - dit was baie koud, so dit was te heerlik om in 'n lekker warm bed in te klim. Ons sal definitief weer terug gaan soontoe.

Affordable and very neat self catering cottages. Also a beautiful wedding venue.

Die eenheid was baie netjies en ruim. Daar is baie spasie vir die kinders om buite te speel en eenhede is ver genoeg uit mekaar dat jy nie iemand ander steur nie. Die diens was goed, daar was tot op die Sondag iemand wat omgekom het om te hoor of ons nog hout kort (want dit word maar lekker koud) en het toe dadelik nog vir ons gebring soos wat ons nodig gehad het. Sal dit vir enige iemand aanbeveel!

Dear Kaleo Guest Farm, What an amazing experience we had on your farm. The mountains surroundings, farm lands, lake and picturesque beauty created the perfect over all experience for us. Our cottage was super clean and inviting, intimate and filled with classy character. Everything we needed was available to us making our stay easy and stress free. I cannot wait to return!! I am so happy we found this Gem of a place in Ceres. 5 stars from us!!”

Kaleo is die plek vir 'n rustige plaas ervaring.

Ons het 4 nagte oorgeslaap en in 'n flatlet gebly. As dit moontlik was sou ons definitief langer wou bly. Linne is kraakskoon en ons het die ekstras soos shampoo, handewasseep, ens. baie waardeer. Daar was ook die heerlikste beskuit, koffie, tee en melk. Hulle doen daardie bietjie ekstra wat hulle laat uitstaan.

Baie dankie vir ‘n heerlike, gemaklike en pragtige verblyf op Kaleo. Ons sal beslis hierdie Akkommodasie aanbeveel. Dit was ook baie lekker om die bergfiets paadjies te stap, die pragtige rotsformasies te sien, die paddas te hoor en die pragtige sterrehemel te bewonder.

Waarde vir geld verblyf weg van die gewoel, plek om weer met jouself kennis te maak.

Uitstekende ligging en baie goeie fasiliteite- vriendelike personeel wat individueel aandag gee waar nodig. Die chalets is goed toegerus met spesiale aandag aan items wat soms oorgesien word (goed uitgedink) en ons het niks ekstra nodig gehad nie. Uitstekende MTB- roetes wat goed gemerk is en deur asemrowende natuurskoon lei- van kort tot uitdagend- daar is iets vir almal. Sal beslis weer gaan.

Beter, beste, Kaleo! Spoggerige trou venue en verblyf, uitmuntende diens en vriendelike personeel wat besonders behulpsaam is! Ons troudag het seepglad verloop en ons en ons gaste was baie beïndruk met die verblyf.
