I usually stay here on the way to Cape Town and love the scenery, the karoo lamb and the peaceful atmosphere.There are some interesting fossils of dinosaurs still embedded in rock.

The Karoo is a unique biome and if you enjoy the spectacular peace and quiet of the semi desert with its abundance of specially adapted plants, animals and insects this is for you. Nice pool and good restaurant - and some ancient fossils on display.

The landscape is gorgeous and the accommodations are lovely - all have a great view of the buttes at sunset. Lions have been reintroduced into the park now.
