Description
Corbelled houses appear only in the Karoo in an attractive small area. These were the first houses built by the Voortrekkers in the early 1800’s.

At Osfontein, guests will have the experience of staying in one of these rebuilt houses and, as it is built entirely of stone with a well-insulated roof, the house is warm in winter and nice and cool in summer. The house has four rooms, one of which is furnished with a double bed and the other with two single beds. The bathroom is equipped with a washbasin, a flushing toilet and a shower. Hot water is also available.

The house is self-catering with the necessary cutlery, bedding and towels being provided. There is an electric stove and a fridge with a freezer. Candles are used for lighting so as not to spoil the atmosphere of this unique experience. The original fireplace with a thick yellow wooden beam can also be found inside and now serves as a barbecue area. Fires can also be made outside and wood can be bought at the farmhouse for R20.

If anything is needed, the farmhouse is within walking distance and also has a swimming pool where guests can cool off. With all the wide open spaces guests can go for long walks or mountain biking.

Sitting outside, guests will see the incredible star-filled sky at night which adds to the unique experience of staying in the Karoo.

Osfontein Corbelled Guest House in Carnarvon Reviewed by Ruth Engelbrecht, South Africa on . Osfontein Karoo We had a wonderful and fun stay The peaceful Karoo surroundings were good for our souls. Starfilled skies. Friendly hosts. Beautiful sunsets and long walks with the two special dogs who guarded us day and night. But best of all were the "skaaptjops" which we purchased from the farm. Thank you for a wonderful stay.<div>Margrit and Gerhard, Hubert and Ruth</div>
