Guests' Comments (from Safari.com)

It was a wonderful and peaceful venue, a break away in the heart of the Little Karoo. The host was very friendly and kind without being obtrusive. The scenery and views from Tonnelkop to the surrounding landscape was very idyllic, with mountains, fields of green and the most breathtaking sunrises and sunsets. One can sit on the porch and enjoy the sunsets with a glass of wine. The unit inside had all the necessities that a home away from home can provide, the bedrooms were adequately furnished. Lovely communal pool and braai are, safe and secure parking. My friend and I really enjoyed our stay at Tonnelkop and would recommend it to anyone who wants a real break away holiday venue.
