Vacation rentals in Murraysburg

To see the workings of a multi-generational family farm, stay in a 170 year old house with beautiful high-quality furniture and fittings, and engage with a kind and gentle-natured farmer and his wife…was wonderful. A gentle desert rain arrived as we got there and set the tone for one of the most restful holidays we have ever had. The farmer’s 2 dogs popped in every now and again and made themselves part of the family. Richard and Anika were accommodating and quick to sort out anything we asked for. The house was spotlessly clean and filled with history from the 1800s. There was a sense of warmth with the people living / working on the farm as well. The drive to Nieu Bethesda was around 15min going up a gorgeous gentle pass which presented something new every time we travelled. The highlight of the stay was walking up the hill behind the house and sitting on the bench overlooking the farm, valley, and mountains at sunset. Thank you Richard and Anika (our kids say hi).

Albie was quick to respond to give directions. Emile was very helpful with the check-in and recommendations with restaurants. My first visit since 2015 and pleasantly surprised with the neatness of the town. We will stay over again in future.

A beautiful stone cottage with stunning views of the mountains and farm. We had a lovely stay and our dog loved running around on the farm. The cottage was fenced which was perfect to keep our dog safe. We will be back for sure.

Absolutely wonderful. Many thanks. Romeo was excellent at welcoming us and the house was very homely and spacious.

It's difficult to overstate how incredible this place is. The Rest Farm is an incredible oasis in the Karoo, and Shepherd's Cottage is a beautiful old farmhouse, comfortable, private, and peaceful with all the amenities - it would be easy to stay here a week or even a month. The sunsets, the walks, the birds, the river nearby. Paula and Ian's hospitality was second to none - their house is right nearby and they provided milk and bread from their farm, tea, and wonderful conversation. And a dip in the water reservoir behind their house. This place is an absolute treasure and we're hoping to come back as soon as we can.

Camderest House was a very welcome halfway stop on our way to Cape Town. It was definitely home away from home. Thank you for a very pleasant one night stay.

The Owls nest is located on the outskirts of the little town, has lovely surroundings. We have stayed at the location more than once & it’s always neat & tidy. The town has free roaming horses & sometimes goats which give it a lovely farm feel. The town is beautifully kept & neat, the locals have a lot of pride in their town.

Our holiday to CT started with a road trip and a beautiful intimate stay at xxxx farm. It’s 50km by dust road into the heart of Karoo (Western Cape). The drive in the mountains is an adventure for the family in itself. Then you arrive at the Farm. On arrival you met by a beaitiful young local family with 4 young kids, who immediately treat you like family. The cottage is on next to their main home which means you feel like a part of their generational Karoo family. The cottage is beautiful, 2 bedrooms, each curated with all your needs. The balcony under a grape vine is an absolute dream setting. The garden, a large area of green grass with all sorts of animals roaming from chickens, 2 giant tortoises lovely dogs and more… the perfect setting for a braai. The braai wood is like fire dust, crackels and burns into perfect ash for cooking… The mornings start with a roosting chicken who awakens you to a Karoo sunrise. The house and setting is perfect for kids and an active family
