We stopped over for a night between Cape Town and Joburg. Positives: The rooms are spacious and well appointed. I'd say very suitable for a family breaking a trip. Pretty setting Pool was most welcome given the hot weather Negatives The early morning shower next door created quite a bit of noise (popping noise through the drain) which woke us up The cooked dinner we ordered wasn't great. They sell braai packs though, so maybe better to go with that. Overall a good start and good value.

If I could give 10000 stars I would. Beautiful guest farm experience. Very rich history. Kind attentive hosts. Our host went an extra mile for us. From special diet, to asking for mountain bikes to view sunset in the morning. We spotted buffalos, springboks, antelopes and a few wildebeests on the farm. Good food, we arrived 2 hours after check in time closed and we were welcomed with so much warmth. We decided to extend our stay from overnight to 2 nights. It was worth it. Value for money. Vintage style that made us travel to before our own birth. Keep it up guys! Quick ride to Big hole & Kimberly town, no traffic, 20 min drive. We had our own intimate braai for two one evening with very fresh lamb meat, they are so guest ready they provide everything, firewood, fire lighter, meat all at very low prices.

After a fantastic stay at Langberg Guest Farm in September, we were excited to book the same room (Kraal 6) again via Lekkeslaap for our return from holiday. The room we booked included self-catering facilities, perfect for a relaxing braai after a long day on the road. Unfortunately, our experience this time was deeply disappointing. On arrival, we were placed in a completely different room (Stal 1) with none of the facilities we had specifically chosen. When we raised this issue with reception, we were met with a curt response: all other rooms were full, and nothing could be done. To make matters worse, later that night, a group attending a bachelor party mistakenly and loudly knocked on our door, disturbing our rest. This is the last thing you want when you're exhausted from travel and need to leave early the next morning. Regrettably, this experience left us feeling undervalued as returning guests. We won’t be staying at Langberg Guest Farm again.

Horrible communication after a booking was received and confirmed via the Booking.com app. They the cancelled the booking without changing the status of the Booking on Booking.com. Only bothered to send an in-app message knowing full well that I'm likely on the road and driving all day and not likely to check the app. 6 hours of driving to arrive at 6pm only to have to scramble for something to stay at in the dark with most accomodation fully booked.
