About Accommodation
Graaff-Reinet, the 4th oldest magisterial district in South Africa is called the "Gem of the Karoo". The town has long been justly renowned for its attractive and well-preserved historic homes and buildings, for which it has been widely acclaimed as one of the most visited towns in South Africa. Graaff-Reinet is virtually surrounded by the Camdeboo National Park, which is home to the world renowned Valley of Desolation.
The farm Waterval is about 32 kilometres outside Graaff-Reinet on the Erasmuskloof road; a winding gravel road slowly snaking along the Broederstroom river. It offers spectacular mountain views, but be warned: the terrain can be strenuous so drive slowly and rather enjoy the beautiful surrounds. We breed cattle, sheep and horses on Waterval. There’s also a fair amount of game roaming the open veld. Waterval is a paradise for children and anyone who loves to walk, climb mountains or do outdoor activities. The area is rich in fossils and anyone interested in the plants of the Karoo would find much to appreciate here. But mostly you come here for the tranquillity; the silence. It's time to unwind and relax. Come to Waterval to experience the Karoo at its best.
Featuring an outdoor pool, Waterval farmstay is a working farm offering pet-friendly self-catering cottages 33 km out of Graaff-Reinet, accessed by a gravel road. A free cable internet connection is available.
The cottages offer a patio with a garden and mountain view, a seating area, and a fully equipped kitchen with an oven and microwave. The private bathrooms have a shower.
A number of activities are possible in the area, such as horse riding, hiking and cycling.
Aberdeen is 92 km away. Free private parking is available on site.
