About this place
It's a magical place called Sutherland where you can restore your soul and enjoy the crisp clean air. Explore this unique region in South Africa far away from city life using the self-catering Rooikloof Guest Farm accommodation as your holiday base or point of departure. This is the ideal place to kick off your shoes and simply relax on vacation. Alternatively one can explore the farm hiking at your leisure or enjoy a scenic picnic in the shade of a rare tree near one of the fresh water springs. Come home each night to a log fire and watch in amazement as a galaxy of stars unfolds right before you. We offer a choice of fully furnished country houses for the connoisseur. Each house has its own unique features from original wooden floor boards, old thick walls, cast iron ovens to lofts and reed ceilings. Huis Harpuis, Renosterbos Cottage and Spekbossie are tastefully decorated with antique furniture, pictures, plenty of warm bedding and inviting fire places. Koesnaatjie 1 & 2 offer rustic stopover lodgings that reflect the simplicity of true Karoo living.

Sutherland is South Africa's coldest town and home to the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT), one of the world's great optical telescopes. Located on the high Roggeveld plateau in the Northern Cape, it offers exceptional stargazing, Karoo hospitality, and dramatic landscapes. Winter brings snow to this remote hamlet, while year-round visitors come for the clear dark skies and peaceful isolation.
