"Wow, what an amazing place. Absolutely everything was fantastic. Electric blankets and heaters in every room. Fireplaces with plenty of wood. Coffee machine and plunger. Nevermind Koos who fixed our puncture with a smile. I could spend a month here, so beautiful." - Lynette, Tripadvisor Review

Winter at Sneeuberg Nature Reserve offers more than just a view; it's a moment of clarity. As the still waters mirror the golden willows and rugged hills, it's easy to find space to pause and reflect amidst the quiet beauty of the reserve.

Sounds of the South African Shelduck in the Karoo. An interesting species that build their nests in sand dunes, Aardvark burrows, or rough ground! The South African Shelduck is one of only two bird species that have the prefix 'South African' in the name, as they are endemic to our country and can't be found anywhere else!

Stay in Karoo Luxury at Sneeuberg Nature Reserve

Situated in the heart of the Great Karoo, between Graaff-Reinet and Nieu Bethesda lies Sneeuberg Private Nature Reserve, a 14 500 hectare, unspoilt expanse. Sneeuberg provides an authentic yet luxurious Karoo experience consisting of four individual manor houses. This is our location on Google maps: https://goo.gl/maps/gFCdhsHX1p5zc3Xf7

Sneeuberg is a place where reconnecting to nature happens effortlessly. Days are spent exploring the reserve and returning for a hearty lunch on the patio, followed by a lazy siesta, lying flat with a pile of reading matter or cooling off in one of the swimming pools.

Evenings are spent around a fire, enjoying Karoo fare that you have either prepared by yourself in the fully equipped kitchens or delivered by the Sneeuberg staff.
