We had a very nice stay in the guest house of the Ganora Farm. The landscape around is stunning and there is a lot to do.
Wanneer mens die plaas die eerste keer van die pad af sien, weet jy sommer dis 'n oase. Die ontvangs wa vriendelik, etes heerlike, kamers skoon en ruim en mooi ingerig. Die swembad is lekker. Ons was slegs een vol dag daar en het gevoel daar is baie meer om te ontdek. Dankie vir die praatjie oor fossiele!
Om by Ganora oor te bly laat 'n mens tuis voel. Dit is absoluut 'n oase in die dorre Karoo, met baie lekker fasiliteite, nog beter kos en die gasvryheid wat enige mens wat daar oornag sal laat tuis voel.
Baie aangename en vriendelike verblyf en die diens was uitstekend. Hester en haar span was baie akkommoderend. Lekker om met die geblêr van skape wakker te word, mens voel sommer op vakansie!
We loved the setting in the valley with the clean and welcoming swimming pool and the green grass, it was like an oasis. The rooms were very spacious, clean and comfortable with delightful antique furniture. Hester and her staff were very caring and helpful.
Rooms were comfortable and clean. Food great value. Fantastic scenery and great service.
Ganora bied baie aan en dit is eintlik 'n plek wat twee of meer dae se verblyf benodig om alles te kan ervaar. Aan die Steynbergs, dit is professionele diens wat julle bied en ons gaan definitief weer kuier om julle uiterste gasvryheid te kom ervaar.
Ons het baie lekker by Ganora Guest Farm & Excursion gebly. Die ligging van die plaas is verskriklik mooi, maar mens is nog steeds vinnig in Nieu-Bethesda. Tannie Hester is baie gasvry en hulpvaardig. Die fossiele is definitief ook 'n besoek werd!
Dit was 'n regte vreugde om deur JP op Ganora ontvang te word. Ons was altyd vriendelik behandel en die personeel is almal hoflik en professioneel. Om op 'n werkende plaas te wees en alles te ervaar is 'n voorreg.
'n Ware oase in die boendoe. Gruwelike paaie soontoe (van Nieu-Bethesda se kant af in elk geval), maar die moeite werd. Netjiese en gerieflike kamers (met verwarmers en warmkomberse nogal!); lekker kuierkos in 'n gerestoureerde huis uit die 1820 Setlaars se tyd, mens voel sommer tuis. Ons het net oorgebly om Nieu-Bethesda se Uilhuis van ons kluitklaplys af te tik; maar wil regtig terugkom vir die heerlike verblyf, staproetes, fossiele, Boesmantekeninge, bergfietsroetes ensovoorts.
Kinders het op ons aankoms geleentheid gehad om die lammertjies melk te gee. Was baie spesiaal! Het ook lekker geëet en in die swembad geswem. Die kamer was pragtig netjies. Almal by die plaas was vriendelik.
Awesome location with plenty attractions and sightseeing. I must do!
Dit skep 'n lekker plaasatmosfeer. Het die stilte en mooi sterrehemel en skoon lug geniet.
Mooiste plaas en ongelooglike gasvryheid! Het elke oomblik geniet.
Ganora is appealing as a destination that provides access to the area and is in close proximity to both Nieu Bethesda and Graaff-Reinet.
Just lovely! Beautiful setting, warm and friendly! We only stayed one night, but could easily have stayed a night or two extra to go walking and exploring!
Dis eintlik 'n sonde om net een nag oor te bly. Vriendelike ontvangs - heerlik gekuier op die plaas. Enige kind wat dinge wil ontdek se droom!
Our hosts, Hester, JP and Pat went out of their way to make us feel at home. The peace and quiet of the Karoo is really tangible at Ganora. The beautiful pool was also a very welcome relief. We will definitely advise people to visit Ganora and make use of your Travelground services.
Kamers baie ruim en gemaklik. Tuin pragtig. Omgewing is beeldskoon. Uitstekende oornagplek indien jy op reis is van die noorde na die Oos-Kaap.
Ganora was puik! Ek sal dit aanbeveel vir enige persoon wat 'n rustige oornagplek soek op pad Kaap toe. Ek sal graag langer wou bly om die staproetes op die plaas en die fossielepraatjie te kon ervaar. Ek hoop om weer daar tuis te kan gaan.
It is somewhere to stay longer, walk further, clear the mind & leave refreshed.
Well received - clean rooms - highly recommended for outdoor trips!
An excellent place.
Uitstekende oornagfasiliteite. Sal graag wil terugkeer om langer te bly op die plaas.
Heerlik stil en rustig. Hoop regtig ons kan weer daar oorbly.
Gasvry, vriendelik en gesellig. Heerlike aandete en ontbyt. Goed toegeruste verblyf. Die privaat fossielversameling moet gesien word - dis uitstekend deur die gasheer verduidelik. Ons wil weer teruggaan om daar te gaan stap en self fossiele in die veld te sien.
We came to see the Owl House and the Fossil Museum in particular, and found the host of Ganore Guest Farm had his own fossil collection and could give us an expert talk on the subject. Guests had dinner together and shared experiences and thoughts with the hostess who was so very ready to answer questions and be of help. We were offered a bigger room than we were first booked for and it was most comfortable and spacious with the largest bed we've ever slept in. Though a few kilometers out of town, the distance gave us perspective on this isolated hamlet we came to visit.
Goeie diens, gerieflike kamers. Dankie aan JP wat na donker nog bereid was om die museum oop te maak en 'n aanbieding oor die fosiele te doen.
We will definitely be coming back. Will definitely spend more time next time round. Baie dankie Hester, JP en Renier vir julle gasvryheid.
Ek sal weer trug kom.
