- Riana South Africa“Loved the peace and quiet, the crisp fresh air and the friendly hospitality.”
- Jane South Africa“It was exactly as described. You could be miles from anyone when in fact you are only 10 mins into the village centre. Having a power bank was a nice touch to an off grid property.”

Middelfontein Farm is 1.3km outside of town on the Calvinia Road. Lovely walking trails as well as mountain bike trails to enjoy. We have ribbucks, meerkatte, porcupines and even an aardvark called Jughead on the farm. Fontein & Fonteintjie have electricity. These two cottages have wall panels, electrical blankets and TV's. Saffraan cottage is a beautiful stone cottage that works with gas appliances only (so please note no TV, electrical blankets - it does have winter sheets, gas hob, gas fridge, gas geyser & warm water bottles. Saffraan is a unique experience for the romantic at heart and people who enjoy making fire! All three cottages are geared for self catering. Breakfast not included in your rate - there are 4 restaurants in town to make breakfast, lunch & dinner reservations. I will send you all the contact numbers.
To check in: Come to Kambro Kind Guest House in the main street, next to the police station. I stay on premises. Here I will give you the keys and directions to Middelfontein Farm which is only 1km away.
Middelfontein Farm was my grandfather's farm that we bought back in 2010! I moved to Sutherland in December 2012. My parents are Jurg & Rita Wagener (who started Kambro Kind in 2001) They now stay at Sterland where my father still does his private stargazing shows.
From the farm, it is a 2 minute drive to get into town. There are 4 restaurants in town. Also 3 convenience stores, 2 bottles stores and 2 x petrol stations. The Observatory is 15km outside of town on the Fraserburg Road. Jurg's stargazing is 1km outside of town on the Matjiesfontein Road (R354).
