This past weekend we spent a rather chilly night in the Karoo, celebrating a friends 40th Birthday. It has been quite a while since we have travelled along the N1 in that direction, as we usually frequent the Garden Route{along the N2} or the West Coast for family holidays, so this was indeed a bit of an adventure!
The drive along the N2 after the Huguenot tunnel was a pretty site with all the vines wearing their winter shades of burnt orange and red. There was also snow on some of the surrounding mountains, which was a stunning picture to behold.
We stayed in the rather electic Karoo 1 Hotel Village, which is located just outside De Doorns on a 2000 ha farm on the edge of the Hex River Valley. The accommodation is in the traditional, Cape Dutch Karoo style and the village has its own wedding chapel, a licensed restaurant and conference facilities. We found the accommodation comfortable, the showers hot {very important in such cold weather!} and the staff friendly and helpful.
So if you are planning a trip up North any time soon the Karoo 1 Hotel Village is well worth a visit.
