Loved the warm hospitality
We always stop over and enjoy not only the hospitality but the night drive and the shy 5.

Tranquil Oasis
Located 8 km away from the N1, peace, tranquility and wide open spaces make this oasis a pleasure to visit.
The Homestead Rooms at New Holme Nature Lodge offer a blend of classic Karoo hospitality and modern comfort. Situated within the main lodge, these rooms provide a cozy retreat for travelers seeking a peaceful stopover or an extended stay in the heart of the Karoo.
Each room is thoughtfully furnished with either a queen-size bed or twin beds, complemented by en-suite bathrooms featuring showers. Amenities include air conditioning, electric blankets for chilly nights, and tea and coffee-making facilities. The lodge's communal areas, including a lounge with a fireplace and a dining room, offer spaces to relax and socialize. Guests can enjoy hearty Karoo cuisine at the on-site restaurant, with meals available by prior arrangement. The lodge also features a swimming pool, providing a refreshing escape during the warmer months.
Nestled within the expansive Karoo Gariep Nature Reserve, the Homestead Rooms at New Holme Nature Lodge are surrounded by the vast landscapes of the Upper Karoo. This 8,000-hectare reserve is home to diverse wildlife, including the only hippos in the Karoo. Guests can embark on guided night drives to spot the elusive 'Shy 5'—meerkat, aardvark, porcupine, aardwolf, and bat-eared fox—or enjoy birdwatching and nature walks during the day.
The lodge's location, 8 km off the N1 between Hanover and Colesberg, makes it a convenient halfway point between Cape Town and Johannesburg. The surrounding area offers opportunities for mountain biking, fishing, and exploring KhoiSan rock etchings. With its blend of natural beauty and cultural heritage, the Homestead Rooms provide an enriching Karoo experience.
