A most nourishing experience, with the unfurling vast and varied mountainous landscape, to the silky smooth nutrient rich natural pool to immerse yourself in whilst watching the sun setting, followed by the outdoor fire to delve into conversations or simply star gaze, and then delight in the colourful display and immense flavours of the organic vegetables and fruit. The cottage appears to have been formed out of, and perfectly integrated with the natural surroundings. It offers all the comforts as well as quietude felt through its practical and creative simplicity. You feel completely at ease and peaceful here, as well as childlike wonder through the experience. The outdoor seating, hammock and pool invite you to fully relax and enjoy the expansive surroundings. The birds gift a morning symphony on sunrise and it’s wonderful to look upon and explore the orchids. There is also a trail to the top of a nearby hill. I was welcomed to further enjoy the studio, offering a perfect space for a yoga and meditation practice. Immense Gratitude.

Our 2 day stay at this off grid property was the highlight of our Karoo travels. Very friendly host. So inspirational and informative to see the productive permaculture gardens in this semi arid landscape. Would love to visit in summer to make use of the pool.

We had an absolutely fabulous stay at Numbi. A true gem and oasis in the Karoo. Loved the simplicity yet well thoughtfully built and decorated cottage using natural resources and upcycling man made materials. The views on the mountain, the abundant starlight and peaceful walks (and ofcourse my lovely companion:) made it an unforgettable stay. Definitely will be back and look forward to share and learn a bit more about the permaculture build veggie garden and “fruit forest”

This place is absolutely wonderful, and the hosts are incredibly welcoming! Ross gave us an insightful tour of their amazing permaculture farm, explaining with great care and clarity how everything works together in perfect harmony. We also had the chance to visit their beautifully crafted house, built with remarkable skill and deep respect for nature.Our guesthouse was cozy and comfortable, and the natural pool was stunningly beautiful with breathtaking views!We’re leaving this place inspired and full of great ideas to reflect on. I wholeheartedly recommend to visit them!

Not only is Numbi Valley an amazingly tranquil place to unwind in a natural infinity pool whilst admiring the stunning Swartberg sunset but it is also a place to learn about the huge benefits of permaculture, soil conservation and sustainable farming, building and food production. A truly unique stay with incredibly helpful, knowledgable and respectful hosts. 10/10 would definitely return if we ever return to SA which hopefully we will.
