Welcome to Adam se Uitspanning, where guests can experience a truly unique and enchanting stay in our lovingly restored ox wagons. Steeped in history and authenticity, these ox wagons, built at the dawn of the previous century, have been artfully transformed into one-of-a-kind self-catering accommodations that will leave a lasting impression.

Located in an Eco park in the Upper-Karoo, visitors can expect to be surrounded by vibrant wildlife, including springboks, antelope, predators, mammals, a plethora of bird species, and fascinating reptiles. Immerse yourself in the rich cultural heritage of the area as you explore prehistorical rock engravings, remnants of British soldiers, and the early farmers who once called this land home.

The vegetation in the area is perfectly adapted to the harsh climate of the Upper Karoo, showcasing an unparalleled beauty with its unique semi-desert plant life. Each wagon is equipped with a veranda and a stoep, extending the living space and providing a tranquil oasis for guests to relax and unwind. You'll have everything you need to create unforgettable memories under the Karoo's starry skies, with a comforting fire pit for braais and an anthill oven for a taste of tradition.

Adjacent to the wagon, you'll find a well-appointed bathroom featuring a hot shower and a convenient flush toilet. Every wagon has its own character, exuding charm from the intricately painted ladders and the history they carry. Some wagons offer private bathrooms, while others share a communal space with neighboring wagons.

Step back in time and transport yourself to an era where families traversed the Karoo veld in ox wagons, pausing during the scorching heat of the day to allow the oxen to drink and rest. Picture yourself making coffee on an open fire, hunting for meat, milking cows, and performing daily tasks by the warm glow of lamplight. Share meals, read from the Bible, sing Psalms, engage in handcrafts, storytelling, and make music together as you nurture the connections that truly matter.

To ensure the utmost comfort and convenience, limited solar power is available for lighting in the bathroom and on the stoep, as well as a gas cooker for your morning coffee. Although our amenities aim to immerse you in a historical experience, please note that modern luxuries such as air conditioners, fans, and hair dryers are not provided. Embrace the resilience of your ancestors and let your natural beauty shine through just as your great-grandmother did, donning her bolla and kappie.

If you can brave the scorching summer sun, bracing winters, dusty winds, flies, midgets, and mosquitoes, much like the explorers, transport drivers, trekboere, hunters, and Voortrekkers of the past, you will be rewarded with breathtaking golden sunrises, awe-inspiring sunsets, rugged kopjes and ridges, iron-stone formations, aromatic Karoo bossies, and a profound sense of tranquility that can only be found in the heart of nature.

Come experience the magic of Adam se Uitspanning, where time stands still and memories are made to last a lifetime.
