It was such a relaxed couple of days spent here getting away from the bustle of life. The staff were all excellent and completely multitasked! The food was really good and the units very comfortable. Highly recommended

We had one of our best hunting trips at Bellair Wild in June 2021. The communication, accommodation, professional hunters and game size and availability was all perfect! Great hospitality by the Roos family and we hope to hunt there again in the future!

Our two night stay at Rooiberg Wild was so special, we were treated like royalty, the food was outstanding and the beauty of the Karoo surprised us yet again, as always. Highly recommended

We had a great first evening around the boma. Firewood was provided, and the PH was very professional and friendly. There was a large variety of game available, and the farm and chalets are very well maintained.
