Your quiet corner of the valley

Off the grid.
Close to everything that matters.

Set among the red aloes at the foot of the Wabooms Mountains, Aloeron looks out over the Patatsfontein and Pietersfontein valleys. Settle onto the terrace and watch the afternoon light turn gold.

Warm timber, a spacious open-plan interior and wide views make this a restful hideaway. Your private stone hot tub, sheltered braai and outdoor shower bring the best of the Karoo right to your door.

Aloeron runs on solar power and gas, for an off-grid escape with thoughtful comforts.

Using your hot tub & braai

Keep the hot-tub water at least 2 cm above the base of the chimney and leave the lid partly open using the slot while the fire burns. The oven becomes very hot; do not touch it or use it to prepare food.

All braai utensils are provided at the built-in fireplace, and a potjie pot is available inside. Firestarters and firelighters are supplied; please bring additional supplies.
